Why aren’t the Linux devs just using SMB to forward the mouse and keyboard files? Are they stupid?

Why don’t you send me even more replies over the next few days, I’m sure that will be really helpful!

Sure, that was cleared up a couple hours ago when OP clarified as such. Since texture apparently wanted to argue (given his many comments posted long after the clarification), I thought I’d play along for him.

Yep, I’m being serious, Fedora’s decisions don’t affect Arch.

And yet, Fedora changing their default login manager won’t affect Arch.

Quickly in Bazzite, not at all in Cachy since that’s based on Arch.

It’s Gnome. They do actually keep removing stuff that they disable by default, because they don’t even offer a GUI to configure these settings.

Ah, bummer. Looks like they don’t provide a Fedora repo, otherwise it would have been easy to layer onto Silverblue etc. There’s probably still some way, but I get not wanting to go through that trouble.

Out of interest, which client is that?

And that’s why I immediately fell in love with immutable distros. While such problems are rare, they can and do happen. Immutable distros completely prevent them from happening.

Glorp is the spiritual successor to Fleeb, though mostly ran by the people behind Pumbu (the ones who started it, not the ones who ran it into the ground) and Muupi (the ones who ran it into the ground).

It only limits you if you expect things to work exactly the same as with any other distro. If you spend some time reading up on how it expects you to solve different tasks, it doesn’t limit you for 99+% of scenarios.

The shitty news here is if you want a machine you’re doing software dev on you’re going to need to figure out the nvidia driver shit, which is a pain in the ass but if you’re a software developer you should be able to do it.

The dev-focused atomic Fedora variants solve all Nvidia issues for you, there’s no reason why you should trouble yourself with it.

Snaps are bad for two reasons:

1. The backend is proprietary & the client doesn’t support other backends without modifying the source code
2. For some packages, doing apt install installs the Snap instead

There’s no good reason for either. Canonical is simply setting things up so they can squeeze money out of their users by enshittifying over time.

Because by the time I use awk again, I’ve completely forgotten that it supports this stuff, and the discoverability is horrendous.

Though I’d happily fix it if ShellCheck warned against this…

I hope they like it

Yes, it’s Volition.

Though gitea is admittedly also a pretty bad name. Is it “gitti” (like tea), or “git-e-a”?

Oh, it’s actually 0-click (though a couple dozen key presses)

Why?
