If you have to use Windows 11, and don’t mind Windows 11’s taskbar design, then take a look at LTSC.

Endeavor’s problem is a Calamares problem in specific.

Pro tip: use an external partition editor before the install. For endeavor, this used to be gparted, but is now partitionmanager. (It even comes with the ISO!)

It’s decades old is is probably broken. Run from the console and see what happens. More than likely it’s a core dump.

There’s even more money to commit genocide.

openSUSE Tumbleweed. Or EndeavorOS if you want to join the Arch side.

Don’t. They usually have annoying line of sight remotes, buffer all the time, and try to send spam email in your name.

This is not even a correct chart.

Fedora requires less maintenance which is important in a university scenario. But then you have those Exam Safe Browsers which don’t run on wine anyway.

If you’re going to miss AUR-levels of package count, my advice is to grab openSUSE (preferably non-Leap), get familiar with zypper and yast, then add the Packman repo. Combined with the OBS (basically the openSUSE version of the AUR), you’ll have pretty high package availability.

openSUSE also requires less maintenance than Arch.

But generally, I recommend EndeavourOS, just add the chaotic-aur so you don’t spend hours compiling, and have fun!

I agree with you.

I don’t hate Manjaro’s developers, but they simply do not know what they are doing. They over promise and under deliver.

And Meta just disconnected FB and Instagram from each other citing the DMA. Meta will stop at nothing to trap users in their platforms.

They’ll enable it for everyone soon. Meta will force the Fediverse its way, for $$$. Why else do you think they want to be in the Fediverse so badly?

Mark my words.

DEFEDERATE, PLEASE! Now Meta has the highest presence in the Fediverse, and they can do whatever they want to it.

Arch Linux 32.

Yes. Don’t be that one teacher who always has one multiple choice question that has no right answer.

Hold on, CyClones was a Raven game? I didn’t even know it existed.

Ah yes, Heretic and Hexen are certainly abandonware /s

I know you probably mean Shadowcaster though.

Doom is great.

Kdenlive’s pretty good.

That’s just bad program design.

Yes, IK WBM is not the problem here. My systems don’t show a logo at all, and they don’t have a “hide logo” options.

I never bought my current machines. Funnily enough, they don’t show any logos on bootup, (Windows Boot Manager is smth else)
