  • My Switch to Linux is Happening Today

    Jump

  • Have you considered other distros? I've had lots of success with the immutable fedora variants, which offer great stability and NVIDIA drivers in the base system. If you need apt, you create a new Debian container in the box buddy and make that container be your default when opening a terminal.

    Gnome variant: https://projectbluefin.io/

    KDE variant: https://getaurora.dev/

    Gaming variant: https://bazzite.gg/

    They are all the same distro with different desktop setup and default apps. You can install one of them and seamlessly switch to another one without losing any data.

  • What are your Homelab goals for 2025?

    Jump

  • Yeah... So I'm in Berlin, and in Germany the internet operators finally are building fiber everywhere. The provider who lays the fiber to our street is Deutsche Telekom, and they promise to pay everything: laying the fiber, bringing it to our house and bringing the fiber to every apartment for a two year monopoly on fiber internet after which it's up for competition using their cables. What needs to happen next is our landlord (a Swiss company) and house management company to agree on these guys to come in, put little fiber dividers to every floor and drill a hole to the walls so we get the fiber cable to our apartment.

    Of course this being Germany, they are very slow on agreeing on that, we might need to go to court and for sure we need to talk to our neighbors who own their apartments to push them a bit. I'd expect us to get the connection maybe before end of 2025. But eventually it will happen...

  • I am doing exactly the same as what the OP is doing. In addition to that, I will unify my beelink mini PC proxmox server and our old Intel atom NAS into one rack server with AMD EPYC, proxmox and truenas in a VM.

    I sure hope our landlord and the Internet operator can agree on the operator finally bringing fiber cables to all apartments. Then I would have fast enough uplink to my homelab.

  • Lineage OS 22.1 (Android 15) Released

    Jump

  • Graphene only works on Pixel phones. Graphene is more private and secure, but might be too many issues for people who do not care about such things that much. Lineage has better support for different phone models, and you can make it just like a normal Android OS, that just happens to provide updates for your phone years after the manufacturer stops sending them.

    Neither of them is better than the other, it's just about your priorities. Get Graphene if you have a Pixel and you value privacy and are willing to tinker with it a bit if some apps don't work.

  • Y-10K

  • Linux kernel updated to 64 bit time quite recently. In 2038 I can guarantee somebody in a very serious business is still using an ancient RHEL and will have issues.

  • Y-10K

    Jump

  • And not using 32-bit integers to calculate time. Which is still a thing in many many many codebases written in C or C++...

  • Depends. For example in Finland the filing is done for you every year by the tax authorities and tax is deducted every month from your salary. Once a year you get either money back or need to pay more if your work situation changes during the year. You can also correct them by saying "hey I paid this bus card" etc. and get money back.

    In Germany it works about the same, except they charge you quite a lot more every month. Here you do not have to file, but if you do you usually get a lot of money back. Filing is more complex than in Finland, so you might want to have a tax advisor to do it for you.

  • On a scale of 1 to 5, how offensive is the middle finger?

    Jump

  • In Germany you'll get a fine and lose points from your license if you show a middle finger. Even if you're riding a bike out walking (if you have a license)...

  • You still need to file every year. An advisor at least here in Germany can do both countries, but you pay a premium for that.

  • Linux Sys Admins, do you work on Linux or Windows office laptops?

    Jump

  • Not a sysadmin, but a programmer. My work machines have been:

    • 2003-2008 Windows 7
    • 2008-2011 Ubuntu
    • 2011-2019 Arch
    • 2019-2024 NixOS

    Probably going to keep using NixOS. This is a very cool OS.
