That is disgusting. 'nuff said.

I read through the update but I’m not quite sure what this means for Valve or Arch Linux. Can users expect better compatibility with hardware and software for gaming? Will this affect other distros or only Arch?

This seems to be some of the most worthwhile advice. I do use a pretty reasonable DNS client (NextDNS) and it allows me to configure some useful filters and such, and when I’m browsing the internet I also use uBlock Origin and manually allow any third party content one by one.

I did configure UFW to block incoming and allow outgoing, and that should be more than enough for me. I think I’m a pretty “standard” user in the sense that I would make a fairly average target for a would-be attacker. It’s not like I own a web server with goodies worth exploiting.

A part of me really wants to learn more because at some point I’ll have my own router that I’ll want to ensure is configured properly because I’ll likely end up making my own server for media stuff.

Thank you for your reply!

I recently made the switch to Linux for my primary computer and I felt sad I really don’t know anything about using the CLI. Thanks to your comment, I found Hacknet on Steam and it’s on a wicked awesome discount right now so I bought it and have played for a few hours.

Now I know how to at least navigate the system through directories, and that’s giving me confidence enough to keep on exploring and studying more. Thank you! :)

Thank you! I’ll adapt to using kden, I appreciate it

Thanks for letting me know, I think that’s the best news I can get so I don’t go on a wild goose chase trying out random drivers with no success lol

It’s just an intel i7, there’s no dedicated GPU, no separate graphics card. The program doesn’t seem to recognize the CPU for an iGPU.

Thank you! :]

Finally bit the bullet and got a Thinkpad and I’m leaning towards putting Fedora on it. I’ve never used Linux before but I’ve done some research and I like the idea of something that updates more often than Debian but isn’t as DIY as Arch. Do y’all think Fedora would make a good starting point? I hear it’s stable enough and offers enough non-free applications through the RPM file management system.

Also, are there any drawbacks in using the immutable Silverblue version? I’m considering it just so I don’t do anything dumb by accident.

Thank you! :D

This. Physical media is awesome to own, and ripping extremely high-quality copies is actually pretty easy, just time-consuming.

I recommend EAC (Exact Audio Copy). It’s free and there are some awesome guides online for setting it to get the best quality for your rips.

That’s awesome! Now how can I add it to Libreoffice?
