deepin seems to have potential

2018-07-14 20:47:01 UTC  

Neither does KDE, tbh

2018-07-14 20:47:11 UTC  

It's like Windows XP with a skin

2018-07-14 20:47:19 UTC  

I gave deepin a test drive on my arch box but it installed too much extraneous shit that interfered with my non-deepin usage

2018-07-14 20:47:30 UTC  

will install deepin linux on one of my old laptops sometime soon to test out

2018-07-14 20:47:55 UTC  

I honestly believe the new breed of DE's like Pantheon, Budgie, Deepin are all better options for the future

2018-07-14 20:48:14 UTC  

because they get the fuck out of the way and let you worry less about something as stupid as a DE

2018-07-14 20:48:18 UTC  

I am convinced that the GNOME devs are former mac users who are frustrated that Linux is so complicated to use

2018-07-14 20:48:29 UTC  

agreed on Budgie

2018-07-14 20:48:35 UTC  

Solus is a great project

2018-07-14 20:48:47 UTC  

they just need more manpower for their repos

2018-07-14 20:49:07 UTC  

wish I had a big enough brain to understand linux

2018-07-14 20:49:09 UTC  

I am fine going on IRC to bug the devs about needed updates but most users should not have to do that

2018-07-14 20:49:32 UTC  

Ok the easiest way to explain Linux is it's a free collection of software needed to run a computer

2018-07-14 20:49:41 UTC  

watching this hichhicker dude and needed to take this one out of context https://clips.twitch.tv/GeniusSuccessfulHeronKlappa

2018-07-14 20:49:45 UTC  

A desktop environment is just different "GUI's"

2018-07-14 20:50:05 UTC  

And people get caught up in that instead of making actually useful software to run in the gui

2018-07-14 20:50:32 UTC  

linux is a software ecosystem with so many choices that you'll never feel entirely confident that you picked the right one and will spend the rest of your life obsessing over whether or not you have the ideal user experience

@addis.ababa >top tier performance for 5 years

2018-07-14 20:50:43 UTC  

what a joke

2018-07-14 20:51:02 UTC  

is this jeopadry

2018-07-14 20:51:02 UTC  

and you'll never know for sure because most of the tools take years of habituation to use optimally (keyboard interfaces with manual configuration) and you've already picked up new tools before you got to use them properly for more than a few routine tasks

2018-07-14 20:51:07 UTC  

what is a joke

2018-07-14 20:51:09 UTC  

Deepin does have lightly outdated repos but most software I use offers their own repos anyways

2018-07-14 20:51:24 UTC  

thinking that you can buy hardware that will still have top tier gaming performance in 5 years

2018-07-14 20:52:00 UTC  

top tier gaming performance is a fucking meme when you just end up playing stuff like Enter the Gungeon half the time anyways

2018-07-14 20:52:08 UTC  

Or emulating Megaman

2018-07-14 20:52:22 UTC  

unmodded Morrowind at 4k 320fps 😩

2018-07-14 20:52:28 UTC  

😩 😩 😩 😩 😩

2018-07-14 20:52:44 UTC  

Now I can replay that game I enjoyed perfectly fine on an Xbox but smoother

2018-07-14 20:53:03 UTC  

morrowind's replay value is actually insane

2018-07-14 20:53:44 UTC  

once you realize the whole story was just michael kirkbride's gnostic autism spilling over into a fantasy universe where he can shit on the catholic church and the demiurge through the power of 3D prose

2018-07-14 20:54:27 UTC  

"wait a second, why does every mission in the main quest require me to read a ton of lore"

2018-07-14 20:54:29 UTC  

it all makes sense now

2018-07-14 20:54:54 UTC  

That's a hot take

2018-07-14 20:55:08 UTC  

tfw obsidian will never ever make a new fallout game

2018-07-14 20:55:20 UTC  

tfw Bethesda will never make a new Fallout game

2018-07-14 20:55:29 UTC  

💯 💯 💯 💯

2018-07-14 20:55:31 UTC  

@Cad I can substantiate everything

2018-07-14 20:55:47 UTC  

he admitted on reddit to being a gnostic christian and the parallels are striking in the story

2018-07-14 20:56:10 UTC  

if you learn about gnostic mythology literally _everything_ has a counterpart in TES lore
