My first lemmy account was on an instance called iusearchlinux.fyi then it just disappeared suddenly and without explanation (admin probably burnt out). Anyway, it was nice to be able to tell people i use arch linux without actually having to tell them. I miss that instance
I tried hosting for myself and 6 months in it was hitting memory limits (prob because of friendica and sharkey on the same instance) Did not care enough about hosting my own content to deal with that.
I've been playing it on and off since launch and never got less than 60fps 😅, but generally around 120fps as I had a 3d vision monitor(that didn't work so well in source games though iirc).
didn't get as far as seeing a framerate in arch, couldn't work out why it wasn't working and gave up 😅
haven't checked my framerate in Ubuntu but felt like about 144 or something like that
Depends on what you consider "working", having my calculator and browser load for a minute or two before being able to do anyting and being unable to keep a specific software version as long as I need to doesn't really work for me.
You can only lock them for a while last tine I checked, can't you?
I've needed an old GIMP version before for a project I was working on. I wasn't using Ubuntu at the time, but would've been pretty screwed if it just updated itself after X months.
I'm specifically talking about Snaps, I have no issues with native packages and controlling them. The problem is, since apt has become a wrapper for snap in Ubuntu, I can't even really tell what's being installed anymore.
That rage was why I switched lol. All our work computers are on 11 and they frequently reset so almost every time I log in I get to freshly rage and spend a minute resetting the task bar and default adobe to the pdf reader.
No Microsoft! I cant use edge as a pdf editor why on earth would you think that.
This doesn’t look like Arch.
Debian users will eventually tell everyone, but it’ll take 2 years before they see the question.
Gentoo users would too, but their social skills are still compiling
I use arch btw

The server it ran on crashed after an update, and the wiki doesn't mention recovery of a lemmy instance.
Oh i didnt know about this. Where did you read this, id like to see if theres more info?

I'm using CachyOS which is based on Arch btw.
I tried it but TF2 wouldn't launch so I switched to Ubuntu.
If a user doesn’t learn how to manage nvidia proprietary drivers on arch, they probably are in a better home at ubuntu
Assuming that this was the problem…
I installed TF2 on a Mac with only integrated graphics in college and played a ten to twelve FPS slideshow for years.
It was Debian as well.

You should switch to Bazzite btw

If I was getting programmer socks in exchange for my personal data I wouldn't care so much about privacy.
arch btw
The first rule of Linux is you talk about Linux. The second rule of Linux is do talk about Linux.
1st rule of Kernel club is you talk about Linux. 2nd rule of kernel club is you never talk about gnu
Ouch, that hurds.
Q: A crossfit trainer, a vegetarian, and a Baptist Christian walk into a bar. How do we know?
A: They told every god damn person in the bar within the first 5 fucking minutes
Can also add airplane pilot to that
Oh there's a long list
What does a crossfitting, vegan, Arch user talk about first?
They probably have a Tshirt
Vegetarians aren't generally animal rights activists
TBF I flubbed the joke it was supposed to be "vegan"
(I'm vegetarian fwiw)
Oh so you're just slathering all your vegetables in BEE VOMIT??
Yes
Sweet
Indeed!
Fake. Doesn't say shit about stockings
That's because these are GUI users, the real TOS is written in an arcane format only viewable by a cat or a bat.
Steam Deck Users be like:
"arch btw"
You son of bitch I'm in!
As an enlightened Mint user...
As a mint Enlightenment user I can only sneer at these plebes.
Enlightenmint was just sitting there
You would think they'd at least experimint with a few lines before they cast admonishmint at we poor souls who are so pArched for a good line.
I use Ubuntu btw.
:/
:) It just works.

Unironically can't tell if this is a comment about using Linux or Windows. Either way most likely a skill issue
Never had those problems! I've locked certain software versions before. But, every user has different needs. :)

Did they fix the Snap startup time, finally?
There are different ways of holding back packages: with dpkg, apt, dselect, aptitude or Synaptic. Lots of options.

I don't often use Snaps, so I dk. Regardless, KDE bugs are my biggest slow down lmao.

Well I guess its better than windows.
Every time I have to, I have an inexplicable rage that appears deep within me that goes away as soon as I don't have to deal with it anymore.
That rage was why I switched lol. All our work computers are on 11 and they frequently reset so almost every time I log in I get to freshly rage and spend a minute resetting the task bar and default adobe to the pdf reader.

AND WHY CANT I MOVE THE TASKBAR
And we obey!
Install Linux, everybody!
You'll get free cookies
This is actually only in the Arch installer. lmao
I am obligated to inform you that I run linux.
This is hilarious 🤣
I use Arch BTW — just in case if Arch has that in their terms.
Seems very reasonable.
I don't tell EVERYONE. I just tell my coworkers and friends...
You have family, neighbors, people in the parking lot that you are obligated to share your wisdom with
It do be like that :p
somewhat oddly, in the real world, a clause like this would make the program no longer free and open source software
BTW
