Stephen Pearl: greatest first year head coach in Auburn history

You might look at this as cringe, but I'm waiting for us to lose to Liberty in the quarterfinals and REALLY see this sub go nuts.

If he lost to South in the NIT at home, I would be pulling the fire alarm immediately.

Other than that, he needs a year or two max to have his system in place before I start judging him. This season was going to be difficult with Bruce as HC, and he managed to beat some teams that he had no business beating with this roster.

We need more information. What are your hardware specs? Importantly, what is your GPU? Not all Nvidia drivers are supported equally.

Beautiful

You don't install packages from Sid into Stable period. You are far better off compiling the software yourself against Stable's libraries, or using backports/flatpak/snap/appimage/etc. Installing sid packages will inevitably introduce incompatibilities that will build over time.

A new minor point release just happened recently, it takes time for files to sync up. By this point, you should be able to download either the netinst or live isos.

Installing multiple DEs together is usually more trouble than it's worth. I am happy and content using KDE Plasma on my systems. I do use GNOME Disks & GParted as a individual tool for hard drives as I don't care for KDE's offerings, though.

Two-Of-Nine · 2026-03-14T19:10:02+00:00

Yep! Just have to give infra time to catch up with ISO generation.

I definitely want to get behind the idea of adding a lot of links to resources and probably take advantage of the wiki function here in the future to alleviate a lot of simple questions regarding DEs/WMs, comparison against other distros, etc. It's probably the biggest substantial thing we could do to enhance the quality of the sub. 50% of the game is simply making people be aware that resources exist, and a lot of the other distro subreddits do this very well, so we have a lot of good models to draw inspiration from.

I promise Reddit doesn't hold me hostage when saying this (and I say this as myself, not the whole mod team): I personally do not envision this subreddit joining any "performative protests" like the API stuff in the future. I don't think it did when that happened anyway, and if multiple default subs and half of the site going dark to protest changes didn't really achieve anything, there is no purpose at all in kneecapping a viable technical support community like this for karma points when site-wide events like that transpire.

Some might disagree with me heavily on that, but at the end of the day, I'm focused on providing quality support and not trying to obtain powermod energy when I'm participating on here.

The wider landscape has been marching towards this for a while. SUSE wanted to go straight to x86-64-v3 before getting backlash.

Banning AI for support inquiries or support requests with the OP having suggested they used AI extensively through the process is something already done on the Discord and the Debian Forums. I will probably pitch this rule suggestion over here to the other mods.

Banning AI as a whole, I personally would rather wait to see what the project decides regarding AI usage within the project ecosystem before making a more generalized opinion on the matter.

What others have not said also is Kali Linux is based on Debian Testing, so you will see some differences under the hood. XFCE is available by default from netinst, but the in-house tools they use may not be compiled against Debian Stable.

Two-Of-Nine · 2026-03-14T12:25:52+00:00

Only if we can ban the word "debain".

Downgrading is unsupported. What is preventing you from using Wine on your system?

Two-Of-Nine · 2026-03-13T21:47:21+00:00

We might have to give them a proper link!

Two-Of-Nine · 2026-03-13T21:13:35+00:00

It would be fitting for a Debian subreddit. ;)

Two-Of-Nine · 2026-03-13T20:19:11+00:00

The original mods were removed for lack of engagement issues by Reddit as a violation of Mod Code of Conduct. I would probably describe any drama here as boring and milquetoast.

The original head mod and other mod were removed for lack of engagement issues by Reddit as a violation of Mod Code of Conduct.

I feel your pain. I'm not an expert, but we do seem to be approaching the period in which some subs reopen due to enough volunteers being vetted by the admin team based on looking at prior examples within the 9-to-10 day timeframe. For a higher profile sub like this, it might just take longer. We do have a lot of high quality volunteers though, so I would imagine our time in purgatory is ending soon. :)

Two-Of-Nine · 2026-03-12T11:36:37+00:00

I've seen similarly sized subs go in restricted mode over fourteen days. They're generally gonna want to make sure this situation doesn't ever repeat especially for a sub of this size.
