Nah, all Linux is good. I don’t really need to use Win and since all my HDDs are for media storage I have no reason not to use them on Linux only. They’re only mine and don’t have to hop from PC to PC. Thanks for the input though

Yeah, most options were greyed out. I’ll have to visit the wiki of my distro haha thanks for the tips though
edit: actually, just checked, EXT4 isn’t greyed out, but it says “internal disk for use with Linux only” and since it’s an external/portable HDD I didn’t pick that option
Yes, I’ve basically moved permanently over to Linux and do 99.9% of the things on it. Had to boot Windows for the first time in days only to check whether or not my HDD died after I couldn’t mount it
I’m still in the process of optimizing stuff around Linux (e.g. media drive filesystem) but I’ll get there haha
I’ll keep it in mind, but since I’m getting new, bigger drives I think I’ll just wait for and format them directly in the better filesystem. I tried formatting an external HDD and I think I could only pick FAT or NTSC (I’ll double check), hopefully on the internal drives it will be different!
I’m on Pop!
That’s very useful, I’ll try it next time, thanks for the tip!
I tried formatting an external HDD and I picked FAT, I’ll have to research whether or not that filesystem is good for my needs
Yes, I just learned I can use a different filesystem to avoid (or at least minimize) these issues in future. I tried formatting a portable HDD and I could only pick FAT, that should be OK since I picked “Linux compatibility” or something like that in the format wizard!
Oh, I see. So you’re saying that, when I have the chance, I should move to a different filesysten and that would avoid me issues as the one in the OP?
Guess I’ll need to keep W10 around haha thanks again
It worked, thanks a lot! What would be the Linux alternative to do that?
It is, thanks I’ll try that!
Not chromium and Mozilla Foundation
I was about to reach the same conclusion, as I couldn’t find any mentions of alternative ways of spinning webs, so thanks for the confirmation!
“Wait, whaat…? That’s amaz-… wait a minute”
Wait, I now have to research how they build their webs then, if not by spinning. Thanks for the trivia!
I see, kinda lazy nomenclature, but I guess with all the different kinds of spiders, at some point you run out of names ahah thanks for the info! I hope they stay because they’ve been eating good, and I appreciate the reduced amount of insects
Yes, the reduced chance of getting prey was the first thing that sprung to mind and I was mainly thinking about how that would mean increased hunger… but the web was getting too large to ignore, so we needed a compromise. Hope the trim won’t affect them too much!
Meaning it’s not going to waste too much energy
That’s good to hear! Thanks for all the info!
Spider has kept insect populations in check and I’m grateful. Plus, they’re cute
Hope you get well soon!
Might also have been a poorly phrased question on my part, since English is not my first language!
Anecdotal, of course, but I’ve been gaming with almost zero big issues on POP! _OS with the baked in nVidia drivers since half a year ago. Both via Steam and via Lutris w/ Wine/ProtonGE. Some bugs here and there, but nothing that makes it impossible to get a satisfactory experience.
Of course it’s a different distro which you might not like, but if you really can’t make your games work on Mint do consider changing to POP! at least for the time being
