Downvotes are not a reflection on you, they are a representation of how much everyone else agrees or disagrees.

I don’t personally want the downvotes hidden or removed like how it is on Youtube.

luthis, 1 year ago (edited 1 year ago) to linux in As a normal, boring user that does nothing special other than browse the internet and the occasional "casual coding" -- what am I supposed to do with 32GiB of ram?

After boot, I’m using 2GB. I haven’t noticed Linux doing the ram-hog thing like Windows at all. But Firefox is currently using 8GB.

Just restarted Firefox and it’s using 2.5GB now. I think it stores a lot in ram from video.

Systemd is amazing. Every user should at least know the basics.

Open the SVG and have a look at what’s happening during boot.

journalctl -b will give you some more info too. If you’re using grub to boot (probably in /boot/grub/grub.cfg), you can change the loglevel and add the udev option to get a bunch more info. Helped me with a random issue recently. Here’s mine for an example:

I would so read that book.

luthis, 1 year ago to linux in How do I get Nviddia drivers to work in arch?

Have you tried pacman -Syu nvidia?

luthis, 1 year ago to linux in Does `cp -v` print out the file name when it starts copying it or when it's done?

All hail the rsync!

We thank the rsync for it’s unwavering reliability.

Amen.

luthis, 1 year ago to linux in Noob question: what to arrange before switching to linux

Note that there isn’t a Linux version of the protondrive app. … I know! what the fuck right?

Secondly, I would just shove Linux Mint onto a USB and use that as a live distro with persistence for a while, just to get used to things. I’m not a fan of debian(/-based) or apt, but it works.

We don’t, it’s a psy-op.

luthis, 1 year ago to linux in Enabling Bluetooth on Arch Linux

There is an archinstall script??

luthis, 1 year ago to linux in What do you think about this?

I’ve been using Arch for years and can’t pull myself away because everything just works. Whats the difference between arch and whatever the derivatives are? I don’t even know what distros to arch are the Ubuntu / mint to debian

luthis, 1 year ago to linux in What happens when Linus dies/retires?

You’re right, I am not.
