What distro do you use and why? in c/linux@lemmy.ml
[–] bunitor@lemmy.eco.br 10 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

from the comments, there's a split between

  • linux as a tool: debian, mint, fedora, opensuse, etc.
  • linux as a toy: arch, gentoo, nixos, etc.

i wish this split was made more explicit, because more often than not someone comes looking for recommendations for linux as a tool, but someone else responds expecting they want linux as a toy. then the person will try out linux and will leave because it's not what they want, not knowing that there is a kind of linux that is what they want

i see people saying that, but the process was almost automatic to me. what issues are you having?

eu praticamente não uso o site, fico só no thunder

that's disconnected me from the general linux user experience

are we romanticizing having a broken system?

why would they use the gplv3 in the first place? didn't they know it's incompatible with v2?

When Do Debian Packages Receive Updates? in c/linux@lemmy.ml
[–] bunitor@lemmy.eco.br 8 points 3 days ago

it usually updates most packages when a new patch version is released (eg 2.3.1 -> 2.3.2). besides that, they will not update packages to new releases that add features

there are some special cases where it might choose to update more often. debian uses firefox esr by default, but it will update to a newer esr version no matter what, for security reasons. the same must be true for thunderbird.

and it seems to work pretty well with touchscreens according to the video

specs aren't really that important tbh and i think a laptop will always be bulkier than a device with no keyboard. but i'm accepting recommendations anyway

when it comes to regular old gahnoo slash linux, she's right. plasma, gnome, lxde, etc, were not made with a touch screen interface as a main form of interaction in mind. touch capabilities in the usual linux des tend to be an afterthought in my experience

linux-capable tablets for $100-$200 (lemmy.eco.br)
 

i'm seriously considering permanently abandoning laptops in favor of tablets. i spent a day working on my wife's tablet today and it was fine enough for when you're on the go that the small screen isn't too much of an issue. plus, you get an extended battery life, no noise, more comfort carrying it around, and the best of all, for much less money

the biggest downside is that, since tablets are technically embedded devices, they're much more locked up and you basically have no access to the system with the stock rom

so im looking for a cheap tablet ($100-$200), around 10 inches, that i can easily (or at least reliably) install linux to. any recommendations?

for those worried about the impact of sanctions on linux, is any of the bsds a better alternative? (lemmy.eco.br)
 

(this post obviously assumes the recent removal of russian devs due to sanctions is bad; no need to comment if you disagree)

a lot of people i know are considering jumping ship to some bsd after the recent MAINTAINERS debacle, but i'm skeptical it would make any difference. afaik, they're just as us-centric as linux if not more (it's the berkeley software distribution, after all). also, my biggest gripe about the bsds and the main reason i've never had any interest in them is their permissive licensing. permissive licenses suck

would there be any difference wrt sanctions in the bsds or moving away from linux to *bsd bc of that would be pointless?

is anyone on here using cppfront in production? (hsutter.github.io)

i've been playing with cppfront for a few minutes now and it's been a surprisingly pleasant experience so far. i'm tempted to try it out at work to see what happens, but i wanna know if anyone tried to use it in production and what your experiences are

for those who haven't heard of it, cppfront is a cpp2 to c++ compiler, a bit like coffeescript for js. cpp2 is herb sutter's proposal of a new and cleaner c++ syntax with better ergonomics, better orthogonality, and better defaults

encontro emacs brasil? (lemmy.eco.br)
 

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.eco.br/post/8290351

será que não temos pessoas suficientes aqui pra marcar um encontro emacs no brasil? acho que não precisaria nem ser na mesma cidade que todo mundo mora, eu mesmo moro no rio e estaria disposto a ir pra são paulo ou bh, já que são umas 8h de viagem e uns 200 reais ida e volta.

(edit: mods, i'm posting this bc i couldn't find any rules restricting the posts to english only, but i'll remove this post if you're not comfortable with a non-english post)
