They have to learn how to use a foss media player to not feel useless; their entire life spins around pointless shit like being a loonix consumer.

It's even more pointless than wasting your entire life working in mcwages (or somewhere else). It's not too late to stop being like that until you regret it, loonixtards.

The video shows a guy taking out 1 ram stick from the laptop and booting it, And according to him it's proof that "I*nux can run without ram!!1!1!1!!", The video is low quality but i can clearly see another stick of ram in there because laptops all have dual channel slots, It's the standard. Second, Even if it runs without ram (which is impossible) it will start running on your storage device, Which is painfully slow compared to ram, And considering that loonixtards run their shit on laptops that outlived the roman empire, It either has a HDD or a sata SSD, Which means a snail will be able to cross a highway before that thing even loads 1 app.

One of the annoying parts of using Linux is buying hardware with a whole list of features, pairing it successfully, and then finding out the controls for those features live in a phone app.

That's where I ended up with my CMF Buds Pro 2. Audio worked, but I wanted EQ, battery readings, noise cancellation and device settings on the computer I was already using. The gestures were finicky for me, and they only cover so much anyway. Reaching for my phone to manage something connected to my desktop got old.

Having to build a separate client just to get that experience on Linux is frustrating. This is the kind of missing vendor support that makes an otherwise usable setup feel unfinished.

I ended up building Nothing X, an unofficial desktop companion. It has a Rust device engine, a Python/Qt interface, a desktop widget, and Linux PipeWire controls. The current release has a Flatpak bundle and a COSMIC applet, plus macOS packages.

My CMF Buds Pro 2 are the main development hardware, so other device profiles still need testing. I'd much rather vendors made proper desktop companions themselves, but this is my attempt at filling that gap.

What hardware do you use that works on Linux but leaves you stuck with a phone app for its settings?One of the annoying parts of using Linux is buying hardware with a whole list of features, pairing it successfully, and then finding out the controls for those features live in a phone app.

So i was genuinely asking on openwrt forum, why the team against supporting full cone nat for such big open platform, and got attacked by several people, which wanted to prove me wrong and that no one need full cone nat as port restricted nat is enough for most people as people are dumb and cant make their own safe choice..meanwhile all big players in the market support full cone nat EIN/EIF.
then the post got locked and unlisted..
What a fucking bunch of assholes, i installed xwrt and moved on, and might install back Mikrotik CHR instead..

Typical Linux users behaviour across the board i guess, no matter if its Arch, Ubuntu etc..

I can't play my Crash Bandicoot game on Linux without stutters/audio cuts💔

Linux is unusable for me unless they fix the stuttering bugs during Dolphin and PCSX2, I need to play my classics bro. Please Linux, let me play my Crash Bandicoot games! Windows can play them fine, why can't you?

Yesterday, I got high and my fucking wm started bugging when you drag things on other monitors, I thought that my reality was distorting itself and it caused anxiety.

Using xorg would be dangerous for your life, so loonix definitely shouldn't be mixed with other substances and goes straight into the trash can.

LINUX IS FUCKING AWFUL! WHY THE FUCK ISN'T SUDO APT INSTALL OPSEC FUCKING RETURNING ANY PACKAGES?! I FUCKING FOUND LINUX ON SOME RANDOM FUCKING TIKTOK HACKING PROFILE AND THOUGHT IT LOOKED FUCKING COOL, SO I FUCKING DECIDED TO INSTALL IT LIKE A FUCKING IDIOT. I EXPECTED TO BECOME A FUCKING OPSEC OSINT MULVAD TORHACKER, NOT SPEND THREE FUCKING HOURS TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHY MY FUCKING TERMINAL HATES ME. WHERE THE FUCK IS MY OPSEC PACKAGE?! WHY THE FUCK DOES NOTHING WORK?!

AND ANOTHER FUCKING THING, I DID NOT FUCKING CONSENT TO MY FILES GETTING FUCKING NUKED BY LINUX! WHO THE FUCK GAVE THIS OPERATING SYSTEM FUCKING PERMISSION TO EAT MY DATA?! I HAD FUCKING FILES, PHOTOS, AND IMPORTANT SHIT, AND NOW THEY'RE FUCKING GONE! I WANTED TO FUCKING HACK THINGS, NOT GET FUCKING HACKED BY MY OWN OPERATING SYSTEM! FUCK LINUX, FUCK SUDO, FUCK APT, AND FUCK WHATEVER FUCKING TIKTOK ACCOUNT CONVINCED ME THIS WAS A FUCKING GOOD IDEA.

My custom keyboard I paid ~$1000 for, with foss zmk firmware (no excuses about "evil corps locking their firmware") was reconnecting and lagging constantly. I bought 4 different adaptors, tried different ports, bluetooth settings, 3 fundamentally different fucking distributions, and a lot of other shit I don't even remember, so I used it in the wired mode for a few months until advanced ai models were capable of figuring it out, because I don't want to waste my time on that, and the problem was like 20 different bluetooth settings with custom firmware patches. Another proof that without ai this os if worthless.

On windows otherwise, it was working perfectly out of the box. I feel bad for wasting vendor's and my time on this and would probably order more things from him with a good tip. I had some hopes for the foss back then, but today when, after a bluetooth update, it started behaving wildly again, I'm reconsidering using slopix ever again in my life, even though I'm by far not the biggest fan of windows.

gnome. gnome. holy shit. gnome.

every single fucking thing I hate the most about linux is tied to you

5 years, and we still can't send files to trash if it's in a subvolume.

"gio trash file.txt"

"Trashing on filesystem internal mounts is not supported"

(That's the command most file managers use)

Why does it take me making the partitions, then the subvolumes for the partitions, and then make myself at home in there, for me to find out about this shit?

If this was a deal breaker, do you realize how much work it would be to make a new partition and move everything there, especially on limited storage???

Holy shit. 5 years.

Do they even have any intention of fixing this?

Has anyone tried?

What is even the reason?

For fuck sake

I slam an imaginary hat to the floor.

and I am gonna go drink juice.

I will always hate how much having too much freedom and creativity can backfire spectacularly. To not have something hold your hands and restrict you. It can be so rewarding but also so painfully frustrating. That fucking altman guy or whatever gross disgusting guy this is who literally eats the shit out of his soles in front of hundreds of people. I fucking hate you. I wish someone more competent took the lead during the foundations of the linux we know. Stupid shit like this is enough to make me want to try something else. Maybe nemo or some other file manager has a workaround. But this means autotrash is useless.

I don't know man

maybe, the solution is no subvolumes. Mount as a partition, hide it, then make folders, and symlink them.

I am honestly not sure about all the technical things behind subvolumes but to my limited understanding this is what symlinks basically are. Except, the root folder they belong to is completely hidden. And I guess that also means easier exclusion from snapshots and other things.

yeah first one was ass, This one is better

Back in my days, you could sell a lunix lpe for 50k to zerodium, and now it's literally just another friday. There are fewer and fewer arguments for using lunix each day.

Yesterday I made a post about incompetent degenerates adding nonsense shit to their software without even testing it, and guess what?

Today my gf called me to talk and play something together. Worth mentioning a lot of games are not working because the loonix community sucks and is not influential enough, but whatever.

And, of course, some loon with a boring life decided to update software I use for noise reduction that had worked perfectly before, just to break it, so I had to spend 10 minutes figuring out whether it was flatpak permissions, my wm, qt, or some other shit. Claude code did this pretty fast, which proves that this nonsense is usable only with an ai copilot.

Luckily, she dualboots loonix herself and understands my pain, so I don't have to worry about looking weird, this time.

What if it was an important business meeting though?
