"What? A redneck?"

"Yeah, got a sunburn on a 'black lives matter' ralley.

Don't know if you're trolling, but pentimenti are small changes or corrections artists do, while drawing/painting.

There is a german youtuber who does a "5 minute Harry Podcast" where she analyzes 5 minutes of the first Harry Potter movie each time and they are mostly half an hour to an hour long.

Is there something like the banana voicemeeter for pipewire?

I am currently using Helvum, which is kinda lacking a lot of the functionality.

Sorry, but this guide is all over the place.

You mention Arch before other distros and never even explain what a distros is (e.g. 'a flavor of Linux with a choice of preinstalled software').

Then you say that it's a beginners and not an advanced tutorial, but mention advanced distros.

Also your reasons for the beginner distros are not well written:

1. Fedora mentions "rightful backlash against the company"
2. Linux Mint "I haven't used"
3. Pop OS "shares some issues"

Why take one of them? They all sound difficult or weird. (to a newby reader)

Then the part about Ubuntu and Manjaro which is longer than the 3 distros you recommend. This has major "Linux fanboy bashing other Linux fanboys" vibes.

The rest I really liked, maybe replace "this era" with "its era".

There are a lot of big ones like Ubuntu, Mint, Debian, Fedora or Arch. Arch is for users with a little more experience. But funnily enough Arch has like child-distributions, that build upon its core. Ubuntu is also a 'child' of Debian an Mint builds onto Ubuntu.

It's kind of like three or four big families, that had lots of children. 😂

(and then there are NixOS, OpenSuse and lots of others, which I forgot)

It has to do with Linux.

Linux itself is not a fully fledged operating system as most people would expect it. Since Linux has to work on servers and microchips as well as on desktop PCs, lots of stuff is not shipped with it.

For example Linux is missing a way to display windows and has no real package manager.

A distro (or distribution) is a predefined set of of software, that makes it easier for a user to use Linux.

This is mostly a window manager or desktop environment like KDE or GNOME, a package manager like apt or pacman and useful software like an office suite, a browser and other stuff.

Distros also exist for servers, the ln they don't include a way to display images, but still have a package manager and other useful stuff preinstalled.

That's of course not all, but maybe gives you a little overview.

I have rephrased the text.

Okay, I actually never tried that. Thanks.

Okay, I am intrigued and did not find anything right away. Can you give me a link?

Yeah, but I want to get rid of my wireless keyboard in favor of a small website/app for my phone.

Can I run Jellyfin on my laptop, but close it up and choose the video to watch via a different browser on my phone?

But that is a lot harder to do and requires more resources.

If you have a tracking pixel now, the company directly knows your browser from you downloading that pixel. If they were to implement the single-backend stuff, the site would have to gather all that information themselves and then send it to all the trackers. But they can't just send it somewhere, because then everyone could send bogus info to them so you need verification and an api and that is costly and each company would build their own api so you need to buy a program that speaks all those apis... You get the point. It's a LOT more work than just pasting the text for some pixel somewhere on your site and let the others do the rest.

Of course. I donate to the Lemmy developers, Wikipedia and a few others.

But donating is kinda hard sometimes because I would really like a system, where dependencies also get some.
Take Lemmy for example. It's built with rust and uses lots of crates (libraries). So why not give like 50% to Lemmy and the other half to the used crates. And those also split with their dependencies.

I don't use obsidian. I use Joplin. It has nextcloud integration and works flawlessly.

For the rest (e.g. Tasks, Collaborate Office) I use DAVx5 and the nextcloud App to sync.

Wow, this is at least 15 years in the making! Good stuff!

Unfortunately I'm more of a DK2 fan. 😄

But I looked, if it's worth to contribute and it's 90+% C... Ouch.

If it was really consistent, it would be something like onety seven but not really either, since it's also not twoty seven.

PS: Eleven would be onety one.

Doesn't Nextcloud do all this?

I don't really know, why it really HAS to be all that. I think that not a lot of people will have those specific set of requirements.

Also I really dislike the section about "solving not wanting to self host by making it federated" that is not how that works. Please host stuff yourself. Please support those who host your stuff. This part makes you sound cheap and stupid.

Akschually he was trying to assemble himself and was failing. So you could say that those are mistakes he made, because he was just learning.

But then again it's just a comic by someone who probably didn't do a full course on biology of the human circulatory system for one panel.
