French is even weirder with “sentir”.
For feelings, french usually uses a reflexive form: “je me sens triste” (I feel sad). That’s the easy part.
Now the real fun is that you can say stuff like “je sens tes pieds”, and it could mean “I can feel (touch) your feet” or “I can smell your feet”, or even both at the same time.
You could either add emulators as non-Steam games to Steam and launch it in Big Picture mode, or use RetroArch which is exactly made for this case
Why do you want to run emulators through Heroic? Most emulators run natively on Linux, most of them are available as flatpaks or native packages.
I feel like you’re trying to do too much at once. Installing Linux for the first time and immediately trying to use and understand containers and virtualization is like trying to fly a fighter jet after getting your first drivers license lesson. For example, Docker is useful in server contexts when you want independent, isolated servers running next to each other on the same physical machine, much less in desktop environments.
Take the time to understand the concepts first. Proton/Wine are translation layers that let you run Windows applications/games on Linux almost as native applications, Steam and Heroic are storefronts to download and install paid games, Docker/Podman are used to run containers, virtual machines are fake computers inside your real computer that can be easily managed with Gnome Boxes for example, etc.
My take:
For gaming:
For Windows applications:
Unfortunately Fusion360 has no official Linux support and is not easy to download and install, while Onshape is browser-based so OS-agnostic.
Yeah FreeCAD has a pretty rough learning curve. Especially since you need to learn parametric and its UI at the same time. I still mostly use OnShape because it’s become second nature, but last time I tried FreeCAD it was much easier since I only had to learn the UI.
Maybe give OnShape a try. Its interface is really good and will let you learn parametric CAD in one of the best conditions possible.
Yes this is normal. You have to group shapes to make them a single object.
On an unrelated note, TinketCAD is ok to make simple shapes quickly, but once you start working with complex geometry, it quickly becomes a nightmare. Parametric CAD (Onshape or FreeCAD) is infinitely superior in this regard.
Think of the OS as a sum of hundreds of components. You have a kernel, a boot manager, a boot and service manager system, a shell, some command line utils, drivers, a display server, a graphical interface, a sound server etc.
On a classical OS, all these components are distributed individually as packages. Which means that there is a risk of failure at any update: discrepancies on dependencies or compiler versions, failed updates, power outages etc.
“Immutable”, also called “atomic” or “transactional” OSs, distribute the whole stack as a single image. If it reminds you of Docker, that’s because it’s exactly the same thing. An update can’t fail. It’s either fully applied or not at all. And that’s because it’s not an update at all, it’s a complete system image deployed alongside the one currently in use. If it doesn’t work, you can simply “downgrade” by selecting the previous image.
