Fonzie!

Okay but programing or Unix jokes are whole different cake than openly admitting piracy unless you’re Meta.

It’s more like, the distro is the actual “under the hood” OS and the DE is the looks and user interaction.

Hold up is this real?

As per Reddit tradition, good bot.

Are you a bot?

I feel I’m going to regret asking this but why?

I was hoping they meant 9 Australian dollars but even then it would be too much.

Seems like they are $1.83 at Walmart if you buy them per 12 ($21.98 / 12 = $1.83 each) https://www.walmart.com/ip/Monster-Energy-Original-Energy-Drink-16-fl-oz-12pk/581272641

To be fair, they’re about 500mL per can instead of about 700mL but still, that would be $2.75 if you convert it to what Lost_My_Mind listed.

Yeah… It was energy drink.

I would say XFCE and Cinnamon; no two XFCE’s look alike and Cinnamon can easily be molded into something very different as well.

I see a lot of people recommending KDE and Gnome; I’ve found those surprisingly rigid, although there are more guides on how to “rice” KDE into the most non-KDE things so there’s that.

Have you checked software links from the megathread from the sidebar?

I know there’s a lot of links, but that makes it all the more sure at least some of them will have what you’re looking for.

Tip, ndesktop you can right-click the video at the right time and click “Copy video URL at current time”

If not on desktop, you can add &t= after a Youtube URL followed by a seconds-timestamp, for ex. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MM4lJKfu5Mg&t=112 to start the video at the 112nd second (or at 1m52s)

Ah I guess that makes more sense!

Now if it was Debian with the Gnome DE vs Ubuntu, that would’ve been ironic!

I never had good luck making hardware work right with ubuntu Debian, […] always worked way better out of the box on bare metal

Oh the irony!

I’ve been running Mint on my Dell XPS 9370 (methinks) for years and it’s always worked just fine. Only the fingerprint scanner just won’t work, not even with fprintd; it can set up a finger but never to use that same finger afterwards.

I love the customisability of KDE

I read this often but found KDE so difficult to customise. XFCE or Cinnamon is what I’d consider extremely customisable, KDE doesn’t even consistently listen to what theme colour I set :-(

Calm down, he isn’t the sole regent of the kernel, you know.

That’s really, really out of character for Apple.

But then, so was releasing seriously powerful computers.

Maybe that’s cause FLAC encodes audio instead.

Maybe do something about your opsec…

It’s really just atomic Fedora […]*
