Exactly. :)

Wish I had the money to send him a top shelf graphics card though, just to see what he would/could do with it.

Yeah those specs are way overkill, as I'm typing this on my i9 10850k, 6900XT, 64GB DDR4, and 12TB machine heheheh

Greetings!

I need a refresh...

It's lovely that some people have a positive experience. However, perhaps get off "Easy Street" & post some information about how tge majority of us get zebra graphics & clicking noises, & lose all our data ffs. Anyone can import a font.

and those same youtubers claim that if you don't use macOS, then your work has no value. makes me laugh everytime.

It shows you do not need huge resources to create good content. Kudos for the dedication and effort from the creator

Raspberry pi week really made that point. A week with just the pi for all computing tasks and it did everything, including making the video. Admittedly, it did take longer, but it could do it.

True. :D

Jesus loves everyone try to live Holy by His grace and read the bible everyday!

I can't say that is one ever hit my radar!

Agreed. It's a great out-of-the-box experience.

@@ExplainingComputers Yes, indeed. ✅

Perhaps Microsoft stock price will crash tomorrow as a result of this enlightenment.

@@Chris.Brisson perhaps they will not. The distro's software fillment is amazing, but I'm afraid 99% of this is total junk (including the OS itself). It is suitable for some simple tasks, but I doubt anyone built his/her workflow completely relying on this OS and software. It goes with no warranty and no support, and some day or other one will face a problem that will require too much time to solve, which is unacceptable in serious projects with tight time frame. Unlike paid software, which often built/modified/fixed at customer's request and in definite time frame, the FOSS is often built on enthusiasm and for developer's needs. If you don't like it - don't use it, that's what they usually say when you try to improve their software. This is unacceptable IMO

Thanks for watching all these years. :)

Now that is cool.

Thanks for watching!

You need an apostrophe to make that proper USA English ('cuz). :-)

Great to hear Laura -- this is KZfaq at work! :)

Thanks! Will do!

So, let's take... a closer (second) look

And it comes as fully foss, with the option to add as much restricted software as you need or want, but no more.

just let the video run and set the auto play to off. Then move the progress bar back and let it play. Most of the time it works and you won't have to wait and watch the archive.

Sorry to give you another install job! :) CPUs are in such short supply right now . . .

What's the differnce between Ubuntu studio and Kubuntu if they both use KDE?

@@louistournas120 Kubuntu doesnt havd the extra packages built in. It has a smaller install footprint. Ubuntu studio is basically kubuntu with the extra stuff

:)

Thanks for this, and you are right -- I need to do a major re-write of the website. Unfortunately other matters are taking my time right now, but I do plan to spend some time on the website later in 2021.

Greetings!

@Anand Raj Windows is immense bloat. I think we can all agree that is objective truth. It needs stripping down, and reworking. A deep purge of the redundant, and streamline the code.

@Anand Raj All the spy telemetry is probably half the slowdown... must be resource consuming, to forever report to Microsoft...

Always did have fewer issues and Windows is now using some of the bell and whistles from Linux Distros.

@@climjames1677 Because they know their product isn't capable, and need to import into it components that work. In the end, Windows will be Linux in all but name, due to taking in so much...

@Anand Raj That's very much an it-depends. Ubuntu is about 4x heavier than Mint. Try Mageia on your system, it probably won't run at all, or very poorly. Conversely I have PCLOS on about the same hardware and it's slick.

We are in agreement. :)

A pc suitable for light and everyday needs (internet, email, browsing etc) is not expensive nowadays. SSD has become the most important compontent in the machine due to the extremely wide spectrum of user requirements. 8GB is about the minimum needed to give windows 10 a fluid experience, provided the SSD is of sufficient speed (sata-600 with at least 80% saturation, but preferably a nvme SSD directly on the PCIe bus - The SSD in my machine reaches 3.2 Gbytes/sec). The difference in speed between the slowest and fastest CPU has become very large indeed. If you're impressed with a Pentium Gold, you should see the benchmarks of an AMD EPYC with 128 cores and hyperthreading! Remember the Core I7 Gen1 from 2009? That CPU is still faster than the Pentium Gold, that's how wide the speed spectrum is of available CPUs nowadays. Only the newer CPUs are much more power efficient. And it will not be much longer before the line between RAM and storage starts to fade, there are already memory modules that are both RAM and Storage available for servers. See it as the merging of the short term and long term memory.

Thanks Chris, all cool. :)

Greetings Leslie! :)

Thanks.
