I enabled Wayland manually in /etc/gdm3/custom.conf and I've seen no issues. Screen tearing went away which is a plus. So is there a logical reason why Wayland isn't enabled by default?

Not asking for ranting purposes, I'm just curious. I thought Pop_OS! is currently incompatible with Wayland.

I know this doesn't help but I think the file picker is by far the worst feature Linux has ever had. And our opinions are quite common among Linux users.

I give you 3 options and you google them and choose the one which suits you the best. 1. Change the boot order in your bios (Mint drive first) 2. Install package 'os-prober' and then update-grub (Win10 will appear in Grub) 3. Install rEFInd to replace Grub and choose everytime which OS you want to boot (set timeout by yourself). Warning: theming the rEFInd is known to be addictive.

It isn't actually a file manager. It is called a "file picker" and has been a reason to rant as long as I can remember, so close to a decade.

[-] Nuuskis@sopuli.xyz 5 points 11 months ago

Not at all. There are many many projects out there which should be killed anyway. Just stop using them.

I went from decade with dwm into Alpine + Sway and had zero issues. Actually the opposite, all the screen tearing and multi screen issues are now gone.

Kali isn't meant to be a desktop OS. Use it only in VM or in a spare rig. It is meant to be a toolbox. So dual boot it with your daily driver OS or use in a VM.

Your Mac can take Linux just well: https://djharper.dev/post/2020/06/07/running-linux-on-my-macbook/

For your 300 bucks budget look nothing else than Thinkpad T480 or HP Dev One. T480 will need replacement batteries if not replaced yet.

This is a tragedy.

Is there a possibility to make Linux install automatically delete the data if wrong decryption key is set x amount of times?

Would be nice too, if it started automatically to overwrite the data too even full disk overwrite takes a lots of time.

I tried to google docs, but I don't know the right words.

When I try to zoom this picture: https://lemmy.sdf.org/pictrs/image/3715574c-e575-44c4-9f79-0e578ac96953.png It is very very blurred despite being 1440p in size. When I try to download it, it downloads 50% of the horizontal top and down part is just black. I can't upload any pictures into Jerboa so it is not included in this post.

Superior thanks for all the hard work and we happy users try to grow the userbase!

How you would replace those in non-SystemD setup? Asking for learning purposes.

[-] Nuuskis@sopuli.xyz 11 points 1 year ago

Thanks a lot. I truly hope this is the big picture and SystemD whiners are just a fringe minority lol

SystemD is blamed for long boot times and being heavy and bloated on resources. I tried OpenRC and Runit on real hardware (Ryzen 5000-series laptop) for week each and saw only 1 second faster boot time.

I'm old enough to remember plymouth.service (graphical image) being the most slowest service on boot in Ubuntu 16.04 and 18.04. But I don't see that as an issue anymore. I don't have a graphical systemD boot on my Arch but I installed Fedora Sericea and it actually boots faster than my Arch despite the plymouth (or whatever they call it nowadays).

My 2 questions:

  1. Is the current SystemD rant derived from years ago (while they've improved a lot)?
  2. Should Linux community rant about bigger problems such as Wayland related things not ready for current needs of normies?

Jerboa is already faster and easier than Infinity.

System76 is doing huge leaps for Linux as a whole. They already offer the best bios on the market. I am keenly looking to buy their upcoming Virgo laptop when it's ready.
