Ill have to check and see if thats in the TUI installer too. TY

I’ll get on it as soon as I finish this job

So I guess “blatant” is the type.

That kinda makes sense but I never would have found it on my own.

Debian, sudo, at least when ever I install it without a desktop.

edit: I’m dumb af, it tells you right in the installer, I just never read it

The Debian LXC containers ship without nano, the normal (net/dvd/cd) install have nano.

This is my favorite way to deal with management.

So you want me to disable a safety feature to help speed up production?

I once had a 200" Sony CRT projector. It had a grid of at least 20 trimpots for adjusting the picture on each of the tubes (RGB) and after 45min to an hour of warming up and tweaking it was an unbelievable picture. Then a 300v DC rail shorted to some logic level stuff and it caught fire :(

I leeched when I was on limited bandwidth now I am the sole peer for about a dozen hard to find torrents. Balance in all things.

I run Deb testing, in the spring a change in Pipewire broke sleep/suspend for me, the upgrade came along with 100 other package upgrades. It took FOREVER to roll back just the right packages to the point where everything worked again, 0/10 would not recommend.

cries in apt

It was spelled out more clearly in the comics. They even trained human minds to do tasks that the machines could not/did not want to do.

I’m running it on a dual core 2.5ghz with 1800MB of ram, no complaints!

mc is killer. All the features of a desktop file manager but in your terminal!

36, Canadian, 10/10 would recommend. Winter driving is way more fun with manual, and it can be a lot easier on gas if you’re in the mood.

Metal and ceramic on the bottom, glass and plastic on top, bowls overlap no more than 50%, spoons and forks all curve in the same direction. Run it on express wash with no heat, remove to the drying rack when done.

The only valid argument I see is monoculture. If systemd every does fall out of favour, become broken or compromised in some disastrous way it will be a lot of work getting going again.

The only encrypted file I have is my kdbx.

Dude I even have graphs that show when it ices up and stops working. No one will listen.

This is the way.

23c (73.5f) all year round. We have two nearly hairless cats, they do not like cold weather.

E-Mail/sms/irc covers 99% of my text needs.

Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, Twitter, TikTok. Most people I work with think I’m totally out of touch with reality because I don’t use any of the big social media platforms and then they watch the same 12 ads and 3 videos on 5 different apps.

Oh god, that’s a rabbit hole you might not want to go down. I’m in Canada and I know people who will have 1 or 2 beers a week but most are in the range 2-4 a day. I’m an electrician so things skew towards the 1500 bottles/yr end of the spectrum.

Canada is right behind the USA in this respect. Our politicians are transparently corrupt, our health care is only good when compared to the US and we have an assbackwards vocal right who would vote Trump if only they were given the chance.

Whenever humans aglomerate, non productive humans require handouts to live. If they do not receive then they die. If they don’t want to die, they will steal.

Yeah, we know, politicians.

I am quite preachy about it and am universally met with “but why does it matter?” The future is gonna suck.

I’ve found my people!

Docker is awesome for real production environments but trains home users to just copy/paste/enter random shit from the internet.

I bet you’re the type to follow the docker install instructions*, arent you?

Thank you, I think the Cult of Docker does more harm than good for the selfhosting community in the long run as it encourages copy/paste admins. Manually installing services in LXC gives you all the advantages of Docker plus the full control of a VM or bare metal install.

WTF, am I the only person to have bought W10? Steam on Linux is just good enough now that my next gaming build will be Debian (or some derivative).

If it takes the threat of starving-to-death to get good service out of some one then something is fundamentally wrong.

God damn Adobe and Office 365.

As someone who uses Debian for browsing and gaming, I agree. It is a tool that you pick because you have a goal in mind and I pretty much never recommend it as an intro to Linux for new users. The only reason I continue to use it as a desktop/laptop is for consistency between all my machines so I don’t have to remember how to use 8 different package managers.

There are plenty of friendlier distors out there that have novice users in mind and help them learn the basics. Debian is the distro you choose because you have a specific goal in mind, could be a server, a dev machine, or to build your own distro, but not as ‘my-first-install.’

I prefer the Debian website over most other distro’s modern look. It’s simple, like Debian.

If a user is that far down the technical literacy ladder, they do not need Debian, they need Ubuntu or Mint or one of a dozen other distros that prioritize UX over production.

If it weren’t for VirtualBox I would avoid them all together. It’s just so damned convenient though.

It’s also not obsolete.

Except for my AMD 1800x that was 4 years old when W11 launched and not supported.

But without nofail, it was suddenly worth stopping the boot process.

Welp, that explains a mystery no-boot I had a few years ago.
