Have you tried Silverblue? If Bluefin’s Gnome customisation isn’t for you I expect Silverblue would be much closer to Workstation

This article is from 2021…

Running bluefin here and loving it although I am forced back to x11 for work

Perth?

True story - I moved from Scotland to Perth when I was 6. A few months later I visited Tranby House, one of the oldest buildings in Perth at around 1830. I remember thinking to myself that our house in Scotland before we moved was older than that (circa 1800)

I prefer Lemmy over Mastodon for the same reason I preferred Reddit (pre-APIpocalypse) over Twitter (pre-Musk) - the ability to subscribe to specific communities with similar interests. Try as I might in Mastodon with selective subscriptions to certain posters I still find myself scrolling through stuff I have no interest in hoping for a nugget of interest.

When VMWare Horizon Client (which I need for work) supports it

I was playing with Silverblue but had to switch out because it didn’t have DisplayLink drivers or a flatpak for VMWare Horizon which meant I couldn’t connect to work

1. Electric Mountain bike - i am over 50 and had not rode regularly since my teens. I borrowed a MTB from a friend last year and struggled to make any progress until I picked up a secondhand e-MTB. Since then I have been averaging around 150km/week and my stamina has notably improved.

2. PC - been a PC guy since 1989 and could not picture life without one. I’m an inveterate tinkerer and have built and rebuilt dozens over the years. I currently have a gaming desktop dual-booting Ubuntu and Win11 and a laptop running Ubuntu plus a couple of servers.

3. iPad - for years I was an Android guy but a couple years back I traded a spare laptop to my niece for her iPad (she wanted to learn coding) and was blown away by the user experience. Since then I have gone all in with iPhone, apple watch, and an old Macbook Air.

I use calibre to manage my collection. Calibre creates a folder per author and a sub-folder per book. I also have separate Calibre libraries for fiction, non-fiction and comics.

Thanks for that. Now that I know the launcher shortcut I will give it another go

Yeah I had a similar experience when logging on to Sway - I had no clue what to do. Did you ever figure out how to bring up a menu or launcher? All I could do after googling was launch a terminal

I’m running Onyx (sorry… Fedora Budgie Atomic) on my Thinkpad and love it. Last night I decided to give Sway a shot and, when I was done with that, rolled back to Budgie without any of the cruft of installing additional DE’s alongside each other.

I’m guessing Arch’s dominance is largely due to SteamOS?

Wow I am not in your league

I am currently migrating from a dedicated docker host to a proxmox host with multiple LXC containers.

old host - 23 docker containers, 128GB system drive, 4TB data drive

backup server - 1 docker container, 1TB disk

proxmox - 3 LXC containers, one of which has 3 docker containers. 500GB system drive, 4TB media drive (not LVM)

The plan is to migrate the loads on the old host to the proxmox host. I also have another 4TB drive coming with the intent of setting up a RAID with 2 of the 4TB drives.

Max is not just one guy. He is an amalgamation of road warriors remembered in legends by the post-apocalyptic societies they helped

Home assistant is high on my todo list right after i set up my new proxmox host

Currently running

• speedtest tracker
• uptime kuma
• paperless
• viewtube
• airsonic
• transmission
• linkding
• vaultwarden
• nextcloud
• audiobookshelf
• code server
• freshrss
• rss bridge
• nginx proxy manager
• homepage
• libreddit
• gitea
• pivpn
• pihole
• borg backup
• time machine

ooh i like the idea of the proxmox cluster

Yeah that one is way OP. My 4yo celeron NUC 8GB with 128GB SSD and 2x4TB external drives is ample for everything I throw at it

EDIT - there is a Ryzen 5 option in that page for 350 would be ample
