I dont know if historic data is very interesting. Its the new content we are interested in…

The internet is always right except when its not.

I think it depends a bit. Your first times with arch is definently experimental. You install it, you learn to configure things, and at some point you probably want to reinstall, because you have done something that makes the system be buggy. I reinstalled lots of times in the beginning.

But you learn proper Linux by using arch. At least if you actually do the install yourself by following the wiki. You will change a few things in a few config files and you will learn about Linux from that.

After that initial phase of reinstalling lots of times, you start to feel like you know the system intuitively. You know where the system looks for things, which files are read. Then you feel like you really like arch because now you dont break it anymore, and if you do, you can fix it.

Maybe its like that with other distros too. But for me, arch has been that journey. Im on a arch installation from december 2022 now appearently.

Linux is that feeling of your computer not becoming worse every year. Windows and mac users dont know what that is.

Yeah ok. Well we will see. Im sometimes wrong. :)

I think its a new shiny thing but I expect most users to go back to ordinary Linux, and in a year there wont be many still using bazzite. But thats fine. I love playing with new tools myself. But most of them are just temporary and then its back to what works the easiest.

But this is what makes Linux fun. Its not just one system. Tons of desktops, tons of apps, tons of configs.

Yeah. People have been surprised many times when my patience finally runs out. :) Sounds like the same for you.

Yeah people think its confidence to act like shit in public.

Yeah. I used to go to the cinema often as a kid but people were quiet so there was never any problems enjoying the movie.

And it was before mobile phones.

Not going to cinema means saving lots of emotional pain created by the actual cinema experience:

• Ads

• More Ads

• Trailers

• 20 minutes of that shit (despite paying for the movie!), movie finally starts. Now this happens:

• People talking during movies

• People watching phone during movie

• People eating candy (loudly) during movie

On top of this, what are the odds the movie will be good? I think ive been disappointed by almost every movie this year, so thank god i didnt watch them in a cinema.

Yeah. If I needed collaboration, I would just whitelist their ips or require everyone involved to use Wireguard vpn, Tailscale or other solutions that allows access without being publically exposed.

People have open registration on those things… Thats… Brave…

I have my own gitea instance in my homelab but of course its not accessable from the internet.

I didnt even notice a difference but sounds good.

Oh this is very cool. Never read a tutorial like this!

Name one world leader except Trump that can make the stock market crash by speaking… :)

We dont have any big leaders in Europe that most people know by name even.

Its all talk about Trump, Musk, Zuckerberg over here too. Like mini America. There is nobody here who is saying anything people care about. We dont even know their names.

I think people who self host are the only ones who knows they services wont just disappear, their accounts wont get locked and their data wont be shared with big tech.

Others can wake up one day and not have access to their stuff anymore, and have nothing they can do about it.

How mad is it to just rent access to your movies, or documents, and it can go away at any moment?

An ordinary sftp server. No reason for this to be web based.

You dont need to test on different Linux distributions. All that matters is what kernel its running. That is the one that is detecting your headset.

Just so you know for the future. You can actually just install the latest kernel instead of trying different distros.

Probably not that much. The beta is really new.

Yeah try it again now, I noticed how tiling seemed a bit laggy in the beginning but that has improved. I run the latest git version available in the arch repos.
