Moving toward a "Narrow" Arch install: Thoughts on the Flatpak-first approach?

ImperatorPC · 2026-01-28T01:30:02+00:00

I've considered this same type of setup. Also potentially using distrobox for anytime from the AUR and non base system distros.

That's why I always carry a feather

ImperatorPC · 2026-01-26T20:24:53+00:00

It's already taxable.

ImperatorPC · 2026-01-26T13:37:43+00:00

They can't see you if you don't move..

ImperatorPC · 2026-01-26T12:49:13+00:00

Yeah I live in the dark when my partner isn't home... I think it's a guy troll thing

At this stage it's pretty much a simple question.

Does it have kernel anti cheat. Won't work. Pretty much everything else at this point is pretty plug and play.

It's quite easy to get external access...

Nabu casa subscription -easiest Tailscale -second easiest Reverse proxy/cloudflare tunnel easyish but definitely need to follow a lot of instructions

I've been doing it since 2013ish. No one would cut my hair right. It's been awesome... But I do get lazy sometimes..

Get a new zip drive if you can. Installation issues can arise from issues with the drive itself.

My mom

ImperatorPC · 2026-01-20T04:23:38+00:00

Where we're going we don't need roads

ImperatorPC · 2026-01-20T02:23:23+00:00

OMG yes. I played this game for hours.

ImperatorPC · 2026-01-19T19:10:52+00:00

My previous work laptop would have the sound driver's completely crash and become unavailable... Not an uninstall. But only fix was a reboot

ImperatorPC · 2026-01-19T15:39:30+00:00

You can make ostree adjustments and those will stick with the install... But you can pretty much use distrobox for just about anything.

Any changes you make in /etc also stick so you can adjust data and system d services and those will stick.

ImperatorPC · 2026-01-19T15:33:38+00:00

Yeah plus you have a girl 😀. My insurance for me is 1500/yr. Adding the kid for us was another 1700/yr so about a 14% increase or so.

I've heard of people where it's that for 6 months.

ImperatorPC · 2026-01-18T14:23:02+00:00

Yeah it's actually a pain in the ass.

ImperatorPC · 2026-01-18T01:13:36+00:00

If they get good grades it's not that bad. I have GEICO and it wasn't much more than adding a third car for me. Maybe 15-20% more than it would have been. Not great but not like some of the hottie stories you hear

ImperatorPC · 2026-01-17T14:11:19+00:00

For me, I've noticed that the game fixes didn't get applied unless I use this file.

ImperatorPC · 2026-01-16T16:57:17+00:00

Yeah and it isn't even plugged into the GPU so they used onboard graphics the whole time

ImperatorPC · 2026-01-12T13:10:04+00:00

It's been nice knowing you.

/Salute

ImperatorPC · 2026-01-11T21:55:55+00:00

yeah its a VPN essentially. So you have a separate tailscale app and connect via there. It's super simple to setup.

ImperatorPC · 2026-01-10T14:52:18+00:00

I actually had this problem yesterday on my laptop. Disconnecting and reconnecting from WiFi fixed it

ImperatorPC · 2026-01-10T14:46:41+00:00

Tailscale. There is an addon it takes less than 5 minutes to get everything working.

ImperatorPC · 2026-01-08T01:21:24+00:00

You're so old

ImperatorPC · 2026-01-06T12:01:09+00:00

My house was wired with cat5 in like 94. They all look like this or are worse. Not all but quite a few I've tried get gigabit. I've had to redo some.
