mpv is worth a shout out as well

That’s the one! Funny store about the name - it’s a recursive condiment.

Let me interject for a moment. What you’ve referred to as “butter” is actually “I can’t believe it’s not/butter”. Have a pleasant day!

To be honest even matrix has too many features for me as a discord alternative. I’ve got my IRC channels that I’m keen on and I hang out on those every day.

Realise I’m probably unusual for being happy with 90s tech though!

I thought the rustc package bootstrapped itself like gcc does?

I don’t think I’ve ever lost more time than I’ve gained in knowledge from the mistakes, if that makes any sense.

Never lost any money with linux.

Nothing could get me to switch off gentoo at this point. It’s so flexible that you can use package managers from other distros (if you’re crazy and like to create problems for yourself). Creating your own packages is very easy with their ebuild system. In terms of the packages they offer the USE flags are an absolute killer feature that let you install only the parts of the program you want. They even have binary versions of larger programs like firefox or rust that you can install if you don’t want to compile them.

Not really helpful if you are on another distro but gentoo has a savedconfig flag for the package that lets you store a permanent header file for the DWM variables in with the package manager config files. It integrates really nicely.

You pretty much need networkmanager for eduroam. If you are a wpa_supplicant enthusiast you need to swallow your pride. Otherwise no issues with using linux for higher education.

Learning Latex for your dissertation will make referencing easier, as an aside.

I think they deliberately mess with the formatting text in exported to “word doc” format files from LibreOffice too.

It’s very good but M$ make every attempt to avoid making it interoperable with Word

There’s no drama like FOSS drama.

Agree with the other comments here saying that not everything in life should be viewed through the prism of politics. Civilised society is comprised of people putting their differences aside to work together on various endeavours.

Ironically this post makes me think you are less of a nerd as it has LLM fingerprints all over it. A real nerd would have compiled their satircal study by hand.

I’m a bona fide alpha male. Imagine Joe Rogan but more buff and with additional BDE. When I talk everyone listens. I was the star of every sports team I’ve been part of. I can lift a motocycle above my head and then ride off into the sunset on it.

Is there not some kind of RMM software you could be using to install the same setup on all of them simultaneously? How about monitoring? Firewalls?

I’ll play the game for a while but if they litter my homedir then they are first on the chopping block when I’m looking to uninstall things and free up space.

I dislike having top-level directories in $HOME that aren’t storing media or documents. Some linux ports of games are awful for littering your homedir or Documents. Just lazy devs. Put it all in ~/.local please folks!

I believe you can install the Arch package manager on gentoo

There is a common denominator
