KDE Plasma. I just like it. It seems to have options to do what I want, for the most part. There’s some things I wish it had, like a way to programmatically get the active window under Wayland, so StreamController could automatically change pages.

I know it’s tangential to your comment, but I need to get this off my chest. I hate when things like Epic’s stance is framed as “not supporting” linux, when in reality they barely need to do anything to let the game run there. What they’re doing is actively detecting and blocking it.

Using pipewire, and I’ve tried both the SB X4 USB DAC, and a SBX AE-5 PCIe card. Obviously being Creative products that’s the cause of my issues, but I have found it very very hard to find alternatives. Every recommended option just supports stereo, it seems.

I think the audio interface thing needs a big asterisk; IF you are only interested in stereo, then it’s not much of an issue. But getting 5.1 to work has been a huge hassle for me.

I’ve had another try, this time I set chattr +C on the image directory just in case my using btrfs was causing issues.

I had a VM but somehow the virtual drive got corrupted? And it wouldn’t let me install, update or uninstall VC++ runtime as a result. I’m gonna try again later, but it’s a worrying start.

The point of use flags is to make it so if you don’t want to print, every package that would otherwise pull in CUPS as a dependency can be compiled without it. Stuff like that.

Gentoo also has a good system for handling multiple concurrent installs of different versions of some packages, e.g python.

If there’s software you want to install from source that uses automake it’s pretty simple to build your own package for it.

Very much a system for doing things your way, and a good way to learn linux IMO. To that end, no there is no installer, but the process is not that complex. Boot a live USB, partition and format a drive, download and extract a base system, install a kernel (there is a fits-most-needs one available now), install a bootloader. Reboot into your new system and continue installing what you need from there.

No, you`re right.

This looks like a python programmer that is mad they have to write C# Java…

C#. Or Python if you must. Don’t use Javascript.

I would like to use IPv6 but google and MS are having a dick waving contest with competing implementations, as I understand it. So fuck it.

Let us know how you go :)

That’s what I’m talking about, yeah. And TBH it’s actually closer to the end than the middle. Also I didn’t find it that big of a deal, but your mileage may vary. I hope you can get past what a bunch of others seem to hate because the payoff is so good.

There is a hurdle late in the game which you’ll know when you hit it, just in case you somehow haven’t heard about it. Do try to get past it though, the payoff is worth it.

Dunno why you got downvoted for this. I don’t see why they’d waste energy etching them when they can just label the tub they’re displayed in.

The antagonist of Cataclysm is actually legitimately scary.

It was a strong point of the original and Cataclysm…

NGL I kinda want a Polestar.

I never liked the idea of my “likes” being a browsable list. What’s the point of retweeting, if likes are browsable?

Glad it 's finally changing. Broken clock, I guess.

Xitter is doing something I want? What’s the catch?
