Had a (fairly old at the point) family computer's hard drive break when I was in high school, we didn't have the restore medium and when a new one was bought, I shoved Xubuntu 8.04 on the old one as an excuse to try out Linux. Then, several Ubuntu version upgrades later that all failed spectacularly (apt failing halfway through or drivers being broken enough to render it unbootable) I moved to Arch Linux solely to avoid those with a rolling release distribution and haven't looked back since on my own machines, although I don't recommend it to less technical family members and friends. Stuck with XFCE as well, mostly because I have to use GNOME 3 for work and I find it utterly miserable at all times.

Not sure what's up with the /dev/mapper/raid0lv0encrypted entry in blkid output though. Is it already set up?

Thanks for the replies!hifi posted:The first field in the crypttab entry is just what the device gets called when it get unencrypted (paraphrasing from the man page for crypttab). I think this may have been because I had already run cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/raid0vg0/raid0lv0 raid0lv0encrypted at that point? Storm One posted:/dev/mapper/raid0lv0encrypted is the unecrypted LUKS volume containing the ext4 filesystem Thanks for the clarification and the tip about lsblk -fp that's handy to know, I think it makes sense now.

I spend most of my computing time in Linux by preference (KDE is such a good desktop), but Windows 10 is okay. I'd rather use Windows than Mac OS X, personally.

Well compared to cmd.exe everything is an improvement. I think pipes passing objects between commands is a novel idea too. A solution looking for a problem perhaps but it tickles my nerd neurons.

I'm gonna go ahead and say it, and there's nothing you can do to stop me! PowerShell is really useful and a good addition to Windows. There, I said it. And if you take the time to understand the syntax, you get to all sorts of fun thing with stdio, pipelining, and other things that you find on any Unix-shell.

I haven't worked much with it, but nothing I see about powershell makes me dislike it. The worst I can say is that its a bit overly verbose with its commands, and a blue shell is uncomfortable

Not going to say PowerShell is unusuable, but it feels like it was made to sell certificates proving that you understand it. I don't pretend to be a Bash wizard, but I can plain English explain every part of a command when I suggest friends do what I say to make computer do the thing.

I'm on step 7 I guess. I don't think I'll ever use Gentoo though, because I had enough fun  trying to get stuff like ungoogled-chromium to compile. I don't think I'll use BSD either, unless it's for official ZFS integration, and running it on a server.

This app is a pretty good windows native implementation of the GUI tmux type tool, but fuckin hell they really gotta add an option to disable the pop up on multi line pastes. Also a way to ignore exit codes when exiting a shell, there's no way to close them without X-ing the tab when they get in that state.

There's no gui toggle for it it's a json edit only. I get that it's considered a beta, but still.. (and in my recent fresh install it defaulted to on)

It feels very much in the spirit of all the bad things about Linux that it's using a json config file, instead of something like UCL or just a simple key-value store.

All I'm going to say further about Windows utilities in this thread is that if you run Windows and you have not... 1) Downloaded Windows Terminal from the Store 2) Downloaded the open-sourced PowerShell from the Store 3) Configured Terminal to default to OSS PS and hide the sysdefault PS 4) Installed scoop (Optional) Installed Chocolatey for the occasional weird utility that works poorly from Scoop due to limitations on portable apps then your Windows experience is not as Linux-like as it could be. I can't remember if OSS PS got rid of the aliases that link curl and wget commands to PowerShell's own InvokeWebrequest, or if you need to make a PowerShell profile to remove them if you want to use the actual wget/curl Windows binaries. People complained a ton but after years of posting Microsoft decided not to remove them from the default included closed-source copy of PowerShell (usually called "Windows PowerShell" now to distinguish it from the just plain PowerShell in development) because no matter what poor manners it is to steal a program's command away, you still risk breaking legacy behavior and that might interrupt some ancient computer's workflow.

So I’ve been using a Slackware base that I fresh installed like 15 years ago and have been manually keeping updated to current since then. It’s been through 3 motherboards and was still 32-bit and booting with LILO on legacy BIOS compatibility. I decided to make a clean break and throw Ubuntu on a Gigabyte Z590 D mobo with some 2TB M.2 NVMe’s and uhh… holy poo poo. I guess I’ve been out of the loop for awhile because I am floored at what just worked out of the box using open source drivers with no or nearly no configuration or loving around: WiFi Bluetooth (mouse) Audio It even auto detected my network printer and set it up Guess I’ve been missing out by insisting on doing things the hard way.
