Glad to hear it!

I replaced a Realtek one because it constantly dropped connections. Luckily, this was one of the type of fixes that actually turned out to be easier than it looked.

I used Solus for years, it was actually my first long time Linux distro, and I have fond memories from that time and deep appreciation of the project. Note that I say used, because I have moved on (to EndeavourOS and later NixOS).

The reason why I moved on is the same as why I would recommend against Solus: the project have lost a lot of its core contributors. At the time I left there were no package updates for quite some time (used to be weekly).

I am not quite sure Solus really got a future. There are talks about converging it with AerynOS, former SerpentOS, which is innovative but still experimental software built by the original team, i.e. those that left Solus in the first place. Though they are really proficient in making the software, I do not think they have the same skillset for securing longevity through contributions.

In the end you should not care too much what people think. You will get the popular options for the intersection of Lemmy and Linux users, but popular is not always good nor what is right for you. Just try stuff and be ready to move a little through rigorous backups, you do have backups?

I use this to help my grandma remotely! The two steps needed were to join her into my Tailscale network and set up SSH with key authentication only.

Now I am able to SSH into her computer and enable VNC (remote control) and connect to the VNC-server over an SSH-tunnel like this.

Mac has a decent terminal (even defaults to zsh IIRC), homebrew for package needs, no obnoxious ads in the desktop UI, great (although pricey) hardware. I am an avid Linux user forced to use Windows at work. I would much rather use a Mac.

No, it means only people with good pensions can retire early. Incidentally, this is by design those with high wages since these are the basis of earning pension. However, the ones that may actually need to retire early due to the stress of hard menial labor are not in this group of high earners.

In effect we will see people at offices doing easy work close their pcs and have an office retirement party at an age of 65 that poor Olga of 70 years (or more) will have to clean up.

Took me like three minutes to discover that this user was banned for impersonating another user (see the appending “2”?) and posting AI slop as a shit post in their name. Of course, that is not as satisfying as getting rage boners on Hexbear users, because of course we are going to be tribalist to the point of fault. This post should be deleted. It is not lore, it is bait and you swallowed it.

Not on NixOS!

services.immich.enable = true;

Phoronix and Gamingonlinux are awesome!

Setup Mint for grandma, and had to do it again recently as she had bought a new computer and found Windows annoying and unintuitive.

It is related to nystagmus. I thought I only did it on purpose, but when I am tired I also sometimes do it involuntarily.

From the link:

A slightly different form of nystagmus may be produced voluntarily by some (8% of) people. Some can sustain it for up to 35 seconds, but most average around 5 seconds.[19][20][21]

Cannot find any source on this. Do you have a link?

I get bit by a werewolf and sentenced for execution due to being a danger to society. For some reason they choose death by drowning and it turns out I cannot drown because I am a vampire. I then actually do not die because I am an undead.

I use NixOS so I obviously have not.

I kinda want to harm bad people emotionally with my factually correct insults though 🤔

Yeah well, I am still not a bully for insulting you and frankly this weak trolling is a little tiring.

Lol okay. I do not really care if I insult people whose opinions I do not respect.

I am not a bully for insulting you, unless you mean the archaic usage of bully:

a fine chap

It was meant to be descriptive

Twat: a stupid or annoying person

Their populations intentions are to

1. not to support an overtly fascist regime
2. applying tit for tat as a game theoretic approach to US bullying

However, the US has never been a great ally for anyone else. Historically they abandon nations whose use for them has expired. Economically and strategically they treat their so called allies as subjects, now even more so than before.
