GustavoM@lemmy.worldto Linux@lemmy.ml•A month with LFS (Linux From Scrath) + musl + eudev + libressl + qi package builder helper. What a great experience.English103·3 months agoYou will go back to your “usual” linux setup when you realize that most packages you set up with LFS are now broken and you’ll need to redo the whole process again.
t. arch linux minimal installation only master race
GustavoM@lemmy.worldto Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•Could I theoretically keep gaming on windows 10, while doing any other work (banking etc) on linux?English2·3 months agoAbsolutely yes. You’d be better buying a dedicated PC for Linux tho.
t. Got a Orange pi 5 MAX with Linux installed. It’s tricky to set up, but worths a lot in the end (low power usage while providing a decent performance – can be used as a “mini server” to host your own personal file server or anything else you’d like while providing a smooth experience for anything your job may require from it.)
GustavoM@lemmy.worldto Linux@lemmy.ml•If you have to pick only one Desktop Environment and use it till your computer breaks, what would you choose?English7·3 months agoI don’t mind a little “change” every now and then, but still – “Sway” on my “potatoes” (Orange pi zero 3 and Orange pi 5 max) and “Hyprland” on my x86_64 PC.
GustavoM@lemmy.worldto Linux@lemmy.ml•How To Become A Hacker: A Step-By-Step GuideEnglish20·3 months agoHow to become a hacker
Average Linux user: Hack the white house
Your mom: Install pi-hole
GustavoM@lemmy.worldto Linux@lemmy.ml•What's the best way to create dedicated devices with Linux?English7·3 months agoDietpi user here. I’ve got a orange pi zero 3 w/ 1GiB of ram serving me nextdns under docker + playing a live stream 24/7 (via yt-dlp/ffplay) and it does its job just nicely.
GustavoM@lemmy.worldto Linux@lemmy.ml•How to have a boring and low-maintenance system?English14·3 months agoNice cherry picking/moving the goalpost, but that is not how refuting works. A PC at NASA has a much higher “threat level” than my Orange pi zero 3, just chilling on the background. Which means, a potential “security hole” may prove harmful for these pcs… but it’ll definitely not hurt me in the slightest.
And before you parrot with other links and/or excuses… yes, I’m not negating their existence. I’m just saying they are there… but, well… “who cares”? If anything, its much faster to set up my distro back up “just like never happened before” than performing any “maintenance” whatsoever. Again, “Common sense antivirus” reigns supreme here – know what you are doing, and none of these things will matter.
GustavoM@lemmy.worldto Linux@lemmy.ml•How to have a boring and low-maintenance system?English32·3 months agoAll you have to do is to install “Common sense antivirus”, pretty much.
GustavoM@lemmy.worldto Linux@lemmy.ml•How to have a boring and low-maintenance system?English25·3 months agoComparing a PC maintenance to leaving the keys outside the front door is too dramatic, to not say the least…
…unless you work at NASA and/or your PC is holding something too valuable/sensitive/high-priority for others to want to hack it “that badly” – which I (highly) doubt it.
GustavoM@lemmy.worldto Linux@lemmy.ml•How to have a boring and low-maintenance system?English104·3 months agoYou simply don’t do any maintenance whatsoever.
t. Got a arch linux install that I (rarely) perform “sudo pacman -Syu --noconfirm” and it works like a champ.
GustavoM@lemmy.worldto Linux@lemmy.ml•Looking for a new distro. Ditching Windows.English8·3 months agoI was about to say that you should learn the “ins and outs” of Linux first before choosing a distro until I’ve noticed these part(s) of your post.
I’ve been toying with Linux on and off for almost 20 years now.
I’m comfortable in the command line
20 years is more than enough time for a user to use Linux properly. And with that in mind, well… you are overthinking it – just go with whatever you want, really.
GustavoM@lemmy.worldto Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•Is Linux Ready For Mainstream Gaming In 2025?English18·3 months agoIf you have lower standards, even a $10 arm pc can be “mainstream”.
Just buy a minipc and use it solely for gaming on Windows if you really need to game.
GustavoM@lemmy.worldto Linux@lemmy.ml•Update: Mining crypto to heat my 1 bedroom flatEnglish51·3 months agoTruth be told, most folks aren’t interested in having a conversation with strangers on the internet – but “use” em as a scapegoat for their personal/irl issues. With that said, the logic behind “downvote-happy” users is simply, “Have this downvote because I’m feeling like shiz and I must downvote you so I can feel a false sense of superiority/intelligence over you and feel less like shiz.”.
GustavoM@lemmy.worldto Linux@lemmy.ml•Update: Mining crypto to heat my 1 bedroom flatEnglish11·3 months agoFor the same reason you typed this post.
GustavoM@lemmy.worldto RetroGaming@lemmy.world•I am personally offended that the XBOX360 is apparently considered retro nowEnglish4·3 months agoMore like the same thing.
At 80’s however will be like “Damn, I used to talk with randoms about my age and making such a big deal in my 20’ties. And now I’m in my 80’ties and I could die in any moment.”
At 100’ties will be like “Ah, fu-”
GustavoM@lemmy.worldto RetroGaming@lemmy.world•I am personally offended that the XBOX360 is apparently considered retro nowEnglish11·3 months agoJust you wait until you reach a point where you think “I used to feel old when I was in my 20’ties. Now I’m really old.”
t. Am 41 years old.
GustavoM@lemmy.worldto RetroGaming@lemmy.world•Fallout and DOOM get combined in the Fallout: Vault 666 modEnglish2·4 months agoA very solid mod indeed. Too bad it has only one map.
GustavoM@lemmy.worldto Linux@lemmy.ml•[UPDATE][SOLVED] What distro would you associate with the tarot card Lucifer/Death?English9·4 months agoA trickster that wants to make a fool of everyone out of pleasures and illusions of grandeur? Definitely Ubuntu. Promises a “easy to use” distro while installing unsolicited packages and fetching unauthorized info without your consent on the background.

That is a bunch of unnecessary noise just because an AI managed to code a working python code for you. Like that’d make your command “cursed” or some sort.
