That’s what I was wondering. Seems like a recipe for disaster having your main system be several versions behind them shoehorning bleeding dependencies for AUR programs into the mix.

I’ve messed up my system so many times over the years that now I think I secretly get excited when it accidentally happens. Maybe I’m a masochist, but I actually enjoy trying to understand what went wrong. A USB stick with a light weight Linux distro and chroot you can usually get back in there and look around at the damage.

As someone who’s exclusively used tiling WM for the past few years you can do anything a full blown DE. I like them for a couple of reasons:

1. they don’t come with any extra software that I will never use.
2. They’re light weight with minimal overhead
3. They are extremely customizable, key bindings are second nature for me know.

I do use the terminal for a lot of things, but I also use the GUI for lots of stuff like web browsing, graphic editing, and gaming.

Heh, I’ve got 32gb on my Proxmox box, and would be lying if I said I wasn’t eyeballing a few 64 or 128 sticks.

Found this Google docs PDF that’s a pretty good read on it. Keep in mind it’s 5yrs old so some of the recommended indexers and services might have gone off line, but the general info is still true.

*Edit, I know I’m breaking the first rule of Usenet!

I know your looking for torrents, but have you tried going down the nzb rabbit hole?

Same, it’s not my fault Steam sales make me feel like I’d be losing money if I didn’t buy this game right now.

Only Apple fanboys care. I’ve heard from them that green bubbles are for poor people. It’s kinda funny they how brainwashed some of them are. Although I will concede that SMS sucks compared to Apple’s and the equivalent apps on android are to fractured for consistency.

Where’s that package manager tho?

AntennaPod. It’s easily the best podcast player I’ve tried, it’s open source too which is nice.

Kagi. It’s a subscription but it has a lot of good features and no advertised.

I haven’t used Google search in years. Their monopoly on the Internet is really trash.

I’m off the opinion that no animal would be beneficial to remove. In almost every instance where we have exterminated a species there has been negative unanticipated consequences. Even mosquitos and bed bugs, there are predators that eat them and subsequent predators that eat them and so on. It’s kind of like the butterfly effect. It’s a balance formed from eons of coexistence that is not to be tampered with. There is so many examples where scientists try to introduce an animal to exterminate another that has gone horribly wrong. Regardless of my opinion, all living things have a part in our world. I’m not a vegetarian btw, but I do use Arch.

That was unexpectedly awesome.

I was going to ask if these things are even profitable anymore, but I guess if you’re stealing the electricity it is.

Out of curiosity what is the most modern system you are able to emulate on a steam deck. I’ve dabbled in MAME and PSX before, but is there a decent PS3 one?

I tried to do a copy cat Chick-fil-A sandwich the other day, and the recipe I followed had me brine the chicken in pickle juice. 🤌

I would say if anything MPV player can play more types of video than VLC.

I think you brought up a good point in that Microsoft conditions people to expect a certain behavior from their PC. Some of that is ease of use at there expense of privacy, forced unavoidable updates, and individual software solutions that handles their respective updates.
