Just your normal everyday casual software dev. Nothing to see here.
I’m not sure of the complaint, is the tag not accurate? If you use AI to make something are you not making it with ai? Like if I use strawberry to make a cake would the tag made with strawberries be inaccurate?
Like I failed to see the argument, if you don’t want to be labeled as something accurate don’t use it otherwise deal with it.
I mean it gets the point across, regardless of the service dog or a pet(which shouldn’t be in the TSA security line in the first place cuz generally airports will have a designated drop off or require Kennels) , in this case it doesn’t matter how dense you are, it’s clear: do not pet the dogs, if the reader wants to say that it means no petting dogs on the entire trip, the airport doesn’t care as long as you’re not petting the dogs at the airport, and therefor not getting in the way of procedure or causing a potential safety issue for the port
Yeah I get that, but the primary one that I use it for has stated that he doesn’t want to have to learn a new platform and that if his Twitter ever died he’s not going to learn another platform. I would rather have updates on a shitty platform then no updates at all. Of course that’s also under the assumption that everybody left the platform as well because me alone leaving wouldn’t do anything
If you open up the host instance, you’ll only see one other commenter anyway so I think they are down voting due to it seeming like a demand, but since no one’s messaging why I’m just guessing
I really thought they got rid of that future, you know after the absolute dumpster fire it’s launch was, like it doesn’t look good when your launch stream is buggy and barely runs
I exclusively use it because content creators I follow are stubborn and won’t leave the platform. I regret every time I’m forced to open it because it’s mostly spam now, but they won’t go elsewhere
honestly I don’t think there is a better way, like others have said you can use a trash program or you can chmod the git directory before deleting but, I would recommend against the comments saying alias the command, that can lead to even bigger problems if you typo thr alias or mess up in the script. rf can’t break anything unless you say the wrong directory which would be the same with aliases anyway,
My recommendation out of them all would be using a trash program to move it to the trash that way if you do screw up the location you have a way to restore it otherwise you could make a script to list the files affected using ls and then prompt a yes/no prompt using read before doing the rm script, but that’s something you definitely want to test in a sandbox or user restricted environment if you’re not used to scripting in case something breaks
it’s not recommended, it causes massive issues with the built in programs and you will spend ore time fighting your system then just going with a native, I just tried this a few months back
for real, like it’s weird that it’s on such a small app store without branching out to the other larger ones, it makes me think something else nefarious is going on. Not that it actually is but that’s the look that it gives with something like this lol It’s on my radar but I’m going to give it a bit before trying just in case
Adding on to this that if they do decide not to go Windows do not use Debian.
Don’t get me wrong it’s hella stable if you’re using stuff from like five six years ago, but if you’re trying to do anything remotely new or gaming related I would probably pass and try for one of the ones that are less stable. This is coming from someone who just made this mistake, steam will install but proton will not because the dependencies that proton relies on don’t exist in any of debian’s default sources, of course the launcher won’t actually tell you this unless you try to launch it from command line. On top of this if you’re planning on using games that originated on a windows partition, proton isn’t able to use those partitions unless you force yourself the owner by using uid and gid in fstab for the partitions, but it won’t tell you that either it will just fail to launch.
I’m at the point where I think I’m just going to Nuke my Debian install and just go with another system because man has it fought me every step of the way in this process
Roblox in particular has been super hostile to the Linux community, they’ve two or three times now intentionally changed their application to make it so it won’t run under wine. If Roblox is something that is a hard requirement for him, I would highly recommend against any of the non-windows derivatives. The lead development team on Roblox seems to have the ideology that anything that isn’t Windows is a hacker platform and therefore they attempt to remove access from those platforms wherever possible. I don’t personally agree with it but, it is what it is.
I also wish people would stop blindly recommending Unix platforms as a drop-in replacement for gaming on Windows. I have yet to see anyone who has been able to just install any of the flavors and have it “just work”. I fully agree that we are ages better in terms of compatibility than it was even 5 years ago, but at 100% should be going into it as a “you will have issues prepare to have to troubleshoot” and if this was his first time using anything not windows, I would have hard recommended against nuking the windows install, at the very least shrink the C partition on Windows which can be done via GParted, which thankfully is already pre-installed on the Linux Mint installation media.
It’s disappointing that he is looking to go back, but I can fully understand his frustration, as someone who’s recently retaking the plunge after 6 or 7 years of being on windows again, I find myself getting aggravated at times trying to make hack scripts to make things work as well.
That being said, if he is wanting to go back you shouldn’t force using it, that’s only going to remove the possibility of him switching back in the future(like when MS makes w10 a subscription model either end of this year or the year after which will force w11)
“this might have been a bug”
that or they didn’t like the PR so they reverted it till later
Yeah I know that Debian isn’t really meant for the latest and the greatest and I agree I think it is what I’m running into, it’s just sadly I tried Linux Mint prior because that’s the system I had originally started with 15 years ago and I loved it, but I had an even worse time getting that system running then I did getting debian running and one of my friends was hard pressing me to use plasma anyway and there wasn’t a good way of getting plasma to work on mint, so I decided to go with it.
I may end up dropping Debian I’m just at that point where I put so much effort into getting the system to run again and most everything has been fixed, but I’m also at that State where every time I think I’ve gotten to a point where I’ve gotten things fixed, something else weird that I would have never expected to be a problem pops up. I do need to just let the system go, just sucks to waste all that effort
As for the specs yeah it is NVIDIA I got burned by AMD pretty hard after years of loving AMD, I still have an AMD CPU(R 5 5600x) as I’m in love with their processor division, but I’m running an Nvidia GPU(4070) now cuz AMD’s GPU division needs a lot of polish. Love the raw output but stability under high load was just not there. I moved my AMD GPU to the rack where GPU demand is less and it’s not crashing all the time now.
If I ever take the rack apart again I may put the card back in to see how it works with the new system but overall I’m happy with the state of the system it’s just annoying at times
Thank you, hope everything runs stable for you as well!
I might, last I knew it was super unstable but that was a long time ago, I just don’t want to have to go through another reinstall, already reinstalled once recently to switch off mint
my issues in the past 2 weeks consist of proton(just in general has a memory leak that eventually frame drops but I expect it’s just a proton thing) , bluetooth(fixed for now), multi-monitor/desktop has screens randomly shutdown on sleep and screen timeout requiring a force enable/disable of the monitor and audio sharing across applications just generally doesn’t like working. I’m expecting it’s an issue with pulse audio or something but it’s still annoying.
I have given up getting proper channel control on my headset, it detects both channels but the other channel won’t let me edit volume, I’ve had to manually make an audio profile in order to get it to even detect the headset in the first place.
I can’t use Wayland period, unless I manually start the window manager and even when it does work it artifacts all over the place and is generally unenjoyable due to it. I’ve fallen back to X11 which works tremendously better but will occasionally just decide to not load a desktop environment.
Most of these are easy workarounds to get working again, but the point is you shouldn’t have to do workaround over workaround in order to get a system to operate for you.
Like I said it’s still tremendously better than how it was when I used it 10 years ago but it’s things like that that make it so it’s really hard to recommend taking the plunge for your everyday user
I’m struggling to get back into using Debian again but like, with every issue it makes me look at my windows partition more and more. Like it’s significantly better then it was 10 years ago and I love it’s speed but, it’s reliability and compatibility could definitly improve
You can put a different name than what’s yours as the author, but unfortunately if someone is dedicated if you’re writing style is still similar it’s not outside the realm of possibility that someone might be able to connect the dot eventually. Unlikely unless you got super huge, but not impossible
well that’s annoying, thanks for letting me know, will make sure my flow is adjusted
I concider bloat to be either unneeded files/programs. So duplicated libraries, unused apps, not personal data files that are stagnant, anything similar to that. It’s hard to put a metric on it, I just browse through my files every once and awhile and delete the unused stuff, but with the push for container based stuff I forsee that method will become increasingly harder as time goes on
I’m not sure but, I always recommended Mint for it’s ease of use, I tried fedora, didn’t like it, will likely never use it again. First impressions are a pain cause if you fail the first impression you lose before you begin. It could be an amazing system but, it was a bigger pain to setup and get going plus had less resources for me to get started while using more lesser known tools that wern’t easily transferrable from the previous systems I has tried.
