first. Also that information would've been useful when I was setting up hyprland. I want to help out the Gentoo wiki at some point butim kinda busy with other things. It would be really cool and convenient if someone made a video on it 👀

Thats not a wayland compositor, you know Xorg quite literally has a end of life date on it right?

think I used dwl a while back, the wayland port

Thoughts on Nix/Guix? Been hearing over time that their solution to immutable distros is the most ideal, but also the demanded user experience is closer to Arch or Gentoo than Debian or OpenSUSE. And the point about dated packages holds when for example when LXQT is a pinch wonky in Debian with the combination of limited support + general maintenance of packages.

Given that SSDs have limited lifespan and are meant to be replaceable I still don't understand why someone would solder it down. Let's say you get a new PC then you can just take the old drive and still use it. If it dies well then you throw it away. With soldered SSD you cannor repurpose it and if it dies then basically your motherboard is useless unless you can connect other storage which most of the time you can but I'd still not be comfortable keeping a dead SSD permanently connected because it's soldered.

Lol, if you can't get a game to run on lutris, that's on you. My five-year-old can do it.

* laughs in zswap and samsung * I remember some old Compaq systems put the BIOS on the hard drive, so they could have a giant BIOS image that gave you a cool GUI with windows and stuff, long before that was commonplace... but that drive was removable and replaceable and spinning rust that was gonna last for ever, unless you dropped it, and then it was going to hurt your foot and *then* last for ever. And there was a backup/update of the BIOS image on a CD-ROM, if your PC had one of those high-tech things. I un-block youtube comments to feed the algorithm here even though I'm pretty sure waffles gives the least amount of fucks about the algorithm's opinion. Let's see if I can say the F word.

I'll solder your storage

Kioxia is not a "bottom of the barrel" manufacturer. They're known for their enterprise grade drives. Yeah, the company started out from OCZ/Toshiba, but they're not the same anymore. I agree with the rest, and am getting tired of constantly reminding and being dismissed by Apple fanboys. I have an affected device too, but it's still alive, and I avoid swap trashing with it anyway.

Agreed completely. I find it laughable when they go on how "Linux Phones" aren't there so they just can't see using. Like I went raw on Linux back in the 90s when it first came out and LiLo wasn't even a pipe dream (forget about grub). You can find some work around for the Linux Phone. The Asahi install on m-series is nothing to sneeze at though.

I wish all my plugins worked on Linux I would just use it instead of MacOs. I only us Mac for my DAW.

i mean i get ur point, but that mac mini is pretty insane for $599 if you put a piece of meat in front of a dog, it will eat it 🤷‍♂ (i can't think of this analogy for sheep)

Déjà vu

I see Matrix I see Soulseek I see QBit I Vencord.... Your truly cultured <3

Apple's shit sucks.

btw, are you transitioning? you sound a little sus...

The new mac mini m4 is still slower than what i have and costs twice as much. It might beat the latest intel nuc in some situations, still if you want to do game development your stuck with what apple gives you. It's fine if you do UE5 or Unity3d but otherwise the Apple metal api wont always be made available which it's only up to apple if it is. I haven't in 20 years gotten a lInux system to become a practical desktop beyond running ruby apps. I had run Ubuntu for a year back in the day and I decided to upgrade the system which it went terrible wrong and switched back to windows and relearning things takes too much time so going back and forth wasn't worth for me. If someone paid me to develop on Linux or Apple I would have no problems whatsoever.

I just bought a refurbished M1 Mac Mini to run Asahi

You said "you know" 30 times in this video. But yea, it's mostly a consumerist mindset thing - they don't actually need it, they want it and have means to get it so they do. Using a Mac is basically a middle ground fallacy because they assume it's better than Windows (bc it's UNIX?), but they're basically the same. In many respects, Macs are even more closed down than Windows PCs are. Even if you try your best, you're still forced to run close-sourced GPU firmware, your BIOS is also likely close-sourced, but even from a practical perspective, you'd have to use Peertube for your videos, force people you know to use Matrix or something similar, etc. Most people won't feel like creating an account just for you (tried it :) ), so you'll just be electronically isolated from everyone you know and all that's happening in their lives (on Instagram/Facebook). A purist perspective doesn't work unless you're a friendless hermit with 40 year old hardware who spends all their free time writing code in vim/emacs.

I agree with you, if you're going to be a Linux youtuber, you need not just talk the talk but you need walk the walk. I personally don't care if they use a proprietary video editor Davinci or Lightworks or even Addobe Premiere on WINE if you can get it running as long as you're using Linux. If you're a Linux youtuber and you're not using Linux , what are you even doing?

3:51 I hear ya! But I don't think you should beat yourself up over using things like discord (so many people use it over irc). I think it's becoming harder to be a content creator with only free software because of the hardware. Linux users should make good use of their computers for as long as possible rather than rushing off to get the latest and greatest.

Six consoles, 10 computers, bunch of fuckin wires.

Waffles on the outside of the filter bubble looking in.

Run0 is better

RUclips comments is my new note taking app

Opps I was snuggling behind the goldshire inn while you were making this video

Dude youtube is just recommending anything thats interesting these days huh

Haha "hardened"

RSA is vulnerable against quantum computer attacks, but there is some newer stuff that isn't. Are they adding quantum-safety to FIPS?

alright... i'm unsubbing again. the bio spluttering noise you decided to include at the start of a recent one had me skipping. now putting out stuff that seems to be pro-proprietary, against user freedom, i'm out.

I'd say, put WinAmp head to head with Audacious and see which one puts less of a load on the thread. I'd probably bet money WinAmp would win this competition, thanks to the proprietary code portions. This is why WinAmp ever became popular to begin with, because back then everyone's computers were brutally slow and mp3 players had to be heavily optimized. These days, nobody cares about overhead... everyone's using high level languages for everything, not much platform-specific code, and I swear if ChatGPT keeps telling people to throw exceptions in every function you write it's going to get worse.

I used to have a problem with Chromium because of Google hate, but I don't really care any more. Like there's this perception that Mozilla is somehow preventing Google from taking over the internet, but Mozilla gets like 80% of their revenue from Google. Also Brave is also the only true cross-platform browser IMO, because Firefox is gimped on iOS without their add-ons platform. Brave still has Brave Shields built-in.

Since it copped a mention: Just gonna point out that brave search is the only uncensored search engine we have left. When the war in Ukraine escalated, every other search engine agreed to filter out stuff that someone else didn't want us to see. It's a pretty decent search engine too. Go Brave.

I can only use firefox because I need userchrome. There's no competition, no alternative. If they remove it, they remove me from the web, which to a disabled person in the modern day, means death. Simple as that.

Thoughts on the Zen browser?

hi riffraff 😂 have fun at the conference

Isolation, I have shit I run in external box that streams to my main device this lets me screenshot, record issues and document events happening on the box without changing or compromising my main linux production machine. Also run multiple VM for similar isolated testing.

i'm big on slackware, but... anyway, lilo is the bootloader installed by default in setup, it's great underneath the ui, supports everything grub does, it's just like trying to hit rocks together till they make big rocks when it comes to using it. i near cried while trying to find how to do suspend to disk with it, kde/plasma cheerfully suspended and shut down, the memory went to /null instead of the boot image, kde's fault there really, should have said it's not set up properly.

he gave like 0 reasons lol

Color me weird. I use my "production computer" which people claim is exotic. But it's quite literally a standard PC with really long ass cables.

age restricted 💀

When are you going to have me as a guest star

What's up gaymers

Ever since broadcom bought VMware its been so fucking shit, fuck broadcom

I run a windows 11 vm in parallels, runs pretty well

Here’s my two cents… I think for most Linux nerds keeping their work computer separate from their Linux machine is already easy. Win-Linux users can just keep dual-booting. Also Linux nerds usually have more than one computer anyway. Personally if my job required me to use Windows at home I’d just buy a cheap used laptop and install Windows 10 on it. People who use the excuse of “My work requires Windows so I have to use only Windows at home too” will never invest their time into learning Linux anyway. But that’s their choice and I don’t judge them negatively for that either.

This. The job is supposed to need *YOU*, NOT the other way around. Don't get owned by your employer, my young friends. They don't pay you enough to buy your whole life.

Use gentoo for a year without going insane
