  • Duh, we have high-speed rail in Morocco. It's called Al Boraq and is the best way to blast from Casablanca to Tangier.

    And it is not overpriced like in France, where the tgv is more expensive than a taxi to the airport, your plane ticket, and then another taxi.

  • That Fedora Spin just works. This afternoon I fired up mine to a colleague, he was blown away: I've got the Spinning Cube! And the Wobbly Windows! Dzoinggg!

    But seriously (tho I love my Cube), kdenlive, Ardour, the works, and all on modern pipewire - just works. It's what I need, it is indeed fantastic work, both from the Asahi team and the Fedora people.

    (Yes, I had to do all those things to get Netflix, yikes)

  • I want to know more about this picture.

    • Is it on display in an Haunted House exhibition to frighten children?
    • Does the owner of these racks sleeps next to it, and is that under his mum's house?
    • Can it run doom?
  • A cool turn on that one is by the Arch Linux Wiki, which calls it Read The FINE Manual. Owning to the fact that this particular wiki is quite excellent. I use Arch BTW.

  • I use Connect.

    Plenty of features. Last time I checked, it was on par, or better, with sync. As ad-supported freeware, sync just bas too many ads, which on my phone turns into endless black squares of blocked content.

    You van support Connect with the usual buy-me-coffee thingy.

  • Which you should absolutely do even if you snapshot the eff out of your system. What about hardware failure, eh? Can't snap that nvidia shit can you?

  • Tumbleweed does it, comes preconfigured out of the box. TBH I'm trying to get the same on Arch & fail. The snapshot-before-change are easy enough, but reverting is where I fail.

  • Si does tumbleweed, two-clicks rollback from the GRUB menu

  • THIS!

    Not one more repository to add, sign, reload at each update. And can get compromised.

    Not one more piece of software to run that may, or may not, run properly (looking at you ProtonVPN)

    Just download the wireguard or openvpn configs to some desired exit points, load them into NetworkManager as described, and BINGO you have an integrated way of switching desired location, a visual icon in the taskbar confirming your status, and no extra hassle.

    Did you know that qbittorrent can be told to only work if the VPN is on? There are places where it matters.

    And to answer your question, no, that is not normal. If a piece of software isn't available for your distribution, then consider finding another. Like, here, using NetworkManager to do the job!

  • Except one, all of them are very short indeed. Tho when I discovered the series, All Systems Red was cheap, probably to get you hooked. I liked them a lot, tho after a while it tends to repeat itself a bit. I'd say buy them one at a time and decide how far you'll go?

    I truly enjoyed them.

  • Mac. Why the eff can I not remove StockMarket, Weather, Chess (and so many more)... On an Audio WorkStation dedicated to Studio / Live work? Even in terminal, command line from rescue mode with permissions butchered. Argh.

  • It's complicated, but it looks like this season's gonna be 60% Morocco 30% France. I'm Belgian. I have too many toothbrushes.

    It is nice over here indeed, very safe and friendly.

  • Even if the TP unrolls on the side of the wall?

  • I checked all the replies before replying here, and but for this "here in China" one, nobody seems to live / be / exist outside the catholic sphere ?

  • Seriously, how many of us lemmies live somewhere else? I'm in Rabat atm, there's zero assassinated pine trees covered in brightly coloured plastic shit in sight. And everything is Business As Usual here.

  • I'd push this further: I install what I need now, and then install anything else when needed. Old installs get bloated because of shit we pull over time. A new one has to be fresh. When testing a new distro you wanna see it at its (default) best.

  • Thanks! I don't know GB, but I've seen people around me use it heavily.

    I've been working with macs since a long time - goes with the job. I know they'll work great also with my stuff like midi keyboards (I have so many...) and Live and, and.

    I'll see tomorrow if what's on the counter is actually available. Thanks again, your enthusiasm is heartwarming!

  • Thanks for the actual "M1" answer.

    I'll be still mixing and mastering (and lighting) on Linux, as I've been on anything from Slackware to SuSE to Arch since 2006 ; I believe my current showstoppers are bad luck with secondhand hardware, and pebkac on pipewire software. It just happens that for live, real-flesh-on-stage-and-audience, I can't afford the risks. It hurts.

  • And if the date is dull, at least you've enjoyed an excellent soup.

    Traditionally served in the morning tho - do you do morning dates ?
