Hello, my name is Cris. :)
I like being nice to people on the internet and looking at cool art stuff
I mean… its definitely ethical, its just also freak behaviour 😅
Are there people telling linux folks to stop enjoying linux gaming…? I say ask as a linux person
Fuckin dope!
I was curious so I took a look, the new icon theme looks lovely
I haven’t used Inkscape much for a while but it’s always cool to see a project you’ve used a lot thriving!
I assume you’re not, but you aren’t logged in are you?
Otherwise I’d say fingerprinting or identifying your machine like another commenter suggested
Void is an option that seems like a good fit, but you’d need to figure out if it supports your hardware well since the hardware is so new. Its a stable rolling release that uses runit which seems like a lot of peoples favorite alternative init system.
Fedora is maybe also worth considering but it uses systemd. Not sure if it has minimal packages, but I’m pretty sure fedora has official Framework support, including for the 16, and strikes a really good balance between having current packages and cutting edge hardware support, and being stable.
Also, sorry people are ignoring what you said you want and are telling you what you should want instead 😅 not helpful y’all.
My impression is that Debian unstable/testing is generally considered much more stable than arch, I assume that extends to devuan. But I think they also share packages, which means packages have been patched a ton, which it sounds like you don’t want (I assume that’s what you meant by “mininal packages”)
Void Linux! It’s a very simple, completely independently distro without a dependence on a corporate funded project. It uses runit in place of systemd (I don’t mind systemd but it seems a lot of people just like runit better for being smaller, neater, and very reliable, which is cool)
It has a “stable rolling release” update model and provides vanilla packages. And the package manager xbps can install pre-compiled binaries or function more like portage or BSDs ports system for building from source (full disclosure, I’ve never used any of those nor the functionality in xbps so I don’t understand it super well). Oh and the community is helpful, and the documentation is pretty strong and doesn’t always just give you commands to run blindly (as someone who is trying to get more confident in the terminal I find that helpful)
The project has a very “less is more” philosophy which I really appreciate.
My one disappointment is that there isn’t a package kit implementation for xbps so I can’t use the graphical software store provided by my desktop environment :(
An image of me, right now
Fair honestly, I’m more or less in the same boat 😅
I’m glad you at least have a working system. And thank you, I appreciate it very much. I’ll find my way back where I need to be, I just have to figure out how first
Hey, sorry for just never getting back to you, I’m not going to be able to take a look at it, I’ve found myself in somewhat of a mental health crisis, but I hope youre able to work it out, I’m wishing you luck
Didn’t realize you could edit it, it’d be nice if there were options for using your computer for creative work like 3D modeling or digital art :)
I believe 17 is why you use disk encryption, as that was the question above for me
I really wish I could help, but I think you’re probably more advanced of a user than am unfortunately :(
In my experience installing I’ve just followed the callamares prompts and then had a usable system, but I haven’t used it long term yet, as I’ve been trying to learn how to install void linux before I potentially swtich to a more straight forward distro on my new laptop (seemed like a good opportunity to learn). I’ve been using linux for a long time now (probably more than 10 years) but I’m really an art and design person who’s mostly bumbled their way through it 😅
I just woke up, I’ll come back and take a look at things when I’m more awake and see if anything stands out to me
I’m not familiar with FCC unlock, from my initial half asleep googling it looks like a networking feature or service? If it’s functionality thats intended to be configured by spiral linux, you might try opening a bug report on the spiral linux github/got repo, the Dev seems like a pretty friendly guy. Or alternatively the linux 4 noobs community here on lemmy is actually pretty good, (regardless of whether the name might be directly applicable to you) if not incredibly active, and the people there are far more likely to be knowledgable than I am. Though frankly I’m guessing the reason it’s actually a helpful resource is because lemmy has a viable ratio of new linux users, to technical ones who are willing to help, an attribute I don’t think many spaces have lol
Like I said, I’ll take another look in a while and see if my awake brain has anything to add that might be more helpful to you. I’m sorry distros have been giving you such a struggle with networking, thats super frustrating
You’re very welcome ☺️
Hope you have a great day!
You might take a look at spiral linux, its basically a customized debian install that preconfigures a bunch of quality of life stuff for you and is set up to use btrfs with snapper by default. It doesn’t use custom repos intentionally so that (in the words of the developed) if the developer gets hit by a bus, nothing stops working. Your install just works like a pre-customized debian
Allowing a country’s political party to position their industry in a monopolistic way is a bad idea. When one group controls an industry they much more easily exploit their consumers. Encouraging folks to buy ev’s in general is different from undercutting prices to create a dominant position in the market that can be exploited once you have no meaningful competitors
That being said, we all know thats not why they’re doing it, they’re doing it to protect the interests of US auto makers, which also sucks
Dude that sounds rad! Thanks for mentioning them and explaining what they are, I’ll have to check that out!
What is radio free fedi?
I mean, if you can factory reset a phone to strip the need for authentication, that seems like kind of a bad thing, no?
If you’re looking for something Foss the closest things I know are FreeCAD, and apparently there’s a blender addon that adds parametric cad functionality. I’ve found FreeCAD frustrating, but I’ve not tried the blender addon/extension or whatever
