    Is it common for family members to spy on each other's sexual behavior to find evidence of "degeneracy"? Or did I grow up in hell?

  • Hi! This was very similar to my situation! Yeah, it took me until my 30s to understand what happened and think of it as abuse. You survived abuse.

  • Why go through the trouble to use Arch?

    Jump

  • So on arch can you choose to run the deb anyway and get updates through the package manager, or is it that only AUR applications are the main application type? Or can you use both?

    I have a number of apps that are super small teams/individual made that I can’t expect them to care about the AUR. What do you do in the case that an app developer doesn’t use the AUR?

  • you can set it up however you prefer and then combine them in novel ways to solve your tasks more quickly

    Can you think of a quick example, out of curiosity?

  • Greece would look great with the Norwegian house colors imho.

  • HOAs essentially have rules for everything and force you to have your house conform to whatever standards were established when your house was built.

    In the US, many municipalities cannot “afford” to expand municipal services to new developments, so instead said developments will establish an HOA that handles basic municipal needs (ex: trash, water, electricity, paving) along with other niceties like landscaping. The idea is that you are paying as a group to fund things in the neighborhood (but you of course still pay property tax to the city/county/state).

  • People shouldn’t be able to be told what color to paint their house. More people should experiment with wild colors inside and out.

  • Linux Distro Recommendation

    Jump

  • First thing I wanna implore you do is create a separate partition on your boot drive for your /home folder. Distro hopping is super normal when you’re starting out, and by separating your home folder makes distro hopping very easy.

    Bazzite, like others suggested, is your best bet at a first attempt because it’s much harder to cause irreparable damage with a stray terminal command.

    All of the apps you listed should work just fine under Linux. Bazzite ships with Steam and Lutris (it’s a game store aggregator) to get you started with gaming. Use Microsoft 365 online or one of the open sourced alternatives like libreoffice for office apps. The rest of the programs should either be able to be run with wine/bottles/WinApps.

    A 1050 is kinda paltry by today’s standards, so just don’t expect a big bump in gaming performance or super snappy emulation.

  • [Q] Is it possible to reinstall Linux without losing Dropbox?

  • Option 2, with more emphasis on the login component. My files are safe, but I don’t wanna bother my buddy to 2FA me every time I need to reinstall Linux for whatever reason.

  • It's interesting to see what qualifies as a swear in different languages.

    Jump

  • Québécois swears are literally just church vocabulary words. You could probably just use any church vocabulary in place of the common ones and I’d understand what you meant.

  • Did it really used to be common for guys to go to a bar every night like in Cheers or The Simpsons?
