You know how writers get paid fuck all for the movies they write? You know how animators are paid criminally low wages for the anime they produce? At the end of the day for most media it’s the companies that get all the money, not the artists. Therefore, fuck them, I am pirating your content not contributing to your profit margins.

Interesting to see how interconnected other VPN services are, whereas Mullvad and Firefox are exclusively related to each other and that’s it.

This is the most Phoronix forums like comment I have seen so far LOL

A legitimate practical use is anonymised online transactions using cryptocurrencies designed for such purposes (like Monero)

I just tried it myself, to get from the homepage to the amd64 installer file download link, it is exactly 7 clicks. This is a flaw in Debian that needs to be resolved, as not everyone has access to internet off the bat due to some wifi chip makers (COUGH realtek COUGH) not having very nice Linux support. A general re-design of the website to modernise it would be a good way for Debian to freshen itself up and attract new installers. Sadly, I am a systems programmer and not a web developer, so I am unable to personally contribute much :(

This is not an Arch issue at all, this is an issue of the dude compiling their own kernel and leaving out a ton of drivers for the minimal experience, default Arch will have plug and play HDMI support.

No, not at all. This stems from them compiling their own kernel for a minimal experience, which no distro which ship for default at all. This issue does not stem from the general linux experience, but the incredibly niche experience of micro-managing your own system.

I am boarding this train ride or die.

Awesome, thanks for the confirmation!

I have used Tumbleweed prior as a daily driver with an Nvidia 1050ti. From memory, you will have to enable a repo, and that’s about it. openSUSE also has YaST which will help significantly with managing this sort of stuff for your install. The gaming experience on openSUSE was pretty much issueless for me.
