IMHO, it’s just humans being humans. And while someone may excel in one or many areas, they’re often lacking in others. And we see it all out in the open with projects like this!

n2burns@lemmy.cato Open Source@lemmy.ml•Liberux NEXX Is a New (Still in Development) Linux Phone103·2 months agoA few points:
- LiberuxNexx sounds like a medication’s marketing name.
- It says “2TB storage” then in the details it’s actually 256GB + microSD support, which IMHO is very different.
- To me, this just sounds like a new version of the PinePhone Pro or Librem 5. Yes, it’s got newer & better hardware, but there’s no release date or even price.
IMHO, you should consider doing more troubleshooting on Kmail. I’ve never used it personally, but from my understanding, it’s a stable program and shouldn’t have problems doing the basics of email, like you’re reporting.
And how could this war have been avoided?
n2burns@lemmy.cato Politics@beehaw.org•WTF Is DOGE Doing in Department in Charge of Nuclear Weapons?10·4 months agoWhile they call it a department, it’s not a new department. They renamed the “United States Digital Service” and created the “U.S. DOGE Service Temporary Organization” under it.
n2burns@lemmy.cato Politics@beehaw.org•WTF Is DOGE Doing in Department in Charge of Nuclear Weapons?9·4 months agoThe White House has said Musk and his DOGE colleagues are “special government employees.” It has yet to be seen of that arrangement is legal, but as it stands, they are part of the government workforce which is why bureaucrats are “going along with this”.

It was definitely 2020 and that was turbocharged by COVID.

When I searched for lemmy@lemmy.ml on Mastodon (specifically masto.ai), I got the community, not the user. Not sure why, but that’s what I got.

Is that a limitation of the destination filesystem?
Now I am faced with needing to replace my SSD which gives me reason enough to install a new distro.
Replacing an SSD is pretty simple on Linux; just copy over the data, adjust the partitions, select the new drive in UEFI/BIOS. If you want to try a different distro, any time is good, but a new SSD doesn’t require a reinstall.
My advice from my distro-hopping days is to dual-boot with potential new distros (unless space is at a premium). I just made sure to share important folders like /home/. That way, if I didn’t like my new setup, I could quickly fall-back to the old.
If you’re new, IMHO you should be looking at the distro as a whole, not the DE specifically. Yeah, if you find one you mostly like but want to try other similar distros, it’s probably a good thing to stay with the same DE. However, it’s not something to get hung up on as distros often tweak the DE.
And to answer your question, Cinnamon. After years of distro-hopping, I’ve spent most of the past decade on Linux Mint.

n2burns@lemmy.cato Linux@lemmy.ml•what minimalist 12.8 debian compatible radio program would you recommend?1·7 months agoWhen I open your link for radiotray-ng, it says, “ebruck released this 2 weeks ago.” You’ll also notice if you go to the Releases page, it doesn’t show the year for the current year, but does for past years.
It looks like Cider is released as a Flatpak or AppImage. I’m not super familiar with building these/troubleshooting, but the error messages you are getting look like a poorly packaged app (Failed to load module “xapp-gtk3-module”).
