I’ve been after a smallish chair side table for ages & struggled to find what I wanted.
I’ve just finished putting this together & it’s not fancy, but it also wasn’t expensive. I’m happy with it anyway. Perfect height & extra room underneath. It’ll do 😁. The only thing left over is the allen key, so I did it correctly. #FlatPack.

Von #Flatpack und co halte ich gar nichts.

Da geben sich Leute viel Mühe ein stabiles System zu schaffen und dann wird drumherum installiert & beim Distriupdate gehts in die Hose

Am Ende wird auf #Linux rumgehackt
Selbst hier schon gelesen.

Das ist zudem auch gar nicht nötig.

Immer die neueste Version haben zu müssen funktionierte schon mit #Win nicht richtig

Gerade Anfänger sollten sich in Sachen Sicherheit lieber den Distris anvertrauen als selber rumpfuschen

Shame about the deadpan narration, but this #FlexiArch system is very elegant engineering.

It is a clever new way of building pretty and durable #arch #bridges using a #flatpack system. (IKEA victims, relax: no screws or bolts involved).

FlexiArch was invented by Prof #AdrianLong of #QUB, who was also the father-in-law of #NorthernIreland's Alliance Party leader #NaomiLong ... who is herself an engineer.

Perhaps it is time that I do some more distro-hopping. Although I thoroughly enjoy using Linux Mint, this is the second time in the past week that I've wanted a more recent release of some of the software I use than what is in Mint's repositories. First, it was the latest version of LibreOffice. I was able to switch to the Flatpack version without issue. Now, I find myself wanting to use the latest release of wine to run some windows-only software that I use for my job.

@miekg Oh... I feel you are an expert there :)

My path have started from gentoo with emerge with later various distro hops, like OpenSuse Ubuntu Mint Debian, etc.

But deep dive Gentoo I liked the most, since it had the least issues with packages. The reason I've never came back there, is a compilation time.
I remember how I built KDE for more than 20 hours (Celeron 2.4 in early 2000s).

After many years in MacOS (right now it's also a primary OS, Arch is only on a big PC), it's really confusing that many things are not available without hacks.
In MacOS Homebrew made it so simple, it's hard to accept that Linux may have so many complications with a package distributions.

It looks like snap or flatpack should fix this issue, but they don't. Many things from snap don't work or do not available, flatpack the same.

Installing Homebrew in Linux does not feel right.
