It’s not that far fetched, Google used to have somehow the same philosophy as current IBM-RedHat.

Heed the backup data warning.
But if you just want to test mint to see how it feels, you can boot from a USB and install mint on a second usb. That way you are less prone to lose any data should something happen.
Make sure that the second USB is somewhat recent and has minimum 32 Gb for an optimal experience.
The problem seems to come from Windows. However, what you can do is open a terminal then type :
sudo os-prober
sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
Try to reboot and see what happens. If it doesn’t fix anything, then it might be that your Windows SSD should be mounted directly on the motherboard or, at the very least, on a USB-C port.
Sometimes, what happens is that the hub needs a driver which isn’t loaded by the DOS kernel by default. And since it isn’t loaded, Windows can’t recognise the hub so the hard drive containing itself can’t be found.
If that solution works, maybe you should swap your windows and your linux SSDs, see if the linux kernel can figure out the hub at boot.
This error (hd0) is typical of legacy (BIOS) booting end happens solely because of the MBR. GRUB2 is hit or miss with MBR.
If you’re not planning on dual booting with Windows XP/Vista/7, I’d recommend going to your motherboard settings and changing the boot mode to UEFI.
Then reinstall Debian. That will automatically sort things out :)
Why do you have a /boot as EXT4 and a /boot/efi as FAT32 ?
I would have installed it with only a 500MB /boot as a FAT32 partition. There is no need to mount a partition in another one.
The stuttering can be caused by your video card. Do you use nvidia ?
Did you try replicating these issues with another browser ? Have they been resolved or stayed the same ?
Just because US fuckers can’t live with a climate they helped create doesn’t mean the rest of the world has to follow them.
I think, for the most part, is that GIMP is obscure. Not as in ‘unknown’ but as in ‘really hard to master, how does anything work?’ It has been this way, voluntarily.
I think it’s what lacks in GIMP, a good user experience.
I have used gimp for the better part of the last ten years. It’s good. I have used Photoshop less than ten times in the same timespan. But when I need to do something, it will always be easier to me on photoshop, eveh though I’m not acquainted with it…
KDE Connect is da Bomb
If you dd a 1TB hard drive, it will create a 1TB image. You’d need to have a >1TB drive to store it. If you dd each partition separately, this won’t be the case.
Plus it will be easier to discriminate between different FS and mount them accordingly.
Should work. You’d be better off dd’ing each partition separately.
I have had a few issues with Hyprland / nVidia, ultimately making me abandon hyprland as much as I absolutely loved it.
I couldn’t work with TexStudio and Electron apps were at best buggy.
Which context ?
Have you activated the browser integration in KeepassXC ?
Does a liveUSB boot ?
No, but your home server will. That’s what is needed.
Have your server firewalled and only communicate to your “no internet” devices via these ports.
Should be straightforward.
That would be a terrible idea, if you use the same username.
Since each distro uses your home folder to store their configuration files, there would be a conflict and neither would function correctly.
A solution would be to have your pop OS to have a user1 and your Fedora to have a user2. i.e. John for Pop and Jack for Fedora.
But ultimately, what I would recommend would be the following :
When you install fedora, you don’t have to use a different partition for home. It only has to use a single partition for everything. (iirc, fedora uses a filesystem called btrfs which is very practical for these cases)
Let’s say your partition will look something like this
And if you want a shared space between all the OS you would then have another partition
Imagine you have a 500Gb SSD.
If you allocate 100GB to Windows, 200GB to Pop and 200 GB to Fedora (or another distro) you will still be able to boot on pop and retain those documents while having an entirely different OS (fedora) from which you can boot with its own files and config which won’t impact your Pop.
If you’re more tech savvy you can even create a share partition on which you can store files that are easily transferrable between these 3 OS.
I’m using Arch, I love it. What’s absolutely bonkers is that the system belongs to you.
However, if you have never used Linux, it’s insane to try to install Arch. The online wiki is tailored for people with at least a decent amount of Linux knowledge.
As a noob, it will result in data loss, except if you’re already very familiar with terminals or are very fluent in IT.
You might want to try something more user friendly, as Zorin then come back to Arch when you want more power.
