EXTERMINATE?
like why does every font, except ubuntu, have these ugly af corners?
Not a font guy, but isn’t it just mimicking how humans use strokes to write?
It looks nicer, and it’s easier to read for me tbh.
Did anyone else read it as “vi bing” at first?
I initially tried guix -> switched to nix with home-manager because it’s got a lot better repos -> installed all user packages through nix on Debian -> nixos
Before nixos I used flatpaks for some packages because nixgl seems abandoned.
Why are you even running arch at that point, for the DE updates?
Human communication 101: sometimes humans ask a question without expecting an answer, it’s called a rhetorical question
Most mainstream OSes have GUI for anything you’d need to do as a novice.
And how is Linux any different?
I’ve literally had a non-technical person who used Linux for less than a week fix an issue through the xfce gui while I was googling a solution.
You just need to choose a correct distro and DE for the job.
More like a restaurant that has Korean BBQ / hot pot on the menu. Most meals are completely prepared, but for some you need to do a small part yourself.
I get that for sure, but you can still use it only for specific tasks like org-mode LaTeX. It was literally made by some astronomer/astrophysicist to make writing LaTeX easier.
Come to the evil side, we have org-mode
vim user
LaTeX user
When you go to the wrong side
I thought emacs was all about ctrl + ?.
It is, but you have gui features
I use Emacs and neovim. Each is better in different scenarios.
Vim and emacs usually run in the terminal and require keyboard commands to complete actions.
It is most certainly not usual to run Emacs in the terminal.
although of course it’s possible to use keyboard commands.
And you can use Emacs with a mouse.
I mean, it’s an IBM ThinkPad, it is slow. Linux just makes it usable.
Should be pointing at the monitor. Xkill only stops showing the process, it doesn’t kill it.
Depends what your goals are.
I meant it in a philosophical sense.
Let’s say the gist of Debian is stability. How can you understand it? If you install now and use it for a week, you’ll just see packages that are 2 years out of date, and call it crap without going into the reasoning behind it, or finding your solutions to outdated packages. If you install it after a new release and use it for a week, you’ll think it’s fedora with apt, and call it a day.
What is the gist of a distro?
Lisps makes more sense to me though
