If you want serious optimizations - then Gentoo is your choice. But seriously, there won’t be any serious difference between distributions. What really matters here are DEs and browsers. I would recommend some kind of lightweight window manager like i3 or dwm. If you do not want to configure everything yourself, then your choice is lxde/lxqt. Also, you can use distros without systemd (void, artix, devuan, gentoo etc), but that does not matter that much.
I know that most people will write off San Francisco because “Apple bad,” but I really do love it. Simple, looks great, and does its job with nothing crazy. Same goes for New York. Credit where it is due: I think Apple makes great fonts.
I’m not at a computer to verify, but dpkg -I package.deb will list dependencies of a deb file, so apt-get download $(dpkg -I rescuezilla_2.4.2-1_all.deb) might work.
The grep goes there to list only what comes after “Depends:”. The -oP enables the python command to remove the string matching itself, so it leaves the whole list after the match… otherwise it also tries to download a package named “Depends:”. And the tr -d ‘,’ is to remove the commas separating each package, otherwise it fails to find them.
install an x server app in your phone (e.g. XSDL) and start it
install Termux from f-droid (the one in play store hasn’t been updated due to changes in play store policy that prevents Termux package manager from working)
in Termux, run something like DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:0 ssh -Y user@hostname
If it’s not an issue, it’s not an issue. If you need to change the settings at some point, you could look up if there is a way to reset the password. Or sometimes there are tools that let you change the EEPROM settings from linux, without needing to open the BIOS. Depends on the hardware.
zsh … it is totally awesome, I saw a lot of crazy autocomplete stuff by people using it. I stick to bash mostly because it is simply installed everywhere and good enough for my needs. (With some help like autojump for bash.)
Gnome with Wayland: I am just too used to the touchpad gestures and sleek looking apps to go back. Even windows looks and behaves janky in comparison
Firefox: plain better than the alternatives, the scrolling is so much better under Wayland too
The auto dark mode GNOME extention: it between dark and light mode depending on the time of day
Rounded window corners GNOME extension: forces all 4 corners of applications to have rounded corners
Separate /home partition, very useful for distro hopping or in case just going the nuclear option and reinstalling everything is the easiest way to deal with a breakage
