you have a choice between fish bones & animal bones!
@nixCraft That's why I converted my OS FS from ext4 to BTRFS
@thelinuxEXP about Gnome font, did you mean the Arabic
الشّدّة؟
(the letter
س
Over the letter
ش)
If this is the case the Gnome was really a bad choice, it made Arabic-writing people like Egyptians run away from Linux, even though Gnome isn't the only choice, KDE exists too
I think I also read that XFCE supports Wayland too, this should be on your next weekly podcast since it is a very big of a deal for minimalists
@DarkHououmon @x4740N that would be what I do but me & my brother's GigaByte laptops don't support dual boots so I needed to install Linux on bare metal since the first time buying them
@nixCraft you all cover your webcams?
Extremely happy because I converted my ext4 EOS to BTRFS
PS: no guide worked on the internet
Heads up: Do Not Upgrade to Any Version of MySQL After 8.0.37. If you create a certain number of tables, #MySQL will crash on restart 😓 https://www.percona.com/blog/do-not-upgrade-to-any-version-of-mysql-after-8-0-37/
Do Not Upgrade to Any Version of MySQL After 8.0.37

Recently, Jean-François Gagné opened a bug on bug.mysql.com #115517; unfortunately, the bug is now private. However, the bug looks quite serious.

Strategic Finance and Ops Associate: part-time (m/f/d)

We're looking for a part-time English- and German speaking Strategic Finance & Ops Associate to join our remote-first team to maintain Mastodon's financial health and operational efficiency.

@thelinuxEXP for me, the only "tinfoil hat" about package managers is the easiness, that's all, for me, it's more intuitive to $yay -S <packages> than doing any other way, also I don't recommend flatpaks for users who have difficulties freeing some space, also flatpaks & snaps if you don't know how to modify permissions for example (...etc), you gonna have a hard time getting things done
also I love copy pasting, and most of online guides show codes to install with yay or pacman in my case
