Linux@lemmy.ml•I want to move out from Ubuntu and use something else.
32·8 months agoArch Linux!
I’m not normally a junk food guy, but I bought these just because the color scheme appealed to me, and they were the best Cheetos I’ve ever had: Cheetos Flamin’ Hot Tangy Chili Fusion.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Russia Mulls Forking Linux in Response to Developer Exclusions
279·1 year agoPlease don’t…
Can we organize and force the Linux Foundation and/or OFAC to exclude open source software from these sanctions? Is anyone doing that yet?

4·1 year agoThis video is entertaining and relevant to the whole plastic recycling scam too: https://youtu.be/PJnJ8mK3Q3g?si=nnpGsDwOJoGspfwZ
I enjoyed getting the IPv6 certification from Hurricane Electric. Everyone should learn about it! https://ipv6.he.net/

Linux@lemmy.ml•Editing (or running) file(s) regardless of current directory. [Cli tip]
13·2 years agoWhy not use bash-completion? The running example you gave is dangerous - you could end up running one or more of the wrong executables.
Arch Linux instead of Windows or MacOS
GrapheneOS instead of stock Android or IOS
Mastodon instead of Twitter/X
Matrix instead of Slack
Lemmy instead of Reddit
Signal instead of phone, texting, and video chat
Jitsi instead of Zoom
Nextcloud instead of Google Contacts, Calendar, and Drive
Protonmail with custom domain instead of Gmail
Jellyfin instead of Spotify, but I still use Spotify… :(
Pixelfed instead of Instagram, but its still lacking content and useable mobile apps.
Haven’t escaped YouTube yet, but meaning to browse Peertube more.
I’ve been a Linux-only gamer for years too, thanks to Proton, Vulcan, Lutris, etc. Still waiting for good VR though.
FOSS or GTFO!

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Who do you consider a Great Author of the last 50 years or so (first well-known work after 1970)? I'd like to get a feel for who's who in modern literature. Any language/culture. Fiction only.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Does anyone run their desktop environment containerized?
0·2 years agoAt work the only option I had was to get a Macbook, but I don’t like MacOS, so I installed UTM and I run Arch Linux (ALARM for aarch64) as my desktop. It’s functional, but of course I’d rather have a beat up, 5 year old Dell or Thinkpad so I could just run Arch natively.
I just watched this last week. An old housemate of mine filmed this way back in the day, haha. How bizarre to see it popping up on here out of the blue like this…

Memes@lemmy.ml•Does mountain dew taste better than black tea? Yes. Does it also cost 30 times as much to get the caffeine fix? Yes.
1·2 years agoI love the giant, inexpensive tins of ceylon tea at my local international market. If you can afford it, buy a bottle of rose water to add to the tea. Perfection. And of course, don’t throw away the leaves - steep them again - the second steeping is even better than the first one.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Whats a stupid ritual in your life that makes you happy?

Yeah, I still don’t know how to vote for this…
A vote for gerrymandering is bad, but a vote against it prevents us from using all of the profane tools of this corrupt system to fight…
Suggestions?
