I’m sorry, maybe I can’t follow as a European, but what do you reference?

Thank you very much for those insights!!

Would you give your perspective anyway, as I would be quite interested, although I’m not the one you talked to?

Since when is Ukraine in Scandinavia?
Or did I miss something?

Isn’t spraying with poison the more cruel way to kill it?
Either it will die during an immediate fight for life or bring the poison to the nest, where all of them slowly die.

Why do you feed your dog with people?

Utter bullshit…

Idiocene?

Because of all the nice feedback about OpenSUSE:
SUSE was my first (bought) Linux distribution, at a time when I would have spent days downloading an ISO, SUSE was available with a manual in store. That was nice.

But then I had an AVM Fritz! ISDN card and it was a complete shit show to get this working. Especially as YAST(2?) didn’t support the configuration I needed, but every time you opened it, it would overwrite your manual changes in some configuration files.
(Edit: I’ll probably need to add, that this was like 25 years ago. So besides “fuck, I’m old”, my perspective in SUSE is very probably not up-to-date)

After that I hopped through a few distros and mostly stayed with basic Debian.

Nowadays I’m mostly using Manjaro (or just Arch itself, if I don’t need X), because I like the Arch package system and actually also the whole system architecture… Don’t exactly know what it is, but I feel much more at home.
With apt I sometimes found myself in situations, where a fresh install will resolve things faster than trying to restore/save the system. With Arch I always was somehow able to restore everything.

Can someone tell me how Tumbleweed differs/excels?
Thanks in advance!
Currently waiting for my new laptop (Framework 16 :-D) and that would be a nice opportunity to try something new.
But as I need my device for work, it’s important to me, that I really have it under my control and am not depending on some half-baked configuration utility like YAST was.

Edit: I’m also playing with the thought of moving to something immutable. NixOS looked nice in concept, but the more I read about it, the more I see that it’s more suitable for more server than my laptop - but maybe I’m wrong here, as I don’t have any hands-on experience

And just to add: Ayahuasca is not just a tea of DMT vines. It is specifically a mixture of DMT and MAOI, so it can be active - and be active for quite some time

But yeah, that’s nothing to mix in during your typical Saturday night.

Microsoft has built a number of safety features into Windows Recall to ensure that the service can’t run secretly in the background. When Windows Recall is enabled, it places a permanent visual indicator icon on the Taskbar to let the user know that Windows Recall is capturing data. This icon cannot be hidden or moved.

Oh my, that one is really cute

Software runs on processing power. Doesn’t matter if it’s mechanical, electrical or biological computing power.

The important part is, that something is processing it.
And although by now software development through abstraction feels disconnected from just specialised algorithms: everything will break down into numbers and some form of algorithm to process the information

You probably shouldn’t go for the clit while driving

What would be life without taking risks?

I kinda dig it

Being aware of being in an echo chamber isn’t a bad thing

Ah, alright
I currently use wireguard to access my home LAN. just hoped you had done experience with a nice system, so you don’t need to do it by hand - especially syncing my smartphone photos.
Maybe I’ll give immich another chance

Thanks for the answers! :-)

Thanks!

Just one question: How do you sync your photos to your NAS on the go?

Yeah, I’m having a hard time deciding about that.

On the one hand I’m often in business trips and want to be at least able to recover my data easily if something happens.

On the other hand getting the laptop stolen with all the data is a nightmare.

Didn’t look into current solutions for quite some time though. As I’m currently waiting for a new laptop, this could be a good time to check something out.
Anyone with some suggestions? (Will look into the encrypted FS OP recommended, but having options and opinions never hurts)

Edit: ok, just realised that APFS is Apple File System. So that’s not gonna roll for me, as I’m on Linux and would like to have something that’s actually designed and developed for it. Don’t know anything about Linux APFS support, but I’m a bit traumatised by NTFS and anyway I don’t want to have anything to do with Apple

Anyone with experience with encrypted LUKS and data recovery?
Some buzzwords for options would also greatly help me
Thanks for anything in advance!

Wouldn’t we also fuck up the oceans, the idea I’d going back would actually be sound
