Slackpkg or slackpkg+, without a doubt.

Lead us to salvation tech jesus!

I have bazzite on my daughter’s machine. I still had to enable compatibility for other titles. It’s not a huge deal if you know it’s there, but it can be a stumbling block for someone testing the waters.

You don’t need snow tires in Chicago. The streets are very well plowed and salted. Just take it slow.

Valve needs to enable Proton by default.

Slackware!

If it’s a steal, buy it and try it. Worst case, you could turn a small profit by reselling it.

May i see the output of neofetch?

Our wives must know each other. Me recently: it’s not useless junk! It’s a CD tower NAS with 10 base t token ring capability! The guy who ran a bbs in my local calling area had one that served up Warez in 1997! I was a very early adopter of mp3. I used the original program released by the fraunhoeffer Institute to rip my friend’s metallica bootlegs and upload them for extra leech credits. It would take half a day to encode 128kbps mp3 files on my non-mmx cyrix 6x86, and I could only store 1 CD worth of mp3s at a time on my 800mb hard drive. Besides, I got a really good deal on it!

You delicious bastard! Thanks for the rook tip.

I get it. Date your distro, marry your browser.

I miss the level of customization you could do in Vivaldi, down to minute details. But I don’t miss it enough to put up with ads and tracking nonsense.

I started on Firefox back when it was a beta called Phoenix. I eventually moved to chromium based browsers like the rest of the world, but now I’m back. I’ve come full circle!

My wife didn’t even notice when I turned on the pi-hole. She also told me she thinks there’s a virus on her phone.

I made the switch from Vivaldi back to Firefox recently. I loved Vivaldi, but I’m happy with Firefox too.

I think it’s a delusion of grandeur.

Gas like natural gas? Or gas like gasoline? I’m sure it’s the former, but I take nothing for granted anymore.

I too was a bit underwhelmed by sway. I also bought an amd gpu, but I don’t regret it. I couldn’t get Wayland to work at all on my 3060 ti.

Compiz fusion! I spent so long trying out different effects for different actions. I smoked a lot of reefer in those days.

Does Phoenix have a big enough local talent pool needed to staff this kind of operation? Or are they counting on attracting talent from other places in the US?

I’ve used slackware more or less exclusively since the late 90s. It’s been my daily driver since I deleted my windows XP partition some time in the early 00s. It’s really all I know. Sure, I can find may way around a .deb based system when I have to. I’m also likely to apt install something, say yes to 50 dependencies, brick my system and have no idea what did it.

I love to tinker, and I love to learn. There’s no shortage of either in Slackware, and that’s why it’s not for everyone. And I don’t mean that in an “i use arch btw” way. I’m an intermediate user at best. I ask for help way more than I provide help. Lucky for me I’ve made some good friends in the Slackware community over the years.
