It seems to hit that right balance of bleeding edge while SUSE are still testing the packages for a bit to ensure there aren’t bad updates. Fedora sounds interesting to me as well, but I’m not going to fix what isn’t broken.

OpenSUSE Tumbleweed Gang. The only distro I haven’t been able to break after 6 months (well, I have, but I’ve been able to snapper rollback every time)

Haha, nice

Had Jellyseer break on me again on Truenas scale, something about a jellyfin API blah blah blah. Decided that Sonarr and Radarr are fine enough to interface with that I don’t need it and deleted the image.

Gods, now where on earth did we put that copy pasta…

These are the same picture

Ah thank you, seems like he knows as much bash as me!

I’m not very good at bash at all. I was hoping someone would explain what he’s trying to say to me.

I feel that “found at” wouldn’t be a terminal printout followed by the home reference, but he’s saying the woke mond virus is on the device?

Is he saying it’s a program that “deleted” the ability to “rm -rf”? Why would removing files (recursively and forced) be something it would do? Why would the options -rf be there? Wouldn’t it be enough to delete the rm binary?

Traceroute woke mind virus, is woke mind virus an IP address or something? I thought it was a program based on the above lines. He’s expecting to find the route to the woke mind virus IP address with this command?

What is Elon saying?

I did a physics degree and am comfortable with Joules, but in the context of electricity bills, kWh makes more sense.

All appliances are advertised in terms of their Watt power draw, so estimating their daily impact on my bill is as simple as multiplying their kW draw by the number of hours in a day I expect to run the thing (multiplied by the cost per kWh by the utility company of course).

I was really confused by that and that the decided units weren’t just in W (0.1 kW is pretty weird even)

Agreed, especially if the point is to breathe life into old hardware.

Omg lol

I hear that particular 2 weeks is all the difference

He looks pretty young for a 99 year old. Would have put him at early 80s.

The complete removal of bloat.

As the other commenter said, time shift will save you too. Snapper built into Tumbleweed is pretty good though as well as YasT.

As an NVIDIA user, snapper has saved me multiple times.

Have got two of my family members onto bitwarden and even that is a lot for the tech-illiterate. Couldn’t imagine Keepass+syncthing.

Ultimately, bitwarden is better than using hunter12 for everything like how they were.

Hahaha, touché. To be fair though, a lot of people struggle with email.

And if an easier version of email existed, email mightn’t have caught on.

He’s more than capable of joining the fediverse, but he’s also a UI/UX designer. I would say his main issue with the fediverse is the amount of friction between a normie being exposed to the concept and actually signing up and engaging with it.

You have to admit that it isn’t the simplest thing to do. People have to understand the concept of the fediverse, find an instance that will accept them, sign up (with confirmation required from the instance mods) and then find out how to find communities that they are interested in.

It’s not about whether a tech-savvy person can figure it out with some effort, it’s about whether normal people can transition away from a monolithic, streamlined, social media to it.
