It’s probably some side effect of the beard oil.

Still taking “preorders”, which is basically a spot in line. Only going to be sold in US to start apparently. Which is unfortunate, because it would make a great little farm truck.

I would use KDE Neon before I’d bother trying kubuntu yet again. Manjaro does a reasonable KDE version as well. Maybe Endeavour and Open SUSE too.

Fedora KDE is my distro of choice though.

Oh, I prefer to be strung along and asked to make a bunch of changes before you reject my PR. That makes me feel truly loved. In the ass.

Jesus, you’re trying hard to be a dick, huh. Try harder.

I have to start to learn how to automatically create notes. I’m starting to forget how my systems work together, too. Fortunately when I research something I do it the same way every time so I come up with the same result, then go to implement it and find all the scripts etc that I forgot about that do that job.

I hate the “Microsoft Recall” idea, but damn, I need something like that with an AI to keep it indexed and searchable as it relates to my activities. All self-hosted, of course.

Fedora KDE.

I’m sick and tired about hearing about Zorinn when there’s a dozen excellent Linux distros that aren’t derivative trash that astroturf social media and pass off other Foss projects as their own.

I literally could not reproduce a single one of your bugs.

Kubuntu is utter dogshit as an example of Plasma and has been for years. I’ve installed it and seen it be completely unusable. Try the KDE Fedora spin and see what you get.

The first mistake is using Kubuntu. It’s always been a buggy mess.

I’m actually kind of convinced it’s built to make regular Ubuntu look good.

Ducks.

I’m going to spend thousands on a month-long trip, even being frugal, and they think $18 is my breaking point? That’s a beer.

I don’t see this phenomenon. Maybe people suggest those things to use because frankly, they’re a very fundamental part of the self-hosting landscape, and you’re see it as “you must use these”. Use whatever the hell you want and pay the price for doing it the hard way, by all means. But saying people are gatekeeping isn’t the way I see this community.

If you do a zfs list from the Proxmox server command line, you’ll now see a dataset named something like rpool/vm100-data-disk1 and that the second virtual disk in your VM. Now you operate on the virtualdisk however you like, format it with EXT4 or something (don’t use ZFS). It’s still a ZFS volume and Proxmox will be able to snapshot it, replicate it etc, or you could do it manually on the host. But as far as the VM is concerned, it’s a raw disk that you do normal disk stuff with.

Mint is pretty late to the Wayland party with Cinnamon. It’s probably one of the worst distros to try to use Wayland on.

I think it took me 2 years to get six monitors on two GPUs working consistently under X11. Yes, I’m that fucking stubborn.

Wayland worked right from the start.

I couldn’t sleep at night if I didn’t have my data backed up in 6 different places. I spent way too many years as a sysadmin to deal with 2 backups.

ZFS mirrors on my Proxmox server with multiple nodes replicating to each other. Replications of those datasets to zfs.rent. Proxmox backup server taking hourly snapshots and doing it to multiple drives. Rotating USB drives on that PBS server. Backups of the data for each VM and each docker container stack via rsync. Borg backup. Multiple Nextcloud clients with each having their file syncs held locally, then rsynced to a secondary drive.

I could probably come up with a couple more that I’ve forgotten I have running. I got burned once and it made me mad.
