hottari,

I’d wear that. Looks cool.

hottari,

I use this to catch up on news from channels like Al Jazeera.

hottari,

You can pin the Nvidia driver with flatpak mask appname and update the rest of your apps.

hottari,

Great. I like being able to deny apps permission to my home folder with a simple flick via Flatseal. Only issue I have with it is the slow update times, flathub seriously need to get more mirrors.

hottari,

Piped uses less CPU on client playback and features like dash actually work as opposed to invidious. But I’m glad creating a piped instance on docker is complicated because I like the simplicity of invidious’ UI.

hottari,

Use whatever software your peers are using, the way they are using them. The importance of software compatibility cannot be overstated.

hottari,

I’ve done rm -rf / twice on Fedora installs.

hottari,

I’ve broken installations many many times. But here’s a recent one that comes to mind.

I was playing around with audit and some file was not responding as I wanted it to. Somehow my pea brain got the great idea to remove all config, uninstall audit then have the new install refresh the configs. Did this straight through the warnings and effectively broke sudo, a dependency of audit. Good thing arch-chroot exists.

Switched to Linux, don't know what to do

Hello everyone, I just installed Linux (I’m new to it), in particular Linux Mint, with dual booted Windows for games. Tinkered with it a bit, loved the way it looked, loved how fast it is, but I really don’t want to stop on one option and stick with it for a while. I want to try new stuff, new distros (that’s how you call...

hottari,

If you are talking about the arch installer. It’s still a commandline. Nothing like the popular calamares GUI installer. Anyone can follow steps to an install easy. The real juice is in maintenance of the installation.

hottari,

Check out a few videos on how to install Arch Linux. It will cover all your needs and then some.

hottari,

Why shouldn’t we? The guy raises a valid point.

hottari,

Must have missed it. TIL a Lemmy inside joke.

hottari,

Doesn’t sound like he is.

hottari,

An /s would have been in order.

hottari,

Join the Chromium monopoly it is the superior browser. Aside from not having tab containers, it beats Firefox is almost every other way.

hottari,

Did you know Firefox has also adopted manifest V3.

hottari,

Another reason to use VPN/Tor.

hottari,

There are no ways to beat this. They want your real number. That’s the point.

hottari,

The economy has never been stronger. If you don’t count the few tech & crypto focused banks that collapsed early in the year.

hottari,

Not a single mention of secure boot? Weird.

I would say you are already secure enough if you are using software from official/trusted repositories and updating them on a regular basis.

That said, if you want extra security. Drop all software that cannot run on Wayland and go even further by isolating all desktop applications with the Flatpak sandbox. This is made extremely easy with Flatseal. Maximum points if you setup secure boot.

hottari,

It appears to be possible flathub.org/apps/com.protonvpn.www

hottari,

You are entitled to your own opinion but it’s because of Google’s content monetization strategies that user-generated videos now include native content ads. Content creators are following the money. I don’t have to agree with them, Google or your nonsense opinion.

hottari,

The tags should be switched for the images. Vaccine scientists let us all down. Don’t think I’ll ever trust vaccines ever again.

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

hottari,

Flatpak for all *possible installs of user apps. But if there’s an app I respect most, it has to be MPV.

hottari,

Aside from the fact that I’ve used it long enough without encountering any breaking issues or bugs, it is very powerful and highly customizable.
