they should know how to change a flat or put in coolant

and care design, just like ux, is evolving in a way where the service industry takes the role of the user in maintaining their tools

professionals are more likely to prefer a locked down easy environment because of it’s lack of variation the same way one would prefer a bare cli debian over a full featured distribution of even windows with all it’s features and trinkets that can eat time away from the main task, mac os is bare and easy like a desk with nothing but a pen and clipboard, pretty bad if you want to fix a ventilator but perfect if you just want to write

do you mean tiling window manager or just window managers in general ?

i3 is the one most people use so you’ll find a truckload of support and documentation about it online, if you wand to be the cool kid try dwm, and if you wand to rise to the top of of c/unixporn get hyprland.

doesn’t that do all of them together, possibly making you install it multiple times ?

you may find other repos a bit lacking compared to manjaro’s since they have a few things in there that are added on top of the arch ones, aur is the same across all arch based distributions and aside from ubuntu, most other distributions will have fewer useful package than those two.

you could try garuda wich integrates aur package in the system’s repository through the chaotic-aur repo, and they do have a cinnamon flavor

wow, you sperged out quite hard about such a simple problem, I’m glad you will be using windows from now on and won’t be hanging around *nix related discussion platforms

You should switch back to windows, that would fix your problem.

it’s one of those packages that are only put in the repo with the intent on being itself a dependency of the full kde desktop, since it’s a component of the deskop and not just a random theme

Pacman is the most braindead straight to the point package manager of them all, it won’t take you very long to memorize the 3 letters you need to use it.

because of course, pointing out that capitalism will cause a specific problem can only be a disguised attempt to resuscitate Joseph Stalin.

Nah, bash is fine.

how dare you criticize smystemD, I spent 20 years having to write startup scripts in assembly with a quill and feather and i can tell you that sistem_d is literally life changing, I stopped drinking an got out of prison ever since arch implemented it

at some point in my computer life, I realised that with most new window I oppened, I was dragging them to the side to tile them next to the other in order to not lost track of either the content of the other window like a webpage or a running script or to more easily drag stuff between them without having to move the first window, now behind the new one, it wasn’t that annoying or time consuming since I’m pretty fast with a mouse, but it did require me to focus on the positioning of the window to get going, tiling completely removed that aspect, no I only interract with the window to resize them or change screen, which is far less often that I use to move them around to un-obstruct them

the main advantage of snapshots is how fast it happen, in two reboots with little to no wait time you can get your system back

f12 iirc, and it’s normal mode

in the bios config menu, you can access it when you start up your computer and spam the appropriate keyboard key, you can find out which key it is by the brand of the computer, or the brand of the motherboard if you assembled the pc yourself, then inside the bios config menu you will find the secure boot option.

for example, on my computer, I need to turn it off completely, then press the power button and quickly press the f2 key repeatidely, then instead of launching my operating system, it launches the bios config menu, and in that menu, under the “boot” section, I find a line called “secure boot” which I can enable and disable, once i’ve done so, I press f10 to save the configs I made, and boot my system where I want

it shouldn’t reset your device, secure boot is only there to prevent someone from doing exactly what you’re trying to do, booting another os on the computer, that said, if you’re going to mess around with a linux installer without full knowledge of what you are doing you should absolutely back up your entire drive first, the easiest method being phisically removing the hard drive and putting another one in

I always wondered why none of them could agree on which f key does what, especially when they all already agree that ctrl-alt-del restart the computer

alright that’s good, that means it’s seeing the key as bootable, you need to enter the bios config, same procedure, but it’s another f key, then you will find an option that’s called secure boot and you can change it from “enabled” to “disabled”, on some bios, you first need to erased the stored secure boot key first
