in my mind, I think I'm seeing Linux as a puzzle; I just have to find the right pieces and put them together correctly and then it'll do what I want
I'm not sure if I'll actually always succeed but I'm still having a lot of fun

Woo! Game is running!
Course this little computer was never meant to run anything but excel and email so its graphic capabilities are *limited* to say the least. But it's kinda fun, 'sims in the raw' if you will. Like I was back on the family computer in 2005. Course this little thing still has the capabilities to render the sims' fingers.... our computer did not.
Fully had no idea sims had fingers till I got my gaming laptop years later haha
I finally got my laptop to switch between display configurations the way I need it to.
Now my main concern is the stuff with audio, which I think I saw a guide for somewhere. It's not disruptive to daily use. I think it's an issue I wouldn't get with a different distro, but on the whole Mint is most convenient and stable on my old hardware.
I'm a wizard
So did manage to get it installed and even got the dual boot to work! Key was going to bios and changing the boot order of my disks so that the one where linux is i stalled is before the one where windows is installed. This way the bootloader is the linux one and I don't have to fight with windows to get it to show up.
Because it did do that. Even after turning the bootloader on it only showed windows installation in the options but the second I changed the boot order and usen Manjaros own loade both options were there all nice and proper!
Now just gotta run all updates and get this puppy running
More linux adventures
I guess for posterity's sake if nothing else I should continue to comment on my linux adventures. As the time for my old win 10 pc draws close and my new model is but a motherboard at the moment, I've decided to put a Linux Marnjaro to boot in parallel with my current operating system.
This was a decision mostly driven by stubborness and willingness to learn linux as a big fuck you to Msoft as anything else and Manjaro was chosen for it's good compatibility with older pc parts (the goddamn 2009 motherboard) and possibilities for gaming.
The hoped end result was going to be a dual boot system with Manjaro KDE Plasma, and windows 10 (for gaming and for while learning). Not that bad an idea. There are good tutorials in the interwebs for doing precicely that.
For background info, I am currently running a custom pc that has been trucking along since 2009 with varied different parts as older ones blew out over time. Curren configuration has 8g of ram, three different hard drives all with at least one partition and an old legacy BIOS.
A magnificent start.

Lutris keeps crapping out on me, so I think I have no choice but to switch my main OS to Windows 😔 I really miss being able to play on my PC. Lately, I've been playing on my 2015 macbook air, and it's still fun, but the tiny screen gives me a migraine after awhile lmao. And I miss hobbies, apartments, witches, pink UI, and my lighting & camera mods 👀
“If you're using the Debian distribution, you'll find that Thunderbird is called “Icedove.” Like Debian in general, this is for entirely reasonable but somewhat obscure reasons.”
Arch experience so far:
EVERYTHING IS UGLY.
I TRIED TO UPDATE THE FONTS BUT ONLY MADE IT WORSE.
