Honestly its probably a better user experience

in your opinion what is the worst distro?

i have been letting that ask sit in my inbox for three days now and i spent more time seriously thinking about this than i would like to admit honestly? beside the meme distros like amogos, i don't think there is any "you should never use this ever" bad distro. i have some preferences. i didn't really have a good time with manjaro personally. but bad? no, just not what i needed.

so, like... i dunno. i guess the one i didn't like is the worst for me.

Can’t wait for, like, 2025 when we look back on the 2018/2019 era and say “hey, remember when we were all really freaking depressed? That was a crazy time! Glad we aren’t like that anymore”

non-daily reminder to run the occasional "flatpak remove —unused"

we should have more bash commands with animal names. cat is great, but what about dog, raccoon or octopus? I want to sudo octopus my files.

The trick is to change your root mount to use the snapshot subvolume instead

btrfs tip for y'all: use subvolumes. restoring a snapshot of a subvolume is as simple as duplicating the snapshot as readwrite, deleting/moving the old subvolume and renaming the copy to the subvolume's name

restoring a snapshot of the root subvolume is. harder

hey, privacy concerned folks,

DON'T USE BALENA ETCHER TO USB YOUR ISOs

As @tailsos-official stated in their blog post, it displays ads which is weird for a simple disk imaging tool and more important:

It shares your IP address, the file name of the image the model of the USB stick and a bunch of other things with the Balena company and third parties.

On Windows, use Rufus instead. It's pretty neat.

On Mac, use the Raspberry Pi Imager. It does its job. Or if you don't mind the terminal, use dd. It's built-in.

On Linux you can use dd, or whatever comes with your DE. Or whatever else you prefer. We got options.

You can also use Ventoy and just chuck all your ISOs on it. No need to reformat your usb drives again just for a new boot stick. One USB to rule them all.

balenaEtcher exfiltrates very sensitive information about its users to the Balena company and probably to more third-parties. For example:

bat at hornets nest maybe but "there is no ethical consumption under capitalism" refers to low income communities needing to choose between survival vs being eco friendly. not you continuing to watch the harry potter movies

So idk who needs to hear this but if you're building an Appliance powered by Linux with its own installer ISO, do not base it on oracle. And if you do, do not use their installer.

older I get the less interest I have in explaining myself to people who aren’t even important to me. if you want to misunderstand me or create a narrative in your head about me that’s really not my problem… I know who I am

im so serious about this but if youre autistic and especially if youre chronically ill creative labour cannot be your only way to relax. working on a creative project is still working. take time to do nothing. its good for you i promise.

my old lady's mind can't comprehend discord, I miss forums
