Me thinks someone has a secret affection for a certain group of people.

What other good options are there out there?

yeah, the new Plasma is hard to beat. I want to like Gnome.. I just see no compelling features, really.

That this is a thing and that is the result, blows my mind.

Viktor had no business debating Yanis. Destroyed.

You don't really compile anything during or after install with arch linux unless you find something on the AUR that needs to compile? If so, just look for .

Otherwise, a really nice system is NixOS.

Another is GNU Guix.

Yeah, reaper is definitely not open.

I think my all time favorite for learning a new language is language transfer. Though, I don't see a polish or Japanese option, sadly.

And Krita!

i think Zotero is indeed open source, free software

I think you might like to try it. Maybe to get a taste for it try the nix package manager first. Right now I'm kind of struggling on whether or not NixOS is the one for me or Gnu Guix. Both are pretty awesome.

Right, thank you. I haven't had my coffee yet. I should have been more clear.

Okay, so I haven't installed Debian in quite some time, but I think I know what's happening here.

It's looking for the CD / DVD "repos" because it may be enabled in your apt sources. You just have to comment out the lines involved with CD and DVD in your /etc/apt/sources.list file I think.

Uh, yeah. Cheers

I am not entirely sure why I thought it was something to do with the filesystem. It's just weird.

I found that if I put, say, a text file in Documents then log out and back in, those symlinks show up.

Ah well. so long as nothing breaks, it's not that bad.

Says them, I guess. Feels kinda weird to me.

And at this time, our telemetry system won’t be rolled out to any team or business using 1Password.

Uhh, what? If it's opt-in why does it matter if team or business doesn't have this? Different standards? To go through such lengths to explain this telemetry stuff to convince people, "Oh, no worries, yo! It's OPT-IN! Trust us!" feels very dirty to me.

Oh, I get that. They do introduce some bloat. Though, at least for me, I have enough resources to manage it without much concern. I wouldn't recommend flatpak's if you want a lean, mean, machine. That's for sure.

I used arch for a long time and only recently switched over to fedora silverblue. One of the things I missed most was the AUR (and pacman), for sure. However, I discovered something called distrobox. It allows me to install an archlinux container and from there I can use the AUR with no problems. It's pretty seamless, too. So, if there is something I can't find something then it's no problem now.

Though, fedora has pretty much everything anyway. Flatpaks are getting damn good.
