Eh nothing too alarming. At the time I installed it arch was still requiring a full build from scratch without a Gui installer. I’d definitely go back when I reinstall next time.

Hard to take the comment seriously when there’s no reasoning behind it lol. Working fine for me for a few years now.

I’ve been happiest with arch, then later manjaro since I didn’t have to build it but it’s still arch.

There’s a lot more software for it with access to AUR. Personally I find it works well for me and I’ve been using arch and arch-based since 2015.

In case it wasn’t clear, I use arch btw.

Ah yes, just like you had that option with the windows key right?

It’s already bad enough that windows 11 has a bing AI button on the top left AND top right corners of the start menu. Like wtf

Also known as fist+c

I can’t wait to no longer find a keyboard without this key.

Good point. The company would not only save money by not buying windows, but by not even having an IT department

Not as “safe” as you think in that regard (I use arch btw), the reason they don’t want it is because you lose control as the administrator. Once everyone is running some flavour of Linux and people report problems, guess who’s gotta look at it? The IT department. It’s a management nightmare compared to windows.

Yeah I’m only running it because truenas scale uses it

This could be it, but I also remember reading once it might be something to do with php.ini timeout settings too

I’m still too container stupid to understand the right way to do this. I’m running it in docker under kubernetes and sometimes I don’t update nextcloud for a long time then I do a container update and it’s all fucked because of incompatible php versions of some shit.

Updating from my experience is not Russian roulette. It always requires manual intervention and drives me mad. Half the time I just wget the new zip and copy my config file and restart nginx lol.

Camera upload has been fantastic for Android, but once in a while it shits its brains out thinking there are conflicts when there are none and I have to tell it to keep local AND keep server side to make them go away.

Holy fuck I forgot about this video. Classic.

Literally used it last weekend. If you’re in an open space it works really well.

Not trying to sell you on it, you do what works best for you. Truenas scale is an operating system built on Debian. There will be no packages for it. It’s hard to explain until you start using it. I came from VMs on truenas core for many years and it was annoying to migrate to docker but after I used it for a while I liked it a lot more. It’s hard to explain without just using it, so if you’re not into playing around and what you have works great, then great. I’ve been working with jails and VMs and containers for well over 15 years since I work in IT so I’ve played with big and small systems. There are definitely some annoyances when it comes to the VM approach.

Your data footprint would be less. Maintenance is a breeze. If you update your image and it breaks, just roll it back. Less consumption of resources. No need to divide your storage and ram for VMs. There are millions of docker images so you can start something new in seconds. And the learning curve isn’t too bad if you’re on truenas scale. Truenas core is a NAS operating system built on freebsd (Unix), and truenas scale is built on Linux. Both use ZFS for the underlying storage.

On truenas scale though it’s just tiles in a web browser, it’s super easy. And since it runs on ZFS backups are easier too. Just click your way through periodic volume snapshot tasks.

Definitely a bit of a learning curve but it’s a sleek setup once you understand.

See am I crazy or didn’t google say this was a thing coming ages ago?

Also disabling apps. Am I also crazy or did that come and go and only ever work on certain ones? I really do sometimes find it useful to disable apps instead of uninstalling them. When you uninstall you need to configure them all over again when you do the reinstall.

Maybe I’m confused on the KDE connect part, but you can install KDE connect on windows.

Dex is cool, wanted this too, I’d probably make good use of this type of capability on the steam deck instead though.
