I genuinely didn’t know about this. I’ve been avoiding immutable OSes as I’ve had issues with distros like Bazzite in the past where packages completely disappeared from my system after a freeze when overclocking my GPU,which ruined the whole experience for me.

However, I’m interested in blend os,which unfortunately comes with gnome by default,but I will give it another try with layering plasma on it next time I try it,cause the idea of a distrobox centric distro is really appealing.

End rant.

Thanks for sharing this.

I could never get that to work for some of my devices,so I had to use virtualbox,which works very well.

“Legitimate interest”

Very very nice work. Thanks for your effort and willingness to experiment with new stuff. i would definitely be interested in trying it out once it reaches “production”.

That goes without saying. Siesta is sacred!

I didn’t get that notification yet,but when I do,l’ll be sure as shit to donate as large amount as I can afford.

Edit: I know I can and have donated already,but just to highlight the idea

If it makes you feel any better,over here,in Spain , I get 09:00 AM - 11 PM delivery intervals,with deliveries sometimes arriving at 10:30 PM,so yeah…

That FreeBSD club looks pretty good. There’s a niche for every niche.

Thanks for sharing this. I will install hyperland.

For that they can buy an android for 150$. If they expected protection from Apple,that’s on them.

Buy a cheap android burner and profit from side loading and alternative app stores. Simple,yes?

Same here. Ir’s very bloated. You can decide on what to install,but if you do install all that bloat,you need to be prepared. I tried their AMD GPU overclock tool and after a got a black screen, I ended up with missing packages. Immediately went back to Arch.

Edit:words

In my head it’s infuriating just cause it’s showing the cold harsh truth about the world. Humanitarian aid is still a thing. I hope…

Could be less or more infuriating, depending on perspective.

Buying windows is like self flagellation. You have to be a masochist to enjoy it,especially the apologetic users.

Of course they are. they share dependencies with other software. flatpaks bundle all dependencies,which is great for sandboxing,even though some sort of break the rule and share some,they are still sandboxed.

Unless you “firejail” or “bubblewrap” your software, security is much better OOB for flatpaks.

Have a look at Dwarf Fortress too. It could melt your brain.

While I admit most of my arch reinstalls are mostly the same,I feel that archinstall script is genuinely good now with most defaults I need. The rest I can just add it in the installer extra packages or chroot post install (which is offered as a choice at the end).

I just could never bring myself to use distros that are technically the same distro with calamares slapped in top and whatnot. I mean ‘pacman -S {packages}’ is straightforward enough for me.

I mean…you’re mostly right, but I don’t know how setting a few flags like -H,-W,-h,-w is that big of an issue. I agree lutris and maybe heroic (I don’t use) have frontends for these,but I would hardly that “way better”.

Edit: grammar,typos

I can’t even tell the difference between components. It’s a very confusing ui.

I’d give Elly 1$ to suck that pedia.

I always check my flatpak settings post install before running the app and adjust permissions according to need. I mean it does offer more security to me since it’s user installed, I can granularly update permissions and control more or less where and what is can touch.

Alternatives to this are SELinux,AppArmour and firejails which are slightly more inconvenient to use.

To me that is mostly secure,or secure enough.

Well and then there’s some immutable distros which might help overall.
