☂️-

the us has been doing shit like this for decades. trump simply just made it obvious.

that happened to me on nvidia when the apt packages auto updated but not the flatpak ones to match the new driver.

where the fuck are suckers getting all that money from

i wonder how sustainable just constantly rising prices would really be at this point.

tartar

on the bright side, no more wifi on fridges and cars and toasters.

please do! i love when microslop promotes linux

i know someone who works in one. 7 days a week, 12 hours a day for like $1k/mo or a bit less, depending on your function, and they are constantly finding reasons to dock your pay or otherwise fuck you. they will give you pills or injections and refuse to tell you what it even is if you are sick.

you are stuck there for 9 months at a time or more if they decide they want to keep you for a bit longer. passengers are super entitled and it seems to attract the very worst people humanity has to offer when it comes to the people working and running the place.

it was kind of a meme for a while in the 2000s that fusion energy was always right around the corner but never actually came. risc-v feels about like that atm.

scratch that part, i switched it up with arduino being bought off by qualcomm. haven’t been sleeping very well lately.

so one of the reasons distros that update quicker and use newer software are generally considered advanced is because they use brand new less tested software that breaks easier. ie. for enthusiasts looking for all the new shiny features all the time, the best possible performance or easy modularity at the cost of stability.

it’s what i mean when i say you have to accept you need the right tool for the job. newbies who expect and need a stable hands-off experience like you are recommended debian, mint, ubuntu and such for a reason.

don’t worry though, the cool new features and performance will trickle down to you whenever they are ready for wide adoption. and you can be an enthusiast on a boring distro too.

is this the nuclear fusion by 2020 of our generation?

this just completely defeats the purpose of an rpi.

guess their acquisition was really spelling out their demise.

and it can be skipped. for now.

they are probably in the us

you can probably disable the updater through adb.

or any sector for that matter, really

i find that bazzite can be a great beginner distro, as it has some sane quality of life defaults baked in over fedora, but fedora is not bad if you can get used to default dockless gnome for example.

you are arguing from a place of stubbornness. cachy arch and nix are not supposed to be newbie friendly distros. linux doesn’t break easily at all, but only if you accept you need the right tool for that job.

it’s like that youtuber that keeps insisting on using pop os with a beta desktop when he knows its not windows and breaks, and then complains it’s not windows and breaks.

i work with linux and i’ve been updating hundreds of debian, ubuntu and assorted turnkey distros over decades without issue, and you could too.

cachyos is not a system for newbies, or absolute stability. nix isn’t it either.

try fedora, debian, ubuntu, mint or something newbie friendly if you want a newbie friendly experience.
