Debian.

It’s stable. Everything has support for Debian. I’m comfortable with Debian. Also everything that is not available as a deb-package goes in a docker container.

I run a bunch of Minecraft servers, the *arr stack, and pihole on a single NUC.

I also have a VPS. Also Debian. It is my VPN gateway for my home network (tinc is nice) and everything that needs to be public facing (minecraft proxy+a website that I host for my sister).

My work laptop + gaming rig is LMDE which is also Debian.

I’m not so much a Debian fanboy but my tinkering days were in the past, if I would still have the time I would probably run something cool like Arch or NixOS. Now I just want something that works.

Oh yeah, my media player is a Pi with LibreElec. Write to SD card and you’re done :)

Based on 1.7.10? Woah. Was there a reason for that?

I could not turn off mouse acceleration, which was a deal-breaker for me.

Actually not Wayland’s fault if I remember correctly, something about libinput changing it’s format, and my window manager wasn’t compatible with it yet. After trying for several hours I found a bug report (can’t find it right now). The Devs thought it was a minor issue, but for me it was huge so I decided I’ll wait another year.

I must say, Wayland was smoooooth, didn’t even experience X as slow until I tried Wayland.

I think that that’s on purpose, don’t make it so easy to get all enhancements? Getting mending on your tools is a project or if you play on a server: something you can set up a shop for and earn diamonds once you’ve done it.

If you’re a real F1 fan you know history is full of this kind of dominance.

So … if you wonder who will win it’s not worth watching.

I like to watch Albon doing well, Alonso doing amazing things, and hoping for Leclerc to get a result, Yuki keeping softs alive with some big guns behind him, while teams frantically try to get the best tactical moves while rain might drop now or in 20 minutes, and you don’t know how much.

You didn’t watch? You missed a fun race!

Care to elaborate?

I’m a hetzner user for years and if they are bad I haven’t noticed yet.

Ah but then you are talking about servers? That would be a different story! The machine that I use for development (laptop) should always work (I would trust nixos with this) and if I want to spin up a container (docker run) or install an application (apt install)or change my vpn client configuration it is currently effortless and I’m not sure nixos can do that.

Actually using nixos for some of my private servers would be a nice use case…

I’m very critical of all the immutable distrubtions - as an old timer in tech I’ve seen so many things come and go. I’m also curious, ofcourse, and already tried out a VM with NixOS and everything seemed fine. But I’m going to wait it out before something like that becomes my main driver, I have a job to do (development, systems, stuff) and I cannot afford to say “sorry little to no progress today, my OS needs tinkering”.

(Feel free to tell me I’m wrong :-) I love to tinker with new stuff).

Could even be a hard link… (some applications don’t like symbolic links).

Edit: or a mount point.

Make sure to stop the application, mount the drive and link it, start the application again You have a backup? :-)

I have good experiences with managing inputs and outputs with pavucontrol, which has a nice GUI. You can choose output per application (I have multiple outputs, headset-microphone on jackplug for meetings, a USB device for HiFi headphones, and a USB device that goes into speakers for when I’m home alone and my noise doesn’t bother anyone - pavucontrol covers that).

If you really want to go into the deep end you might try https://jackaudio.org/ but that’s a very deep end and I hope you won’t need it, but it’s very powerful.

Tuxedo is German? I had a laptop from them and it was perfect:-)

(It was a company laptop, unfortunately had to return it when I got a new job)

Yeah just like I can edit records in the database?

I’m not trying to be critical of the project, I really want to know what makes this project different than a shared database , if that is what it is?

I am not sure, a CSV file is technically a data source equal to a database, so how is this different from sites that collect torrent-links (which are targeted by anti-piracy organisations?)? The fact that it is self-hostable?

It’s always infuriating that the git repo is full of documentation but I cannot find an answer to the question: What Is It Exactly?

Lol, link gives an error right now but I have the image in my head so it’s okay :)

As a European: low power consumption!

Good bot!

I have noticed different distributions have different boot times? I remember arch being a lot faster than Ubuntu. (Maybe due to choosing to have everything included and enabled by default, or more bare bones distributions).

It is a lifesaver in some cases
