  • Someone mentioned that it wasn’t being maintained anymore, but if I try void again I’ll have to take a look at that. Though its definitely not the same as a traditional app store interface like gnome software (flawed though it may be) where you can see the icon, screenshots, even reviews, and I would definitely really miss that functionality when browsing for something. And given I use gnome it may be hard to make it look at home on my desktop













  • As in your girlfriend introducing you to guns?

    And absolutely, first aid is essential. If you’re gonna play with things that can injure or kill things in the blink of an eye, you ought to learn how to handle that. I sometimes joke that the kink community puts so much emphasis on consent, negotiating kink interactions, aftercare, etc, because if you’re gonna choose to play with fire you ought to learn how to use a fire extinguisher.

    No one thinks it’ll succeed? Obviously you and I exist in very different parts of the linux sphere, cause I’m pretty sure X11 is all but dead as a project and its kinda just a question of how long it takes for Wayland to be feature complete enough to reach a critical mass of adoption. And its kinda feeling like we’re currently on the cusp of being there with the major DEs moving towards discontinuing X11 support 😅


  • As a largely non-technical linux enjoyer I have such a hard time understanding why people hate systemd so much. If I switched to a distro that uses another init system would my experience be better?

    Like I get that the complaint is partially the philosophy, but it sounds like you also have problems with it in practice and I just can’t really relate to that. I dunno, maybe I just wouldn’t notice if there are problems happening with how my init system is working 🤷





  • Even if you aren’t necessarily looking for a Foss/private stuff I think folks should know not to use evernote by now. It’s been an ever-worsening garbage heap for a long time. When I was in highschool I used it a LOT for a while, and pretty quickly shitty changes started to become commonplace, and it’s been exclusively downhill from there.

    If you’re still using it, its worth looking through the huge number of competitors for something else; you have no shortage of alternative options at this point
