Welp time to give the hard working CEOs a well earned raise of a few billion.
while we are at it, i think we should cut costs. From where? well the biggest source of losses of course! the employee's wages! or even their entire jobs!

so i made the mistake of opening twitter today. one of the first things i saw. even better -- if you visit the person's profile, their bio says "Landlord, Southerner, A10 haver."

I don't know if it was just the can I had but I tried to eat sardines for the first time the other week and I have not felt that disgusted at food in a long time.

Also you have me with beans.
spongebob-i-fucking-love I love beans. Baked beans in particular. I could eat a whole can of just beans. I love beans.
Lately, I've been enjoying beans and rice. bean

You won't like hearing this, but the poor gaming industry NEEDS to raise prices to at least 100 USD (hexbear.net)

You won't like hearing this, but video games must become more expensive. When I was little, my dad got me a PlayStation 2 for christmas, but without any games. My mum was very generous and took me out to pick two games for it. They were 60€ each. Nowadays you would call those full-price games. But now, 20 years later, a full-price game is still about 60€. If you correct that for inflation, it should really be 86€ now. And that's not even covering the fact that games have massively increased in visual fidelity, which is much more expensive to produce. If you don't want games to be littered with microtransactions or ads, then you have to accept that a regular video game must be at least 90€.

Can't wait to buy the next installment of insert sports game here/call of duty for 100 USD base, 200 for the dlc, maybe even 300 for the ultimate deluxe extreme version.

It depends on what you install. You can do an arch install without Wayland. I'm currently running x11 on Arch with Wayland also installed so I can switch back and forth at any time.

However, unless you like to spend time learning how Linux works, I'd just go with another distro like Nobara. It will have everything you want pre configured.

The issue the post is about applies to password managers too.

I personally just use tldr to figure out how it's done.

[–] Tayphix@hexbear.net 1 points 1 year ago

Alternatively, Piped has SponsorBlock built in. It also has DeArrow support, but I find it causes too much of a slowdown so I keep it disabled. Plus, since I only really watch from my subscriptions, clickbait is less of a worry for me.

Is there a proper way to use several DE's on one distro or is it not advised? in c/linux@lemmy.ml

The program responsible for logging in and starting your window manager is called the display manager. Sddm is the default for KDE and GDM is the default for Gnome.

Technically, you don't even need a display manager as you could login and start the window manager manually directly from the TTY. That's just mainly useful for when you break something in your display manager config though.
