  • Why is Debian the way it is?

    Jump

  • because of its social contract, its free software guidelines, and the community around it

  • Who is Jordan Peterson, what does he say and why is he bad (or is he good)?

  • To all the comrades lifting next week, good luck!

    Jump

  • Yeah I did some light running, and I just had more energy and felt lighter. My endurance is probably still awful, but I just generally feel better having made some lifestyle changes

  • To all the comrades lifting next week, good luck!

    Jump

  • I should be lifting, but I am losing a lot of weight that I needed to, so I'm getting healthier everyday

  • MX Linux 23 “Libretto” Is Out with Linux Kernel 6.4, Based on Debian Bookworm

    Jump

  • the thing it offers is no systemd, and the mx-linux gui tools to configure your system. Also the advanced hardware support (AHS) is a neat feature. They basically take Debian and make it slightly more user friendly. It's just less well known than something like ubuntu or mint.

  • Is slackware still widely used?

    Jump

  • No it's not widely used. But I think it has a small loyal community. Some people really love it. I've only tried it a couple of times, and only on virtual machines. I liked doing admin via text files, and I like that using the "kitchen sink" option you basically have a tool for every task after install. It's linux but sort unixy or bsd-like in how it approaches some things. That works for some and not so much for others. I might try it out again, but most likely I will stick to Debian.

    If you want more software it's up to you how to do it. With 3rd party tools like sbopkg it's easier than before, and with tools like flatpak install other software is even easier.

    There is also slackware current, and all the other repos, like the work alienbob does to provide plasma desktop etc.

  • What do you guys think about FreeBSD?

    Jump

  • I like it, for the most part. Obviously you need to check to see if your hardware is supported, but it's a good OS. It's stable, has neat features like boot environments, and it with pkg and the ports tree you can have newer versions of software. Also, they don't make changes to the OS for the sake of it, or because one person or group wants it. They make change with a clear plan in my mind. Sometimes that means features land later in FreeBSD, but they're implemented more thoughtfully imo.

    OpenBSD and NetBSD are also cool projects in their own right.

  • awesome thanks

  • Anyone use mozilla VPN?

  • would have to check on that specifically.

  • Firefox now has speed parity with Chrome on the Speedometer benchmark

    Jump

  • even when chrome was obviously faster, and was gaining in popularity, I still used FF. It's my preferred browser, and using it along with ublock origin makes going online more hassle free. Add to that multi account containers, reader mode, and just the general ability to customize it, I really can't see myself using another browser

  • Ran into an issue with the latest arch Linux update, how to prevent in the futur

    Jump

  • btrfs and snapshots is one solution

    Also, it looks like you were able to solve the problem, even if you aren't 100% sure why. Maybe the difference in package versions lead to some problem with the bootloader, causing it to go to emergency mode, and updating it fixed the problem?

    Another is using a more stable distro....
