Only use TTY

Isn’t the constant ignorance of global warming and funnelling money into fossil fuels basically “weather modification”?

Wtf, has this idiot forgotten about what it’s like getting stuck behind a cyclist on the road?! Absolute brain-rot.

From what I’ve heard, Wayland isn’t really a thing in Mint yet. So if that’s important to you, you’re gonna have a bad time lol

Arch

2 years

Proton-GE has run everything I’ve thrown at it. Only thing I really needed the internet for was to figure out which Nvidia driver I needed during the Arch install.

Nope, I left Ubuntu for Arch to get away from those problems (Snaps, and how long it sometimes took for updates to get to the repos)

Been playing it like nonstop for the last few days in Linux. It runs perfectly on Proton-GE with my RTX 3070

I left Ubuntu for Arch because I got sick of Arch having everything I wanted and Ubuntu taking ages to finally get it. I was tired of compiling shit all the time just to keep up to date.

Honestly glad I made the change, too. Arch has been so much better all around. Less bloat and far fewer problems.

Because using your freedom to promote options that restrict freedom means helping to remove your freedom. But hey, what do the Linux elders know? Clearly the new people into Linux are far smarter…

Flatpaks, appimages, snaps, etc: why download dependencies once when you can download them every time and bloat your system? Also, heaving to list installed flatpaks and run them is dumb too, why aren’t they proper executables? “flatpak run com.thisIsDumb.fuckinEh” instead of just ./fuckinEh

No thanks. I’ll stick to repos and manually compiling software before I seek out a flatpak or the like.

This shit is why hobbies and things should be gatekept. Just look at how shit PC design is these days. Now they’re coming after the OS.

Yes, but in this case they are punching up - just not high enough.

I’ll never understand that logic… No, your father is horribly underpaid and instead of joining forces with the unions to get better working conditions and wages, we’re gonna shit on them so we have no leg left to stand on.

Brilliant

I remember when we used to laugh and ignore people with these default-generated Reddit usernames… What a stupid community they’ve become. If you can’t take the few seconds to create a username, you’re not there for anything more than spamming bullshit.

Why just Christian prayers? Why not prayer in general?

Use a generic “what do you think about prayer in public schools?” survey, and then where states vote YES create campaigns to make satanic and Muslim prayer programs at schools in the states that were all for prayer lol

Yeah, I thought that was a bit weird, too. Going as basic as explaining how to use ls and cat and how to run an executable, but not mentioning how to make an executable actually be executable.

I thought maybe it was just something wacky with my Termux install that made me have to chmod it all.

I also found it weird how the game didn’t manage HP and inventory for you. There must have been better ways for it to show you how to use session variables…

If that was true, then we wouldn’t see people bitching about the cold while I’m out in a t-shirt and jeans in 50°F weather. Seems fucking stupid to base a measurement system on something so subjective.

I found I had to chmod u+x the binaries, but they worked fine. You need to make sure you call them as ./filename (assuming you are in the same directory as the file)

IE:

chmod u+x treasure

./treasure

Forked it, renamed it, and changed nothing but the license on it.

What’s stopping it from becoming the defacto version putting the original into the point where it’s no longer worth maintaining, then Microsoft pulls it and sells it as a subscription service?

They fact they based it on Fedora in the first place seemed like a stupid choice, but I’ve been biased against Fedora for a long time lol.

IMO they should have based it off Arch or Ubuntu to align with the Steamdeck or SteamOS

I don’t have anything too fancy. I use [theFuck(https://github.com/nvbn/thefuck) to handle typos, and I have some variables set to common directories that I use.

For me it’s been the availability of packages, and how up-to-date things are. The AUR is a gamechanger.
