    mu4e because it's the best email client which runs in Emacs.

  • I'm going to need an ELI5 because I have read several explanations online, and I still don't fully understand what makes them different. Why would you want to use one over the other? Don't they both just forward your internet traffic? How do they work, in general?

    Good news! I believe the Ladybird Browser intends to include support for JPEG XL.

    Q1: Pretty good! Use ProtonDB to check what games work, and if you need to apply any fixes.

    Q2: Linux Mint is the most popular choice for beginners, and it's extremely easy to use. Other people choose Pop!_OS because it's apparently better for gaming (I haven't tried it). However, I think the best distro for gaming, while still being extremely stable, is Nobara (a distro based on Fedora Linux).

    Also, practically all Linux distros are customizable, don't worry about which one's the best.

    P.S: You can browse through the most popular distros here: DistroWatch

    (Background: I've been obsessively using Linux for four years.)

    You could utilize the server/client functionality over the local network instead of using the same process.

    So you could point the other users to the machine's local address and they would automatically find the Pipewire server. Maybe? I guess? It's just a theory.

    https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PipeWire#Sharing_audio_devices_with_computers_on_the_network

    This thread seems to have what you're looking for.

    https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=265878

    According to the thread, its possible to provide system-wide usage by enabling this option at build time:

    -Dsystemd-system-service=enabled
    

    Or it seems like you could share it over the local network by editing the Pipewire config file and making an environment variable. (See post #5.)

    Or you could

    Just add the "player" user to the "audio" group

    according to post #8.

    Note: it seems like Pipewire runs on port 4713. So the server would run on 0.0.0.0:4713, I guess.

    Emacs, of course!!!

    I can not imagine trying to get stuff done without it.

    It makes organizing, programming, writing, just everything so much easier.
