What shady shit?

Slackware and Debian both started in 1993.

That’s not exactly true. You can pay through an existing credit card via Pix (it doesn’t have to be Visa or MasterCard), or pay in instalments via pre-approved credit with the bank.

The Debian installer rescue mode can make it a lot easier by dropping you on a terminal chrooted to your root filesystem with all other mounts already in place.

It will be CLI only but anyone who’s comfortable with a shell should have a much better time there than on a live distro.

That’s ok but it’s a bit cheeky to compare something meant primarily to be used as a stable system against a rolling release.

Yep.

I have a SLZB-06 as a Zigbee coordinator and sometimes it hangs. I can also not do OTA updates. I like the convenience but I’m not sure the hardware and/or firmware are quite there yet.

I believe some of the newest offerings by SMLIGHT can also do both.

I have been using Plasma 6 on Wayland on Debian for way longer than 2 years with no issues.

I can run Ollama. I haven’t tried to do much more than that.

I run a Debian host and honestly can’t recall if I ran it directly or on Docker, but it worked and had pretty good performance on a 7900 XTX.

The joke is that the answer could either mean the literal answers to the question, or that the person answering literally doesn’t know the answers and doesn’t care about any of it.

It’s a double entendre.

By missing this aspect and simply answering the question literally, the joke ceases to be.

I have HA on a separate VLAN from IoT devices and have set up mDNS reflection so it can find them.

On LG WebOS, the Homebrew Store has an Ad-free YouTube app that works well too.

Control-A and E should work in insert mode. That’s why OP mentions pressing escape before issuing the normal mode ^ and $ commands.

In insert mode, some or most of the EMacs-style shortcuts work.

I have 2 strips that are tied to their systems and they keep giving me trouble. The Matter stuff though, has been rock solid and there’s no need to use their app at all.

I have a couple of Matter-over-WiFi (no dongle required) from Meross.

They’ve been fine since the latest firmware when they added power monitoring over Matter (previously it required their app for that as the protocol itself was lacking those sensors).

This is the real answer. Other apps might be bottlenecked by IO so the CPU doesn’t work as hard. Get faster disks, the CPU will see more use. Since top is so small that it loads into memory almost instantly, and has no need for further IO, the CPU is free to spin all the way!

People get worked up when CPU usage is high, but unless there’s a resource leak somewhere, that just means the computer is working at full efficiency.

I think that’s just people. Lemmy just happens to be one of the forums where that’s observed.

But if they are indeed right, and that fire they have about it is used to defend their point-of-view until it’s been so scrutinised and counter-argued that either it has been shown to be incorrect, or no counter could undo the initial argument, is that not progress?

Lemmy is not academy. This is a web forum, most of us are not here to do formal science.

Guess what, most if not all veggies and vegans are also doing something morally dubious at best.

Factory farming, extensive farming, they’re all bad for the soil, bad for native wildlife, bad for native plants. The societal impacts of factory farming are also not small. In the end, the moral lines people draw are mostly at different places, neither is undoubtedly better than the other.

As it currently stands, the morally correct option for food production would probably be for a large amount of the population to starve. That, of course, is also not entirely morally correct.

Disclaimer: I am personally omnivorous. I have a son and many other relatives and friends who are or were vegetarians or vegans. I love a lot of veggie food and used to frequent vegan restaurants, so I have absolutely zero qualms with it.

I have personally tried to give up meat twice, once for 6 months and once for a year. On both cases my health suffered massively for it, and I went back to eating meat. I had a cousin who was, for many years, a hardcore vegetarian. She was also of the opinion that eating meat was wrong. A few years ago she reintroduced fish in her diet to overcome health issues after fighting them for years. Most symptoms subsided in a handful of months. I believe she now also eats beef, although infrequently and in small quantities.

I’m sorry to be that guy but reality is more complex than whatever moral line any one of us would like to draw. You’re not wrong but it would behoove you to acquire some nuance on your thoughts.

Amazingly, the same countries who are at risk due to aging/decreasing populations are the ones now refusing as much entry of people from other countries as they can.
