-Ireland: Trash. Worst urban planning I’ve come across in the entirety of Europe.

-Spain: pretty decent though they love just painting a bike on a slab of concrete and calling it a day

-Belgium: Flanders is generally quite good, Wallonia a bit less so

-France: at least for the southern cities I’ve been to I’d say it was pretty good

-Denmark: only been to Copenhagen but i’d say it was really good, really liveable and safe

-Portugal: don’t remember

-Sweden: Really good. Stockholm’s bike lanes can be a bit of a confusing mess at times but all 3 cities I’ve been to seemed to be really well organised and safe for cyclists and pedestrians.

FOSDEM has a beer brewed every year for the event, I wonder, surely that’d be open.

Constant BSODs in Windows XP (probably caused by NVidia drivers)

Apparently, Catholic dating is all about money

Usually what they actually mean by “strong family values”

CentOS Stream 8. Which I regret. Because they ended support without upgrade path.

Warning: Cloudflare does not allow you to change the nameservers of domains you register with them unless you pay for some insanely priced subscription. For many of us who register domains at various registrar’s but want to be able to centrally manage DNS, hiding such basic functionality behind an extremely steep paywall makes Cloudflare a no-go.

dev-mapper swap…

Any resume argument in your boot commands? Try removing them and see what happens

Ah yes, the pretence of democracy continues

Ok boomer? This is just out of touch with modern day reality.

The fact that there’s entire communities full of people who will spend energy trying to convince you to give it a try, rather than a corporation with a marketing budget and lobbying power :)

dnf upgrade

Sounds like the good old fucked bootloader after system update

A good place to start because it’s a likely culprit is anything mentioning “OOM” (which refers to Out Of Memory)

There are many reasons one could choose to hate Snap packages, and this not one of them. It’s like hating a webbrowser because it spawns 20 processes that (the horror) you would all see when you run ps. It’s just a part of how container technologies work.

Purist, hard-line stuff like this will honestly just get you nowhere in 2023. I get where you’re coming from, but it’s simply not realistic. This is what browser extensions are for.

You should, and you will :) X11 is legacy, and is going to die. The only question is whether you’re going to try and hold on to a broken system riddled with security vulnerabilities for as long as possible until you’re forced to switch, or whether you’re just going to enable what is mostly already the default stack on most desktop Linux systems anyway.
