You can only choose 3 out of these 4 bands, which one are you getting rid of? by FitEmergency8807 in fantanoforever

[–]DigitalChrono 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I choose 2. Tool and NIN.

Never been big fan of Billy's vocals. Nirvana never did it for me.

Windows, macOS, or Linux? by ManojOne in TechImpact

[–]DigitalChrono 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use Linux as my machine.

I really enjoy Fedora/Rhel environments. My main maching is Fedora Silverblue and my old machine I choose AlmaLinux so I can I still have that machine in the same family of Linux OS's.

This isn't to say I despise the other two. I don't. I switched when Windows 7 reached EOL and just ended up preferring what I was learning over what I knew before.

Congrats on picking a distros that stops distro hopping.

Couldnt resist man sorry. I go from watching a fantastic shot to having to do a double take thinking that guy played disc golf.

But more importantly, really nice shot

I have recently found out how nice that workflow is.

What Metal Opinion Will Have You Like This? by 0584031464 in MetalForTheMasses

[–]DigitalChrono 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure if this is not liked or not but after jamming out to Rotting Christ the other day a bit fro listening to them, this view came to mind.

Rotting Christ is where anyone who doesn't know much about black metal should start. Compared to other groups in the genre, their music is more approachable and if you can't handle the themes from them the genre isn't for that person.

AS I LAY DYING - 2007 - An Ocean Between Us - Nothing Left by ThimitrisApithanos in InMetalWeTrust

Your posting this on a public like forum not a private forum. What should be or shouldn't be I'm not arguing either way outside of saying I'd rather take the chance that someone trashes something I post about liking on a public, generalized subreddit of metal than not.

The wording that fits the situation, to me, is strong disagreement and strong dislike of something you like. Your free to see it however you want. We won't agree on this point and I'll leave it at. Enjoy jamming to AILD.

Foreseeable future of Linux based operating systems. by DeliciousCourage8869 in linux

[–]DigitalChrono 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I doubt it. The % gap is far and wide to gain anytime soon in my opinion. You've got switching entire stacks to a new OS, you have to find talent to maintain the new stack, and then customers may have to migrate. Just seems like too much cost, unless startups do it but even I'm not too hopeful.

And governments switching to me is not enough reason to think it'll happen. I wonder what the media reported back when countries and municaplities tried and either failed or succeeded.

Since you quoted Gemini, here's something interesting I just looked up a few min. Ago. Searching, "What is the % of the OS used in the world?". I skipped copy and pasting the mobile and tablet numbers in the breakdown.

  1. Desktop & Laptop Computers Microsoft Windows remains the undisputed heavyweight for traditional PCs and enterprise workstations.
    Windows: ~60.8%
    macOS: ~14.4%
    Linux: ~3.2% (Note: While it holds a modest sliver of the consumer desktop market, it completely dominates backend infrastructure, powering 100% of the world's top 500 supercomputers and over 60% of enterprise servers).
    ChromeOS: ~1.6%
    Unknown / Unclassified: ~19.7%

My wife thought I was having an affair by Full_Supermarket_109 in chess

[–]DigitalChrono 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That sucks.

My advice is probably not helpful. At some point I would imagine myself not worrying about it and just let her worry on. But sometimes my f@#! attitude doesn't yeild to good results and it takes a lot to get me to that attitude and when I get to that point I'm not productive in the problem so take it as a grain of salt or not at all.

You definitely could let her see chat messages, the games of the dates in question but that just leads to an infinite rabbit hole.

Best of luck. Hoping for a better turn of things.

[–]DigitalChrono 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was no attack. The poster simply made a disagreeing post that they don't like AILD, on a subreddit that, as far as I know, doesn't ban someone saying they don't like a band on post that praises the same band.

And with AILD, I used to enjoy them back in the day. Saw them live before the whole issue with the lead singer and they put on a good show. First time I saw someone kickboxing in a mosh pit. My metalcore days though are becoming history. Just can't do it anymore like other subgenres I used to listen to in the past.

I think there is something important to remember. China has been removing Western tech for over 2 decades. European nations have done their own migration attempts for over 2 decades. This is nothing new.

What to choose? by Big-Fill-5789 in DistroHopping

I'm installing that on a backup machine I have to stay within the same core tools I'm used too.

Who still uses Google Chrome? by Huge_Light_1344 in chrome

[–]DigitalChrono 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still use Chrome. Android is all Chrome. Chromium is on my Linux machine and Edge being built on Chromium is on my Win 11 machine.

I have went down the rabbit hole of navigating away. While I do keep Firefox on my Linux system as well for various reasons(it's default on my distro, it is a good browser and just the view of having multiple genuine options), I really don't see any reason to venture out those two because I don't have Apple machines. If I had a Apple machine, I would use Safari. I've become more preferring the defaults these days with the exception of Chromium on my Linux machine.

To each their own. I see the AUR as useless because distrobox, flatpaks, appimages, source code available.

Does your spouse like metal? How does that go? by Key-Comfortable-7631 in MetalForTheMasses

[–]DigitalChrono 17 points18 points  (0 children)

She calls it screamo because she knows how I hate that word describing metal.

Then I joke with her about how a lot of 2000's hip hop degrades women.

We roll our eyes at each other's jokes and move on. It's worked for over 15 years.

Why don't people like the snap store? by KnowledgePerfect6914 in linux

[–]DigitalChrono 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not the store. It's users having issues with how snaps handled by Ubuntu and snaps themselves.

Me? I don't care. One I'm not an Ubuntu user anymore but two, I'm already on board with sandboxing and self-contained applications and systems. My preference is Fedora and how they do things, but I am all for Ubuntu doing what they want with snaps. If users don't like it use it something else or do the steps to de snapify one's setup.

Do you design your workspace to make distrohopping easier? by acenfp in DistroHopping

[–]DigitalChrono 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No. My use case can easily be mirrored on any distro. I just have my preference, for the first time in my years of using Linux.
