Or Archinstall is bullshit ;)
There were shadowy conspiracists lurking in the dark alleys of Washington, and hiding from the glaring sun in the High Desert of California, but they were laughably easy prey when the Martian lizard people, the subterranean Vril-empowered mole-men, and the globalist pedophile Commies did show up.
Or Archinstall is bullshit ;)
There is no irony.
Gatekeeping Linux distros has been a time-honored tradition since 1993.
What makes an Arch system an Arch system is the repos, the package manager and the fact that you installed it yourself.
Anyone giving you support will expect you to be able to answer a couple of questions about your system based on the fact you yourself configured it.
With EndeavourOS, even if you have the exact same repos, it still wouldn’t be an Arch system.
And now get off my lawn!
Those aren’t normal issues.
It sounds more like a driver or hardware issue which may only pop up in KDE (Wayland) and not in your other WMs (X11).
As a first step, try logging into the KDE (X11) Session and see if it still happens.
When you do more than necessary, one or more of the following will happen:
Free career advice: Do the average team member’s amount of the assigned work.
If you have the time and motivation to do more, use that to improve your efficiency through automation, self-study, researching methods that reduce friction, etc. If you’re in a job that lend itself to automation, you will at some point be able to spend most of your time for studying.
Share your new tools with the team to help them.
When you feel limited by your role, apply somewhere else with your new skills.
The learning curve is non-existent for its use case.
You boot it up, open the software center, choose the apps you like and run them.
It’s like Android for the PC.
If you notice a learning curve, run into barriers, or try to wrap your head around containers and layering, you’re already not the target demographic, and better off using a traditional distro.
I tried Silverblue.
And I wanted to run it without layering, cause everyone tells you to avoid it, since it kinda defeats the purpose of an atomic distro in the first place.
First of all, it was buggy. As an example, automatic updates didn’t work, I had to click the update button and reboot twice for it to actually apply, even though it was activated in the settings.
None of the docs helped (actually, there wasn’t any in-depth documentation at all). And no one had a solution besides “It should actually just work”.
That’s the main advantage (the devs test with the exact same system you run) gone right from the start.
Then Firefox is part of the base image, but it’s Fedora’s version, which doesn’t come with all codecs.
If you install Firefox from Flathub, you now have 2 Firefox’s installed, with identical icons in the GUI. So you need to hide one by deleting its desktop file. Except you can’t. So you have to copy it into your home directory and edit it with a text editor to hide the icon.
Then I went through all the installed programs to replace the Fedora version with the Flathub version, cause what’s the point of Flatpak if I’m using derivative versions? I want what the app’s dev made.
Then it was missing command line tools I’m used to. Installing them in a container didn’t work well cause they need access to the entire system.
Finally, I realized even Gnome Tweaks wasn’t part of the installation, and it isn’t available as Flatpak.
That’s the point where I tipped my hat and went back to Debian. Which isn’t atomic, but never gave me any issues in the first place.
Maybe it’s better now, I was on the previous version. Or maybe the Ublue flavours are better. But I don’t see any reason to start distro-hopping again after that first experience.
What I did was [add Flathub, don’t remember if it’s already done by default, and] go through all installed apps in the software center once, check if the Flathub version was made by the app’s devs directly, and if so, switch the source from Fedora to Flathub. I only kept the Fedora version if the Flatpak was made by an independent third party.
I’m not sure if Silverblue is even the right distro for me if I care about such things this much, though.
You can’t force your system onto every society and culture on earth, as Capitalism has done, when your system is Anarchism.
No system has ever worked at scale. Capitalism is literally destroying the planet we live on, Feudalism wasn’t any better, and no other system was ever applied at such a scale.
Maybe the scale is the problem, and the Anarchists were right all along.
Also keep in mind the fedora versions adhere to strict policy regarding open source. For example, Fedora’s Firefox doesn’t ship with all codes needed for video playback of all formats.
It is a community-driven project, but there is no structured way to join.
You can become a member of the community when Patrick Volkerding or one of the lead devs ask you.
I’ve been in contact with them for a while and ultimately decided against contributing.
They acted too much like old men when you step on their lawn, and I don’t see the point in this distro anymore, apart from it being a blast from the past.
Literally everything it does is done better by others now.
It Excels at formatting.
I’m a natural at shooting a traditional bow.
I know every edible plant in my area, and some that get you high.
I can find north without a compass, day and night.
I can make a fire from things I can gather in the woods.
I know how to safely fell a tree, split logs and build a shelter with hand tools.
I know how to act around most predators and have experience handling a spear.
I think I’d do reasonably well.
Sometimes I wish I was born in the stone age. My ADHD is completely gone whenever I’m in the wild.
Be mindful of pickpockets especially in Paris!
When you travel through France by train, you often have to get off at one train station in Paris, and take the Metro to another train station to continue.
This funnels a constant fresh supply of disoriented tourists onto specific Metro routes.
When you’re in one of those Metros, there will be groups of professional pickpockets on board.
And if they can’t pickpocket you, they aren’t above shoving, crowding and yelling at you to take your focus off your wallet.
Well, we’re currently in the process of porting apps away from Windows Server 2012 and CentOS 7.
What you’re describing is just how the industry works, not specific to Wayland.
In 2017 they reverted to Windows.
Of course this has nothing to do with Microsoft moving their Germany headquarters to Munich, flooding the city with corporate tax money.
V762 Cas is also clearly in sight.
If you spend thousands on an unreleased game, the only one scamming you is yourself.
I’m a big fan of a minimal Debian system with Flatpaks.
Technically, Fedora Silverblue would be perfect for me, but I had way more issues with it than with Debian, despite it being immutable and atomic.
