I used Arch btw

Isn’t that what canonical was trying to do for years now?

Looks like one of the better attempts, TBH. I’ve seen some poor ones over the years.

Nah I went LCD 512 when it went on sale for 419 CAD.

Just bought myself a steam deck. Gaming on Linux has never been so pleasant.

Yes, you need a firewall. Deny traffic to the internet, permit to your self hosted resources. If you intent to take this phone out of the house, you can configure always on VPN with tasker and wire guard.

Weird. I suspect your disk is dead, but in case it’s not, I’d mark that disk for replacement, then “replace” it at the software level and allow resilver to see what happens.

No idea how to do this in proxmox or the commands but I know how to do it in truenas with the GUI.

Context?

Opnsense and ruckus and Aruba here. Zero issues, but I’m not running bgp at home…

I don’t think it’s a stretch. I’ve been using both for >15-20 years.

Lots of people don’t even know how to install windows. While linux is easier to install IMO (and has been for years) I’d say a significant amount of the population doesn’t even know how to control computer boot behaviour. Linux is not preinstalled on a significant amount of computers due to Microsoft’s monopoly on the PC market. After you get past this, everything looks different. SameButDifferent.gif.

KDE Plasma for example, sure it looks close at a glance but the icon is different for the menu. This is enough to trip up some. Dolphin looks similar but behaves a bit differently than Explorer. “I want to install adobe photoshop. Hey, why can’t I open this installer?” - how software is managed on Linux is quite a bit different since windows still doesn’t really have a good package management method.

Then hardware compatibility, distro choice, and stability. I’ve been running nvidia for years and I cannot tell you how many times I’ve rebooted my various systems over the years after patching it and I’m greeted by a shell and an error message. Good luck, majority of the population.

I can’t tell you the amount of hours I’ve burned trying to fix my GUI using a spare computer or my cell phone to look up error messages.

Of course, for all those instances there are computers that work just absolutely flawlessly. But the software and DEs all still have some of a learning curve.

That all said, most people will just see the firefox icon and be like “durr - internet!”

A lot of people just need to get shit done and it’s easier to just use the tool they know than to relearn how to use a computer.

Wait, what? That’s cool.

I’m using Plex with plexamp. You could also go jellyfin with finamp

I’m doing opnsense on a protectli

Most people grew up using windows. Familiarity has a huge part. Why isn’t everyone using macos?

Probably corps

But wait, when I control F for “AI” nothing shows up?!

What a breath of fresh air…

I know 😂

Oh ya I kind of figured, I was just having a laugh 😂

It’s bad for other reasons too, like a script on a website would launch as root… And also without a password if your disk was encrypted your data is protected even if someone has physical access.

It is just generally common knowledge to not run around in God mode all day, otherwise sudo wouldn’t exist.
