  • For testing try the live USB sticks Just flash them to an empty stick with programs like etcher, then power dowb and select the stick in your bios (usually reachable by hammering f1, f2 or Del while starting

    (Remember that performance will be much better when installing it for real compared tusing running it from a stick though)

    Dual boot will work and is not that hard to setup, but you should back up all your data before trying it.

    Also when dual booting to avoid duplicates etc I have all my documents and stuff on a USB stick, so I don’t have a version in my win and a version iny linux. Cloud works as well


  • Yes, ez one (if you have installed operating systems before and know how to paste an error passage into google ) -4hours and your done start to finish. (Given you have standard hardware and don’t want to set up something crazy like dual boot with raid and nas)

    Moderate complexity if you have never done anything like that, plan 2-6 evenings to get it fully working with everything you need

    Also: consider your scopes. For most cases Linux will just work, you just have to get used to some different interfaces.

    BUT: some things will not run under linux no matter how hard you try --> google if stuff you can’t live without will work

    (for me I still have a dual boot windows for playing league of legends and running my vive wireless adapter, as those will not run under Linux.

    For games use protonDB

    I may be oldschool, but for people not comfortable around terminals I would suggest Debian KDE as it never breaks and the transition from windows is easy. You can do everything from GUI (clicky button interfaces)

    For the installation of steam you might need a terminal, but there are good guides online (and you really dont need to be a wizard for that) from where you can just copy paste (when searching just add your distro e.g. “install steam Debian”, and once you’ve got that running you can just run every game from within steam.

    Since Steam has done a lot of work with proton, most games just run under Linux. In steam: Install–>play

    For nearly all games not directly running, you can just force them to run with proton. It will say: “Game not compatible” in steam, you just click the gear icon on the right to open settings, go to “compatibilty” and tick “force use of compatibility layer” and select the newest proton from the drop down

    The button where steam previously said “not compatible” magically turns into the blue “install” button we all know and love. And nearly all games run with only minor inconveniences (like showing keyboard hotkeys even when playing with a gamepad) or no issues at all.

    You need to be aware that some games using kernel level anticheat (e.g. league of legends, valorant) can not and will never run on Linux, if the developers of the games don’t add the possibility.

    EDIT: for programs not related to gaming its often easier to use an alternative, if the program is not available for Linux. Most times its also more privacy foccused, open source and free

    Adobe light room --> darktable

    Microsoft office --> libre office

    Adobe Premiere pro --> davinci resolve/shotcut

    Paint/Photoshop --> gimp/davinci/dark table

    Edge --> firfox

    Notepad --> Kate

    Fraps/relive/shadowPlay --> OBS

    Etc. Pp.





  • Wrong community, did you mean AITA?

    To your point though:

    Tldr: IMHO you overreacted.

    While i am totaly on your side regarding the abolishment of car-societies, you banned/removed someone for “direct insult” who made a comment about a general group of people.

    Especially since you (and most people on the sub) don’t even argue for the point he is making fun of, this is clearly no direct insult against any particular person.

    While his comment IS stupid (IMHO) and IS a strawman argument (so doesn’t add anything to discussion but rather steer towards a direction I find non-constructive) It IS also clearly a hyperbol and IS clearly NOT directly insulting a particular person.

    So even if I share your annoyment regarding such people, I think you went full reddit mode and abused your powers. Just my humble opinion, feel free to disagree

    While I find it legitimate to ban people who repeatedly only derail and insult for the fun of it, I don’t think banning people not getting the point or using graphic language fosters a good discussion culture or gets anyone to change their views or educate themself but just leads to a circle jerk. The point when to assume someone is acting in bad faith is not easy to define, but especially if this is a oneoff its definitely not reached in my opinion.

    While you can mod your sub this way, I don’t think it helps for reaching our goal and its not the moderation I would like to see.

    judgment: PTH(uman)






  • Interesting. Was ich aus dem wiki Artikel noch nicht so ganz verstehe, ist warum die elektromagnetische Strahlung hier einen impuls überträgt wenn sie keine Masse hat. Klar, die Energie muss irgendwo hin, aber bei einer absorbtion bzw. Reflektion einer masselosen Strahlung hätte meine (möglicherweise naive) intuition gesagt diese kann nur wieder in Form von elektromagnetischer Strahlung (reflektion) oder Wärme (absorbtion) erfolgen.

    Warum hier plötzlich kinetische Energie vorkommt, raffe ich nicht.

    Ein anderer Kommentator sprach an, dass elektromagnetische Strahlung nur keine Ruhe Masse hat (und impliziert damit dass sie eine andere Form der Masse hat), da sie sich aber immer mit Lichtgeschwindigkeit ausbreitet und nie zur Ruhe kommt, verschiebt dass das Problem aber nur darauf, dass dass maimai von einer rein hypothetischen masselosigkeit spricht die nirgendwo außer auf dem Papier tatsächlich existiert, und dass etwas ohne Masse bei der Kollision trotzdem einen impuls generiert, was natürlich möglich ist, aber ohne eine Erklärung warum dies der Fall sein sollte eine unbefriedigende Antwort bleibt.


  • Danke für diese Erklärung, leider reicht mein Physik Lk wissen von vor 10jahren hier nicht mehr aus um mitzukommen und bei mir bleibt hängen “ich mag deine lustigen Worte, magischer Mann”

    Der unterschied von Ruhemasse und anderer Masse (?) war mir nicht geläufig, vlt. Finde ich da bei Gelegenheit mal ein gut gemachtes erklärvideo oder so.

    Auch wenn ich Einstein wirklich hoch achte und seine Meinung viele parallelen zu meiner hat, bleibt ein autoriatätsargument ein scheinargument.

    Aussgagen sind wahr oder falsch und hilfreich oder nicht aufgrund ihres Inhalts, nicht aufgrund ihres Autors.

    Ich beschreibe mich als materialistischen Dialektiker, weil es eine wahrhaft gutes Modell gesellschaftlicher Verhältnisse ist, nicht weil Marx gesagt hat, dass materialistische Dialektik gut ist.

    Wer es als Argument benutzt dass Marx, Einstein o.ä. etwas gesagt hat, hat kritisches denken nicht verstanden und steckt immer noch im autoritären Charakter fest, zu dem er in unserer Welt sozialisiert wurde.


  • OP ist wondering if the/a meme is just poorly edited OR AI generated because this matters for whether he should get angry or not…

    Pretty straight forward in my mind (Or used as in “is A true OR is B true?” - "if A is true --> don’t get angry ; if B is true --> get angry)

    Its used like: “are you taller than 150cm or smaller than 150cm? Its an important question because it determines if you are allowed to ride this rolercoster OR not”

    Spoken language “or” is different from programming “or”, where in the latter it could mean if either a or b is true, --> get angry AND not get angry. This is not how it is used here though.
