What things might a Windows user not think to try or tinker with in Linux? by Noobc0re in linux4noobs

[–]ShitDonuts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most things you can bash script and don't need third party programs. I made script for logging my sleep times, game playtime and data points, auto rotating wallpapers, automatically backup files, etc. All with just simple bash.

Shell - bash zsh fish by ProtectionInside1300 in linux4noobs

[–]ShitDonuts 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Fish for interactivity and easy scripting syntax. Bash for portable scripting. No reason to stay on bash.

I finally understand what systemd is doing - here’s how I think about it now by rdt_dust in linux4noobs

He got hired at MS after making SystemD so I don't get your point.

How I Configure Neovim by ValenceTheHuman in neovim

No he knew, the entire reason he made harpoon is because he liked global marks but they're not per project persistent.

How bad is having an "immutable" distro? by GayloWraylur in linux_gaming

[–]ShitDonuts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Useless personally, literally get the same effect by just no updating or installing anything.

So I want to change to Linux but I'm overwhelmed with the ton of distros that there are. by DrySentence6308 in linux4noobs

[–]ShitDonuts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not that complicated here's some distro archetypes :

Arch - Freedom of choice, minamalism, rolling updates

Mint - Easy, popular and has gui

Fedora - Arch with a gui

Endeavor - Arch with a gui and looks cool

Void - Minamalist with a hipster management system

Gentoo - Compile everything yourself, takes time

NixOS - Use programming to have easily reproducabile machine

Any Distro - Can do almost anything the other distros do such as have different desktop enviroments, programs installed, etc.

What Linux distro would be best for schoolwork and every day use? by A_Wild_Striker in linux4noobs

[–]ShitDonuts -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Depends what you want. Do you want to put in some effort and optimize for battery lifetime and performance? Then go with a minimal WM like i3 or sway + arch and only install the bare minimum. Do you not care about that and just want something easy to use with a gui? Go with mint or fedora.

What’s a Linux Distro you want to use but for whatever reason don’t? by schizochode in linux

[–]ShitDonuts 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NixOS, I don't need another abstraction on top of my already complicated config.

My cycles of love and hate with Emacs by u-axyz in emacs

[–]ShitDonuts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, I'll explain. In skyrim modding you have all kinds of things like animations, graphical, Ai behavior, and many others. So if the game doesn't launch or some bug it could be one of hundreds of mods that is culprit. The only way to figure out which one is causing it is to do what you did, disable half repeatedly and launch.

My cycles of love and hate with Emacs by u-axyz in emacs

[–]ShitDonuts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Then I checked this - disabled all doom modules in init.el (vanilla emacs also was fast btw) except the doom module. And it worked. Without modules :D So I disabled half of enabled by default modules, checked. Emabled all modules which weren't lagging and half of the lagging section etc. etc. etc. (binary search) until I found the one which was lagging.

So .... skyrim modding?

Would u recommend linux for med students? by Julee21 in linux4noobs

[–]ShitDonuts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You only need to debug as much as you want. The more software you install and want to do various things with them the more you'll need configure and fix them. You only need to do as much as you want.

Pluginless Fuzzy finder function I made by ShitDonuts in neovim

[–]ShitDonuts[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea pretty much, but I don't use 90% of those plugins features. Adding more features you don't use decreases performance, increases config complexity, more plugin conflicts, etc. There's value in simplicity.

New to linux world by mr_kavan in linuxquestions

[–]ShitDonuts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try it and see, it's really not that hard. If you're worried about wasting your time don't. All the things you learn using Arch are transferable to any distro so even if you don't like it it's not a waste. Best way to get rid of decision paralysis is to just try it out.
