elementary OS 6 Odin is an absolute beauty and it's out now

I tried it and elementary OS is still VERY patronizing and limited. "Non-curated app" and threatning "untrusted app" (even with VLC media player) bubbles with long running software, are like... WHAT.

Not recommended. This distro is non sense? :cry:

When you go to download there's a magnet icon next to the main download button, that's the torrent.
Oh my thank you very much!

Quoting: F.Ultra
Quoting: LinuxerJust for the record: "Odin" is a fabricated term in the times of our forefathers' time "new normal" after some known conquests to north. The original is Oden, and Oden means the sun. Not a person to begin with.
Actually the original is a combination of Odr and ìnn (which is the equivalent to the English "the" but used as a suffix due to how the oldnorse language worked), Odr is a word that have many meanings including "mind", "spirit", "rage", "extacy", and "poetry".

In old German you have wut (meaning rage) so among the German tribes the name of Óðinn was Wutan, in Old English you have wod for rage and Oden was known as Wōden there. That two other languages and cultures refer to the same god by using the same attribute (rage) points to this being the origin and not something else.

Óðinn has never been seen as a sun god so I don't really know where you got that from? Sun-gods are connected with fertility and life and that are attributes much more akin to Frey/Freya and Thor.
Oden is a ring, Oden is the sun. The information you uphold there is indeed the altered ("falsified") and in a way personified version in the attempt to mix things, by the certain conquerors.

There are 2 base languages, from which ALL other languages came about from. Van (nowadays Finnish) and Rot (nowadays Swedish). Rot-language is the starting point, a sound system, a key system of kind, then Van-language became another level descriptive language.

Here are the keys of Rot (which are included in Van-language structure; the words' parts can be -set apart- through these to get the original meanings and how the words came to be).

A=Aser, B=Bock, C=Skära, D=Di/Dag, E=Ek, F=Frö, G=Grund, H=Hel, I=i, J=Jarlar, K=Karlar, L=Lag, M=Månen, N=Nordstjärnan, O=Oden, P=Pålen, Q=Qvadrat R=Ra, S=Solen, T=Tor, U=Ursprung, V=Vaaner, X=x Y=Yggdrasil, Z=Zeta, ÅÄÖÖ.

Tor (not "Thor") basically means a friend, a best friend. Frei and Freija, as you mentioned, then again were the first people of the planet. One plan= plan and et. Valhalla is located in Hel(sinki) and there is a museum on top of it now.

Heres a pretty good introduction to that and more: https://youtu.be/VjIgfQFTOKs [External Link]

I thought Oden was Greg, and played for the Blazers and the Heat, not the Suns. But maybe I'm mixing things around... :D
Right, you could be mixing :grin:

The cradle for all this culture is on modern day Finland, there was Odenmaa. It was also renamed to "Uusimaa" (a new land). This ancient Odenmaa and its center "Hel" is located in nowadays Hel(sinki), Finland.

Nvidia as GPU makes also this one a deal breaker. Nvidia drivers eventually always break and the community can't possibly help them become better being closed source, Nvidia aren't cooperating with Nouveau of course ..

AMD all the way baby

Quoting: vipor29ok this is a pop os issue because i installed manjaro and the game installs just fine.could be a runtime issue with pop os's version of steam.
And then there is this issue? Many people in the community spread the info that the choice of distro does not matter... Phew.

I wonder does it work on Ubuntu, which would be the most important one to work on i suppose. Any AAA-game or this one.
