Missed opportunity for jazz.

I run Bazzite and Garuda (with the cachyos kernel). Only the Garuda box is Nvidia and has been great since kde+Wayland+Nvidia stabilized a year or so ago.
I think any of them (including cachyos) is a good choice. Optimization is diminishing returns, so I’d be looking for a distro with the default settings and tools I like as a much higher priority.
For example, I like Garuda’s btrfs with automatic checkpoints on upgrade so I can just send a
garuda update(which ispacman Syuwith bells and whistles) and almost ignore the output even when I get lazy and don’t update for a month. Don’t take this as a recommendation to ignore updates on an arch-based distro. There will eventually be consequences.With bazzite, updates really are in the same class because of the immutable base. But I’m also deep into containers and have no issue with the ergonomics of layering and management, which are improving, but definitely not very newbie friendly.
Anyway, give them test drives. You’d be surprised how much changing a package manager can impact your ability to do things for a while if you aren’t familiar.

General Discussion@lemmy.world•Reframing Universal Basic Income as Automation Compensation
2·20 days agoCompanies lay people off when the stock doesn’t grow the right way, even when they’re highly profitable.
The Jack Welch playbook has fucked the concept of business success so hard we can’t even recognize what a huge pile of shit it has become. It needs a reset.

General Discussion@lemmy.world•Reframing Universal Basic Income as Automation Compensation
5·20 days agoJust from the top of my head:
- Permanent tax on corporations that layoff people until they rehire to the same level.
- An exise tax on AI use by businesses.
Both of these would of course get me labeled an antichrist by Peter Thiel. And since AI is propping up the world economy right now, has 0 chance of happening.

TRS-80 then IBM PCjr here. Both hand-me-downs though.
Mom wouldn’t let me on the 386 until I could touch-type and write a program in BASIC. She was a Cobol and IBM RPG programmer.

No other contenders that I can remember.
I still regret not getting a Z series. My S series from 2008 is still cooking (literally) the basement.
Oh, and I’ve found SELinux easier to handle with podman, but that might be just more experience now.
Nothing really critical.
Differences from where I’m at
- docker doesn’t have native systemd integration (“quadlets”)
- docker needs a daemon running
- podman has pods (like kubernetes) which are great for isolation of complex services
- you can run podman containers with kubernetes yaml

Omg thank you for the money!

Open Source@lemmy.ml•Employment contract that allows for open source projects, advice needed
1·1 month agoIt will depend on where you live.
Many US states have laws that carve out exceptions for work done on your own time and equipment. If the contact doesn’t call these out as exceptions somewhere, it’s a lazy contact.
Layers, intentional or not.

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•God did not intend for us to fold fitted sheets, and if you can it's witchcraft.
14·1 month agoIt’s really not bad with full elastic bands. Make a rough square using the point of the corners as one corner and the only non-elastic fold as the opposite. Just flop the sloppy elastic to the inside. I then fold in thirds and again in thirds. Just fold the weird parts to the inside each time.
My wife still thinks it’s magic after 20 years.
I see. Yeah, that compose file is gross unless you’re running this on a dedicated vps, and even then…
I haven’t run snikket before, but it looks straightforward to me. Maybe the documentation has improved?

Don’t forget multicast (live streaming)!




For sure.
I am excited to see more arm-based Linux devices for consumers. And the Snapdragon-based VR is exciting on that front.
It definitely won’t change anything for tomorrow or next year, but it does make me hopeful that better support is in the relatively near future.
