Wanting to improve my Linux skills after 17 months of daily driving Linux

I’ve been daily driving Linux for 17 months now (currently on Linux Mint). I have got very comfortable with basic commands and many just works distros (such as Linux Mint, or Pop!_OS) with apt as the package manager. I’ve tried Debian as a distro to try to challenge myself, but have always ran into issues. On my PC, I could...

You have a wife, we get it.

Less than once a year for me. I don't remember it breaking in the last few years.

The instance shit means that no single entity holds all the power over Lemmy.

kpw,

You should have seen Lemmy before June 2023. All posts were from the same five people. For now the community seems to be alive and healthy.

Something felt wrong using Windows. It felt right when I switched to Linux.

Honestly, I wouldn't worry too much about how the OS works. If you're very ambitious, you could try to install Arch in a virtual machine environment: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Installation_guide

kpw,

Why CS lecturers? Have you seen the code that comes with PhD theses? Academics aren't necessarily the best programmers out there.

How to make sure the fascist wins: get liberals to vote third party.

It's quite telling that in Austria the far right wants to stop financing the ORF altogether by talking about how the population is forced to pay ORF fees and that it has a left wing bias.

kpw,

The war has slowed down too. It's doesn't need some kind of conspiracy for the media to jump on the next exiting event when the previous one grows stale.

kpw,

Just because some tankies on Lemmy don't like to hear it doesn't mean it's not an issue anymore.
