  • Variants and derivates of Debian on my servers and other headless devices because no reason except I know it, it is stable, it works.

    Been trying linux for desktop every five-ten years for the last twenty odd years and went back to Windows every time because it was too bad experience despite I really tried to like it.

    Except this time.

    Fedora KDE on my laptop, soon on my stationary as well. No more Windows for me.




  • Yeah because you started talking about something that was well beyond the scope of what I was suggesting. You could also have said “thanks, but I want to keep this in my laptop because reasons” it would have been clear and consistent but instead you started rambling about seemingly tangiental other aspects of your project. Neither me or anybody else has any obligations to bend over backwards to come up solutions for you. We throw out ideas and maybe you can find something that brings you forward.

    But certainly, I won’t bother trying to help you again. Ta ta.






  • Then we do not agree at all. I think key is to help people to help themselves to learn, sometimes by telling them to figure it out themselves when you know it is something that is an easy peasy figure for anybody that actually makes an attempt at it. Not to provide answers until you feel the community is big enough to not accept slop any more because arbitrary feels and then abandon ship. And who are you to decide and tell people to leave, me now and others later? Putting on some tall horse big balls pants there my dude community boss.

    Btw, none of this is what enshittification means, just for your information. And as a gift, I bestow upon you this quest to learn what it actually means, all by yourself! It will provide you with knowledge and skills to carry for the rest of your life. Yay! You may now downvoted because I made you pissy, but sometimes getting pissy is required for personal growth.




  • I told op they could solve this problem themselves in the same time they asked others to do it for them, which my follow up prove they could. OP gave no indication or information of making any attempts to find information or solve it themselves or why they would have hardships doing so, only a complaint that software A doesn’t function like software B. I’m glad to help when someone is struggling, but at least try something yourself first.

    Yeah, frankly, I’m so tried of people doing exactly this when information on the topic is plentiful at the bare minimum of effort. I think it is plain laziness and from the time of forums and news groups it was considered arrogance to expect others to donate time for your non issues.

    But I’m glad you are stimulated.

    Btw, how do I make a bechamel? How do I convert between Celsius and Fahrenheit? Is this an excellent use case for ChatGPT if I can’t be arsed to use search engines?




  • They are not following an ideology and they are not cartoon villains that must be consequently evil against everyone and everything at every time. They have no blocks to do so if it serves their self interest or satisfaction. Sometimes it is more beneficial and/or satisfactory with a partner or a transactional relationship or to fulfill some other purpose.
