Silly cat :3

I was @backhdlp, but iusearchlinux.fyi just returns 502 right now, so I’m back here

Does Arco do the incomplete update bullshit too or are you just misremembering the command?

You can smell the Manjaro influence from 3 miles away

sudo btrfs subvolumes create /path/to/subvolume

If you don’t configure anything, root will already be a subvolume.

If you wanna make a used directory a subvolume, you have to move the contents first, and move them back after creation.

The only thing that takes time here is the move

Wasn’t aware of that, using snapper for my snapshotting needs.

You can have hourly, daily, weekly, monthly and yearly. I also use snap-pac to make snapshots before and after pacman transactions.

Check out wiki.archlinux.org/title/Snapper

“Next year will be the year of the Linux desktop, I swear”

The trick is to know that this is the decade of the Linux desktop

I reinstall on an estimated average of about monthly, distro hopping skewed that, it so should be around a bit less than bimonthly.

It was intentional, it was just also dumb and a bad decision

Another alternative to not configuring is using someone else’s rice

If you’re on Android, you can look on F-Droid. If you’re on Linux, you can look on Flathub, if your DE doesn’t already include one by default. Thunderbird also has RSS support to my knowledge.

I made it to Linux! What is your must-have FOSS or Free Software for linux?

Thank you so much, comrades! I am feeling pretty comfortable with linux mint, and now would like some suggestions for some absolutely necessary FOSS or free license software for the OS. So far I have the standard, Firefox, ThunderBird, LibreOffice, yada yada. Thank you again to everyone on the linux comm! sankara-salute

fastfetch is neofetch in C instead of bash, makes it much faster.

  • btrfs unless I know I’m not gonna use it that much (might check out bcachefs soon)
  • Kitty as the terminal, life is better without fancy multiplexers
  • Firefox
  • fastfetch > neofetch
  • zsh without oh-my-zsh
  • https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/tbsm as DM (if available)
  • Hyprland as the WM
  • Plasma if I have to use a DE
  • Swapfile instead of partition so I don’t risk losing my data if I don’t have enough memory (haven’t checked out ZRAM yet) Welp that changed quickly, ZRAM looks insane
  • GRUB as bootloader, also a separate install for every distro, kinda just out of fear that I’ll break it somehow

I currently use a ZTE Blade V Smart/ZTE 2050, which cost me 150€, pretty cheap, but still very usable (bought it a few years ago so that exact model isn’t worth it anymore, I had generally not absolutely terrible experience with ZTE phones before, tho). I also have a newer phone that I don’t use for no reason, a Xiaomi Redmi Note 11, which cost me 200€.

Nemo should be enough for your purposes, and probably looks better on GNOME than Dolphin

[discussion]: regarding the best OS for a pirate

This post started out as a question, but throughout two days of googling it became this compilation of links. I will tell you everything worth mention that I found, share my plan with you, and expect some critics (for the infos of course, please not for the silly hyperactivity of my ADHD brain over such a trivial matter 🥲)....

Everyone is a noob when starting out with something (so no)

No matter how good Proton gets, native will still be better.

If Proton sucks for a game, try a different Proton version (maybe even Proton GE), if it still sucks, try a KVM with PCI passthrough. If you don’t wanna do that shit, dual boot.

Also, trying to find support on running pirated games on Linux will get you kicked out of most forums.

Also, Nvidia hardware sucks on Linux

Not really under X11 with the proprietary driver. Also Team Red has good hardware to offer too.
