What is your realistic suggestion on how they should react? If it involves them dying, or losing their jobs and healthcare? Would you be willing to risk those as an individual?

You call them cowards, but don’t give any meaningful suggestions on what they could realistically do.

What is your alternative non-folder solution?

I’ve been using Tumbleweed for almost a year now, and have had a great experience! Zypper is fine; cnf is a helpful utility that things like Debian / Fedora could certainly use (I know they have ways of searching too, but cnf is so simple).

OPI has everything I’ve needed for 3rd party apps, so no complaints there.

When I first installed Tumbleweed it was on an HP Elitebook, which gave me some grief with audio before I figured out a workaround, but after installing it on an X1 Carbon I can’t imagine using anything else for the foreseeable future. (It’s still installed on the Elitebook, I just never power it on any longer).

All this to say, your experience hasn’t been great for you but for me it’s been fantastic. I run Debian on the self-hosted servers I run, but on my main machine Tumbleweed has been fantastic for me. I don’t even use or like YaST :D

I find your comment is a bit off-putting as well - how would you respond if I said ‘NEVER USE ARCH’? My take is - tell people about your experiences, and let them decide for themselves. Why are you still using Tumbleweed if you’re ‘so against it’?

I can confirm it’s not working - I received the same message @human did.

gfx.webrender.compositor.force-enabled is not mentioned in the article at all - while they don’t mention the specific setting annoyingly, they do mention ‘layer compositor’ so it should be gfx.webrender.layer-compositor.

It would help saying what province you’re in since selection will vary wildly.

If you can, check out Ungava gin. It’s a good price and made in Quebec.

What do Canadians have to do with European tech sovereignty? Why are you trying to hijack this thread?

And for Canadians, what realistic alternatives are you suggesting for everything you’ve listed?

If you want to be taken seriously, start by proposing an actionable plan.

Fedora works with secure boot, it shouldn’t need to be disabled.

Do you have more than 1 disk in the computer? Either way, check bios for a disk setting called Intel RST. If you see that, change it to AHCI, save and reboot.

Routers sometimes have security issues that need to be patched. You should keep an eye out for bulletins and make sure your endpoints have host-based security where they can (antivirus and firewalls).

This is a big fuck you from netgear though -why would you purchase another netgear router when they could just decide not to support the next model and force you to upgrade again for more money?

With PowerShell on Linux you’d never run dnf starting with Invoke-Expression. It’s completely unnecessary.

This feels like you either legitimately don’t know how it works so are assuming, or are making it more complicated on purpose to make bash look ‘better’.

I’m not saying PowerShell should be used on Linux over bash, but your example is not a good one.

Is that a giant sticker on the engine?

Did you forget your ‘btw’?

Why would these be good options in Canada?

Only the first Cube is worth watching, but it’s very good!

That’s a bad take, there will always be people who will say we can never afford it. The real question should be ‘can we afford not to’ as people live and die in miserable conditions.

This isn’t the Raspberry Pi Imager - it’s a tool to build custom images. From the GitHub: A tool to generate highly customised software images for Raspberry Pi devices.

Have you tried the Raspberry Pi Image Generator?

Congrats on the journey! This is something I’ve been enjoying lately, but it sounds like it might be too sweet. I’m still trying to find the balance that works for me.

Someone who doesn’t use the distro is saying a tool ‘is a must’ when I do use the distro and have never needed it. You do you, but the point of my original comment was that it’s a valid distro for Europeans wanting a non-US option. Doesn’t mean you need to like it or use, but others might.
