Ubuntu 24.04 LTS is so buggy you can't install the OS [video]
  • Endeavor's problem is a Calamares problem in specific.

    Pro tip: use an external partition editor before the install. For endeavor, this used to be gparted, but is now partitionmanager. (It even comes with the ISO!)

    Hacking into Kernel Anti-Cheats: How cheaters bypass Faceit, ESEA and Vanguard anti-cheats
  • What I meant is if you can ALWAYS tell where the enemy is behind a wall (to start shooting in that direction), and you're sniping (footsteps are too far to be heard), there's some fishy business going on.

  • Yes. Program REAL anti-cheat, which is done ON THE FUCKING SERVER. If the player shoots as if they know where the enemy is behind the wall, then BAN them.

    Fedora, Arch, or EndeavourOS?
  • Fedora requires less maintenance which is important in a university scenario. But then you have those Exam Safe Browsers which don't run on wine anyway.

    If you're going to miss AUR-levels of package count, my advice is to grab openSUSE (preferably non-Leap), get familiar with zypper and yast, then add the Packman repo. Combined with the OBS (basically the openSUSE version of the AUR), you'll have pretty high package availability.

    openSUSE also requires less maintenance than Arch.

    But generally, I recommend EndeavourOS, just add the chaotic-aur so you don't spend hours compiling, and have fun!

    (Constructively) What is your least favorite distro & why?
  • I agree with you.

    I don't hate Manjaro's developers, but they simply do not know what they are doing. They over promise and under deliver.

  • And Meta just disconnected FB and Instagram from each other citing the DMA. Meta will stop at nothing to trap users in their platforms.

  • They'll enable it for everyone soon. Meta will force the Fediverse its way, for $$$. Why else do you think they want to be in the Fediverse so badly?

    Mark my words.
