Can one recover from an accidental rm -rf of system directories by copying those files back in from a backup?
Well I’ve joined the “accidentally trashing your system with rm -rf” club! Luckily I didn’t delete my home directory with all the things I care about, but I did delete /boot and /usr, and maybe /var (long story, boils down to me trying to delete non-system directories named those but reflexively adding the slash in front...
CentOS Stream for a private KDE Desktop?

short question by an aspiring user
Hello, apparently hanging out in Lemmy inadvertently makes you thinking about using Linux. I am planning to install Linux Mint cinnamon on an older laptop, which I want to bring to LAN Parties. From what I read I can just format my C:\ windows disk, install Linux via bootable drive and from what I understand, proton is basically...
Winewayland.drv: part 11: Mouselook support · Merge requests (gitlab.winehq.org)
What are the differences between linux distributions?
Hey guys! Trying to understand what developers actually do to create a yet another distro, or what are the differences between existing distros. Lets say we have ubuntu and fedora.

Techrights — The Effort to Silence (Squash) GNU/Linux Advocates and Press Coverage (techrights.org)
THE Google ‘News’ (Gulag Noise [1, 2]) mentions of “Linux” diminish again, partly because sites that used to cover GNU/Linux every day suddenly stopped a few weeks ago (our coverage of it had struck a nerve, attracting about 3,000 readers). No need to shame the publisher or anything (it had done a great job until it...
The Distro Wars are good actually.?
If all the seemingly pointless discussions about which distro is better comes from attachment to a spesific distro and if a distro is just a way to interract with linux than all the discussion about witch distro is better etc. fundementally comes from a a place of love and appreciation for Linux as an OS....
The Wine development release 9.0-rc1 is now available (www.winehq.org)
Does `cp -v` print out the file name when it starts copying it or when it's done?
So if I had a cp -v operation fail, is the last file name it printed out the last successful file copy, or is it the failed partially copied file?

Micro***t Word on Linux and alternatives
Are there good Microsoft word alternatives that support Linux (I don’t mind closed source)? Libreoffice is meh and only office is quite good, but are there any better ones? Also, is there a way to install word on Linux using wine? When I do that my laptop just overheats and loses internet connection.
