  • Is there any way to turn my Linux machine into a docking station?

    Jump

  • Synergy is a software K~v~M. Connect as many computers as you want into one: seamless mouse and keyboard between all of them.

  • What is/was your distrohopping journey?

    Jump

  • 98-02 Slackware

    02-24 Gentoo

    Im currently fixated on nixos and it's likely to get gentoo's spot when I need to replace this workstation

  • is there an arch Fork where I can compile every package myself?

    Jump

  • Im a huge gentoo nerd but recently have found https://nixos.org/ to be quite satisfying as well.

  • Has anyone tried the #Enlightenment DE for #Linux in the recent years?

    Jump

  • No, I guess Wayland is kind of on my to-do list....I just don't need anything it offers. I'm grumpily enough implementing systemd already

    Jump

  • Ive never stopped, just recently did my first nixos build with enlightenment. Had an old XPS with 4k screen works nicely. I like the reenlightened theme

  • Gentoo goes Binary (packages)

    Jump

  • I've been a Gentoo user since 2004 or so and used to crosscompile binaries in like 2006 for all of my systems including some sparc and ppc builds on my main servers. It was glorious. I adore Gentoo for portage and the ability to dream up a set of OS decisions and then actually do it, dog food and all. I'll probably never not have some form of a Gentoo system within reach but mostly for nostalgic reasons but VMs and containers now fill my needs.

  • Why would someone openly say that they oppose human rights?

    Jump

  • Some people define things differently than reality has ascribed, what are rights, while others are just cruel.

    Ever wonder why ghosts keep up with modern language trends?

    Any way to edit a file over internet?

    Jump

  • Often I use git and just edit my repo files with the GitHub app and then git pull the changes from the server that needa the file. If you're already familiar with git it's probably easier than learning vim. You can probably do it directly to a repo behind ssh. If not then I'd learn vim before git.

  • I'm thinking of trying a new career where I estimate crowd sizes at outdoor events.

    What in your opinion is the worst Linux Distribution ever made?

    Jump

  • My emoji joke failed...it was intended to be focused at the red hat. I wasn't being sarcastic I like raspbian

    What in your opinion is the worst Linux Distribution ever made?

    Jump

  • I like Gentoo for the pain. Is Gobo still active?I tried arch but it was too unlike Gentoo for me to adapt. Raspbian is obviously awesome. 🤬⛑️ Alpine is the light. Good bye fedora I didn't really try much.

  • What is the best linux alternative to OneNote?

    Jump

  • I only really use the web version of it in Linux but I dumped OneNote for notion.

    I have some scripts that use their API to send notes from the command line to a db page and some nvim mappings that I'm trying to get to send my buffers to a page but that part is problematic still.

    I looked at obsidian but never really tried it out. I don't like the limits notion has but it's much faster for me to find my notes than OneNote. I have a metric fuckton of notes

  • Did we kill Linux's killer feature?

    Jump

  • The package manager won’t update anything installed from source.

    emerge lols

  • I successfully installed Gentoo for the first time today!

    Jump

  • My first Gentoo install took a weekend and about a week later I had a desktop. KDE took me like 2 days to compile. p3 800mhz Toshiba with maybe 256MB RAM I forget actually...version was 1.2 alpha I wrote 1.too on the CD

  • I used a $2/mth vps and got an instance up in about 5 minutes with ansible. Took longer to pay for the instance and ssh into it than the Lemmy install

    If I were worried about it gaining users then I'd just limit access to the UI or do some database maintenance

  • Cheap UPS solution?

    Jump

  • If you have three phase power and lose power on one then batteries come in handy. Otherwise a nice generator helps. But OP will just be trading swapping one battery for a tray of batteries instead.

  • What's something you used to do/see/say but don't anymore because you don't feel it's right?
