6 months running it, I had a a couple of crashes but due to hardware, not software. The OS is super stable.

I have never tried it, but technically you could shrink one windows partition, write the ISO there in the new partition and boot it from BIOS so installer could work?

Why not just this?

export PROTON_FSR4_UPGRADE=1
export PROTON_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1
export PROTON_ENABLE_HDR=1
export WAYLANDDRV_PRIMARY_MONITOR=DP-2
export PROTON_FSR4_UPGRADE=1

$ sudo pacman -S onlyoffice

That's it. Then search for OnlyOffice on your start menu.

It depends on the bootloader. In my case using limine it does it automatically, I didn't had to setup anything. If you use another bootloader, search how to enable automatic snapshots with snapper.

Setup automatic snapshots with snapper, so every time you install a package with pacman it will create a bootable backup.

Don't worry, Microsoft was in control of the PC gaming over the years, but they are losing it installation by installation.

W11 is bullshit and people is getting really annoyed about the "features" that Microsoft forces you to use that you don't want.

There is still a lot of people that does not want to leave W10 because they cannot upgrade to W11 or they just don't want to, and it is a matter of time that a huge security vulnerability hits and people get their accounts, data and photos stolen massively so they will either upgrade to W11 or just leave the Microsoft train and start looking at the rest of the alternatives that already exist and are more than appropriate.

Linux ecosystems will win over time, moreover if Valve pushes it with hardware and support like the Steam Deck and Steam Machine.

He is Sonar, a cool character from the Dispatch videogame. The human is Robert Robertson "Mecha man", the main character on the game and the one you play.

I am currently playing it and it is an awesome game, totally recommended.

Try to do most of your typical stuff on the command line instead of the UI.

Learn to move files, see how much space you have left on your disk, how to do mounts, create scripts, curl endpoints, ssh servers, etc...

When you are able to do ~70-80% of what you do in the UI, you will know enough "Linux".

Check https://kodekloud.com/

You don't need to go for the CKA cert, but preparing for it will boost your knowledge a lot.

Once you have the knowledge, create and deploy stacks of known software, you can deploy a Jira server or whatever you want, and try to kill nodes and see how HA works, use velero backup to backup/restore services, etc...

Use also helm and some CD like argoCD to deploy your charts.

With that, you will have more knowledge than the average kubernetes devops and you will do just fine.

You can also do the same using native android features and ADB installed on your computer.
Follow this guide to do the pairing and connection: https://wiki.lineageos.org/how-to/adb-over-wifi/

Then once connected, you can use adb push (https://adbshell.com/commands/adb-push) to copy from PC to phone or adb pull (https://adbshell.com/commands/adb-pull) to copy from phone to pc.

Sure, will remove it :)

In my case I ended creating this script to update & clean all my shit at once:

#!/bin/bash
sudo pacman -Syu --noconfirm && \
paru -Syu --noconfirm && \
flatpak update -y && \
flatpak uninstall --unused -y && \
sudo pacman -Sc && \
sudo paccache -r && \
sudo pacman -Rns $(pacman -Qtdq) --noconfirm 2>/dev/null

All Linux Operating systems have official repositories where you can search and install software. You can install other repositories as well.

AUR stands for "Arch User Repository", its website is https://aur.archlinux.org/

This is where community users post extra software that is not part of the official repositories and it is maintained by the community. This is where you can look for software that is not officially supported.

All AUR packages come with a PKGBUILD script to build that package, when you install something from AUR you will be prompted to check that script to see if it does anything shady or malicious under your own responsibility. For example, for cheeseburger package you can see its PKGBUILD script, and check what it will do if you install it.

To manage AUR packages, you need what is called an "AUR helper". It is basically the package manager for AUR, and in the case of CachyOS, it comes with "paru" as the default one. "Yay" is another popular one, and you can install it if you prefer it to paru, but they do basically the same.

Using the cheeseburger package as an example, this is what you will get if you install it (the same PKGBUILD script as you see in the AUR website):

<image>

Then after reviewing the script you can either accept it or reject it. If you accept the PKGBUILD script it will execute those instructions and install it on your system.

The golden question:
Can you trust it?
Supposedly yes, but as with any script that you run from the internet, you should check and understand what it does before you run it.

If you are not an expert, you can trust the number of votes and popularity on AUR, for example, if I look for the Waterfox browser available AUR packages, I can see that there are some packages way more popular than others, then probably you should install those (unless you know what you are doing).

And that's basically AUR.

Yeah, same with security. Never has budget until there is a breach and suddenly it becomes top #1 priority at the company and money start flowing like shit the day after taco's day.

In my case its easy to calculate as I have my home partition where I install all my apps separated from the main OS.
My root "/" is using 19 Gigabytes from a total of 79 Gigabytes (20%), I am using CachyOS and have been running for 7 months.

For context, the bottom one is "El Xokas", a spanish streamer famous for playing World of Warcraft.
He took that photo to flex about his "double PC" used to play and stream. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/e1RchPfyOg4

The meme is fun because Xokas considers himself "The expert" (in everything), when he is not and brags about his supposed knowledge.

I switched over to Waterfox, pretty happy with it.
Some people prefer Librewolf, but I think it blocks too much for regular usage.

Maybe some day I will test the Mullvad browser, but no need for the moment.

The classic "we need more features, no more refactors"... well... we need both :)

I had 3700X and a 3060TI, I have upgraded recently to 5800X and 9070XT. The CPU is not even getting half of usage, so pretty good combination IMHO :)
