No worries, really, just made me smirk on seeing lol

It’s even funnier because the title uses the word “useful” and then shows a screenshot including reddit – lol

For this exact reason i feel the fediverse should operate on #hashtags and the user should subscribe to their mods who will mark content for exclusion and filtration.

Meaning that instead of a ultimatum users can participate regardless of if bad mods ruin a community as per reddit /r/linux being ruined by loco mods.

This fiefdom format where topics are arbitrated and drum headded by fief lords is archaic and antiquated.

When the wrong man uses the right means, then the right means work in the wrong way.

Its our job to create systems that prevent this as much as possible through good design.

Is this why people use Zen?

Be sure to wear your hacking goggles while flying through hyperspace, wouldn’t wanna catch any bugs in your eyes at such fast speeds.

Fantastic to hear! wonderful news. Racists and Xenophobes will try to stop global collaboration, but the real conflict that matters will always be the smart vs the lowiq. FOSS is about humanity first and not any particular sub-category. Everyone who gets in the way is trying to divide and stop FOSS from saving the planet.

The kernel’s american now?! WTF?

Now we see the intended outcome of the “Inclusively” movement of the past few years.

I can’t wait to see this “Inclusively” extended to China, India, Brazil and others.

We’ll truly be the most Inclusive ever!!! What a great thing!!!

Since Minecraft blew up with 12 year olds using potatoe hardware I think the criteria required would be:

1. 12 year old thinks name is great and can spell it

2. it can run on a potatoe

Fuck the supply chain that purposely cock blocks The Linux Phone & innovation too.

This was my first thought as well. Then just hope you are a tru goodboi and the establishment doesn’t stop taking kindly to you.

Add in manual btrfs snapshots prior to usage too, having a “undo” on thousands of photo alternations is optimal if the script eats your photos.

is there a website with all the redhat box art of that time.

I remember having this box or another similar.

The .1 is very memorable.

Sometimes it’s nice to put the ADHD away and just have simple fucking interfaces without all the stupid distractions.

This was my exact experience browsing the Social Media on gemini:// – it was glorious how less can actually be more.

Typically the user group is identical to the username but not always. For example a name containing uppercase letters may be transformed to be all lowercase for the user but contain both cases in the group.

Thus you should get the user group in scripting separate from $USER

Ubuntu is a fine “nice to meet you” distro – the criticisms I’ve gathered happen a few months in. Nvidia+Xorg updates dropping GUI to TUI, MDADM shitting the bed and dropping RAID, the awkward 6 month upgrades where you go from old weird issues in apps to new weird issues – thou snap and flatpak improve this a lot over stock.

Canonical NIH, Canonical CLA agreement, history of charging forward only to abandon in house tech over and again after users get comfy.

Then there are inner politics and the occasional hankyness inside, or discourteousness like when they shit the bed dropping lib32 without talking to partnrrs like Valve on how this would effect their business after they made Ubuntu their target.

Criticisms typically are based in something. I had started using Ubuntu since 2004 IIRC and its been an interesting ride.

Oh also, PPA’s, avoid those, they’re not stock and don’t be surprised if your OS doesn’t boot with the less than stellar ones not staying in sync with the latest kernel updates.

YMMV and this is by no means advice on your personal fit.

Personally I am not fond of most casual user low barrier distros but I still recommend them. Manjaro, PopOS, LinuxMint, Endless, are all fine options depending on what kind of user.

I recently recommended one to a GameDev and considering SteamOS is Arch he decided on Manjaro over Debian.

YMMV, and its important to listen first to people to see what they want their machine to do.

One last criticism of Canonical and Ubuntu. Their HQ is UK based and I honestly wonder how the culture effects development. Germany, UK, California all have different “feels”, its hard to be more specific.

Choice is good, always keep your data backed up and the @home on a different partition. The differences across distros are largely not a big deal like they used to be. People find solus in being captain of their Linux adventure and even Ubuntu will do just fine at the basics, just know if you hit a snag it may not be like that on every distro.
