Sampling yes, remixing no. Remixes require permission, in sampling you could ask permission but tbh the OG artist probably stole the sample too.

I was under the impression cloudflare was big enough to tell governments to fuck off, and I mistaken?

I missed that when reading the repo, thank you for the reply.

I’ll look into the source for that file in my distro and bark up that tree instead. 🙏

Not a fan of the racial slur for people of east asian descent in the default 4 letter dictionary, should probably edit that 😬

Here’s to assuming you pulled a random dictionary file from the internet 🥂

I wish Fedora worked for me, something about it just doesn’t run right on my lappy and I like to have the same distro on all my machines so it’s a nogo across the board for me.

I like Fedora, it’s nice, it just absolutely won’t play nice with my macbook and I’m not gonna get a new laptop just for better Fedora support when this 14 year old hunk’o’junk still works perfectly with mint.

Rolling release/bleeding edge means security updates roll out fast.

I’ve got a blank macbook air at home waiting for a project.

I’ve never undergone a project like this without cheating by using bedrock linux as an intermediary then “Unbedrocking” my install (officially impossible, unofficially insane) with another PM as my default to convert from debian to arch years ago.

This is gonna be fun, or hellish, idk I’ll find out.

My game changer was circa 2014 when I broke something and got dropped to a basic shell and for the first time instead of panicking and immediately reinstalling I thought for a moment about what I had just done to break it, and undid the change manually. Wouldn’t you know it booted right up like normal.

The lesson here: if it broke, you probably broke it, and if you know how you broke it, you know how to fix it.

Hard agree on futo keyboard. The switch is a bit rough until it learns how you type but after it’s had a chance to learn it’s GOOD shit

Just for the record, Immich is made by futo, an American organization.

You can self host it on your own hardware for free to keep your files being on American servers, but it IS an American product.

This isn’t to shit on futo or immich btw, immich is amazing software and futo is a great org headed by Louis Rossman, the spearhead of the American side of the right to repair movement.

Edit for clarity: I mention this because of the EU flag in the image, not because this specific post is calling it that away from American products.

I use mint on my daily-driver/gaming-rig/mediaserver. I’ve been a Linux user for 20 years, eventually you just want a normal distro with sane defaults. Mint is wonderful.

Stevchard Jollman is making me really uncomfortable.

It’s because men, as you are demonstrating perfectly, are really good at being toxic without realizing it. Many women avoid male content crestirs for this reason.

You’re missing the point:

It isn’t supposed to be ready, of course you’d rather have something ready. Ladybird is not even available yet unless you’re building from source to test the pre alpha progress

Jellyfin server!!

You’ll eventually want more storage so LVM is the way to go for making your “drive” easily extendable.

I use my (very similar, just AMD and with a dGPU) for my Jellyfin server and to selfhost some AI models for experimentation, and I’m working on rolling out matrix synapse because selfhosting

Alpha release is expected in 2026, it isn’t trying to be ready yet, and I love that.

“Overdoing it” doesn’t exist when you understand what it can accomplish. Bedrock Linux for example is based on symlink abuse from what I understand

Like 3 weeks ago on my (testing) server I accidentally DD’d a Linux ISO to the first drive in my storage array (I had some kind of jank manual “LVM” bullshit I set up with odd mountpoints to act as a NAS, do not recommend), no Timeshift, no Btrfs snapshot. It gave me the kick in the pants I needed to stop trying to use a macbook air with 6 external hard drives as a server though. Also gave me the kick in the pants I needed to stop using volatile naming conventions in my fstab.

I never liked debian or it’s derivatives, but since moving to Selfhosting most of my services and needing sane defaults on my server (I’m a noob with server stuff) I’ve circled back to LMDE after 20 years of using primarily bleeding edge and DIY distros.

I like it, it’s nice that it’s set and forget and doesn’t need constant attention like my bleeding edge stuff always did.
