I assume SSH is not exposed to the internet by default on openSUSE? I have not used SSH on my install so should I be safe if I just update?

For any one who finds it in the future - I just set a Steam launch with gamescope set to half my native resolution, fullscreen and enabled fsr. Games run at the weird 1128x752 and FSR makes it look even better but I get great performance.

Just wanted to report back that this worked perfectly.

Planning on hopping on as soon as the kid’s in bed!

This but I don’t have time or knowledge.

You can’t just install an arbitrary Linux distro on an Android tablet.

If you want to run Linux, buy something like the Juno or Librem tablets.

Someone at BuzzFeed is reading our Lemmy conversations:

Did you know that mastodons were relatively short? Despite being nearly 40% more massive than modern African elephants, the American Mastodon was 25% shorter on average!

Don’t be afraid to customize your install with YaST. You can add/remove packages before you do the installation.

You’ll need packman if you need restricted codecs for video.

Update with zypper dup as a general rule.

It’s not a minimum before a check is issued. If you do not have a certain number of annual listeners on a track you never get paid out for it. If you had 100 tracks that were each streamed by 999 listeners who each streamed them 100 times per year every year, Spotify will no longer pay you a dime, ever.

I think a key point of confusion is in the way they presented it. They talk about how many songs have “less than 1000 listens” and that those would only make $3, but then their new policy is to deny payment for “less than 1000 listeners.” If each of those listeners streamed the song once per month, you’re talking closer to $40 than $3, and that’s on a per song basis.

The newest part, which is Spotify refusing to payout what small artists are owed if they don’t hit a certain streaming threshold, is 100% on Spotify.

For alternatives, Tidal allegedly pays better and at least doesn’t do this. Qobuz is not owned by any big tech company.

They charge a 15% fee. So the artist (if independent) or record label (if not) gets 85% of whatever you pay.

I did, I cancelled Spotify and switched to Tidal because of this, and noted the reason in my exit survey.

He used an account in his brother’s name? How did they expect to get away with this? You need some degrees of separation here, c’mon.

So these children are driven to work due to poverty right? So isn’t the answer to try to address that rather than to say “stop using cocoa harvested by child labor?” Like I’m totally pro-non-child-labor-cocoa, but wouldn’t the kids just get other jobs then?

It’s tricky because the data itself is going to be biased here. Think about it - even the video game is specifically called “Spider-Man Miles Morales” while the one with Peter Parker is just called “Spider-Man.”

Katniss is actually a good example. I was not aware of the details, but the books apparently describe her as having “olive skin”. The problem though is that if you image search her all you get is Jennifer Lawrence.

That said, Homer is yellow.

If a request is for a generic person, sure. But when the request is for a specific character, not really.

Like make one of the undefined arms black.

Not a new discovery, but I rediscovered Torchlight 1 and 2. The Steam Deck controls make it a lot smoother to play than a mouse.

Secure Boot is definitely possible with oS TW. You can select to enable it on install.

With AMD you will be using the open-source drivers for gaming which means openSUSE will give you the benefit of the latest and greatest drivers for best performance.

Honestly just install it with your DE of choice and install Steam. Even for non-Steam games I find that loading them through Steam to use Proton is typically better than setting up Wine independently.

I love openSUSE and think it’s one of the few distros that has a pretty good implementation for every DE/WM. GNOME, KDE, Xfce, lxqt, enlightenment, mate, sway, etc… are all a solid experience on openSUSE.

That said, I have never found a distro with a good Cinnamon experience other than Linux Mint. Probably in part due to cinnamon being developed by mint, but regardless, if you want to use cinnamon, mint is your best option.
