I haven’t used Windows in like 20 years but it’s funny they still haven’t gotten around to fixing percentages. I remember stuff like this from the Windows XP days.
Obligatory XKCD: https://xkcd.com/612/
Same. Except I still have to keep that garbage dump OS on my work laptop. I would not be surprised to find rooms filled with bonobo chimps, hammering away at keyboards inside their offices, “working on updates”.
Congrats, now they own your computer and you are a fucking guest. :)
That is the interface for LSW AKa. Windows for docker
“Ha! I don’t see Linux giving 120%!”
Oh! So is that what bloatware is?
I got out that fucking racket after years of hibernating my computer to stop updates.
currently distro hopping, moving from ubuntu MATE + studio to bazzite, with a route through vanilla debian mountains and maybe arriving at pika os
Many people find Debian to be a “boring” OS. After years of distrohopping some come to the conclusion that a boring OS is exactly what they want.
I ended up on Kubuntu because it’s just boring enough to meet my needs. Hope you find one that suits you too. :)
For a boring stop, I ended up on OpenSUSE Tumbleweed.
It’s not too boring, and at the same time, once you set it up, it just works and does what you ask it to.
It’s also very drama-free, not taking radical and controversial steps and not breaking someone’s workflow.
In case something got broken anyways, rollback functionality is set up nicely out of the box on btrfs systems, and snapshots are automatically taken before any updates.
This rollback functionality, along with extensive automated testing of all packages in the official repos, also makes it pretty much the only stress-free rolling release experience.
I recently setup Mint with btrfs Timeshift, and grub-btrfs to make it more like OpenSUSE. It’s more work to do that with Mint, but I’ve tried customizing other distros to make them more like Mint and have come to the conclusion I just like Mint.
For all I remember, Timeshift only supports /home snapshots, which won’t help to revert the system. Could be wrong though.
I’m happy you’re happy about your distro, though!
I have @home and @ subvolumes, with Timeshift taking automated weekly snapshots of @ with all of the system directories, but don’t I bother with @home since that gets backed up in other ways.
Hell yeah non-Euclidean downloads are the best
🤣🤣 just a microsoft thing
Time for Navidson and some cameras to document it!
Mark Z. Danielewski for the win. House of Leaves is superb; 50 Year Sword is interesting, but doesn’t quite scratch the itch. I see he’s got something new out this year as well, will need to check it out.
I’ve been using that excuse for years.
