Abnorc, in Oh no ...

I don’t care that much about Linux, but I did use it a bit in school. I still like seeing you guys argue about your favorite init system or whatever the hot topic is nowadays.

InFerNo,

Still the init system unfortunately

oh, the init system. these days, systemd is the default, although other init systems do have their vocal proponents.

I feel personally attacked, but also Linux is great, haters gonna hate.

See the thing is that most of us USE LINUX. We just don’t need our content aggregation website to be 90% Linux when there’s specific communities for it.

TangledHyphae,

Dear god almighty, you are 100% correct. Content aggregation is rough for most of us.

Holzkohlen, in Oh no ...

I am slowly going insane with KDE Plasma freezing up every time there is even remotely something accessing my drive. Not sure if I should pin my hoped on Plasma 6 or if I should attempt to move my Arch install over to Cinnamon. Or heck just install Mint and call it a day.

Can vouch for Cinnamon, very snappy and easy to configure, even has an integrated theme downloader like KDE

Have you checked the smart data for that drive? And dmesg for drive or bus resets? A failing drive can cause that freezing problem. If a drive can’t read a sector it will keep trying again and again (without TLER anyway. And how much it tries before giving up depends on the drive.) It’s been a while but I believe that will put a process in state D - uninterruptible sleep. Which can’t even be killed.

0ddysseus,

I have mint on my big rig, on a new Intel nuc laptop, on 2 VMS, on 2 proxmox VMS, on my home file server made of old parts, on another laptop from like 2005, and now on a wyse 5060 terminal.

All of them run perfectly, connect to file shares, automatically find my printer, etc. Not one crash ever, and it all works like clockwork day in and day out. I’m halfway through baldurs gate 3 on the big rig now and can play it remotely via xrdp from the laptop.

If you want a system that works and let’s you get on with life I’d reccomend it

POV: you don’t have a life and you spend your time making new accounts to troll and bait people with racism because nobody loves you and receiving hate is the closest you’ll get to socializing.

Karcinogen, in Monster

Frankenstein is a surname. The mad scientist’s name was Dr. Victor Frankenstein. Since the monster wasn’t endowed with a first name, the only name it would have is Frankenstein: the same last name as its father.

prenatal_confusion,

The assumption being that he is a child of some sorts for doctor Frankenstein. I haven’t read the book.

lnee,

He clearly men’t the xkcd version of Frankenstein

To be fair, nix would probably be a lot more intuitive if commands were in black speech instead

This is an urban legend and shame on OP for perpetuating it. The only verifiable instances of open source operating systems found in Halloween candy were installed by the children’s parents themselves.

I compiled Firefox from source on my laptop for shits and giggles one time. Poor i3-5005U took a good 24 hours to do it

bitsplease, in Updates

So, what? We’re just straight up making shit up about Mac now when trashing it on Lemmy?

Its literally been over a decade since the last time Apple charged for an OS update

Established_Trial,

And I believe they stopped charging for OS updates before Microsoft did, though I could be misremembering.

bitsplease,

They 100% did

Don’t get me wrong, there’s plenty to gripe about with apple, just like every tech company, but I swear half the complaints I hear about Apple products on lemmy are either outdated or just plain wrong

For some reason the anti-Apple circle jerk is supercharged on Lemmy. I’ll never understand why people get themselves so worked up over a brand they never have to do business with

And that’s just a subset of Debian distros. Debian is like 1/2 of the height of the tree
