I'm currently running a home server using Ubuntu OS, but I'd like to try and explore other options for operating systems to better my skills with linux/unix.

What are you hoping to explore? Distrohopping servers is pretty much pointless, especially if you're using docker.

Like you're going to use dnf to install docker instead of apt, maybe configure selinux instead of apparmor, and that's it. Definitely not worth it IMO.

Yet in 2025 w3c is a pain in the ass

Did anyone else read it as "vi bing" at first?

Yeah, who'd hate using a package manager that increasingly slows down your boot time with every package installed, or that uses a closed source store to provide you FOSS

Maybe there's a reason canonical has to force it on their users

No, Debian doesn't take your apt install ... command and install a snap behind your back...

Both look really cheap, and are badly designed, especially when compared to lotr.

For example look at the angles on the chest.

Boromir's armour is angled to deflect incoming strikes. So if someone tries to stab him in the chest, the strike will slide off. It makes sense, and is the basis of good, functional armour throughout history.

Now look at these other two. You can aim for the heart, miss and hit the ribs, and the tip will still slide and go under the pec. It directs all strikes towards your heart instead of away from it.

So why should we use this instead of just saying lixmaballs and using nix/aux/nux/whatever other fork?

Dude still hasn't decided where to host the repo. It's not an alternative, guix is...

Flying would be a very high demand service and could be sold for much more than what a train ticket costs. If it was feasible, it would have already been done.

Wait a bit Ubuntu is next. They already added terminal ads, embedded affiliate links for amazon, and sold user data to amazon.

MX Linux, Xfce 4.18

Closing the laptop lid suspends the system, opening it resumes it, but the screen is black. I'm guessing it's related to powerup because suspending through the logout menu and systemctl suspend both work as expected. When it's black, switching to a different tty works, as well as C-M-Backspace to logout.

Same results with both lightdm and sddm, when replacing suspend with hibernate, and I've tried a few solutions like disabling lock on sleep.

Seems like this issue has been around for years, but had a whole bunch of different causes since every other thread has a different solution.

XFSETTINGSD_DEBUG=1 xfsettingsd --replace --no-daemon > /tmp/xf.log 2>&1

ps -ef | grep -E 'screen|lock'

xfconf-query -c xfce4-power-manager -lv

dmesg, cleared it before trying to suspend

updates:

I'm not seeing a black screen, instead it turns on the display and then turns it off.

Additionally, I tried closing and opening the lid a few times, and it woke up correctly.

I tried it in i3wm with the xfce power manager to suspend after closing the lid. It woke up correctly 10 times in a row.

Solution: start an xrandr config and the monitor turns back on.

Try it, the worst thing that can happen is you waste a few hours, get mad, break your PC, and get a brain aneurysm

This community is:

A general purpose programming community for English speakers

Language specific posts like:

and ide specific posts like:

are not general purpose. Posts like that ruined /r/programming for me, and this community seems to be going down the same road. I'm here to read about programming concepts that can be applied to any/most languages, not patch notes for 10 different Js frameworks posted by karma farming bots. If I wanted to read posts like that, I'd have subbed to /c/javascript...

Do you agree with me that they should be removed from /c/programming, and limited only to their respective communities? Or have I missed the point of this community?
