Not the guy who first commented, but NixOS is fun because you can have the whole config in a git repo, and can easily reproduce. Main drawback is that Nix as a language is insane and that a lot of packages still aren’t available

Zorin OS because they said it was windows like

Usually AMD is better, since the drivers are fully OpenSource. NVIDIA maintains proprietary drivers, which means the open source ones aren’t as good (yet). Linux mint should have a fairly simple graphical tool to install the proprietary drivers

https://www.protondb.com/ Here for the compatibility list. Platinum stuff is stuff that is literally plug and play, gold is a should be fine. Get something easy to use, worst case, Mint should do the trick. Just install apps through the graphical store (this should include steam) and you should be fine. NVIDIA or AMD for graphics? Mint im pretty sure has an easy tool to install the proprietary NVIDIA drivers at this point

Life is quite absurd and death is the final word, you must always face the curtain with a bow. Forget about your sins, give the audience a grin, enjoy it it’s your last chance anyhow

I’d also keep DNS, DHCP and routing software,detailed manuals about how IPV4 and 6 work, nginx and maybe Wordpress, lemmy, Peertube, and other federated software

Also, tip, pretty sure that in the default web interface there is a toggle to deactivate bot posts. These bots are often just reposting what is on Reddit to try to stuff lemmy with content, but I tend to leave them deactivated. Also, never forget that the best thing after staying in a pit like this, is to touch a bit of grass ;P

Think of federated services (namely lemmy) like a phone carrier. There’s a bunch of them, and you can call numbers on other networks easily, as they speak a common protocol. You (or your carrier) can always block either individual numbers, or entire carries. The thing here is, being a carrier (an instance) of lemmy is somewhat easy to do, and you can always switch carriers based on their moderation policies.

Hope this is a decent explanation.

Yes in the sense that mostly the communists inhabit it. No in the sense that, because it is decentralised, no one can force you do to a particular thing if you host your own instance

Most people are imperfect emotional mirrors. That meaning in a lot of ways they will replicate the emotions they see around them, with some individual twist, or influence (namely, how one feels towards the others he sees). This is why crowds can be so dangerous, so many mirrors can start amplifying emotions, namely panic, which is usually what leads to stampedes

2024 legislative election (portugal). Voted social democrat, since the socialist candidate had shown proof of incompetence while in government

If I’m not mistaken, quick sort is worst case O(n^2), merge sort is what actually achieves O(nlogn), the point is that quicksort is on average more memory (and time?) efficient

Nothing. Sold everything when I heard that warren buffet had sold everything

Sshutle? It essentially makes traffic go through ssh from anywhere to anywhere. If you ssh into your machine, use sshuttle towards your local machine, I think you should be good

To quote just about everyone regarding sometning at some point in their lives: “ew”

Question, are you being sarcastic, or did I actually manage to properly “speak the Englishes”

Not just that, Nix as a language has an insane syntax. Who the hell dreamed function declaration like that

Yes. But becoming more flawed by the day

Not sure. You could always create your own lemmy instance and administer it to your liking

I will give you that
