This isn’t me asking for help or anything, I already replaced it with fedora kinoite. I just felt like talking about this ridiculous venture of mine....
I can understand why all the other things would be listed here, and I would understand if sexuality in general was considered inappropriate for children, but why homosexuality in particular? This is strange to me....
“Defending your rights” and being as loud as possible for the sake of it are 2 completely different things.
The two closest homosexuals in my life are my favorite uncle and my best friend, that happens to be my attorney. My uncle is openly gay, my attorney is married to another woman. This has absolutely NO impact in our interactions. Why? Simple, that’s their business, and everyone in their environment understands this.
Guess why I don’t have more gay people in my environment. Because I don’t like people, precisely because of this incessant need to be loud about irrelevant shit like sexuality. You lack so much of everything else that the only way you have to be seen is your sexual preference? That’s the saddest shit ever. That level of emptiness has to be grueling.
If you have to be constantly “defending” your sexuality, you need to examine the environment you have chosen to participate in.
The problem here is not sexual preference, the problem is that sexual preference, for reasons I can’t begin to understand, has become the defining factor for people, instead of principles, moral, honesty and just flat out being nice.
When was the last time you saw a “heterosexual” parade, specially with a bunch of people swinging it all out?
Also, make sure to install MS Fonts. Otherwise there’s a good chance sharing documents with Windows users will mess up formatting. I learned that the hard way.
Honest question out of sheer ignorance. Could this, in theory, open doors for an OEM to finally start working on a Linux mobile phone and for devs to spin distros for those phones?

At the end of the day, you should follow your personal priorities. Everyone that wants to contact me easily uses signal, and I choose to live life without much contact with those that do not use signal. Sure, they can call me over the phone, that’s one way to reach me, assuming I don’t have it in airplane mode (it spends around 70% of its on time there). But, I am one of those people that don’t really care to know about anyone else’s life. If they want me to know they’ll figure out how to reach me.
My wife and kids contact me exclusively over session, as do my business partners.
Haven’t been on FB for over 9 years now, and about 7 out of WhatsApp, and I have not missed them at all, not even the first day without. Never had Instagram.
I killed my Twitter the day before the acquisition by Musk was completed, and enjoy my online time researching self hosting, interacting in Lemmy, and having a few laughs on Mastodon.
I feel my mental health has improved exponentially because of these choices. But you’re going to have to choose where it starts to be a heavy task for you, and I suggest you stop right at that point.
My wife is as strong as every wife out there and I’m still stupid enough to try to go against her will every now and then. That’s why men die younger on average 🤣
Dangerous opinion, I’ve recently moved to Fedora after Ubuntu and after customising it on the GNOME desktop, it’s literally Ubuntu (But better) in every way except no snaps....
I’m on Linux from way back when Mandriva was badass. Because of work I spent many years on Windows, from 95 to Windows 7. Returned to Linux in the Form of PopOS and Linux Mint.
Fast forward to today, been running Fedora or a spin for the last 2 years, with the eventual distro hop only to land back on Fedora.
My wife and I both run Fedora Gnome on our work PCs, Bazzite on my gaming laptop, and my 10 years old daughter runs Nobara on her laptop.
All in all, Fedora is always where I come back to. No regrets.
Could be I’m just lucky, but I upgraded Fedora desktop to 40 while still in beta, and never had any issues with codecs. As a matter of fact, I in every install I immediately install all codecs, as well as MS fonts, never had a single issue.
I have a trusty UnRaid server that has been running great for almost 3 years now, with some kinks and headaches here and there, but mostly very stable. Now I’m entertaining the idea of setting that box up with ProxMox, and running UnRaid virtualized. The reason being that I want to use UnRaid exclusively as a NAS and then run...
I would like to ask for some suggestions on the initial process to migrate the data from UnRaid.
Considering that:
My disk pool is made out of 2 10TB disks, for a total of 20TB
It also has a 10TB parity disk
The pool is using just -6TB of the storage
The option I see is:
Get another 10TB disk
I can clear the parity drive and copy my data from the pool to that disk for migrating
Configure the pool disks to RaidZ and once I complete that, use the other 2 disks as parity pool
Or, I bite the bullet, get brand new 10TB disks, 12 to make it Raidz2 and have a storage pool of 40TB (35 usable?). I’m thinking 4 groups of 3 disks each should do the trick. Then use the same method to migrate my data.
With 64GB of ECC RAM, I should have a pretty swift storage IOPS that way.
So, if I’m running ProxMox off of 2 NVMe drives in RAID, I can just pass through SATA and USB for the UnRaid VM and just NFS my way to happiness, right?
I’m still testing each of my UnRaid containers on ProxMox, and so far they all work fine. With a Ryzen 7 5700G and 64GB ECC RAM, I could give the UnRaid VM just 2 cores and 4GB of RAM, and should be smooth sailing from there, right?

Does any distro read through 100% of the source-code of a package before adding it to its repo?
Using Ubuntu may give off hipster vibes to the average PC user, but within the Linux community its has the opposite effect.
hot take?...
