  • To be honest, it's just what I've been using since I switched to Cachy half a year ago. There was no conscious decision made between yay or paru.

    I think Go and Rust are both great languages, but there are apparently some speed benefits from using rust/paru. That's not anything I can factually confirm, just what I've heard.

  • Heck yeah! I hope it helps simplify things!

    This might be the first time my limited Linux knowledge has been helpful to an internet stranger. Feels good.

  • Does paru -Syu not also include pacman, or do you just prefer to do pacman first?

  • "Our team focuses on Linux for many ASUS hardware..."

    I wish ASUS would focus on their hardware, too.

  • It's a bucket list item to someday have a pull request merged into a branch of the Linux kernel.

  • ..if this works for my use-case I'm going to kiss your feet.

  • Linux hobbiest for a couple decades, began daily driving a couple months ago. My workflows for graphic design have been extremely stunted without being able to use Illustrator.

    I've been looking for a reasonable replacement since 2012. Reasonable meaning it can do everything I need it to do and without slowing down productivity. So, this pain point didn't come as a surprise, it just is.

    It's a tradeoff I made willingly and with full knowledge of the ramifications. I have zero regrets, even if I'm handicapped on certain tasks.

    Now that I'm daily driving, I've been able to learn much more than when I just had Linux on my gaming box. For instance, I friggin love how expandable Dolphin is. Batch resize and convert images with a couple clicks from a file browser? Hell yeah!

    The terminal has also become a closer friend, but I still hate VIM. :p

  • Thank you!

  • Maybe it's a silly question, but would using a VPN, like Mullvad, in conjunction with TOR make it even more secure, or is that just redundant?

  • Haven't used my client in almost a year, but my repeater is still running strong.

  • Hah, fair enough!

  • Made that mistake last week. Luckily it was just a chmod and not a rm. Stomach did a flip regardless.

  • Are you now avoiding all computers, including Lenovo, or retracting/clarifying your initial statement?

    To me, a computer is a tool. In this modern age, we don't stand a chance of fighting without these tools. Take the sword from your enemy and stab him with it.

    Lenovo is a good tool.

    Except their bloatware POS tablet.

  • What brand of PC is innocent? Genuinely curious.

  • At first I was like.. shut up. But then I was like.. huh.

  • You're not wrong. And every disgusting action taken, both foreign and domestic, is an effort to ensure that IF never sees the light of day.

  • My last bastion of hope is that some Snowden-like individual has the originals somewhere.

    How I still retain the ability to hope at this point is the real mystery.

  • CachyOS suggests a reboot but also doesn't demand.

  • It certainly feels that way.

  • Mechanical Keyboards @lemmy.ml

    Looking for keyboard suggestion
