Apology accepted 🙂

Google gets a lot of hate, and they, as a company and as a search engine have gotten worse over the years, but they still do a lot of stuff right. I never took it personally, just giving an example.

Just because it’s becoming less useful doesn’t mean it’s useless. I search for stuff every day and can find the answer I’m looking for in under a few minutes.

You just suck at searching for stuff apparently.

Yeah, if you feel like waiting for an answer when you could easily do it yourself in two seconds.

Google is helpful when you have questions 😉

It seems that you need to read up on the basics of Linux if you don’t know what a bash script is.

What is painful about using KDE in Arch? Fedora supports KDE as well, just look up “Fedora KDE Respin” it’s just not the default DE.

Any Linux distro that you choose will almost always support any DE that you choose, the difference between distros isn’t that much anymore.

It looks like the database is either missing or corrupted, try to unzip one of the backups in the backups folder, stop radarr, replace the current database files with the unzipped backup files and start radarr.

If it didn’t work you can just remove the config and database files and set it up again.

That’s unlikely to happen in every country where they’re popular. Microsoft can just be like “oh you’re gonna fine us? We’ll pull out and you guys will be completely removeded. Have fun!”

They got into the enterprise sector so early that most offices wouldn’t function without Microsoft products/support.

Agreed, Wayland has a monumental task to do: replacing a 30+ year old windowing system.

And then from ALSA to PulseAudio haha

I’m still on Plasma5, so I can’t really help, but are you using Wayland or X11? I’d say switch to the other and see if it still happens.

They can be the same partition, they are for different purposes though. EFI holds the EFI binaries as the name implies, while /boot holds the initrd, kernel, and the bootloader config files.

If they are the same partition, /boot needs to be formatted as FAT32 and have EFI as a subdirectory. Otherwise they can be separate partitions, either way the partition that contains the EFI directory needs to be formatted as FAT32.

Yeah

Flipboard still exists? I remember when the concept of digital magazines were all the rage back in the late 2000s/early 2010s, I tried various apps multiple times and it was always so much more cumbersome to use than a physical magazine.

Yeah,Persistent Device Naming became mainstream a few years back.

Glad that helped you, they shouldn’t be changing since the names are based on their location in the PCI bus instead of being generic (eth0, eth1, etc…). IIRC you can specify udev rules to name the devices what you want using UUIDs or something that way you’ll always know what they’re called. I’d suggest reading about Ethernet device naming in Linux if you want to know more.

I get your reasoning, a lot of “re-spins” are hidden away on many distros download pages, but saying something like “I don’t like Ubuntu because it uses Gnome” is like saying “I don’t like Fords because they come with radios”.

Regarding PopOS it probably is true because it probably all GUI specific things setup for new users, anything system level wouldn’t be changed.

I’ve considered giving it a go again since I have a 24 core Threadripper which could easily compile everything pretty quickly, I just never got around to it.

No worries, sometimes I end up replying days or a week later myself haha
