Well there is a simple answer to it. I didn’t know about it.
The project looks quite cool though.
That’s the beauty of FOSS. You can do whatever the hell you want to your system. Fuck up the kernel if you so wish.
PS, I looked into the wiki and it is really cool, especially since it uses a proper language. I will try it some day but for now… I am totally burntout setting up eww. Maybe on my next rice I will give it a go.
I was in a similar situation like yours. Eww is very time consuming. It’s language is weird. Ags on the other hand has excellent support, documentation and other important features like SYS tray module. It also supports typescript along with js.
IIRC it might be on by default (tho this would hurt anonymity if you can request JXL files & stock Fx cannot), else open about:config & search for “jxl”. Upstream has kept this flag—toggle on or off—only working in Fx Nightly.
Just read up on Timeshift and that should be do able. I would just point them to diff folder names the host name. If your doing BTRFS snapshots it’s a little harder but still do able. You can look at the native send-receive support in BTRFS. I have never used it myself but it worked really will with ZFS
This seems to have worked, got my desktop back. I did fsck on something like /dev/sda9 then answered yes to fix a bunch of things. Thanks for your help.
No, can’t be lack of anything, it was the regular Mint 21.3 installer image overwriting Debian on a normal ext4 formatted partition. Nothing should have gone wrong. Reinstalled with formatting on, and it started working.
“Hadn’t” means “had not” (not done in the past), not “had not” (lacked possession). I’m Finnish and might be wrong.
Native English speaker. I started to write up an answer but the more I dig into it the more confused I am.
The subject and predicate need to agree for a sentence to sound normal. “It hadn’t” uses “had not” as the predicate which implies past action and needs a verb to sound normal.
You could say:
It had not installed the tooling.
Or It had not verified that the tooling installed correctly.
In it “It didn’t have” the predicate is “have” so a noun can follow and sound normal.
You could say:
It didn’t have the tooling.
Here is where I’m becoming confused.
Usually you can remove negatives and extra words to clarify grammar. In the sentence “It had the tooling” the predicate is still “had” but it doesn’t imply action so a following noun is fine. Also the sentence “It did have the tooling” is grammatically correct but sounds wordy and would probably be found in a legal document or technical write up. Why does the grammar change when you add a negative? “It hadn’t the tooling” sounds ridiculous but logically it should be fine if “It had the tooling” is fine! This is driving me crazy.
Somebody who paid more attention in English class will have to correct me. I guess we’re just going with " English is weird and it sounds better that way".
I see multiple posts on reddit everyday asking for advice for migrating to linux. I think linux userbase is increasing a lot since Window’s questionable recall announcement.
Nevertheless, Valve’s work with proton has pretty much crushed the argument that Windows is needed for games. That use to be a major sticking point, preventing people from leaving Windows - but now not so much.
Nexus mods is working on a Linux client which is really exciting! Also Steam Workshop works on Linux. This covers a ton of use cases.
Not saying everything is 100% perfection, but it’s easier than ever to switch, and only getting easier.
I imagine “Windows locked mods” would probably also benefit from just disconnecting the internet and keeping it set up just the way one likes it, since MS is gonna drop Win10 soon.
That’s the case with WMR VR headsets. Sadly don’t see those getting cracked to work on Linux any time soon. :(
Almost all anti-cheats work on linux or offer linux integration or builds. It’s the scummy unethical publishers who run the typical games that uses anti-cheat who refuse to pay engineers to make the minimum effort to support linux. Because it would undermine some of their bullshit claims used to manipulate their players. Fortunately for some people like myself, the typical game that requires anti-cheat is not a game they would want to play anyways.
I feel like both “people who install windows on the steam deck” and “people asking for advice for migrating to linux on reddit” are just vocal minorities which you encounter on the internet but don’t really influence the Statcounter’s results in a meaningful way. Generally (from my view) it’s the kids who got a steamdeck for xmass and the coders who use ubuntu for work influencing the numbers.
If only linux gaming and thermal became more and more robust, in few year I will switch too with pleasure. Adobe suite can still be a problem but not for me anymore at least.
Playing on Linux for a year now. I wouldn’t say it was flawless, but a lot has to do with me learning how to do it correctly. Like using steam and heroic game launcher, trying a different version of Proton or wine, and it’s beginning to be very easy now that I have the right recipe so to say.
Good to know, the main problem is that a good % of gamer doesn’t have time to a tryhard with different version of things, drivers… I have skill to setup a linux gaming machine but I don’t have time to do this. If Linux gaming becoming more and more straightforward (not as windows but similar, starting from gpu driver), more and more ppl could ditch at least windows second partition.
I must be clear that the problem is not that it rakes time to do the things if you have the right recipe to do them. It takes time to find it when you make a mistake.
The good way is simple: you need a system that’s well updated, so debian stable is not ideal and that was my first mistake. You need to use Proton on steam, or heroic game launcher for gog. And that’s it.
The setup for these things is straightforward, simply follow a guide for your OS.
Things got better and better in the last 2 years, and they’re still improving. I would argue that today Windows is not better. People learned how to install graphic drivers on windows, and any setup on Linux now is not harder than that.
A change proposal has been filed by Red Hat engineer Miro Hrončok for retiring Python 2.7 within Fedora 41 and to drop packages still depending upon Python 2.
We do not wish to simply orphan the package, as we are afraid it would not receive proper care if taken by somebody else.
If there are potential maintainers interested in maintaining Python 2 in Fedora beyond Fedora 41, they can talk to us and demonstrate their ability and will to take care of Python 2 by joining the maintenance early.
Users who need to run their application in Python 2 should do so on a platform that offers support for it.
Developers who still need to test their software on Python 2 can use containers with older Fedora releases or unsupported CentOS/RHEL versions."
The F41 change proposal still needs the approval of the Fedora Engineering and Steering Committee (FESCo), but it will presumably proceed – well, assuming GIMP 3.0 finally releases this summer so as to not block the Python 2.7 removal.

Oh nice. I used lxqt a couple years ago while I was taking a break from KDE Plasma. I liked it, light and fast and simple. I didn’t know v2.0 is coming out, I’m definitely going to try it.
