Anyone claiming it’s bad either has been under a rock for a decade or only plays rootkit anticheat games with micro transactions.

I use it on my steam deck microsd to cram more shit in via compression. Main drive is left as ext4 though so case folding can be used for particularly janky windows games or mods.
Grass@geddit.socialto Linux@lemmy.ml•Distro recommendation for ease of use and up to date software9·2 years agoI used Manjaro for several years but it requires so much manual intervention on updates that don’t work. Just straight arch or endeavor would be easier in the long run imo. I use tumbleweed on my current main computer though.
Opensuse and a couple other distros I tested can do this too right out of the notification panel which is thankfully easy enough for my parents and grandparents. I still end up using the “quake style terminal” most of the time and just flatpak through the notification sometimes.
Damn. We need a FOSS server but publishers probably would not agree. Not having to make and link a middleman account would be a bonus though. Client could probably be arranged for on some devices but even on Kobo which isn’t really locked down I would not consider running unofficial software beginner friendly.
I can’t even bring myself to use the gui update tools on distros that have them. It just feels like doing anything with extra weight strapped on to every limb.
In the Intel core 2 era I played with doing this and trying to have the kernel and software all optimized and compiled for the specific hardware of the specific computer I was using and the performance gains if any were negligible.
I’d lean towards no.
My recommendation is check if you have a local ink/toner shop and see what their refill prices are for the toner cartridges. I chose my printers based on being cheap to continually use and the quality is good enough for me.
There are a few ways I can think of to do this but I’m not sure what would be the best way.
You can just mount individual drives or partitions to the corresponding location (xdg directories or otherwise). This is what I generally do.
I haven’t tried this but If you don’t want to partition the shared drives, you could make corresponding folders on the root of the drive (or anywhere really) and bind mount those folders to the corresponding location. For it to be persistent across reboots, a brief search says you can put it in fstab this way: /source /destination none defaults,bind 0 0 There is also rbind which I think is recursive but I haven’t read up on when to use it.
I haven’t tried this either and forget which is which but symbolic link or hard link may or may not be viable and would also be persistent I think.

Grass@geddit.socialto Linux@lemmy.ml•Found an interesting post about Linux saving someone's life. Does anyone else have stories like this that they want to share?13·2 years agoThis is so fucking weird. But what isn’t I guess.
I just use Photoshop CS6 (cloud subscriptions can get fucked) through wine the odd time I need it and so far I haven’t encountered any problems. Fusion360 is still super janky though, and I don’t know visio.
Looks great. I’ve been wanting to try i3 but the last few years I just kinda stayed in kde without trying anything else
I want a system76 pangolin but I’m broke.
The floor is made of ground too.
