!!! I need to try this. Ardour has always been the only real option for me.

Sweet I need to build zrythm again, ah or maybe someone already put it in nixpkgs!!

I’m partial to sudo bash myself 👌

It’s much easier to type sudo su 😅

You mean sudo chmod -R 777 /that/path/I’m/trying/to/share ?

Too late, in too deep with gimp never gonna leave 🥲

How are you currently serving publicly?

Lol what has more of an attack surface: CUPS or a reactos VM?

I guess it’s actually pretty dry in there, more like under the table

I thought he was in a hole not a table

Congratulations 🎉 Nice work figuring it out.

Gotta love the idea that when you uninstall a package all the packages that depend on it must be removed for consistency.

Out of curiosity, what were you looking to gain from the pipewire upgrade?

I enjoy red hat’s paid support articles that end by saying this is untested and may not work but it was added to the knowledge base 10 years ago

Don’t worry Java is alive and well on Android… For now 😹

We can already run arm seamlessly on x86 Linux, why not use Qemu-user + binfmt misc the other way around? I guess FEX must be much faster. Im also not super keen to run binaries that can’t be recompiled anyway so probably not the target audience.

Take that Java, everything is a portable binary now.

😹 that’s great

Hmmm I do need a reason to learn rust… But a cross platform DAW feels like too big of a project for my level of disorganization 😹

Maybe I should try building ardour for android, it would be way easier to rebuild Ardour’s UI for mobile.

ddrescue is probably your best bet

dd is the simplest: dd if=/path/to/disk/device of=/path/to/backup/file but it may fail with a broken device. ddrescue is similar but handles io errors appropriately and can retry bad reads.

That one DAW for electronic music… The logo had a hexagon or something… Caustic maybe?

ChromeOS does this well because it’s android, a walled garden that users aren’t allowed to break. You can buy it at Walmart, and it works well.

Other big “consumer” distro projects (Debian, Ubuntu, fedora, rhel, etc) are similar, especially if you’re installing stable releases on hardware that is supported.

The question for me is what do users want their OS to do? My guess is internet, office, print, scan, photos, games, updates, and get out of the way. Almost all big distros will give you that experience already, as long as you don’t expect to play Windows games or pick a specialized gaming distro.

Users who want to step outside using supported repos are back to googling for a solution when things are broken, and should see themselves as part of the tech-savvy group that need to fend for themselves.

Gotta go count my files again… oh yeah it’s PROJE~14.BAS
