Buying second hand is underrated. I’ll often try buy something second hand first and just give it a good clean, I’ve saved loads like that.

I would love to see your script! I’m in desperate need of a better backup strategy for my video projects

governorkeagan ,

I love this community because of responses like this.

governorkeagan ,

This. The only threads ads I’ve seen have been related to what I’m interested in

I use a different service that provides a similar functionality and it really is a game changer! I wish you the best of luck

I was unemployed for a (luckily) short period of time and it made me realise even more that as much as I enjoy the work I’ve done in 2023 (I work in tech) it’s not what I want to do forever.

I have started getting things ready to make my company official in 2024 which will bring me one step closer to leaving my 9-5.

governorkeagan ,

I made the first step in starting my own company. 2024 I’ll be working on getting more clients so that I can quit my 9-5

Need Some Total Noob Advice for Installing and Running Linux

Alright, peeps, I want to build Linux on my new PC and need some help with that. On my old PC, I had kubuntu installed, which I liked (at least until downloading Skype fried most of my installers and rebuffed all attempts at deinstallation). When installing kubuntu, I had a lot of help (and by a lot, I mean my friend did like...

  1. Pop!_OS and Zorin OS are both really nice beginner friendly distros (besides the ones already mentioned).
  2. github.com/Gingeh/wallpapers
governorkeagan ,

Have you tried booting in with a live usb? You might be able to do some sort of recovery from there.

Having said, I’m still very much a Linux noob.

There’s a bug on v0.19 that is affecting outgoing federation. I believe it’s fixed on v0.19.1.

What’s testing?? /s

[SOLVED] Davinci Resolve Plugin Issue on Nobara

I’m currently daily driving Pop!_OS and absolutely love it! I’ve even riced it a little. In the almost 2 months that I have been using Linux as my main OS I have seen a lot of talk about Nobara. I’ve got a spare SSD in my system so I did a quick install on there to see if it would be worth moving. My main priority is...

governorkeagan OP ,

Thank you!

I ran an update after installing Nobara from the welcome page thing. I also ran a dnf update later.

I’ll have a deeper dive tomorrow and try figure out what package has libharfbuzz. Any tips on how to do this effectively?

Resolve is an interesting case since they only officially support 3 distros. They have a .run file which installs the application. resolve on linux

governorkeagan OP , (edited )

I just checked on Pop!_OS to see what version I’m running there because I know everything works fine. harfbuzz isn’t even installed…

When I’m finished work later today I’ll have a look on Nobara for the version installed cs expected etc.

EDIT: I solved the issue.I came across a similar issue on the GitHub repo for harfbuzz and while reading the log file again I had an ah-ha moment. More details in the post.

I’ve got it on my fiancées laptop. She doesn’t use it very often though. It’s a decent enough experience

governorkeagan ,

Not necessarily, it depends on the demographic of the user. I highly doubt that my grandparents would decide to switch this “eyesore of a layout”.

I agree that some will switch, but definitely not everyone.

governorkeagan ,

What works for you won’t work for someone else. The Windows design works just fine for some and that’s okay. Not everyone is trying to be a super power user

governorkeagan ,

Reading this is making me want to try Arch on my second drive just so I can say “I use Arch btw” lol

governorkeagan ,

It’s great for multitasking without slowing down any other programs you may be running at the same time.

Depending on what sort of programming you are doing, you might use more of the RAM than “normal”.

governorkeagan ,

You don’t necessarily need to do something for the device to be hacked. There could be an exploit that affects all devices running ChromeOS (or any OS for that matter).

TL;DR: Yes you can.

governorkeagan ,

This. There’s a handful of subreddits that aren’t on Lemmy that I miss but generally speaking I’ve got everything I need on Lemmy. I’m also a lot more engaged here.

governorkeagan ,

Have you tried the Zoom web app? They have a link on their site where you can join a meeting in your browser to test if your webcam/mic work correctly

YSK: You can search (most of?) lemmy as a search engine

Due to the nature of fediverse, you can’t just do a “site:lemmy” search as you’d do with reddit (site:reddit.com). I was searching for ways to do it on my firefox browsers and I came to a solution that searches 21 different instances simultaneously, which I consider to be a big part of lemmy (I also include kbin...

How do you find Kagi? I’ve seen it popping up more and more recently

(solved) I can't get my linux system to run properly

I chose to use opensuse tw kde based on some vm tests. The installation was easy but for some reason the video playback on youtube is terrible. It stutters. First thing I did after install was to use opi to install codecs. Then I used Yast to get the Nvidia repo. Lastly, I used the software manager to install the video g06...

governorkeagan ,

Is it only on YouTube? Have you tried another browser or watching a video locally?

governorkeagan ,

OP is running on bare metal. They used the VM for testing and have now moved on from that

governorkeagan ,

I’ve seen other comments suggest possibly trying a different distro, if that is the case I’d highly recommend Pop!_OS. They have an Nvidia specific ISO that works brilliantly, I’ve not had any issues with it.

governorkeagan ,

based on some VM tests

Personally, this makes it seem like they have already done tests in a VM. OP would need to clarify for us though.

Is linux good for someone tech illererate.

Now i’ve been considering moving to linux. I don’t have much of a history using a computer and find it tougher to use than my phone. But I also really appreciate the foss movement. I’ve currently got an old laptop running windows 11 I think and it would prolly speed up with linux too. But I’m afraid I’d fuck smth up...

governorkeagan ,

+1 for Pop!_OS, it’s not given me any issues at all! Zorin OS, looks really good as well, especially if you want a more Windows (visually) experience

governorkeagan ,

This. I’ve gotten some quality content from 1337x!

governorkeagan ,

I got a bunch of stuff from them last year, didn’t know about this. Thank you!

governorkeagan ,

I’d been playing with the idea of building a Linux app. I used Post Haste on Windows to help me organise footage but haven’t found a substitute on Linux yet.

why am I told that I'm a child on the internet?? I'm 20!!

whenever I post or talk to people on an online forum or something like that, they think that I’m a child or “chid-llike” q.q That is fake!! I’m not a child because I am 20 years old ok!! But it’s ok if they think that, I think it’s something disrespectful >.

governorkeagan ,

Where’s the popcorn? I’m loving the comments (specifically the OPs responses)!

The Distro Wars are good actually.?

If all the seemingly pointless discussions about which distro is better comes from attachment to a spesific distro and if a distro is just a way to interract with linux than all the discussion about witch distro is better etc. fundementally comes from a a place of love and appreciation for Linux as an OS....

governorkeagan ,

I think it’s a double edged sword.

On the one side, you can see it as bringing more attention to Linux and allowing a broader audience to find Linux.

On the flip side, the threads about which distro is best can get very toxic.

governorkeagan OP ,

ibb.co/SVRjbyjibb.co/SnSB5cV

This was bought from Aldi

governorkeagan OP ,

I’ve bought plenty like that, they’re sliced and bundled together in a plastic container. Unless there is some substance between them that I’m unaware of

governorkeagan ,

I’m just adding useful extra information to the thread.

Sorry for being a bit of a dick, I think you mean that the file “is 3.8MB”.

The sentence I was referring to in my original comment.

Edit: added context

governorkeagan ,

This may be a “c/nostupidquestions” question but are there any recommendations for someone who might want a backup account?

In my case, my main account (this account) is from a small instance. I’d assume that then that I should have a larger instance as a backup, correct? I can also see the other side where it doesn’t matter
