I was hit by (what I assume is) a recent catastrophic Mesa update on openSUSE Tumbleweed. I’m mostly fine, experiencing some issues with cursors and the Yast window is all black. It’s also affecting Wine and some installers are broken. Now I’m just waiting for Mesa to update since I’m mostly fine and nothing critical is broken for me. I think this is the first actually major issue I’ve had on openSUSE.
If you want Debian with more frequent updates, consider going Debian sid. Base Debian is also fine, maybe with Flatpaks for more up-to-date applications where needed.
Oh man. I’m so sorry for your loss. May your system break at some vague point in the future in a way that is nigh impossible to diagnose and that no one else seems to have experienced. Godspeed, you unwillingly content penguin!
Just go with Debian.
You can install it on any machine. It’s just a terminal IRC client. I run it on a small home server with screen so that it’s always on.
I run irssi on a Raspberry Pi. It has everything I need.
They were, but as I understand they are once again independent. I’d still rather stick with Librewolf, but I’m glad there are options.
The last time I remember Firefox having serious memory leaks they called it Firebird. Guess I’ve been lucky. Or in a comfortable ignorant haze.
Some time ago I also bought a PS5 and I regret it. It is absolutely not worth the hassle. Any benefits console gaming had are long gone.
Idiots.
First it was Amarok, then Clementine, and now it’s Strawberry.
You don’t actually have to pay Amazon anything. I suggest you consider this.
I’m happy you’re having fun computing and all, but I’m going to be that guy: It’s rite of passage.
The first time I installed Debian on my desktop I didn’t do my homework properly. This was a long time ago. It didn’t take long for me to realize just how out of date many packages were and that was a deal breaker. I have since used Debian successfully in different contexts, because I knew what to expect. I still wouldn’t install Debian stable on my desktop because I prefer to have a more up to date environment. Might try Debian sid one of these days though. But yeah, Debian, great distro, but you need to know what you’re getting in to.
Happens about once a year. It doesn’t last long, so I just kind of savor the feeling.
Oh that’s funny. Cheers for that!
Some things will never be ok. Some things you don’t ever want to be ok with. But this too shall pass.
Thanks for asking, but I don’t have an easy answer to that one.
I’m on Tumbleweed and there are issues. As I understand, Slowroll is unaffected, though I can’t guarantee that.
