you mean the original Greek pronounciation, instead of the mess, that is “kai-mera”?

At least Ubuntu makes it easy to roam through their archives. Have fun :)
I currently use endeavourOS and I am happy with it, due to it being “just Arch with some wallpapers and optional extras”.
I am open for more though, even if it’s just for trying out :)
My journey was very uneven:
Windows (for many years) -> Ubuntu (for 2 months, dual-boot) -> Windows (for about 6 years, because of some very specific software + pre-Proton gaming) -> Linux Mint (for about a month) -> popOS (for almost a year) -> endeavourOS (now, but always on the look-out for new stuff)
But in between the “main” journey, there was always some stuff trying out, like Void (on an old PC), Arch (inside a VM, now use that VM as a lightweight environment for testing some stuff out)
Yep, fell for the same trap (minus the marriage, but lived 3.5 years of literal hell instead), and that bullshit shapes you more than everything.
The worst part is being accused of being unempathetic, even though you put almost everything aside for them, just to be met with hatred when you inevitably set them off again.
Brother, I hope you are now in a better place in life. Stay frosty :)
As someone who does ride, I understand your perspective, but your proposal of banning motorcycles on weekends and public holidays would be only doing one thing: letting the rich fucks ruin your day on a weekday with their bobbed Harleys and tough-guy cosplay, while working-class people, who picked up the hobby, would yearn even more for fascism, because “tHoSe lEfTiEs wAnnA bAn eVeryThiNg”.
But noise control - yes, please. You are on the streets, not on a track.
It’s not really FOSS, just the software-equivalent of CC-BY-NC or CC-BY-NC-ND.
I fully agree. Why do I have to install gnome-tweaks just to make the UI usable?
That is the sole reason the UAC exists in post-Vista Windows.
Recommending Yandex? Bit of a “hot take”, don’t you think?
Honestly, that would be the most plausible explanation and for me at least that indicates a good father-son relationship, as this would be some shit my father would be doing with me when I was a toddler.
But I also assume that the actual OOP is hand guy and he imagines a potential partner catching him in the act.
Honestly, a better solution would be an open-source IODD-type device, because sometimes I still meet old devices which do boot via USB DVD drives, but not flash drives.
But Ventoy is a second solid choice, especially with newer devices, where such limitations are basically non-existent :)
I personally have tried FreeBSD and some FreeBSD “distros” on the desktop, and have used *BSD-based stuff as servers/single-purpose machines.
As a desktop system (user-centric use case), you notice how hardware support is sometimes problematic, especially on laptops. I personally had problems with NVIDIA GPUs, already a problem on Linux, being a big problem here as well, and don’t mention WiFi (FreeBSD doesn’t support 802.11ac and up currently) or Bluetooth. Software-wise, if your applications do not have a *BSD version, well, then you are relying on Linux ports, which for desktop use isn’t exactly great.
But, in servers/headless setups, *BSDs are shining, with the most important things running rock-solid, stable and resource-friendly.
Isn’t it kinda sad that one has to rely on third-party articles to even understand the package manager/OS one wants to use?
Don’t worry, the next “mandatory” cumulative update will take care of that, even if you aren’t installing it yourself.
But isn’t that behavior actually documented in the Arch wiki? At least when you manually install it, it lists packagekit-qt6
as being “not recommended”.
It is, if your priorities are to tinker even more with your computer. (nix configs, etc.) :)
Using non-tech analogy, it is like having a “project car” to tinker with and a “daily driver” to get to and from work, if you are a car enthusiast.
I currently use Plasma 6 on both my laptop and my desktop, but XFCE has a special place in my heart, due to it being right in the middle between being lightweight with resources and still staying usable for a buffoon like me.
sadly not, but GPUs (at least those I used) do not support that over HDMI as well, which is kinda frustrating :/
That’s exactly it, Bazzite, a distro associated with gaming, running on hardware that even at release was criticized for being “landfill fodder”.
