  • I giggled a little too hard since I actually ended up in a psych ward while moving cross country and made some friends there. Unfortunately my stay was 2 states away from the one I live in now so not even that worked out lol

    But thank you for the advice and I think I'll check out joining sometype of sport, most likely rock climbing(always had an intrest but never the motivation) since that seems to be widely recommended and just seems like a fun time even if I don't end up meeting anyone

  • If your truely going the endevour route, here some tips on recoving from a broken state:

    • The archwiki is your friend, read the relevant pages before asking on forums
    • Install arch manually (no archinstall) and thoroughly read the wiki to understand how your system is put together. Then install endevour, just from doing a manual arch install you should have the knowlage to fix like 90% of issues
    • Learn the basics of systemD, will also help you on 99% of mainstream distros
    • Keep your /home directory on a seperate partition, useful for doing a system rescue and for distrohopping
  • For me at least it is 100% a hobby. Sure when I'm actually working I'm either running plasma or riverwm basically stock, but it's genuinly really fun to see how "hollywood hacker" based I can get my desktop to look. It also helps me learn more about interacting with the inner workings of linux since I like to modify things myself instead of using other peoples dots. I even made a shitty terminal application launcher using pure fish cause I wanted to see if I could, and it taught me a ton about .desktop files and binary locations and flags. That information I now use daily building my own applications

  • Personally go: Flatpak (I like easily controlling an apps premissions) -> flatpak version is broken... Try system package -> distrobox -> compiling -> appimage -> not installing a package

    Distrobox/containerd is so nice since a lot of the niche tools I use require Debian or Ubuntu dependency versions, but I'd be lying if I said everything "just works"

  • Not sure what your exact requirements are, but these three should work great as simple upload and share embed link type servers :0

    Lychee: My personal choice even for my entire photo library since I just like things to be simple

    Pellicola: Self discribed as "Pastebin for your photos"

    Media Goblin: Lets you view more then just photos, might replace my lychee for non-photography use

  • Write POSIX scripts for portability*, maintainability doesn't depend much on the shell

    POSIX for the system, Fish for the interaction is how I like my OS :3

  • Endevour to Debian to Alpine. Planning on the move to Guix when I have some free time...

    Maybe one day I'll hit true neckbeard and daily Redox lol

  • Why not just use a bluetooth or 2.4g remote?

  • Sorry yea bad wording on my part, I was intending "limiting" to refer to stopping companys from profiting off of your work without limits (controbuting back to the comminity)

  • Where are you hearing this?? The FSF has an entire licence dedicated to limiting commercial use of your software (the a-gpl), gpl-3 is also much more limiting which us why linus doesnt use it for the kernal, but few would call gpl-3 not open source. Open source means people can modify and redistribute your code, theres nothing preventing you from saying "This code is free (as in beer and freedom). Keep it that way)"

  • Microsoft offically supports and encourages using windows in a VM and container tho? It's massivly important for developers and server admins to be able to do. Even regardless of that, they'd still prefer you to run a windows vm and keep their OS as a core dependency of your computing life

  • Thanks so much. Its hard to believe in the idea that I can still get my life together down the road when everyone I used to know already have 50k cars from their parents, housing for the next 4 years paid off for collage, connections, and a path forward. While I'm one missed paycheck away from not having insurance on my car. I got plans how to live the life I wanna and determination to make it, but life does not like to play by my rules lol

  • Krohnkite has a float mode (basically just disable) aswell as a float specific window. Unfortunately I cant access my desktop until much later but when I do I'll grab the specific instructions

  • Sorry for the confusion but I've already moved out and have a job, unfortunately due to hurry of almost going homeless I moved in with a friends family (who im greatful charge me very little a month but their not fun to live with) and the only work I could find is at a warehouse for a retail store (so the culture is extreamly right wing). I just wish between paying bills, navigating the extream republican town im in, and just regular mental illness issues I barely have the time or energy to keep my life together much less try and transition :(

  • Should be under keyboard -> shortcuts -> window management(or something similar) -> krohnkite float

  • Keybind the floating layout in settings and it will act as a toggle! (Taskbar button I dont have a solution for tho) However krohnkite still isnt anywhere near the polish of an actual tiling wm unfortunately

  • Thanks, I'm not lost for hope that I'll have my day, but after hiding everything for so long from my family and reaching so close to being her. This waiting another unknown span of time before I move out again ~v2 eletric boogaloo~ and then have to save the money to transition (even basics like fem clothes) just feels so defeating sometimes. And unfortunately the friends I had were supportive of me, but wernt exactly close friends to me, and their all living their lives in collage now while I work full time

    But at the end of the day Im extreamly stubborn and I'll keep trying to make a better tomorrow. Honestly I just wish I wouldnt have to go through these long stretches of "waiting for the day I can be alive again" alone

  • Transfem @lemmy.blahaj.zone

    I wish I could be trans again

  • The Anubis repo has an enbyware emblem fun fact :D

  • Apparently my experiance has been the outlier here but I've seen a ton of MX talk in the last year. Even to the point of it being somewhat commonly recommended alongside mint for beginners but on older hardware

  • Free and Open Source Software @beehaw.org

    Ladybird seems to be the next big topic but where's the discussion around Servo?

  • Selfhosted @lemmy.world

    Are there any security concerns I need to know about before exposing everything with wireguard?
