ah yes the “clean your room” chap who is actually a hoarding benzo addict.


yeah it wouldn’t. Plus Beastiality is sex between a human and an animal. Furry porn is like Disney mascots yiffing each other. and it’s all cartoonish.
I highly doubt someone at the RCMP is going to sit down and watch a dude dressed up like a purple doberman pounding town on a dude dressed up like a dragon and thinking “That dog is fucking a lizard!” then again maybe they do watch it, who am I to kink shame.


I’d rather use Omarchy than Manjaro that’s for sure and I absolutely hate Omarchy.
Arch on a Thinkpad. you did good.
I really need to find another used thinkpad, friggin love those things.
Gentoo is a fun hobby tinker thing on some laptop you don’t really care about. I will say kudos to people who do use it as a daily driver as they have way more time than I do and I envy them for it. If I had the the time to dedicate to it I would use it as a daily driver.


yeah I agree Terry was extremely talented, I’ve seen what he did with game animations and it blew my mind.
This distro however does reek of being built by a crazy person as they rant about how Ubuntu was based on Gnoppix and rails against tech journalists and Kubuntu for some reason.


this distro is just shady all over. even going to their site they said the project was based in Germany but states due to EU regulations had to relocate to the US BUT if you go to their jobs page they state they’re now a “Japanese Linux Open Source Project” BUT if you decide to look even further into it the thing looks like it’s NOW based out of Singapore. Also look at the sponsors in the page…Valve? Tuta? Google? I don’t buy it.
Then you look at their “forums” and it’s just…AI slop news articles?
This feels like a distro built by a crazy man almost on par with TempleOS.
I wouldn’t trust this thing as far as I could throw it.


I agree with you but lets be fair here prices are going to go up regardless. in fact they have gone up regardless of the fact the majority of fast food places are now run by TFWs. But I feel like it’s either one excuse over another “prices have gone up because you won’t allow us to use TFWs” or “prices have gone up because of something else even though every store is now 100% TFW.”


i.e. “Canadians don’t like being exploited so we need people from India who don’t mind it or simply don’t know any better”.
Why the hell should we bring over people from half way across the world to serve shitty coffee and crappy food? Canadians WILL work these jobs if you pay them enough. If you can’t pay the people that already live here a decent wage then shut down. The fact they feel they have to bring in people from India and pay them shit shouldn’t be tolerated.


Manwin is based out of Montreal, i.e. Pornhub. I can’t see this passing. Canada is quite literally the porn capital of the world, trust me I know I worked for 3 separate porn companies here in Canada. I just don’t see it happening.


I have a Razer Naga Left-Handed Edition and I’ve just used input-remapper with success. might depend on if you’re on Wayland or X11. dunno, just worked for me.


what helped me when I first started using Linux was the Arch Wiki. Even though I wasn’t using Arch the information in that wiki is invaluable. Even now that i’m on NixOS I still use the Arch Wiki as a tool when I need answers. everything is there. even man pages.
Another resource is IRC and Discord. I’m not sure if Bazzite as an IRC channel but the quickest answers to issues I was having has been via whatever distro channel on Libera. Discord also for specific distros. But I’ve found many of the maintainers and devs will hang out in their respective distros IRC channel all day so what better resource for help than directly from the source.
Finally either peertube or youtube channels. There are some fantastic channels that help learning this stuff. Primary of which is Veronica Explains. By far the most easy to understand and follow videos for linux. She reminds me of watching old episodes of The Screen Savers and Call for Help. Another that is great that is more specific to workflows and command line stuff is Bread on Penguins. Very easy to follow, she provides git repos and links to EVERYTHING she talks about and even writes most of it herself. For customizing your build There’s The Black Don. he’s great too. builds out a lot of stuff himself and provides repos for everything he’s working on. He’s built an awesome tool for Arch that allows reproducability similar to NixOS.


in previous interviews he’s pretty much said in the past that outside the Kernel he has no clue what’s going on as far as the entire Linux ecosystem. I watched an interview from awhile back where he didn’t even know what NixOS was. Time and time again he’s said all he really does now is read emails and compile the kernel to check for bugs. I believe he only uses Fedora, doesn’t like Debian and thus isn’t a fan of Ubuntu either. in an interview from a few years ago he said the only reason he prefers Ubuntu over Debian is it makes Debian “usable”. He pretty much always states he prefers a distro that allows him to easily work on the Kernel (that’s all he cares about) and so he uses Fedora.


have you bought bread within the past 20 years? yes? at some point in those past 20 years did you buy bread from one of the many owned Loblaw chains? probably, so you’re eligible.
Pretty much every Canadian did. So the payout from $500mil across like 20 years worth of Canadians…I imagine it’s going to be less than the $25 gift card they gave previously. but meh, free money is free money.


already support Canadian artists and have for awhile. Matthew Good, Alexisonfire, Silverstein, Our Lady Peace, Rush, the hip, Alice Glass, Cancer Bats, etc, etc, etc.
I mean for rock it’s not hard, so many great Canadian artists and bands. Not sure what it’s like for other genres but I’ve never had any issues listening to Canadian acts.


I use Niri and I love it. makes my workflow so much better and I don’t even worry about workspaces anymore.


mean while on /r/Toronto not a single post about it. gee, I wonder why…


yes it has improved a lot within the past year. I went from hating it a year ago to using it as my second DE for gaming. I hate to use this phrase but “It just works”. And honestly once they roll out their workspace thing for multimonitor setups in Feb I might switch from Niri to it and make it my daily driver.
ok champ.
