Gnome is different and at first I was lost, but after figuring out the basics is amazingly well integrated and just works as expected. KDE is super configurable but always feels a little off in a hard to describe way, like little quirks or lags or other papercuts.

The repos have a lot of stuff, but if you ever get stuck for q package you can install debs with alien command, or find community repoes here https://software.opensuse.org/ They typically offer 1 click installs, or direct rpm downloads
OpenSUSE TUMBLEWEED, always updating, but they have an OpenQA tool that checks the builds for success, and if for some reason something did go bad you just reboot and pick the previous (automatic) snapshot. Lots of GUI tools to manage the system and packages via the various Yast2-GUI apps.
BCsven@lemmy.cato PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•FBI says it's now seized "multiple" ROM piracy sites, claims downloads resulted in $170m losses in just three monthsEnglish4·1 day agoLol. Perception becomes peoples reality.
Yes, its really good, and every time somebody say “Linux needs ____ to make its use easy for new comers”. My answer is typically uhm, openSUSE already has it.
That can be:
- OneClick installs
- GUI package management
- GUI service and system settings
- auto cleaning of btrfs
OpenSUSE, you can rollback your OS if an update, or your own mistake, borks it. GUI interface for a lot of stuff. It defaults to enforcing Secure Linux these days. This is a good thing but means extra steps if you want to access certain things remotely, so you can set it to complain or off, instead of the enforcing setting.

BCsven@lemmy.cato Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Does anybody else understand they need to make deep connections with people but their social battery has been dead for a while and can't put up with people's BS?5·5 days agoTo be fair many people out there are just becoming more horrible and its not worth your effort ;)
OpenSUSE has OneClick install for RPMs. https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:One_Click_Install
Edit: and if you happen to download an rpm, you just double click it in the filemanager (or single click if that is your setting) and it launces the install GUI.
Its similar to how MSI file install looks…just next next finish kind of thing
Bike riding in the 80s and jumping ramps, the slope was too high and sent the bike upward so I let go (bad plan) and supermanned myself across the pavement on my chest. I had vertical road rash stripes all down my front.
BCsven@lemmy.cato Linux@lemmy.ml•According to Pornhub data (yes seriously!) Linux market share in 2024 increased more than 40% relative to 5.1% of all users.22·12 days agoNot what the distro meant by release
Music from Microsoft when they had the store and original DRM. They later shut it down and on newer Windows had no way to restore your DRM keys, so the music was useless/locked. Their support basically said “oh well”. Eventually I got around the DRM by an ancient version of Roxio CD burner, somehow because it came out before MS DRM it just read the track and burned it to CD, there was no DRM checking I guess
BCsven@lemmy.cato Dull Men's Club@lemmy.world•Carburerators are the devil's way of making me drink.3·13 days agoI don’t have experience with that carb, but two old vehicles: One was some slime goo had clogged one of the small carb holes. Looked like maybe a rubber gasket had reacted to something and liquified and been sucked into the hole. The other car having the issue you mention was actually a faulty EGR valve getting stuck.
BCsven@lemmy.cato News@lemmy.world•Trump Says He’s Moving Forward With Ending Birthright Citizenship After Supreme Court Gives OK11·14 days agoFirst one: situations like the UK that had very good social support (Dole) even if not working, and so everyone flocked there from neighbouring countries in Europe and middle east and abused it. You had rampant fraud. Not every person is a hard working tax payer, some people are opportunists.
Anyway, just so you don’t get the wrong impression, I’m not a believer in the USA removing Birthright citizenship, I’m just arguing the facts about countries choose how their own citizenship works, not some fundamental universal idea. Like there is that human right belief in democracy. But going to North Korea and demanding they be democratic because its your human right to access it is not going to happen.
BCsven@lemmy.cato News@lemmy.world•Trump Says He’s Moving Forward With Ending Birthright Citizenship After Supreme Court Gives OK11·15 days agoThe first one of course that’s what I meant its determined by the counties laws, no human rights.
The second if you had 100000 show up and not pay tax, you would start changing your mind. The point was the laws for the country you build are established by you, not those arriving
BCsven@lemmy.cato News@lemmy.world•Trump Says He’s Moving Forward With Ending Birthright Citizenship After Supreme Court Gives OK11·15 days agoIts not your “home” if the countries laws say it isn’t. Humans rights say people should not be stateless, however it doesn’t mean you auto gain citizenship of the a random country you are born in, same as some don’t get your citizenship of your parents origin. You get one or the other as your citizenship, or apply for it.
As a hyperbolic example: Imagine your get a lottery win, buy yourself and your spouse one of those islands and start your own country, suddenly everyone hears about it and lands boats to have babies there, now they are your citizens and you owe the social services to a 1000 babies as is their right as a human.
BCsven@lemmy.cato News@lemmy.world•Trump Says He’s Moving Forward With Ending Birthright Citizenship After Supreme Court Gives OK11·15 days agoSure like torture, but just being born a human doesn’t give you citizenship in half the world. Countries get to decide who gets citizenship. Laws are how they are.
Like A as a human you have the right not to be killed, but B citizenship (which is belonging to a nation not the world) is granted by that nation.
Like their are stateless people even. They don’t get auto citizenship
Sure like torture, but just being born a human doesn’t give you citizenship in half the world. Countries get to decide who gets citizenship. Laws are how they are.
You would have to cite a source because I don’t see any reference of UDHR and other treaties that declare citizenship in a specific country to be a human right. Just that you have a right to nationality and right to change it. But countries retain sovereign control over how they grant citizenship, within limits set by international law.
As a born human you have a right to take on your parents citizenship or the country you happened to be born in if that is their law, but you don’t get to choose willy nilly it is set by blood right or birth right laws
It’s all we had in the early 90s for archiving :)
