After I left Bazzite as “my first Linux” I landed on Garuda. It is Arch based, is gaming and performance focused, comes with different desktop environment options, has pacman and works well with pamac, and has been noob friendly.
No ragrets.
They’re new, and they make decisions for you.
As a new user, I’ve never had trouble with them.
I’m so out of touch now. I used to watch a lot of Star Trek when everything was broadcast television. I just can’t bring myself to get a subscription just for Star Trek though.
I don’t know what all these doomsayers are doing. I installed Bazzite and it just worked. I decided I didn’t want an immutable system so I switched to Garuda, and it just worked. I have Nvidia and didn’t have to do anything extra.
My first Linux was Bazzite. It was great but I didn’t like immutability so I switched to Garuda, which was also very easy.
As you are deciding, consider the differences between the main branches, Arch, Fedora, Ubuntu, etc., and their operating philosophy. Next look at the distro, specifically the helper apps and tools. Many distros now have “at startup” apps now that will help you with updates and installing common software. This help, or lack of it, will make a big difference to you as a beginner.
Garuda does will with Nvidia too.
I assume you mean raw? Because I’m a noob and I installed Garuda, which is Arch, and it’s been dead easy.
Everyone could use Arch! Let’s all flex together!
Garuda absolutely nails it with their helper app that sets you up with a choice of popular software, handles updates, and gives you easy access to common settings.
It makes it very approachable for people new to Linux.
Thank goodness we won’t have to worry about police brutality at this one!
I read this title as: If chat gpt is trying to kill you, you probably won’t be able to tell it to stop.
“Look buddy, we didn’t drown any slaves, we just threw them overboard all chained together in the open sea, after that what happens to them isn’t our problem”
Same energy.
If you get to the point where you decide you want a distro that is not immutable, try Garuda, it’s where I went after Bazzite. It is also gaming focused and has a great helper app to install most of the things most people need and do updates.
Congress is the legislative branch of the federal government, yes. They make the laws carried out by the executive branch. “Feds” refers to federal employees.
So yeah, members of Congress are feds, though not the ones you are used to seeing at your door.
What do you think Congress does then?
Do you not think the feds could pass a law saying that sellers have to keep a list of everyone who buys guns or ammo?
Honestly, I’m really curious at this point why commenters here are so absolutely convinced that they couldn’t.
If the government wants you to have to show id to buy ammo, it’ll happen.
Unless you are manufacturing your own ammunition, you have to interact with someone the government has leverage over.
All they have to do is grab a copy of the NRA membership roster and mandate that gun stores turn over sales records for purchases of guns or ammunition.
I guarantee they can get you on a list pretty quick if they want to.
Sir, this is a Lemmy.
Helicopters can glide too it’s just a little harder. When a helicopter loses power and needs to glide the first step is to aim it at the ground to pick up speed…
Step 2 is to pray you have the height to pull it off.
I’ve had a great experience as a Linux noob using Garuda. It comes with an Nvidia version and has worked great out of the box.
