Cwilliams,

Do you have any resources for doing Btrfs snapshots? I already use Btrfs, but I’ve never really caught on to the whole snappshotting thing

Cwilliams,

One time I was creating custom Arch Install media, and I thought I had mounted the USB drive’s partitions, but I had actually mounted my own system’s partitions. When I ran pacstrap, it actually ran on my own system, but, by some miracle, didn’t completely nuke it.

Cwilliams,

My friend has been complaining about this! Glad to see it fixed

Cwilliams,

Well that’s because any support for it is unofficial. NTFS is made for Windows

Cwilliams,

I didn’t want to sound to harsh, but yea

Cwilliams,

Yep. LM or Ubuntu is my recommendation to newbies

Is linux good for someone tech illererate.

Now i’ve been considering moving to linux. I don’t have much of a history using a computer and find it tougher to use than my phone. But I also really appreciate the foss movement. I’ve currently got an old laptop running windows 11 I think and it would prolly speed up with linux too. But I’m afraid I’d fuck smth up...

Cwilliams,

Beautifully said

Cwilliams,

Man, I laughed so hard at this one

Cwilliams,

Typed with thumb-key. This is so hard, but im determined :)

recommendations for lightweight window managers for an old netbook

Hi, I’ve got an old netbook from Samsung that has an old Intel Atom CPU (Intel Atom N455 1.66 GHz). I installed Arch on it and am now thinking of a suitable window manager. I tried Hyprland (kinda expecting it to not work really) whick didn’t start at all. Before I had Debian with Gnome, which technically worked, but...

Cwilliams,

Since Wayland is lighter than X.org, LabWC could be another option. It is not fully compatable with Openbox, but most Openbox configs work on LabWC

Cwilliams,

Maybe except KDE

Cwilliams,

I don’t know what linux is but it can’t be worse than Windows.

Lmao

Cwilliams,

Malwarebytes for me, but same thing

Cwilliams,

Lol that actually works so well

Cwilliams,

Why is Grey not on Lemmy yet?

Cwilliams,

Tor merch is fire 🔥

Cwilliams,

But how long did it take you to get there? I think the point he was trying to make is that GIMP has a steeper learning curve. If you’ve never used krita/pinta/etc, but you gave a lot experience with GIMP, then yes, GIMP will be easier

Cwilliams,

Personally, I’ve never had an Arch update break my system. But it’s probably only a matter of time

Cwilliams, (edited )

The iA Writer fonts are quite nice, but super proprietary and not neccesary by any means

Cwilliams,

Ad guard DNS is super easy to set up, too. Basically ad blocking with zero tradeoff

Cwilliams,

Even if Ubuntu does start doing slightly sketchy things, they’ll still be a million times better than Windows or MacOS

Cwilliams,

I wonder if this technology could be used in OBS’s screen recording?

Cwilliams,

Cwilliams,

Thunar

Cwilliams,

I presume that only works if you use spice, tho
