Spanish Linux killed my parents.
"Hello, my name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my distro. Prepare to die"
Hahahaha
Jajajaja
I already transitioned my laptop to Linux mint snd I got no regrets. My VPN isnt installing on it, but i can manage it later.
This weekend....desktop time. I spent a lot of time making backups and making sure everything is in order. I'll report on this very thread when I have done it.
How are you trying to install your VPN?
Almost every vpn offers openvp or wireguard
Which VPN?
Buenísimo el Linux sabor Menta

Why are shitposts in Spanish funnier than English
I'm native spanish speaker, it's portuguese for me the language that really elevates memes for some reason.
I mean same for shitposts in German. Just funnier when it's a language you sorta understand, but not completely.
I always laugh at German memes. I have absolutely no idea what they are. When I see them i imagine a German person crafting a meme which is just a statement of fact and laughing to themself.
Luckily ich kann ein bisschen Deutsch sprechen y hablo un poco Español, but it's only a little in case of the former and even less for the latter. So I'm nearly quadrilingual, but really just bilingual lol
I do get the terms front/rear left/right just from vl, vr, hl, hr though, which is mildly amusing because that comes from owning and fixing formerly luxurious German shitboxes, not the 7 years of German class I had in school.
¡Soy loco por los Córnabals!
It adds a layer of incongruity.
Wait since when is this community Spanish?
Siempre lo ha sido. 🌎👩🏻🚀🔫👩🏻🚀
Rough translation:
Linux Mint: thanks to Steam and Proton I can run Windows games with more FPS. Gabe Newell, you are blessed!
Windows: the Microsoft telemetry ate the RAM, I can’t give so much FPS
I would translate the sentences the same except I would change the ends of those two sentences to say: "Bless you, Gabe Newell" and "I can't give as many fps".
Thanks, ‘bendito seas’ was a new one to me and I was having to do some guesswork!
Yeah, the subjunctive can be more than a little confusing for us english speakers. Wishes, desires, and doubts use that conjugation. In this case op is wishing blessings on Gaben so we have to use the subjunctive.

I don't speak spanish but the doge meme convinced me that linux mint is better.
Doge memes are universal

Wait it actually runs that much better on Linux? Is that because of missing DRM or something?
I don't have a discrete graphics card on my laptop, but I can actually play games on Linux Mint that won't run on my similarly-spec'd Windows box with a graphics card.
It's not a great experience, but it makes stuff playable that otherwise wouldn't be.
IIRC less bloat on linux mostly
Bloat has a minimal impact on performance unless your system is seriously starved for resources.
It's largely the magic of Proton, and everything that goes into Proton. DXVK runs on windows too and that alone can get you double digit performance improvements on the right games.
I see, thanks for the correction. I personally don't get why a translation layer decreases the load.

Not really, it's just how much better Vulkan is compared to DX12. It's mostly about having a way better async scheduler for multi-CPU multi-threading hardware.
