I mean, if you are already on openSUSE, why not just use Leap? You won’t need to update it a lot hence you won’t need to reboot.

If you’re gonna need that only for your machine, you can easily create aliases that can you can remember.

These isekai titles getting more boring any day. I’m surprised so many of them made it to anime.

I’ll believe when I see a PS title other than Horizon Zero Dawn on GOG.

Yes, basically pretty much everything you may want is possible. OP just uses the bar in floating mode.

As for the age of your laptop, it’s perfectly fine. I still use one from 2011 and it’s doing great.

However if this is your only computer, don’t risk it until the USB ports are fixed. Someone already mentioned but if you have an SD card slot, it might be your way out. Backup your files that way and you can upgrade with peace in mind. Though there is even a newer version now so it’s better to fresh install rather than upgrade twice. After you move your files somewhere else, you can use an SD card to install Linux as well.

We still have a Western Digital Caviar Black in our house that’s still rocking and currently on 44k+ power on hours. We were expecting it to die a couple years ago but it didn’t yet. Using it since 2009. This is the best one I’ve seen.

We also need a native Wayland client for Steam, though it’s tied to Chromium Embedded Framework’s native Wayland support. Probably it will come with Electron’s support. No idea when.

Also it’s not an outbreak if it’s always present.

While I wouldn’t oppose the idea of a pre-installed music player, I believe Rhythmbox was never a core application. I hope they won’t make a music player a core app because you cannot uninstall them because of dependencies. Also the first impression is the distro’s concern not GNOME’s. I support modularism instead of making softwares bundle in a bundle. For example, I should be able to use whatever file manager without worrying about the whole DE bloat. For GNOME, they are in too deep for dependencies, as for KDE.

I appreciate GNOME’s work for simplicity, but I don’t appreciate their dependency hell.

I guess the author of the article has reacted too much. The audio player they mentioned is a music player. At this point a simple audio player suits GNOME more after all of those simplifications they made for core applications.

What’s wrong with that? If you think it’s bloat, GNOME has tons of that and this is just a minor one. I wouldn’t be surprised if Decibels integrated into Nautilus to play audio files directly in the file manager. Probably more beneficial for mobile than desktop though.
