There’s some themes for cinnamon that make it close enough to windows 10 styling.

How is that related to the space mission? Or are we trying to make this look like a Reddit comment section now? It’s an issue in India but that’s not relevant to their accomplishments in space exploration now is it?

Yeah, my friends and I used it a lot for about 6 months before we just stopped because it would start sending notifications at times when we were busy, but I would forget about it after a few minutes since I didn’t care much about using it. Sometimes I was in a lecture hall busy taking notes, other times I wouldn’t even check my phone and miss the notification to post.

I like the free version of waveform 17 as my DAW, but I’m not sure if it supports Linux. Vital is a good free synth with tons of presets.

Posts like this are why Linux users have a bad rep. I like Linux but a lot of tools I use are developed for windows, not Linux. I use Nvidia gpus (because I have to for CUDA) which are known to bug out on Linux.

My reasons are almost the exact same as yours. CUDA, software compatibility, and not wanting to mess with dual boot in case I mess up. I ended up trying linux mint on an external drive and it works pretty well, but I don’t think I see myself using this full time beyond software development.

Yeah some of the Reddit comment sections I’ve seen over the years have been full of people trying to instigate something.

So I think I got it to work. Used a virtual machine to install it onto the drive, and now my laptop boots to Ubuntu when the drive is plugged in. Took a while for me to figure out which partition sizes I needed for stuff since I wanted to do manual partitioning.

Yeah there’s a ton of stuff to learn. I’ve got some experience from my college courses but I want to get ahead before I take the ones that really test my Linux knowledge.

I’m probably going to stick with something simple like Ubuntu 22.04 since some software I use is only supported on that.

I’m going to play around with it soon by installing full Linux onto an external SSD. I’ll let you know how it goes. I’ve seen some guides and tutorials that mention that it’s possible.
