Ive worked with thermal printers used in POS, and usually they use a different protocol than notmal printing so you’re not using cups (basically you send “commands” with text and its position). But i am sure there are some exceptions…

Was more thinking about running games in sandboxes, other than the overhead i could see some games not being happy with that

Linux is built by the community for the community. I think trying to help people move to linux is just in just in linux users blood 😅

I haven’t tried it so i dont actually know what im talking about, but i feel like installing steam through flatpak is asking for trouble.

Maybe, but a) polievre is much much worst b) do that outside of parlement. We need to keep that place somewhere to debate policies, not personnal character. Insults are not allowed there for a reason and a basic respect should be required.

Music. Probably singing and acoustic guitar. I really like singing, even if I’m really bad at it, and I like getting lost in music. Yes I can listen to some music, but I feel like doing it yourself gives it something more. Someday I’ll get classes haha, I need more hours in my day

I’ve watched them so much, that when I started to learn english I just started to watch that movie in english, since i knew by hart half of what they were saying

I mean… I agree the vast majority of the time car problems are not dangerous. But at the same time I saw a car randomly catch on fire while it was still moving soooo yeah. (for info the guy got out just in time and was perfectly fine)

It’s on my to-do list, but you can also spin up your own language tool instance so that your data never leaves your house, since it is open source: https://github.com/languagetool-org/languagetool

If you have a homeserver it can go there, otherwise you can also run it on your computer although I am not sure how much RAM it will use.

Idk, i feel like control over food supply might be a bigger factor on these friendships :p

Since you’re just starting out, I would probably recommend mint. I think it’s the most stable of the “mainstream” distros and you’ll have less frustrations. If you want to have a great experience with managing packages, I think installing and using the nix package manager is the best way to manage packages on any distros (and who knows, maybe in a year or 2 you’ll want to try nixOs!)

NixOs is so much fun (it is my main distro rn) but I would never recommend it to someone who is just switching from windows for the first time. Any more mainstream distro would be better, but I would still recommend using the nix package manager because it’s just so good

Well that’s pretty bad. I just switched to hyprland and like it, but I don’t want to give those people a bigger platform than what they already have… Ah shit I’ll have to think about that. Why can’t we have nice things that aren’t made by complete assholes.

Other than what was already answered, I also like Coding Blocks (programming podcast), Tech won’t save us (a sociological/ethical discussion on the tech industry) and DevOps Paradox (podcast on devops)

What’s already mentioned is also very good, but I really insist on darknet diaries which is probably my favorite podcast of all time.
