No I did not have GPU accel. I’m curious what you are referring to losing work due to a misclick? Personally I don’t use desktop icons. I’m a previous i3 user so I am used to using my computer with a non traditional interface.

As someone who tried out MacOS in a VM out of curiosity I don’t find gnome to be like MacOS at all in overall functionality. I think to most people it just looks like Mac because top bar, dock and some design choices. Really though gnome is much more like Android. MacOS felt extremely clunky to use vs gnome’s fluid workspace and app switching.
Some of these things might just be the usual Windows problems…like with the heat and fan noise. I have seen huge differences in a few machines (x86 tablet/HP laptop/thinkpad) running Linux vs running Windows. The machines running Linux hardly make a peep until you play a game or compile something. On Windows they were hot and noisy af, night and day difference.
Well I know my local army base (US) was looking for Linux sys admins, so I figure they have some servers on base.
HP by chance? Had this happen to a 360 HP laptop (and I almost never used that functionality!), repaired by replacing the backside of screen where it screws in. This of course required disassembling the whole damn laptop. I was horrified by how cheap it was and now have a ThinkPad T480.
I can’t be the only one who wishes these screenshots were mostly in dark mode. How am I supposed to browse this sub at night while laying in bed when I should be sleeping?
True, kind of silly you have to install an extension because the default gnome weather won’t just let you use open weather.
It doesn’t use open weather unfortunately. It uses the Norwegian Meteorology Institute and their weather prediction is poor/entirely inaccurate for much of the world. I do wish open weather was an option especially since it’s easy to get your own weather api key.

If you are super new to Linux I would suggest another distro besides Debian. Debian is great and I love it but it’s not set up out of the gate for games and newer people in general. Distros like Mint, ZorinOS, Bazzite, and Pop!OS are. Those distros will come with nvidia drivers or help you set up. Bazzite in particular is set up for gaming out of the box, I think it comes with steam and lutris pre installed.
Agree, the old windows blue screen would sear your retinas, could definitely be tuned down a bit.
He said until EOL. Windows LTSC, the IoT version in particular is supported until 2032.
If you have steam installed as a system app then copy the .desktop file from /usr/share/applications/steam.desktop to your /home/yourusername/.local/share/applications. Once you have the .desktop file in local, edit the desktop file and go down to the first Exec= line and and the -silent switch at the end.
But what are the Chinese going to be able to do you? If you are an American living under the American government theres much more they could do to you, such as locking you up.
You could use the android studio flatpak, install flatseal to ensure the app doesn’t have permissions you don’t want.
Yes! I do the same!
I’ll be on you like white on rice on a glass of milk on a paper plate in a snow storm!
Edit: missed a part
Zone launcher. You get to keep your regular launcher.
If you like the interface of the steam deck in desktop mode and you are most familiar with Ubuntu, you could try Kubuntu… which is just Ubuntu with the KDE desktop environment like what the deck has. Theres also the KDE Fedora spin. If you do want to go the Arch route you could install EndeavourOS, which is practically arch with a little bit of hand holding to get you on your feet quickly - and to help you learn the ropes.
Probably, android devices and especially Samsung can be locked down. I don’t know your model though I feel like there are 4,327 variants of “galaxy note”.
