No they weren't. I used to play Elite Dangerous and the paddles were used as modifiers, so for example the left paddle held down would change all the face button inputs to distributing energy while the right pad would swap them to common cockpit functions (landing gear, fsd, lights..) Meanwhile both bumpers and triggers remained as a single function: yaw and weapon groups

If you feel particularly nerdy and love stats and graphs, here's a rabbit hole for you
Recently had to help a relative who still uses windows, so here's a freebie from Linux:
You can use super + number to launch any pinned program on the taskbar. For example let's say you have your browser right of the start button and file explorer on the next spot right, pressing super+1 launches the browser and super+2 the explorer
Edit: super = windows logo key
Ethernet with built-in netcat
I kinda use most of proton's stuff. Also I'm not on the us so no idea what the second part means
Old school user here, back in 2005ish Ubuntu was straightforward, even had "wubi" to install it as a windows app, the site was friendly and easy to navigate (compared to Debian's). Another big plus, they shipped the distro CDs for free worldwide, which was a big deal while I was stuck on a shitty ADSL connection that had constant drops.
Mint came a bit later and the big plus was OOTB codecs support. Back in the day that was one of the first walls most users came across, while Ubuntu pushed for a paid mp3 codec (fluendo?) Mint had most audio and video codecs working right after setup.
The UI wasn't that different between the two, considering Ubuntu was running gnome2 (what mate immitates nowadays)
They do for some time now, at least on both workstation and silverblue you get prompted on the first boot and a reminder after a while on gnome-software
It's on my to-research list. I heard some rumblings that tailscale might go IPO. Not that's bad by itself but I have been burned by stuff like that leaving me stranded once they "pivot their operations to maximize investor satisfaction" (aka enshittification)
Thats what Felix said, im personally a fan of OrganicMaps
Articles too much time too, so I made you this
- Google bad, tracking sucks
- Android -> graphene
- Keep -> joplin
- Docs -> nextcloud
- Gmail -> proton
- GMaps -> car GPS
- Tailscale
- Selfhosted on SteamDeck
Which version? The daisy wheel or the dual thumb keyboard?
I kinda miss the older circular mode, it was hard to get used to, but it was really quick and precise
