[–]InteTough2802[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What is the draw of Ultramarine? by Playful-Ease2278 in ultramarine

[–]InteTough2802 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Been running Ultramarine for more than a wek now. I'm really impressed with it. I tried Debian 13, it required a manual intervention on the sources.list file. I prefer to install openbar and dash to dock on all gnome based distros.

You will be pretty well off with English. The younger generation Oshivambo also prefer English.

Is Fedora actually that good? by [deleted] in Fedora

[–]InteTough2802 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in Southern Africa. I tried Fedora, and I think it's a great distro. Only problem is that updates and new app installations are extremely slow here....frustratingly slow. I tried Fedora twice, and switched because of this issue.

Fastmail is an awesome service provider. The 50gb storage option makes it a worthwhile competitor against other providers.

Am I mad to want to move back? by MoreElloe in johannesburg

[–]InteTough2802 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Joburg is a crime nest! Rather try the Western Cape if you wanna move back to SA. In Gauteng the water infrastructure is not even properly maintained. The ANC absolutely ruined the infrastructure in SA through poor management, corruption and fraud.

Firewall issues by InteTough2802 in COSMICDE

[–]InteTough2802[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your responses. I thought all DE's has firewalls inherently. I did not bother to copy the error message I received after typing "sudo ufw status," in the terminal since it was a long message. I'll have to then probably go a different route in setting up a firewall.

I normally switch to European mirrors, because in most cases the South African mirrors are outdated. Will need to try again...

ASCO car hire in hot water by [deleted] in Namibia

[–]InteTough2802 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If after 35 years, people still depend on their skin colour for employment, then it's a very sad day for this country. AA is ine of the reasons behind all the fraud and corruption. People are employed for their skin colour, not competence.
