his point made sense. tubeless is “good enough” that there isn’t a demand nor market for airless 🤷‍♂️

ABAB

I’m just glad slurpee machines run on Linux and not Windows CE. 😌

been using Artix and Arch for two years, for work and play, no issues

I think bleeding edge linux is probably more stable than windows

hmm…if Firefox dies, can LibreWolf continue? 🤔

yeah, something is seriously wrong with anti cheat software that requires kernel level access

Inaccurate, cuz they’re not jerking each other off

That’s awesome! And yeah, Linux Mint was a great choice. I assume you will be asked to do maintenance on these computers, and there should generally be less maintenance involved with Mint than other distros. And since it’s a programming school, linux would be way better than windows. 👍

that’s a good point. I’ve only used caddy for handling certs for all the docker containers on my server. for local uses, you generally don’t need certs, although there are some apps that communicate with an offsite db that requires a secure connection.

Thanks, that sounds like a good setup. Keep everything local, and then rsync or backup certain more important files to cloud backup.

I am in the same general region as backblaze. My vps is in a city that’s 6 hours drive away from my backblaze region’s server.

I looked into that, and decided against it cuz I like having a vps where I can also do other stuff with, like my own self hosted vpn. Small stuff.

🤣

I do like Mint, but now I’m thinking Bazzite might be better for a beginner or average user because all those configurations and default apps/packages meant to make gaming easier also trickles down to having things “just work” for a casual average PC user. 🤔

Open source and proprietary software development have very different goals. Open source is generally about making software that’s useful. Proprietary software’s goal is to make money by any means necessary. Viewing it from that angle, open source devs and the community are more motivated to keep an eye out for backdoors. While proprietary software, they won’t give a fuck until something affects their bottom line. Just because of that, I feel safer using open source software in general.

Like bruh, its a problem when ur god always has an excuse.

Yup, cuz corporate greed. Shareholders keep pressuring companies to increase profits EVERY QUARTER.

Yup, I like using a combo of ungoogled chromium and librewolf depending on which works better for certain websites or web apps . To me, Linux is about using the right tool for the job.
