Shareni@programming.devto Linux@lemmy.ml•Which program is the one that surprised you most that it is available on Linux?13·10 days agoWhich program is the one that surprised you most that it is available on Linux?
Bash.
I find that the least surprising, but ok…
Shareni@programming.devto Linux@lemmy.ml•Is it safe to upgrade to paid version of a distro if I'm dual booting?1·26 days agoIt’s a paid product, but for personal use you’re only paying for the support or for the number of licenses. The most corporate of all distros offers full functionality for free unlike what op is asking for.

I think you know its not just a matter of “clicking a setting in a gui once”
I know it is that simple because I’ve done it while running MX on my devices… You can even switch between the two at boot freely.
Why would you choose a non systemd based distro only to just switch it over to systemd? Why over complicate thinga for a new user who is clearly just starting out? Just use normal debian!
It comes with tools that make system management a lot easier for beginners. I think that’s more than a fair trade for having to click a single setting in a gui.
You obviously haven’t used MX, and I have no clue where you’re pulling your opinions out of from. Give it a try instead of continuing to spew nonsense.
So, clicking a setting in a gui once is such a big deal that MX is a bad choice? Next level…
because its going to differ from most other debian distros
How? It’s just Debian with extra tools and sysvinit besides systemd.
then firgure out the differences between sysvinit and systemd
Or just set systemd as a default

Shareni@programming.devto Linux@lemmy.ml•How much of a pain is it to install Nvidia GPU drivers, really?4·1 month agoDepends on the distro. For most of the popular ones, it’s as difficult as clicking a shortcut.
Shareni@programming.devto Linux@lemmy.ml•Error when trying to boot Lite on old lenovo laptop11·2 months agoI’m still a noob when it comes to linux, so I’m stuck with this error message. Can anyone help me with this?
Stuck? You didn’t even paste the error in a search engine or you would have found the solution in less time than it took you write this sentence.
Shareni@programming.devto Open Source@lemmy.ml•Thunderbird Launches Open Source Services to Rival Gmail and Office3658·2 months agoInb4 Mozilla dies because the lead of the AI development division is the ex-ceo who followed up massive layoffs with doubling her multi-milion salary every few years.
Or, you know, a marketing company that develops a browser maybe bought an ad
Instead of thinking up new ways for them to make money, maybe think why they’ve got money issues.
Maybe it’s got something to do with the different CEOs doubling their multi-milion salaries every few years.
Or maybe their numerous idiotic acquisitions like the pocket.
Or maybe they’re super strapped for cash because they moved their fuckhead of a CEO to AI development.
I love FF, but fuck Mozilla and everything it represents.
Also, fun stats from the moz corp wiki:
- Revenue in 2023: $653 million
- Software development expenses in 2023: $260 million
- Total expenses in 2023: $496 million
Try googling something like “how to make a VPN server”
Well, I guess I’m off to read the fkin wiki now.
You can always install an arch derivative like endeavour instead and click through the wizard
Multiple accounts, offline backup, better UI, don’t need to log in, etc.
Shareni@programming.devto Linux@lemmy.ml•[UPDATE][SOLVED] What distro would you associate with the tarot card Lucifer/Death?2·3 months agoOr it’s just a distro that allows you to have a list of packages, configs (when it’s not significantly simpler an clearer to just stow), and rollbacks for both. Depends on you.
I believe it’s got a death and purgatory feel to it if you don’t know some coding, so it should go nicely with the card.
No missing/outdated/renamed dependencies while building it?
Did I ask for a command? Give that a try in Debian 10…
Ok, show me how you compile Emacs 29/30 on a fresh Debian 10 install in a few minutes…
It’s not when the post is literally answered in less than a minute with the bare minimum of effort…
