I like the atomic nature of it
Did you mean immutable? Never heard of an “atomic distro” before.

Follow this GitHub rabbit hole, long story short it is no longer possible.


Growing up you’re told “If it don’t make dollars, it don’t make sense” and I think that sums up the answer to this question.


Stopped updating my iPhone 16 Pro in hopes of jailbreaking it one day, it would be nice to find a Linux phone as well someday with decent hardware.

Take that survey, express yourself


Hosting your own DNS resolver is quite simple. Suggest trying PiHole.


Head tracking is a gamechanger for flying or driving games
I feel like if I was playing Forza with head tracking I would get frustrated by my poor driving skills.


Majority of games don’t officially support Linux but yet they work fine with Proton, while occasionally requiring tweaks, while its appreciated that they’re aiming for Proton support in actuality developers should be aiming for a native Linux build with Vulkan instead of DX11/12.


my intention was for this to be the short version of Plutonium-239 so it matches better with the logo. I kind of hope for this to be colloquially refered to as just Plutonium
My first thought when I saw your domain was not plutonium-239, it was P U 239, your website doesn’t reference plutonium until 8-9 paragraphs in.


Truthfully, documentation is your friend, read it and interpret it as best as you can.
and I want to be able to download “app” “installers” like you do with PC or MacOS
Linux systems use Repositories to install “packages”, these packages are pieces of software that are either small or relatively large, for example the Linux kernel itself is a pre-installed package on every Linux distro.
Packages can sometimes depend on other packages to function properly, this is what we call “dependencies”, if you’re missing a dependency that a package requires it will likely fail to execute.
Lately we’ve been seeing packages like Flatpak and Snap enter the Linux ecosystem, their goal is to make Linux easy for newcomers such as yourself where you don’t have to worry about dependencies and you just click the “install” button for a package and be done with it however, in the background Flatpaks and Snaps put that package in a “virtualized container” with the already required dependencies installed, which works great for newcomers but most Linux veterans will prefer native packages as they’re easier to troubleshoot and requires less overhead (resources) from the computer.
Circling back, it is important to note the top 3 distributions available. Debian, Fedora and Arch the majority of distros out there base themselves off of one of these 3, Ubuntu is based off of Debian, SteamOS is based off of Arch and Nobara is based of off Fedora, you get the idea, personally I’m a Debian user and suggest it only if you want the ”raw” Linux experience otherwise I would suggest Linux Mint and or Kubuntu for beginners who’re just learning.


charmbracelet/vhs a cli tool installs Chrome in the background without permission - is this still Open Source?
If I’m not mistaken, Invidious Companion, spawns a X11 session and starts a Chrome instance to circumvent YouTube blocking so that folks using Invidious has a usable experience.


will I be fine with debian or are the packages just too old?
I use Debian with a 3060ti - i9 11th gen combo, works fine, if you’re familiar with Debian then you’ll likely have an alright experience.
Make sure you don’t break Debian and you’ll be fine.
Edit: I don’t use Ai with Debian, I’d suggest learning about Docker and running it through a container.


I have been laughed out every time I’ve mentioned it for years.
I got approval from my managers and IT to install a Linux based OS on my work desktop, then a half-wit Windows-fanboy dev chimed in claiming our insurance would not cover the operating system if there were ever a security breach, data loss, etc. to say I was infuriated was an understatement.
All we use is a Web-App to accomplish our tasks, no in-house proprietary executables or anything along those lines, hell they claimed their Web-App wouldn’t work on Firefox browsers, which of course was a lie.
Bought an Asus TUF laptop back in 2020? Maybe 2021, had a Ryzen 3750H and a 1660ti, at first it was great and was an improvement from my previous laptop but unfortunately barely lasted a year before the fan bearings started to give out and made terrible sounds, even after replacing the fans they barely lasted a month before going back to the horrid noises.
The thing struggles to keep itself cool. Doesn’t matter if it’s running Debian or Windows it was horrible to do literally anything without getting frustrated.
Eventually upgraded and gave it to a buddy who didn’t have a computer, thing still sucks as a daily driver and I definitely wouldn’t trust it in a server environment. The sounds of those fans still haunt me to this day.


Guess you won’t be making issues there for a while eh


I learned writing code for free, by looking at other code and reading online manuals.
I also learned how to play the piano by listening to people playing it and getting online sheet music for free.
Do you have a bot army that scrapes websites and repositories? Do you not give credit when credit is due? Do you poorly plagiarize work and claim it to be your own?
While I appreciate the learning aspect, the abuse of these LLM’s is blatantly clear.
Might sound ridiculous but maybe don’t open port :22 on your routers firewall?
Edit: this appears to only apply to passwordless users/accounts?
