  • Linux Mint (I’d recomment Debian edition, LMDE) is basically what you want to try out. I’ve set up a PC with it for my stepfather that hasn’t used Linux at all and he’s happy with it. It’s designed to be as newbie-friendly as possible. You won’t have more issues with it than you’ll already have using Windows.

    Then if you feel unsatisfied with anything about it, you can go looking for other linux distributions (distros) because you have a general idea what’s happening.





  • Garuda is very nice. Only thing I have atm is that there are some issues with updating the system where it doesn’t connect to the garuda repo servers or whatever. I’m not proficient enough to know if it’s their stuff that breaks or the base arch, so I wonder if doing the tedious thing and installing a base arch system myself would be better to understand everything. It’s my first linux system for reference.






  • Solange das Majnstreampublikum kauft und kauft, ist immer dasselbe kein Problem, das ist die Definition und vielleicht auch der Sinn von AAA: Bewährtes hochglanzpoliert für alle rauszubringen. Dafür hätte man aber Gothic 3 nicht so rausbringen dürfen zum Release.

    Da Piranha Bytes nunmal ein kleines Studio ist, müssten die meiner Meinung nach entweder innovativer sein oder eine spezielle Nische bedienen. Die Nische “Gothic” ist anschenend nicht mehr soo hot nach der x-ten Iteration.

    Schau dir beispielsweise CD Project Red von Witcher 1 bis 3 an. Quasi dasselbe Spiel, aber jedes Mal massiv überarbeitet (Kampfsystem, Skilltrees, Leveldesigns, …).





  • That thing looks really interesting, I’ve only two problems from a first glance:

    • I’m not informed on mobile CPUs, the thing looks fine, but aren’t 3 GB RAM not way too less these days? I mean my cheap ass 150€ wiko phone has six

    • I get it that companys like that one have smaller margins than big tech, but 1000 $ for that phone? Why does not a single of these FOSS/privacy/degoogle companies offer a budget phone around 300 bucks? I don’t need a device that runs crysis in 4K, I just want to communicate, browse the web, answer mails, and take okayish photos on something different than big tech spyware.
