I tried Bazzite a few months ago and replaced it with a non-immutable distro in the same day because I couldn’t get my password manager (1Password) to work with Firefox.

The installation of 1Password was kind of a hassle as there is no official way to install it systemwide on an immutable distro, so I followed an unofficial tutorial. That worked somehow, but then came the integration into Firefox. For this to work, you have to install firefox as a native package, too, so you have to layer it through ostree.

But here comes the issue: The original Silverblue does already include native Firefox, and Bazzite removed it and replaced it with a flatpak. I have googled a lot and haven’t found an answer yet on how to layer a package that was removed in a previous layer. I’m not sure if it’s even possible, but the complete lack of documentation for such a trivial thing really turned me away from immutable distros. When I had an issue on Arch, I would find the answer in the ArchWiki 95% of the time, but here I couldn’t even find a proper documentation for how the layering works.

This on top of other issues like not being able to get Autocomplete/Intellisense working in VSCode because I can’t properly install the required compilers and libraries made me turn back to Arch in a single day. Maybe it’s just my mindset that’s a bit stuck on how to do things the “old” way, but if I have to spent hours to get even a basic workflow going for me, then I guess I’m not yet ready for immutable distros.

They are still considered essential in German schools.

I got basic steel and coal power up and running. Started in the Northern Forest this time, but I got annoyed pretty fast with the lack of flat space to build. So I moved my HUB to the Grass fields because I haven’t build there in a long time and it’s actually really beautiful. Currently building my base around the HUB and will move to advanced steel soon.

Oh, and I also rushed the collection of mercer spheres because the Dimensional Depot is absolutely amazing!

Glaub du verwechselst das mit Wodka.

No, LTSC only receives security updates, not feature updates.

I’m running Windows 10 LTSC with a custom start menu (StartIsBack). So far I have avoided all of Microsoft’s nonsense.

As long as I’m not ready to switch to Linux 100%, this is probably the best possible solution.

Das ist nicht, wie dieses Maimai funktioniert.

Not in Germany, they renamed it to MS Anne.

Isn’t yay just a wrapper for pacman?

I suppose you’re talking about a 32-bit app that wasn’t updated for the newer 64-bit architecture. If yes, then there’s actually a technical reason behind it, not just Apple being dicks. Because other than 32-bit apps, every app that received a 64-bit update should still work on the latest iOS.

I love the long german shortcut names. ALTERNATIVER WEB-BROWSER MOZILLA! DEBIAN-ANWENDERHANDBUCH! ADMINISTRATIONS PASSWORT EINSTELLEN!

Jesus, UI design was terrible back then. I’m not talking about technical limitations, I don’t need fancy transparency effects or something like that, but I’m sure that you could come up with something much better using the old UI libraries as long as you follow modern design principles.

Maybe that’s why he became a dentist.

That doesn’t mean anything. I once had an issue where every few hours, a random application would crash on Arch Linux, but not on e.g. Debian or Windows. But this wasn’t an Arch issue per se, but was instead related to an UEFI overclock setting (which defaulted to on). After turning it off, everything worked fine.

So while it seemed like an Arch issue, it was actually hardware/overclock related, it’s just that the other OS wouldn’t run into the trigger for the crash.

Your BIOS definitely got upgraded, what you’re seeing is actually the new BIOS version. MSI said they simplified the UI because the BIOS ROM size is pretty limited and they want to support as many CPUs as possible.

Wait, you’re telling me that the price on the shelf doesn’t include tax where you live?

Or just yay

Kurze Frage an die Runde: Gibt’s irgendwas, dass gegen Volt spricht? Von den Standpunkten her stimmen die sehr mit meinen Überein, aber ich hab mich mit deren Mitgliedern nicht wirklich auseinandergesetzt.
