Niice!

For me it was blender. I absolutely loved using blender as a teen for making silly games and animations (I wasn’t good at that). Now as an adult I re-discovered it and I use it for making DnD minifigs

What is that 1%? I’ve got windows on a vm and I’m curious

I’m also virtualizing windows with kvm/qemu and my laptop’s got 16 G of RAM; I gave the host and the guest 8 GB each and sometimes windows crashes when I’m doing memory intensive stuff on the linux(host) side. (video-rendering, heavy image editing, etc. It once crashed while running a python script with selenium)

The guest is windows 10 and it triples the host memory usage while idle.

Thanks! This is really helpful, I’ll use this rss xml template.

I am my blog software.

I’m pretty much doing everything by hand with vim and nginx :D

Thanks a bunch! I’ll check it out!

Can I do the UUID generation with the uuidgen command? Also, I’m learning python and bash, so perhaps I could do something with cron(? I guess what I need is some sort of template or examples so I can get started

The whole point is learning cool stuff :D

Literally hand-written static html + css

I appreciate the advice, although it’d go against mu core principle of “doing it myself unless it’s unfeasible” besides, I don’t quite much like wordpress.

I’m between “that weird guy” and “jaded outcast”

Consider mullvad :D

Sure thing, I’m obviously no expert in the matter. Please disregard any technical or technological advise I might appear to give.

Also! Enjoy Mexico!

Be careful with the food, as a foreigner trying spicy mexican food might give you “Moctezuma’s revenge” (the runs) keep a peptobismol bottle at arms lenght. Also, if you’re american stay away from tap water, we don’t drink that, we drink water from “garrafón” (big water bottle).

Micheladas are pretty good if you’re into beer and interesting flavours. Also try rusas with sprite (or any lime-flavoured soda). If you’re going to Guadalajara please try “carnes en su jugo” and “tortas ahogadas”, if you’re going near the coast, “ceviche” is incredibly delicious. Lime (“limón”) is the key to most mexican food and it’s sour but incredibly good and you’ll find it everywhere. The limes from “taquerías” however, are dry af. My safe food is “enchiladas Suizas”, and you might find them in any and most restaurants (they’re not actually from Switzerland)

Have fun!

You guys too?? I love Latinamerica.

Kisses from Mexico

Mexican here, I second this. I don’t even bother with VPNs. My ISP’s never done anything about it. Nobody in Mexico cares about that shit.

Do tread carefully, just in case idk

I see you’ve been rummaging around in my post history huh! Good one

[UPDATE] The results are in:

I decided to post my update as a comment because I don’t think it’s that important. This post gained quite a few down-votes (understandable), and I wouldn’t like to be a bother anymore.

Now, the first “distro” I thought about when I saw the card was definitely Linux From Scratch. I felt validated when I saw your comments, however I shall explain a bit more further down. Another one I thought about was Gentoo Linux. To my surprise it wasn’t mentioned. Lastly, while I was writing this post I definitely had FreeBSD in mind, so I included the “UNIX-based” requirement.

I just wanted to read your opinions and in the end I’m really happy I did.

Now, you commented, you voted, and the top 5 distros that you recommended were:

• FreeBSD: 63 Votes (Very devilish!)
• LFS: 55 Votes (Would make me cry blood)
• NixOS: 28 Votes (Very fitting to the original meaning)
• Void: 25 Votes (Interesting…)
• Kali: 23 Votes (I would have never thought of that)

The obvious winner is FreeBSD.
Now, I found this to be incredibly hilarious and immediately downloaded the iso image into my Ventoy. I went through the whole installation process and even got myself a minimal KDE plasma Desktop Environment. However, I was unable to use the touchpad on my Thinkbook laptop (work-issued) and that completely killed my joy. I tried a couple of fixes but I realized this wouldn’t be as straight-forward as I had hoped, which would mean a lot more time invested trying to learn and fix it, and immediately dropped the towel. I will be back to FreeBSD, this isn’t over!
However, for the time being I moved on to the next item on my list: Linux From Scratch.

After reading the LFS Book for a while, I came to the realization that this would be a huge undertaking and that I’d need a lot of prep-work and further reading. I’m not giving up quite yet on the LFS, but It’ll have to wait. I said I had time, but not that kind of time.
(The fact that I even considered LFS after a silly little defect from FreeBSD makes you wonder if I’m mentally stable, but yet again, I’m choosing my new distro based on a tarot card I got two weeks ago at a party while I was piss-drunk, so, uh)

For the time being I’m sticking with NixOS. Upon reading this particular comment section I can tell it’s got a lot of dedicated users (and preachers), which is very exciting. I did some reading about Nix and it sounds fascinating. I have now installed NixOS on my Laptop and got everything working fine. Now it’s just a matter of learning how to properly use it. In the future I’d like to carry on with the LFS installation and bring the Nix package manager along, I believe it’d be really cool. Right now I must learn more, so I would appreciate any advice and resources.
I would say NixOS fits well the description of the “Death” card on tarot because it represents a new beginning and a completely different mind-set. So yay! Thanks guys and gals. I appreciate your recommendations.

Honourable mentions (Distro recommendations I found hilarious):

• Temple OS: 16 Votes
• Ubuntu: 15 Votes
• Hannah Montana Linux: 11 Votes
• Windows: 4 Votes

You might think I’m a bit of a chicken for not following through with the top winners, and you are most definitely right, but I still have to learn more and I need that laptop for work on Monday, so, uh, sorry

I will consider it

[hmm… emoji]

So far, in no particular order, the most voted distros are:

• OpenBSD
• NixOS
• TempleOS(pls no)
• Linux From Scratch

I’ll be coming back tomorrow to find out what my next distro is going to be. I’m so pumped now that I just went and purchased a new SSD for this.

Do not tempt me! I shall return tomorrow and check on the general consensus.
