I sing this song (well, actually the Wall of Voodoo cover usually) on the toilet after Mexican food gets the best of me.

Yeah, I’ve tried the user mapping and doesn’t seem to do anything. Haven’t put them in the env since this started happening though I can try that, thanks for the reminder.

The EFCore change is pretty big. They’re basically changing how the data is accessed from the database so that would touch most of the software, so potential for new issues is fairly high. Hopefully it will improve performance and concurrency. If you are not comfortable with potential issues, I’d hold off on updating for a while.

Well, I can drive and top, which is really all I need, right? Might need gas money though, lol.

Party on, dudes.

Ew, Voyager. DS9 is much more like my Arch install: cobbled together from random bits and only held together by a very tired engineer.

Most!

Lol I just finished watching “Arena”. It’s a cool place, every fan should visit.

I have never heard someone say “habañero”, that’s hilarious. I live like 20 miles from the Mexico border though so most people speak at least a little Spanish.

Why use this instead of just archinstall? I’ve been using Arch for many years but I have used archinstall for at least the last few years and it always goes smoothly.

I have a 2080 running kde Wayland on Arch. No issues really, but I only use that machine occasionally

Southern California English. I never realized how often I used “dude”, “man”, and “like” until I spent a few years in the Midwest. Also “rad”.

I started with neovim because I hate my laptop’s mousepad, and that’s often pushed as a benefit of modal editors, not needing the mouse. After I used it for a while I found that not only could you do stuff that you could do stuff easily that would be difficult in, say vs code, but it was also pretty fun. It’s honestly a bit of a power trip sometimes, makes me feel like a 90s tv hacker. Also plugins. So many neat plugins.

Yes, this is Linux. If your hardware is supported, it’s outstanding. If not, you will need to figure it out yourself. Vetting purchases for compatibility is the most important part. As a bonus, it also makes you vote with your wallet for the manufacturers that don’t do a bunch of proprietary bullshit.

You know, for a long time I thought the argument that choosing a distro was s big blocker for people was dumb, and people should just try things like I did. As I got older, though, I recognized that if I wanted someone to actually make the change, it’s better to have a recommendation for them. The problem often with that though is they have to trust me exclusively, they don’t have the relationship with Debian or Fedora or whatever, that doesn’t mean anything to them. It’s a “devil you know is better than the one you don’t” situation. Sure, Windows sucks, but they don’t know if the alternative is better. They have to take my word on it and take the plunge.

Valve, though. They know and trust Valve. Everybody’s got Steam and generally Valve has treated us well. I probably won’t use SteamOS myself outside of my Deck, but I am INCREDIBLY excited to have a distro to recommend that gets over that trust hurdle. And even if SteamOS isn’t a perfect fit for them, it gets your foot in the door and the next distro hop is that much less scary.

I have been very happy with the work Valve’s put into Linux. It benefits us all. Gaming was always one of the biggest hurdles and it’s effectively a non-issue now thanks to Proton. Legitimately one of the few bright spots in a sea of shit lately. Yes Gaben has 6 yachts and they’re still a profit driven corp and whatnot, but in this space they are doing a great job.
