Nouveau is stable and runs, but don't expect the best performance. The official NVIDIA driver is unstable, lacks proper wayland support but has decent performance. I'd go with anything but a NVIDIA GPU.

If someone comes to me I'm more than happy to answer questions and help, but I won't bring it up. People don't like being told that their tool of choice is "bad" "not optimal" or anything like that. Even if it's only their choice because they grew up with it or don't want to learn anything new. And they still need to learn if it's more than browsing the web.

Also I really don't want to be the one they come running to once something doesn't work the way they expected - or not at all. I don't have the time nor the inclination to be tech support for my family and half of my friends.

Is anything keeping you from just reinstalling the system and mounting your home into it again (maybe the majority of your customisations live in /home too)? I feel that is a lot less of a hassle than copying files around.

In principle you should be able to restore your system by just copying all of the relevant files from the backup to their correct partitions - it can't really get any worse if it doesn't work.

For the future: A backup is only any good if you know how to restore it and tested that that actually works.

Regarding the permissions: If you do a cp fileA.txt fileB.txt fileB.txt will normally be owned by the creating user. So a sudo cp ... will create the files as root.

I would personally use rsync with a few additional options, archive among them. This way the fs is restored exactly as it was. But that doesn't make a whole lot of sense if the files weren't copied that way too.

I couldn't even work if I had aliases in my muscle memory. Imagine ssh'ing to a server and every second command you issue doesn't exist because it's some weird alias you set up for yourself.

I'll stick with the "pure" command and use tab completion.

That's also part of the reason why I don't use some of the fancy new tools like ripgrep and exa.

Always, if nothing else it makes "wiping" them securely easier.

I'm not sure why they specifically say laptop, and then don't mention what's different to a desktop PC.

Then you click on the linked NVIDIA article and the first comment says, that it also happens on their desktop.

Mich würd ja interessieren, warum der Wirt nicht einfach den Gast darauf aufmerksam macht und spätestens nachm 2. Bier raus haut oder einfach nicht mehr bedient. Anstatt fröhlich weiter zu machen und dann die Polizei zu rufen.

Vielleicht hat der Wirt ja auch schon ein paar Bier intus gehabt und konnte nicht mehr so weit denken.

Oder die Polizei faselt einfach nen Stuss.

I would really like to know how this graph was generated, because some expenditure per capita values have three different corresponding life expectancy values. Just look at Spain for example.

I just recently updated shutup10 because of another annoyance of windows and was surprised that it didn't solve my problem right away. Even with shutup10 it's barely bearable.

Bash, not because its my favourite but because it's nearly ubiquitous. I don't want to have to think about which shell I'm using.

I get a summary once a week of all the updates. I then check the release notes and if nothing needs any changes just run the ansible playbook that updates to those releases. I don't want to get up and first thing in the morning read alert emails because an update failed over night, so i sit down for 10 minutes once a week.

What a function does should be self evident. Why it does it might not be.

So what's stopping you from putting your LaTeX files into a git repo and building them into a pdf when needed?

You can place the .xpi file in a special folder. On my linux system that is in /usr/lib/firefox/browser/extensions/. Which would be the system wide folder. There are others which only affect the current user thkugh.

The user folder is $profile_dir/extensions/. To open the profile directory you can type about:profile in you address bar and click on Open Directory besides Root Directory in the default profile section.

I just switch providers, it's easier to get a good deal than by staying and nagging customer support. Though I currently pay €10,- with my current provider because I also have fibre with them, so I'll probably stay with them for the foreseeable future.

I switched ever couple of years.
