My job in the a non technical field relies on a laptop to run a label printer, the laptop is ancient and I already had to install revOS on it so that printing labels isn’t horribly bogged down waiting on the laptop to load the simple printer program. Is there anyway that proton would be able to run that program? Probably not because of all lack of driver support, if anyone has any ideas I’m all ear, even just pointing me in a direction would be appreciated!
I use mint and barely had to do much trouble shooting and once everything was working how I wanted it didn’t break for me I just boot up and play, the things I had to trouble shoot were getting my headphones to work and my Logitech mouse keybindings but they were both 5min searches to find programs to install and fix the problems, if you use Linux for work it will probably be even easier.
To add, if you are on the fence for this reason I’d do an 80/20 dual boot. Buy a second hard drive it doesn’t have to be very big, then move your personal files to Linux and use that as a daily driver and have the second drive to just use for nothing but games that won’t run on Linux but you really want to play/friends want to play with you. You’ll find that you rarely have to use the second boot but the second drive will cover your bases for the edge cases, 256gb or even less should be just fine for the second drive since you should only have 1-2 games that won’t play nice with Linux. I wouldn’t partition unless you have a massive drive with space to spare it’s just really annoying to get the space back into one portion if you decide to go back to a single partition.
My keyboard just says Win so I feel like a winner using Linux 😅
I think to get your mind in the right context to sing the song in your head automatically.
Not in every case but you’re the one painting with a broad brush not me.
So when you see a group of kids building a sand castle together on the beach it’s ok to just walk over and kick it over right?
Exactly the people who sell the thing in high demand the issurers are in the business of denying care to people by raising prices on healthcare. I feel like your mind is in the right place I agree insurance companies shouldn’t exist but what you said in your first comment is false large companies who sell high demand products absolutely gouge on prices all of the time.
Um healthcare?
Yeah it’s brand name is kiaro it just uses a usb to connect to the laptop, and revOS is basically just a custom windows install that has as much of the bloatware removed as possible as well as some UI mods to make it feel more like old school windows a little bit. The laptop is from like pre 2010 so Microsoft is slowly killing it’s performance with all the bloatware crap. Kinda ridiculous that they don’t take older hardware performance very seriously on windows the thing is just trying to run simple GUI printer software and it was struggling hard before revOS.
