Yeah, this took a bit of time and patience. But now I have all the tail weapons.

Walk backwards in medium distance to trigger its flight attack where it swoops down at you. Dodge to the side, run near the tail and quickly roll underneath it, far enough to stand still on the other side for a moment. The last part is important, if done correctly, the dragon will always try to crush you with its tail. You should be near it, but not take damage. Now you can get a few easy hits on the tail.

Dark Souls: Remastered

Currently in NG+ and recording all the bosses for YouTube. This game even offers native ultrawide support! My final rating will probably be 4/5, many boss fights are just too easy, even on NG+ (except DLC).

Change is always hard, be it Windows 7 to Windows 10 or 11. The German company Tuxedo Computers has pretty nice Linux laptops for beginners and professionals, this is what made the change easier for my parents: http://tuxedocomputers.com/ They even offer RTX 4090 custom laptop builds, but for the screens they still have no OLED option when I looked the last time.

This would be terrible, because any website could potentially make you a seeder for „illegal“ content while normally browsing the web without a VPN. Meaning, your real IP address may accidentally be recorded by some lawerers and you'll get a fine for whatever you accidentally shared (very dangerous, depending on country).

There are already solutions for webtorrents, but at least these scripts can be blocked.

Apple's requirements should be a pile of money, a big pile of money.

Der Prozess (1915) by Franz Kafka, it still is relevant today.

Thanks, it worked! I enabled HDR before and never had any problems with it on NVIDIA with the latest 560 driver.

Easily the scariest was „Amnesia: The Dark Descen“ (2010).

 

It is the only file in there.

For podcasts and radio, you'll need another program. But this is the closest any player has come to the Windows-only MusicBee masterpiece. Via Wine, I've been using MusicBee since I switched to Linux a few months ago, but it was tedious to set up.

Tauon Music Box has the best search I've ever seen, just type anywhere and start playback with left click or jump to song/artist/album with right click. It also has a great way to write filter and sort queries for custom libraries (the same as playlists here). F5 shows the current cover and song name in "fullscreen" with a frequency spectrum visualizer.

Screenshots from my library with custom settings:

I also consider using it to play my audiobooks, because you can separate playlists to scan separate folders and not get music and audiobooks mixed.

 

I chose Debian 12 as a solid and stable base. Which of these shipped DEs is the best for this particular laptop series and Windows 10 like user experience?

GNOME 43, KDE Plasma 5.27, LXDE 11, LXQt 1.2.0, MATE 1.26, Xfce 4.18

Don't know the exact laptop model and year, but here are some specs: IdeaPad, only HDD, DVD drive, shipped with Win 8 or 10 (I think), unbearably slow on Win 10 currently

Use case: office, web, movies (not streaming), things for non-tech-savvy users

Personally, I'm using Arch btw with KDE Plasma 6 on Wayland, so I would prefer this over other DEs, but Debian still ships version 5. Has anyone experience with performance on an old Lenovo laptop with any of the listed environments?

I tested it a bit in a VM to get familiar with pacman and yay. Latest KDE Plasma 6 and more snaps in Ubuntu's future are the main reasons I want to switch.

As I don't use a separate home partition, I have an extra drive with BackInTime home dir backups and virtnbdbackup snapshots.

Is EndeavourOS stable enough for everyday use and would restoring home with BackInTime just work (as root user)?
