  • Linux Mint 22.2 beta to bring fingerprint login, better themes, and Wayland fixes

    Jump

  • it’ll also add a new XApp called Fingwit, which provides built-in support for fingerprint login, screensaver unlock, and sudo authentication. If it needs to, the app will fall back to password entry.

    Okay why is your distro the best?

  • It's decent, but screw using someone's personal distro. Glorious literally dropped every scrap of his default de config, and switched to another. No transition, no migration, just deleted everything and went on with his day.

  • Careful there. You are only a half dozen abstraction layers away from reinventing NixOS.

  • Emacs From Scratch

    Jump

  • IMO that's not realistic for beginners.

    I don't think a beginner that's just starting to learn a tool is likely to make significant modifications any time soon. I've been using doom for like 10 years and so far I've only needed to make small changes.

    And when they try to change anything, they'll search "how to set shortcut in doom Emacs" and immediately get the correct answer. If they search for "how to set shortcut in Emacs" they'll get 50 different methods using 10 different package managers.

    And besides that. Learning how to make small modifications to Doom is incomparably easier than building a whole config from scratch. I quit Emacs the first time exactly because of that massive hurdle.

  • Emacs From Scratch

    Jump

  • Don't start from scratch, you'll give up long before you get a half decent config. Instead use a "distro" like Doom Emacs or Spacemacs.

    If you really want to, get a copy of Mastering Emacs. Afaik it's the best resource around.

    Jump

  • Because it lets me use a list of packages instead of needing to remember what to install, has every package I need and let's me use them without installing them, and has a good rollback system to go along with cutting edge packages.

  • Why no central script repository?

  • Or nix/guix/flatpak/appimage

  • The trait hides only the spell’s spellcasting actions and manifestations, not its effects, so an observer might still see a ray streak out from you or see you vanish into thin air.

  • Advice on migrating from Ubuntu server to another server OS

    Jump

  • I'm currently running a home server using Ubuntu OS, but I'd like to try and explore other options for operating systems to better my skills with linux/unix.

    What are you hoping to explore? Distrohopping servers is pretty much pointless, especially if you're using docker.

    Like you're going to use dnf to install docker instead of apt, maybe configure selinux instead of apparmor, and that's it. Definitely not worth it IMO.

  • What's your "Oh fuck, that actually worked!" Linux moment that made you feel like a wizard?

  • This kinda implies there was one good Nazi

    There was that one Nazi doctor in China saving civilians from Japanese horrors. They even built a statue for him after the war.

  • Must fight temptation to buy an overpriced raspberry pi

    Jump

  • Why use a pi instead of a microcontroller?

  • Just wanted to show off the lowest end hardware I [OOP] ever ran Linux on

    Jump

  • Have you tried antix? It's basically Debian for old computers.

    Very weird it can't play videos at all. I installed Linux on a friend's old <1gb ram laptop and it's even able to play 480p YouTube.

    Also, I wouldn't run xfce on it, it's barely lighter than KDE.
