Hey you. Yeah you! Why aren't you reading theory yet?

  • What's keeping me from switching is that I switched about 12 years ago.

    They said that their viewer was tested and designed to function mostly with Ubuntu and while it could work with other distros, it's not to be expected to be smooth.

    I can't vouch for this particular software but from my experience with using Mint full time for the last 6 or so years is that regarding troubleshooting software, if a fix works on Ubuntu, it will more than likely work on Mint.

  • Easy there wizard. In my defense I don't hang out in a terminal all that much anymore.

  • Not me using Linux for 15 years and just learning you can search through previous commands...

  • Me with git pushes: up up up, enter x3. Like 6 times a day.

  • OMG now I wanna know what they said.

  • Always great to see more love for MP.

  • I knew it was gonna piss me off but I still watched it.

    Suggesting slaughtering hundreds of thousands of unhoused people? Hell yeah!

    Laughing at Charli Kirk getting smoked? But he had a family!!!!!!

  • I don't think regular Arch is the best for new Linux users at all but their are a few Arch based distros with graphical installers.

    I'd you are trfh savvy, the Arch install process should be ok though.

    Of the 2 you suggested, u would go with Kubuntu. KDE is a very popular desktop environment and Ubuntu is solid. I've moved distros quite a bit but always go back to Ubuntu-based. I've been on Mint for the last 6 or so years.

  • Pedagogy for the Oppressed

    I actually don't have that one in my collection! Just grabbed it.

    It's gonna be a bit before I really get back to it. My life is in shambles right now because of the divorce but once I'm moved and settled in, I'll have more time to read and do things like work on code, etc. Also working on rebooting efforts with organizing with PSL in my shitty city.

  • I'm currently rereading "the classics" and saved this post for reference. I was reading Wretched but it's too damn depressing so I decided to go back to the beginning lol. I wanna solidify my own understanding because theory is important.

  • Damn, you always put in the work. Solid list.

  • This is why I use pnpm instead.

  • Switch statements is the next lesson in this bootcamp.

  • I make websites. Depending on what you are after I might be able to help too.

  • She's getting that bag.

  • Only against the ruling class.

  • I do all my pirating with Transmission as my torrent client, so both?

    A long time ago I pirated because I was poor and wanted to play Skyrim and stuff. I'd download movies occasionally too but streaming services came along and I mostly didn't need to pirate anymore. Then the streaming industry boomed and the enshitification started. I got real sick, real fast with not being able to fined common movies that were either exclusive to a service I didn't have or was behind a paywall of some other sorts.

    So, I donned the hat again, beefed up security wit ha VPN, got a 6 TB hard drive, set up both Jellyfin and Plex(I need my IP addy to log into Jellyfin and kids and partner don't know how to retrieve that so Plex is the backup.) and went back to the high seas. I pay substantially less to watch almost anything I want, than to trudge through 7 different streaming apps trying to find that one movie or show. It helps when you realize pirating against streaming apps only hurts those companies and not the creators themselves(unless you take all of the services originals into account, which is a cache 22 since anything that would catch my eye got cancelled after 2 seasons).
