Yes this works with powerlevel10k theme for oh my zsh.

I got different colors for Kubernetes clusters. Like green for testing cluster, yellow for development and red for production. Always taking a Quick Look before I do something

This is the graybeard way! Even Korloks are sooo easy when your team shooting it all the time and as a driller dig a tunnel under the main thingy and when it opens just drill into it from below.

Postfix! I worked at an E-commerce company that sent newsletters(spam) through shitty Windows SMTP servers. Looking for speed and some other neat things (DKIM and modify headers) I setup postfix on Debian and I guess this system is still running. Quickly after that I explored NGINX as a reverse proxy for yet again shitty Windows IIS webservers. This was my entry to open source and Linux in general.

Ah I see, ragica is right. krunner bin is part of plasma-workspace, kinda misleading that there’s an own package.

I dont’t see plasma-workspace as a dependecy. Output from paru:

This is still alot for one tool, but as far as I can see it will not install the whole plasma desktop again. I am running GNOME, so not sure if GNOME already brings some dependencies not mentioned in my output.

Did you try a simple pacman -S krunner?

Surprised that nobody yelled Proton yet? Lots of Windows games running pretty good, some close to native, some even better on Linux through Proton. But here is the thing you mentioned which could be a problem: anti cheat. It works on Linux but depends on the developer to enable it. Some major games simply does not support it. You can check them here: https://areweanticheatyet.com/ , for general compability check https://protondb.com , even non Steam games can run through Lutris with little to no hassle. Proxmox with GPU passthrough seems like a big clunky overhead in terms of gaming but maybe you got that game that will never run on Linux.

Maybe it is too late because of your filesystem choice but btrfs snapshots delievers enough security if something goes wrong. Rsync seems like a little bit overhead for updating only There is even a pacman hook that makes pre and post snapshots of your filesystem with snapper. Tldr: most of your steps can be automated with pacman hooks. But if you like it this way its fine

Thanks for clarification. I think I heard about Trisquel but to be tbh most Linux beginners do not surf the FSF website at first, they just google stuff and find a ton of blogs and articles and dive into the pretty standard distros like Mint and Ubuntu.

I never heard of this distros lol. I think distrochooser is a tool for newbies. If you know your mentioned distros it is not the tool for you I guess.

You got a point with NVD but this case shows how one could damage the reputation of a product - this really looks like Bagder didnt care about security, even the 2020 prefix is a bad sign looking from the outside. I am not sure how the NVD define CVE scores but as bagder openly explains this isnt a flaw in security, just a bug he already fixed years ago.

I wont spoiler you if you didnt play RDR2 yet

Arthur Morgan voice (while running through Proton): Thank you.

This looks awesome. Maybe I will adapt some things to my Arch install. This Distrobox thing looks great.

More context:

https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/issues/9599

Seems to be a memory leak bug, do not upgrade to mesa 23.1.6!

Yes take a look here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Sudo#Enable_insults

I like when my system insults me when I do dumb things. This is why enabled the „insults“ option in my sudoers config.

WE’RE RICH

You’ll break things if you do more and more stuff suggested inside this thread without testing it. Maybe executing ldconfig was enough, but if you try more and more stuff you don’t know what you did. Linux is very hard to break, especially when you didn’t mess around with things like packages and libraries by yourself, there’s mostly a way back. But if you’re scared use the time and make a backup and a live USB stick with a Linux distro of your choice to rescue the system if something’s terribly messed up.
