Great post! Very informative! I have tried to install Kinoite but it’s tricky to do with partitions. I currently have all my data/files on a big partition and install the system in a different one, and I can’t seem to install Kinoite without “formatting” the disk. Will do in the future for sure!

Option 2. It’s the most robust. You’ll never lose it (provided you have the redundancy), you can use it offline, you can transfer it using a USB pen, it’s available in all platforms, including web. I’ve been using this for 8+ years, on my phone, desktop, laptop, company computer, etc. I store it on a personal cloud (and on each machine, of course, by syncing).

I do that sometimes. When the lenses have grease or salt from the beach, and I have no quick access to water, I’ll lick them. I don’t recommend it, but I do it.

Out of curiosity, which one did you stick with?

It is still true, at least in Europe. I mean, they’re not actually trying to destroy your life, you know, but they’re after the company’s best interests. They might help you, and might make things not the worst they possibly can, because that’ll give a bad rep, but they’re not your friend.

This is a great 101, thanks!

People around these parts would probably ask me if I even like star trek :)

Thanks for the info!

I guess this is the succinct version of the other replies. You’re getting downvotes but I like it anyway :)

This is everything I was looking for, thank you so much!

what makes you think you won’t?

I’m not sure, I think the emphasis on news about distro update around the web. It makes me confused as to what’s so important about that, but I now understand perfectly. I thought it worked a bit more like a rolling distro and I now understand what a rolling distro is :)

It was a joke, man.

She’s a pain but she’s also part of the family. I think it makes s very good point to make her like that and to have us bear her.

If it’s music, it’s on Soulseek!

What issues are you having with BT? I recently bought a second hand T490 and Fedora with KDE has been great! I have not extensively used BT, but I always use a BT keyboard and it has been fine :)

I’m pretty sure Gaia Maps uses the info on OSM

Hear me out. Go to the BIOS. Swap Left Ctrl and FN! Thanks me later :)

[offtopic] Where are you from, OP? Is it Eastern Europe? I don’t think you’re French, because you would have used « and ». But you used „ and ”. Come, tell me, is is Switzerland? Bulgaria? Russia? :)

Ploum makes a very interesting point on his blog: https://ploum.net/2023-06-23-how-to-kill-decentralised-networks.html

They talk about examples like Google Chat being XMPP, becoming very big, changing the standards that look like other XMPP users/clients are subpar and then killing “federation” but no one complains because everyone uses their product, so it’s not a big disruption.

While I don’t think this is it, because Facebook is huge and ActivityPub isn’t (XMPP was the most used protocol then), this happened and can’t be ignored.

What did that mean? How does that work?
