From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Detectors say that you are human, you use multiple languages, and you are a moderator, but it feels like a 101 AI response. It's horrible that we're living in an era where you need to be careful about this. You were probably trying to format it nice, but I've only read this phrasing from AI.
But thanks for the answer, the home folder would probably be best. I don't want to think about it after setting it up. All my downloads and docs are there. I also feel like the whole filesystem would take forever for me to unlock/boot.
Are the detectors part for real or were you just kidding? 😲
Yes, I was, because I like to put my text well formated... I feel pain when I have to read bad formated texts, so I try to be as clean as possible
For home folder I think there is a better alternative, like systemd-homed or something like that
they got your back, why are you suprised?
Others also said systemd-homed. And it looks promising, I'll try it, but honestly I have no idea how to test it? From another user? From a liveboot usb?
Because I don't even knew that this kind of tool exists. And it was precise AF. I just got surprised/scared haha
About systemd-homed, I guess that liveusb will not work... I suggest you to try in a VM and everything going ok, you may try on another user on your pc
Oh, I think I'll wipe my laptop, and do it live. What I wanted to ask was how do I know if it's working?
