If you tighten just one side, it can pull the connector in that direction. Think of tightening heatsink screws unevenly on each side.

I don’t think you’d remember a break up from hundreds of years ago, let alone be upset about it.

I ran Bazzite on a mini form factor pc for about 12 months. It was just connected to the TV and used to play games.

I turned it on, I used my controller to start a game, that was it. I’m not sure what actions would be doing to break it.

I haven’t used it in about 6 months since I got a steam deck, but I just plugged it in and tried it again. Still starts up fine, played dead cells for a few minutes.

But if you’re looking for immutable distro for gaming then Bazzite is the gold standard.

Other immutable distros like Kinoite, Aurora, Aeon are targeted to desktop use, but in my experience they play games just fine too, no reason they wouldn’t (Aeon used to have a weird security policy that caused problems with Wine, but I think they changed that)

It should work I believe. used it on Opensuse tumbleweed, Fedora, bazzite, and CachyOS. Just by turning Bluetooth on and pairing it.

I was confused, but I think they might be asking why Veracrypt isn’t available as a flatpak

Yes, horror manga. I read it every year around this time.

It’s not really a fact, but some people might have the opinion that the manga made spirals creepy.

Spirals

I’ve only owned two cars. So the worst by default was a 1987 Ford Laser I owned in 2003.

It was the “Ghia” model. So central locking, sun roof. My uncle had modified the wheels, steering wheel, carbon shifter.

I actually loved it and it handled so well on gravel roads. But eventually the cv joints went, repaired, they went again, leaving me stranded 30km out of the nearest town.

No, but they do love grindcore as well.

Propagandhi?

Post-hardcore. Typically 90’s old school like Fugazi and Hot Water Music, and then especially 2010s style “the wave” Touché Amore and La Dispute.

Not the 2000s style that veered into emo and Metalcore territory. Although there were some fantastic bands around that time that experimented with the classic sound, like Thrice and At The Drive In, and an obviously earlier example of that being Refused.

The combination of hardcore punk with slow and mid tempo breaks, throw in spoken sections or poetry. If it’s done right it’s just beautiful and makes you feel everything.

But if it’s done wrong, it’s so bad, don’t even bother. Honestly, for me, there’s so many 2000s-era bands that are unlistenable, and to me don’t even fit the genre as far as what came before and after them. But everything changes and people experiment with different sounds.

And it’s such a flexible genre, you have bands that take post-hardcore sensibility and turn it into indie rock, like Manchester Orchestra.

I was going to mention camscanner, but it’s been years since I was in the android phone, so I wasn’t sure if it’s even still around.

There’s no mention of Phoenix before then. As with most of Marvel and DCs comic universe history, it’s almost all retcon at this point.

I assumed from the start this would be the issue. The mention of it happening to non-Steam games is the giveaway -

Steam provides pre-compiled shaders for the games they supply, non-Steam games have to build up their shader cache whilst you play.

Automatic updates are there with the right distro. Which highlights the need to look around for the right distro for the use case.

Example being Opensuse Aeon - automatic updates - doesn’t even tell you it’s happening, just pops up “your system was updated” out of nowhere

Automatic rollback - if an update broke something you would never know, at boot the system will pick the previous snapshot with no user intervention

As far as the user is concerned you just have a working system; that it is the entire goal of that distro

There’s not really anything to screenshot? This isn’t a launcher in the sense of a GUI that launches games. It will be used by other launchers Heroic, Lutris, Bottles, etc to better run games the way Steam does.

Increased compatibility, less issues with games not loading. Essentially it will allow non-Steam launchers to run games under wine more like Steam’s proton does.

Absolutely. Look at Aeon. I turn it on and do what I need to do.

Later I might see a quick pop up that says system has been updated. It didn’t require intervention. It didn’t even tell me it was happening, it just informed me after the fact.

If anything broke, I would never know because on the next boot if something failed it just uses the previous snapshot to boot. As far as I am concerned the system is working just like it always has.

But even as recently as this week I see people saying: immutable? No don’t make it a bad experience for them! Just recommend Ubuntu for newcomers! >:/

Absolutely. A few months after this I went directly to the person above my boss and explained the situation- mental health, physical health, turned into dependence on weekly psychologist sessions.

Basically told me to get over it.

This was a non profit organisation dedicated to helping homeless, refugees, victims of domestic violence, and elderly people who are unable to afford aged care. The people on the ground doing the work were amazing people. But the people in charge were all cosplaying as big business shitheads.

Shit job from 10 years ago. Getting too drunk at the office Christmas party and talking so much shit about my horrible fucking boss to a couple of influential senior managers who are close to the CFO. Freaked out all weekend about it, severe anxiety attacks. That mixed with the hangover I was just vomiting all weekend.

And then: Run into one of those senior managers early in the office on Monday morning, apologised for being inappropriate. Get a response “oh, we all know how bad she is, can’t believe you haven’t quit yet”.

Kalpa needs to attract more developers to keep up with Aeon’s pace. I understand it is usable as a daily driver, but it’s not just a one to one mirror of Aeon with Plasma on top.

https://sfalken.tech/posts/2024-06-08-how-do-aeon-and-kalpa-relate/

Richard Brown is all in on Aeon along with whatever contributors are helping him. Stephen Falken appears to have no one helping him work on Kalpa unfortunately. I disagree with Richard’s stance that Kalpa shouldn’t exist, but I do wish there were some capable people able to help that project.

I don’t mind using Gnome anyway, it actually does solve some networking issues that I’ve always had with Plasma. (Dolphin not handling it well whilst Gnome Files has no issues)
