It BSOD’ed its last screen.

Fuck that OS.

onlinepersona,

I recognise those acronyms. They are from a bygone era my ancestors used to mention to me in hushed tones.

onlinepersona,

awesome?

onlinepersona,
  1. It probably uses apks.
onlinepersona,

Why not move to NixOS?

onlinepersona,

Until the kernel updates to something unsupported and you find out that they don’t keep old kernels in the rolling release. An amazing experience.

Damn… that looks like a lot of work. Did you write your own theme?

onlinepersona,

I had it on two systems. Some peripherals stopped working after an update on one system and the attempt to downgrade it to the LTS (Leap?) failed miserably --> Ubuntu. On another one the graphics card stopped working and somehow forced it to the LTS with a custom kernel. That worked until trying to upgrade it by two minor releases (X.2 to X.4? Can’t remember if it was 13.Y 14.Y or 15.Y). There were so many conflicts and messing around with the source lists (or whatever they’re called)…

It was the most difficult system to update that I’ve ever had. YaST is great though. Best GUI for system configuration I’ve had so far.

onlinepersona,

Intruiging 🤔 There are something things like that which I’ve wanted to write for years!

onlinepersona,

I concur. Streaming isn’t an option for everybody. Paid services removing the option to download thus force all those people who can’t stream, to pirate. They create the problem and provide no legal solution 🤷

onlinepersona,

Welcome to the degoogled fold 🤗

onlinepersona,

OAuth? Do you mean 2FA? OAuth just requires you to be able to open a URL so all you need a browser. (see the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OAuth#/media/File:Abstract-flow.png)

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...

Sail!

(We need some piracy memes with this)

onlinepersona,

Both are inferior to IDEs when working locally on a software project 🤷

onlinepersona,

A vim user finding nano too difficult? Impressive.

onlinepersona,

Pirates have known this for decades. Buy DRMed media means you can lose access to it at any time. And these subscription services that limit access for paid services e.g as soon as you travel, access to certain stuff is lost, sometimes the access to the entire service is lost. Additionally, for some reason, pirated stuff often has better quality than paid stuff - it’s something I cannot fathom.

It was possible to get pirated 4k stuff as soon as it was released years ago, but most paid services couldn’t provide that. The biggest reason being you couldn’t buffer it. It only buffers a few seconds and then stops. Pirated stuff can be downloaded ahead of time and watched without buffering on a shit connection.

Fuck Netflix. What I hated most about them was they decided during the pandemic that too many people were watching stuff at 1080p, so they dropped the quality of streams to 720p. Lol. A great way to get people to pirate.

onlinepersona,

The dude on the right is some neckbeard who yells “RTFM” and “i use Arch btw ;)” IRL.

onlinepersona,

LMAO. That’s hilarious, babe.

onlinepersona,

You’ll be able to (among other things) open a merge request from another instance. Gitlab and other source forges require you to create an account on each instance you want to contribute to.

What rules?

onlinepersona,

🤔 Why is that?
