  • I started with Bazzite recently after getting a recommendation to go with a SilverBlue derived distro, and other than trying to figure out my own issues, it’s been pretty smooth.

    I do have a weird issue that crops up after reboot where the display environment variable isn’t exported or something. But considering I also had an issue with my steam library not loading that was user error, I’m not entirely sure that isn’t of my own making as well…














  • Since they handle redundancy and backups I think it’s fine staying with them (+ great product)

    This. I love self hosting services, but anything that I 100% can’t live without isn’t one of them. Because I don’t have the funds for proper redundancy/high availability, and my backup practices at home are… Not ideal. I’ve had a couple brushes with data loss due to gaps in backups, lack of monitoring for impending hardware failures, and had 2 disks suddenly die together in a raid array, all in over a decade of self hosting.

    I have cold backups of most of my critical services, but they’re not nearly regular enough for me to trust my passwords to myself.



  • How about calling it genocide vs even-more-genocide? Does that make the distinction any clearer between the choices that were available? Whether we like it or not (and I’m 100% in the latter group) ‘no genocide’ was not on the menu

    Don’t get me wrong, I’m disgusted by the state of politics in this country, and would not have voted for Kamala had there been any other person on the ballot that had a realistic choice of winning. But the choice was what we had, and we knew the outcome was going to be bad but workable or fucking awful naked fascism. And so many people chose fucking awful naked fascism in the face of not being able to hold up their moral purity, and now make arguments like she would have done all the awful shit that trump was telling us he was going to do.

    That’s why I said what I said. And if you actually read the article I linked above instead of taking what the other user cherry picked out, you’ll see that even the staffer who left because of Gaza said we should have voted for her for basically the reason of what we’re seeing happen.
