But it seems like there are other easy distros with lenient requirements that don’t try to force Snaps and ads on their users.

The way Fedora has immutable set up allows you to layer packages on top of a base, and your home directory and etc are both writable. It might be less of a pain in the butt than you think!

This sign is a despicable lie.

MBAs love taking an existing brand and sucking whatever value they can extract. Like chupacabras but for functioning and useful products.

Anything that keeps maps in local storage so you can use GPS while offline is somewhere between very helpful and lifesaving. Sounds like Osmand is in there.

Organic Maps lets you download also. I got it specifically for backpacking because it enabled that. It certainly has been worth the $0. I should probably donate something each trip.

That kind of contribution seems like a lower level of effort than making changes to source code.

The sheets in the motel room, that’s insane. A while back I read something like a stalker caught a reflection in someone’s eye at a train station, that’s horrific enough. But I would have thought being indoors is relatively safe. It is like impossible to put out video content at all without being vulnerable.

How on earth are these psychos able to find streamers’ actual addresses?

It is easy, though? I cannot even use it correctly. I just know some of the commands and that if you hold down shift it goes backwards.

The USB-C power is huge. I don’t know why it is so hard to find. I do not want another massive power brick and barrel connector.

What would you base it on? I’m interested in the DIY approach setting up a router.

I’m about to do some SELinux workarounds. I want to install an SELinux package in a VM to build rpm-ostree images, but installing that breaks the Incus agent inside the VM when it cannot listen on a socket. Any advice on how to go about it? I’m pretty new with anything SELinux.

I do this also except I need to get in the habit of documenting every single problem instead of just recurring ones. I should start using one of those local server shell history databases, too.

If you want atomic Fedora but don’t want to deal with the ignition file stuff, check out Fedora IoT.

It is compiled with LLVM and Clang. Where is the danger of losing cross-platform compatibility? It will be fine.

That same page lists cross-platform CLI and server as intended use cases.

I saw some people talking about niri just recently and plan to give that a try soon.

You’ll be saving lives, yeah, but between dealing with entitled assholes that won’t follow directions and then yell at you because they didn’t.

It’s maybe easy to burn out in any career. Society has deprioritized individual fulfillment for most of us because it harms the nesting levels of billionaires’ yachts.

They force you to re-buy the same software for literally the same hardware. That’s insane.

I installed a new GPU and it changed the device name of my NIC so all my network setup suddenly broke.

Now every ~5th time I wake my computer from sleep the monitor comes on briefly and I then get a black screen. If I turn the monitor off and back on it fixes it.

Would be cool to have more people on Linux finding and fixing these little details.
