BlueDepth9279, in Come tell Tux🐧your Linux plans for next year to cheer him up

I was gifted a new laptop with windows 11. It’s a great laptop but windows is dragging on me. I already went full time Linux on my desktop so I may have to at least dual boot on my laptop. Anyone with experience dual booting from an external drive?

Got a old piece of hardware that I want to breathe new life into as an NAS. Going to learn me some more about file systems and networks.

Will probably cave into the WM craze

victorz,

What’s this craze? I’ve not heard about it.

sherlockholmez,

Window Managers.

Tiling Window Managers like i3wm are all the craze right now.

victorz, (edited )

Oh window managers. I thought you meant VM, like virtual machine. W vs V, my bad.

Yes, they are the shit. Been using tiling for over a decade. Very nice stuff.

This new year is my year of Wayland. I’ve got Hyprland going on my new work laptop. Still using my old one with i3 for the time being since I’m too busy during the day to thinker around, but I’m slowly getting this new one ready. Hopefully will be done by the new year.

victorz,

What do you like about Hyprland compared to i3? I’ve been using i3 reliably for over a decade, but did try Hyprland and thought it just felt like a new Compiz in its default state. What drives you to it?

Neil,

That’s pretty much exactly what drove me to it, plus the excuse to get started on Wayland. Like it or not I think Wayland is the future.

I’ve been on i3 for near a decade for what it’s worth.

victorz,

Interesting. So the wobbly animations and stuff is up your alley, basically?

At work, a partner plans on migrating a prod server from windows to linux next year.

This will give me the opportunity to lobby for migrating some of our servers as well.

Once (or if) Valve adds Linux Steam Link support for the Oculus Quest 3, I’ll be VR gaming on Linux!

My answer is boring. Almost nothing. I feel like I finally have things dialed in. Except maybe my desktop experience. But beyond that the most i see myself doing is making some upgrades to my PC like a larger nvme drive since i edit with resolve on a 500GB nvme & if you’ve worked with clips in resolve on Linux you know how huge the files can be. One project can be 50 GBs.

I want Void Linux encrypted volume out of the box and libre kernel version

EnderMB, in Linus does not fuck around

It’s often clear to see that Linus hasn’t experienced the “and find out” part of what happens when you fuck around. I know that many of us techies aren’t the most confrontational types, but I’m surprised that no one has hit him yet.

voidMainVoid,

Physical violence is not an acceptable response to rudeness.

EnderMB,

When did I say it was?

It’s an unsurprisingly response, though.

Secret300, in Wayland vs X11 be like

Anyone that still wants to use x11 can attempt to maintain it themselves.
