Thanks for telling me lol. I remember sharing your enthusiasm when I started.

If you don’t mind me sharing, here are some tools I use the most in the console:

• htop: resource monitoring and process killing. Mint has a GUI alternative
• btop: better resource monitoring, but worse process killing than htop.
• lazygit: amazing interface for git. Seems hard to get started, but IMO, not at all. There are GUI alternatived.
• tmux: multiple consoles and console manager. A bit hard to get started.
• nano: text editor. Reeaaaallly simple to use, prefer it over emacs and vi/vim.
• grep: you already know this one.
• cronjobs/crontab: allows you to run periodical commands. Say, a cleanup script all days at 7:08 AM.

Also, some GUI programs I love:

• KDE Connect: device pairing with your cellphone and PC. Includes remote mouse input, multimedia control and file sharing.
• Steam: Almost all the games I play on Steam run flawlessly on Linux.
• Stellarium: astronomy/planetary app.

Pick your poison lol. If you don’t mind, we can start talking via ptivate message.

I’m really glad to hear that! Happy Linuxing :)

Hey OP, how did the installation went?

That’s the technical explanation for the changes, no an explanation for closing the discussion all together.

@bitwarden bitwarden locked and limited conversation to collaborators

They also locked the thread 16 hours ago (as of writing this comment), with no explanation.

Yes, but both Intel and AMD offer an equivalent (not as mature, though). AMD is FSR and Intel is XeSS

A very useful tip for technical images (i.e., lab report/research): export whatever graph you created as .svg, and do some prettifying touches in InkScape. It is faaaar easier than doing it in code.

Also, always export the .svg, even if you’re not gonna use it. You never know when you want to do a very small correction, and it will save you quite some time.

I’ve been very happy with my Manjaro install on AMD GPU, everything worked out of the box on fist try install without any weird step. I would say you could jump straight to Arch/Arch-based, but first research about your GPU compatibility.

(I’m aware of how Manjaro is perceived and its downsides, please avoid comments suggesting me to switch).

You can sell it in the second hand market and save the money. Stonks

Must admit, that’s me

Disagree. They showed their arguments, and those seem pretty valid to me, even though I disagree. IMO being open, transparent and promoting community discussion is a good sign.

Which movie is this?

No. If you don’t want to be tracked and you are using a VPN, fingerprinting is a problem as well. Privacy is not concern just for drug dealers.

Tangent note: I think browser fingerprinting is only a source of concern if you use VPN. Otherwise, your IP is already a good enough identifier, and quite likely doesn’t rotate often enough. Please someone correct me if I’m wrong.

I still disagree. Majority of topical subreddits and people are nowhere near as obnoxious. Although, granted, Reddit is a bad place to set bars on quality of discussion.

Agree, but there’s a big chunk of atheist that like jerking each other off, vocally telling themselves how superior and smart they are. That’s the point being made

Spotify has patents on underestimating your emotional state based on the music you listen to. One can guess they sell such data. A hard pass for me.

Self-hosting Jellifyn/Navidrome has been really fun (but I’m aware it is not something everybody wants/can do).

Same here, and I’ve enjoyed it more than my Debian experience.
