wuphysics87@lemmy.mlto Linux@lemmy.ml•What will MS do when Linux becomes a serious threat to their monopoly ?1·19 days agoIf you already have a dedicated following, but the unfortunate truth is people use github for discoverability. People would need to know to look for you if you did the right thing and hosted your project somewhere where you and it won’t be exploited
wuphysics87@lemmy.mlto Linux@lemmy.ml•What will MS do when Linux becomes a serious threat to their monopoly ?3·20 days agoYea, but will anyone else find it?
OP should follow their chosen path and we should commend them for their efforts and support their choices rather than tell them they did it wrong and start over according to our opinions.
So OP should start over? Just offering your unnecessary opinion? (Remember they read this) Go with the compliment and move on
wuphysics87@lemmy.mlto Linux@lemmy.ml•Pop! os-really trying, but constant crash has me frustrated.9·2 months agoNot an answer to your question. Just some perspective. I’ve come to be more patient with FOSS. Perhaps it doesn’t always work how I want, but unlike proprierary options, it belongs to me. Something to think about when something doesn’t go your way.

wuphysics87@lemmy.mlto Linux@lemmy.ml•What's the best distro for a windows user with some linux experience2·3 months agoAre you suggesting distrohopping to a new user? For shame! (Use virtualbox)
My suggestion is you focus more on learning to use the terminal than figuring out which one to use. Switching terminals is like a micro version of distro hopping without the benefits.
I use ollama for llms, but being a terminal tool, you need to be comfortable using the terminal.
To answer your original question, I use alacritty. Minimal bells and whistles. Just a terminal.
wuphysics87@lemmy.mlto Linux@lemmy.ml•Is Hyprland a good WM choice if I can make stacking / floating workflow work?2·3 months agoOverwrite wasn’t the best choice of words. Display in place of is better. There’s a literal option now called “disable hyperchan” If you use that config, you don’t need to do anything else. But, having a dev introduce a feature which supercedes users’ deliberate choices for his, and his cronies amusement was reason enough to leave.

I found the file and wrote a hook to automatically delete it on update reverting to mt background, only to find that there was a condig option to do the same thing
2nd The maintainer is a bigot and I won’t support bigotted projects when there are other (better) options like sway which I know use.
TLDR: Creator violates Wheatons Law. I don’t like that.
I should have phrased that better. I agree copy and pasting commands off of the internet is a terrible idea. Be they from ai or from a forum or wiki. By ‘try’ I meant look into. As in explore that path. To you and I ‘try’ means something different than a new user. I will be more careful in the future
If ai gives you something to try it’s better than nothing. But I was going to suggest another distro if someone else hadn’t. Thanks ai…
A lot of libraries have 3d printers. Maybe that’s a start?
I don’t recommend Linux. I recommend Freedom
Don’t worry about it, I didn’t take it as rude. I hope you didn’t take my comment as rude either
I would caution against Arch. I don’t think it breaks as often as people suggest, but you may run into a problem like steam not loading when you want to play something with your friends. That gaming session is shot unless you can fix it on the fly. After a few years you will, but you need to balance those kinds of growing pains against doing something you want to do in the moment. Don’t expect it to work the way you expect every time.
