soupcat,

I had been trying out Linux and finally decided to install it to my ssd. The timing ended up such that I got the wifi issues on the new install but not my old one, and they basically make the OS unusable. I didn’t realise any of this and am new so did heaps of reinstalling and searching trying to figure out what had gone wrong since it was all fine when it was installed on my HDD.

I finally found some forum posts and bug reports about this after wasting a day assuming it was something I’d done wrong 😂.

Gonna stick to lts kernel from now on I think. 6.6.6 seemed pretty fitting to me, even if it was 6.6.5 that actually broke it.

soupcat,

I keep hearing how customisable KDE is but I couldn’t find a way to change how big the app icons in the application launcher were, they’re so huge!

soupcat,

I wonder if they ever regretted opting for a microkernel design.

soupcat,

I’m brand new to linux and was just trying to install something on a partition and I couldn’t figure out how to do it with either fedora or mint, they kept giving me errors and asking about mount points and stuff I didn’t understand. Then I tried EndeavourOS and the install was so painless, it just asked for the partition and did the rest for me. It also worked with my wifi card out of the box as an added bonus. By far the easiest experience so far. The little bit of googling I had to do to figure out how to use pacman and yay was not a big deal compared to actually getting started with Linux.

This might not count as Arch, but that’s my experience at least.

soupcat,

Haha, yeah, that’s the beauty of how easy it is to just make some installation media and try them out. Certainly wasn’t meaning to come off as argumentative, sorry if I did!

soupcat,

haha, no not at all!

soupcat,

Disclaimer: I’m vegan, btw.

I hate things like this because I feel like they misrepresent the issue. Yes, I’m sure there’s some morons out there that think you have to kill the sheep, but that’s not what the vast majority of vegans think. Also it’s great if this person is treating their animals well but that’s absolutely not the case for the vast majority of commercial wool farms where practices like un-anaesthetised tail docking, mulesing and castration are common. And given the sheerers have quotas to make the sheep are often handled roughly and injured and when they get older and the wool quality deteriorates they’re still sent off to a slaughter house all the same.

Sure there’s some tiny farms out there that take good care of their animals and practice ethically and I’m all for it, but videos like this give a really skewed look at the problem by misrepresenting the complaints vegans have and also the practices on an industry scale.

Peace.

soupcat,

I grew up on farms, I know what good shearing looks like. And even if every single shearer was perfect it still does nothing about the other points I made.
