I’ve installed Bazzite, and I’ll be making that my daily driver once I finish my documentation (and figure out how to get balatro mods to actually load -.-)

What kind of “real world load” are you putting on your trimmer? Mine barely ever gets caught in hair, and when it does, the hair gets cut before it can apply any meaningful amount of force to the trimmer guard.

Yeah, I get that. But also, the root mount point is a valid partition, and it is full, so it makes sense why it shows up that way.

I think a lot of the confusion is letting go to old habits and knowledge that don’t exactly work with the new system. In still going through that a lot myself (and will probably be making my own troubleshooting post when I have time), but it’s always good to experiment and see what you can learn.

Best of luck friend!

I started with Bazzite recently after getting a recommendation to go with a SilverBlue derived distro, and other than trying to figure out my own issues, it’s been pretty smooth.

I do have a weird issue that crops up after reboot where the display environment variable isn’t exported or something. But considering I also had an issue with my steam library not loading that was user error, I’m not entirely sure that isn’t of my own making as well…

It comes full from the first boot, because you’re not supposed to be able to write to it. That’s kinda he point of an immutable distro

You don’t, it’s the immutable root partition. You probably need to find the point it’s trying to write to and link it to a location it can write to.

Note: I’m still a newbie to atomic desktops too.

I mostly agree, but then there are pieces of media like Memento where spoiling it changes how you watch the movie. Because you’re likely going to be looking for how they put the movie together to build up to that reveal at the end.

Yeah, no. I’m not trying to keep track of 15 windows when I can make named groups to actually organize the various things I always end up coming back to

Since they handle redundancy and backups I think it’s fine staying with them (+ great product)

This. I love self hosting services, but anything that I 100% can’t live without isn’t one of them. Because I don’t have the funds for proper redundancy/high availability, and my backup practices at home are… Not ideal. I’ve had a couple brushes with data loss due to gaps in backups, lack of monitoring for impending hardware failures, and had 2 disks suddenly die together in a raid array, all in over a decade of self hosting.

I have cold backups of most of my critical services, but they’re not nearly regular enough for me to trust my passwords to myself.

Yeah, some places are super petty. Hell, the last CEO I had bitched at my manager because I was stoked he offered to get me some equipment that my last previous gig strung me along on.

Man, I’m so glad to be away from that narcissistic asshole

Lol, they asked for the bag back the last handful of places I left.

Didn’t care though, cuz they were falling apart (the bags too).

So now we know how to instantly delist any project on GitHub.

Good to know, thanks! Like I said, I’m going to be diving back into Linux in the near future, so I’ll be looking into the best distro to try.

Just to make things easier on others (or myself of the amd drivers have similar issues), how would one go about holding the driver at a specific version?

Best of luck to you my friend. Like I said, fedora was my go-to for years, and I regularly fought against the Nvidia drivers and kept going back to windows.

I’m running AMD now, so I’m hoping my experience is better than it was when I was using nvidia

Do you remember what you fixed when you fixed it on the window side? Asking because what you’re describing almost sounds like you have a bad driver, which would explain why your Linux side would also have a similar problem, IE locking up completely auddenly, if it had the same bad driver and interacted with the hardware the same way causing a similar crash.

Honestly, if it’s fixable in the windows it’s definitely fixable Linux. It just might take a little bit more extra work to figure it out.

Any reason you went with fedora? I’ve been partial to fedora for a decade, but last I knew it wasn’t recommended for a daily driver given the upstream fuckery from redhat.

Asking cuz I’m about two weeks from kicking win10 in the dick and moving to alma or something.

And depending on your audience or how often you (don’t) go back and review it, it can help to comment the things that are self explanatory.

I write a lot of scripts for my team and have to make them “maintainable” by the people in my department (who are as familiar with the concept, as your buddy that calls the gym the James), so I will regularly over comment so that any ape can come along and hopefully know what the script does.

why even work from home.
