Glad to hear it!

I replaced a Realtek one because it constantly dropped connections. Luckily, this was one of the type of fixes that actually turned out to be easier than it looked.

I used Solus for years, it was actually my first long time Linux distro, and I have fond memories from that time and deep appreciation of the project. Note that I say used, because I have moved on (to EndeavourOS and later NixOS).

The reason why I moved on is the same as why I would recommend against Solus: the project have lost a lot of its core contributors. At the time I left there were no package updates for quite some time (used to be weekly).

I am not quite sure Solus really got a future. There are talks about converging it with AerynOS, former SerpentOS, which is innovative but still experimental software built by the original team, i.e. those that left Solus in the first place. Though they are really proficient in making the software, I do not think they have the same skillset for securing longevity through contributions.

In the end you should not care too much what people think. You will get the popular options for the intersection of Lemmy and Linux users, but popular is not always good nor what is right for you. Just try stuff and be ready to move a little through rigorous backups, you do have backups?

Mac has a decent terminal (even defaults to zsh IIRC), homebrew for package needs, no obnoxious ads in the desktop UI, great (although pricey) hardware. I am an avid Linux user forced to use Windows at work. I would much rather use a Mac.

Why hate? It allows for easy functional programming with vectorized operations that bind to C for efficiency.

Not on NixOS!

Phoronix and Gamingonlinux are awesome!

Setup Mint for grandma, and had to do it again recently as she had bought a new computer and found Windows annoying and unintuitive.

R and the tidyverse? It can even generate SQL for you.

Slap it into a VM. Name it jail. Call it Windows with bars.

It is related to nystagmus. I thought I only did it on purpose, but when I am tired I also sometimes do it involuntarily.

From the link:

A slightly different form of nystagmus may be produced voluntarily by some (8% of) people. Some can sustain it for up to 35 seconds, but most average around 5 seconds.[19][20][21]

Love this as well. There is no shame in being honest that you want something non-smokey, sweet and delicious. Islay scotch for example is IMO for people who are, after years of smoking like chimneys, without tastebuds.

I get bit by a werewolf and sentenced for execution due to being a danger to society. For some reason they choose death by drowning and it turns out I cannot drown because I am a vampire. I then actually do not die because I am an undead.

I use NixOS so I obviously have not.

Vehicle drivers giving me lung cancer while enjoying a road my tax money paid for (instead of other useful infrastructure such as railways) is unfair.

Get the Ashes of Erebus mod for Civilization IV instead!

I do not need a medal to call someone out for spreading misinformation. Sure you can have an opinion on mathematics without being a mathematician. However, you are undereducated and make false statments about the subject, while being ignorant and arrogant to those that correct you. That makes you a dick and me not hesitate to dunk on you.

More boosters, kiddo!

Damn, you really do suck more as a person than you do at math.

Weird to flex when you have nothing to show off. Let me show you how you do it, buddy: I am a mathematician. Infinity, density and cardinality of sets are not mysterious to me because I read a lot of books. If you read a few then you might discover your very cool comment above was actually not so cool and true.
