This is easily number one. I enjoy my computing experience when using Ubuntu. Whether it’s just using the computer for usual human things, noodling with new software from source, or getting new hardware working. It’s fun. I don’t find Windows or MacOS fun, at all. They work, but they’re not fun....
lf (as in list files) is a modern alternative to ranger with significant improvements in terms of speed and reliability. This guide is intended to help users who are familiar with ranger to switch to lf more comfortably.
Are there any good tools for listing your current programs, maybe exporting settings etc. Listing hidden settings and save locations would be great too....
I often switch between phones and speakers, but I’m too lazy to do it through the sound preferences window. So I came up with this script*, and I’m sharing it here as others might find it useful....
I’ve been using PopOS for a few months now, and I’m interested in Arch, but I’m worried about whether or not I have enough experience to do that successfully. Also, I have an Nvidia GPU until I start a new build in the next year or so. I don’t know if that’ll be a problem in Arch. It was a major issue with Fedora for...
Hi all, I’m switching motherboards. No dGPU. Going from an Intel MB to an AMD one. I have my root partition on an nvme and the home one on a 2.5" sata. Do I need to reinstall, or can I just move the drives from the old MB to the new one without a problem? Figured since both Intel and AMD drivers are both baked into the kernel...
Hey all! I recently installed CachyOS which comes with linux-cachyos-bore as the default kernel, and I have to say that it does feel a lot snappier to just use and click around, even though I have almost the exact same Plasma setup as my previous Arch install. So now I’m wondering how many great patches and forks I’m missing...
Saw the post here regarding CentOS’s off-springs and a couple of people brought up the excellent point of: why play with fire? Let’s just stick to Debian....
TIL that I can use Perl’s Benchmark module to time and compare the performance of different commands in an OS-agnostic way, ie as long as Perl is installed....
So, recently, I bought an nvme ssd to replace the very old ssd I have on my laptop. I don’t know what the non-nvme is called. It shows as “sda” on the system. Anyway, doubled the storage. The new drive is an nvme WD black SN770. I have the same one running just fine on an optiplex dell mini running endeavourOS. Zero...
How does this coverage hold up? It was a fun read from back in my highschool days, when I was still five years from trying Linux on my own AMD Thunderbird 1Ghz. It wasn’t until 2008 that I tried again and it stuck.
