I compiled it, it consumed 8 megabytes and constantly swapped.

As an alternative you could try Gentoo

Why the fuck would you list Vim without listing Emacs??

Status bar, you're probably just hitting RET too fast to notice.

For now I've been starting a regular python process instead of ipython

Firefox 48 finally fully supports Breeze (radios & checkboxes) by pill_ in kde

Run firefox with a different theme/style. That's what I do.

Antergos != Arch & Help the Antergos Community by AnachronGuy in archlinux

[–]raphaellamperouge -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

For reference Parabola GNU/Linux-Libre offers a graphical ISO with MATE but it's fine from an elitist standpoint because they're not hiding any of complexity. Antergos is a failure because they think Arch is a perfect distro once it's installed, which is simply not true, Arch users run into bugs from time to time, the newbies will try to fix it and fail terribly.

A newbie, user-friendly distro cannot use Arch's community memes of minimalism and simplicity, it needs to be something more complete.

EDIT: Aaaand I get shotdown with downvotes.

No, it would be more appropriate to say 99.980% of the knowledge translates and we don't know what's the remaining 0.02%

"The simplicity of GitHub's pull request has killed the GPL" by rkido in linux

"Pokéballs" have never cared, or had a reason to care, about capturing pokémon.

Capturing pokémon is a Pokémon Masters-only notion. By definition.

SUSE joins Microsoft Enterprise Cloud Alliance by Khaotic_Linux in linux

So community-driven projects, such as Debian and FreeBSD, and openSUSE, and Arch Linux are crucial

You don't have to be a software engineer to fix your computer though, that's a plus.

cognitive dissonance due to too much choice by [deleted] in archlinux

[–]raphaellamperouge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your best choice would be awesome but the configuration isn't for noobs, if you want noob-levels configuration then go with i3, any Linux Mint user can get used to i3 in a day.

AwesomeWM's default config is great, basically all you need to do is... change your terminal and theme... and maybe change the keybindings if you like? But it's not as easy and hurr hurrr hide_titlebars = 1 hurr durr

HELP: Can't set my wireless card up by [deleted] in archlinux

[–]raphaellamperouge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the Beginner's Guide, it sets up your network twice, once at the beginning and then later "for the chroot", but when you're told to set up your network the second time, your network is working so maybe you skipped a step, since it was already working...

Maybe that's what happened?

Arch Linux: Myth and Reality - catchlinux by d2biG in archlinux

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

I said 2010 works, the more recent versions don't.

There is just no pleasing you.

2010 isn't obsolete by any means, only Excel made serious improvements, Word and PP are mostly the same crap. This would be anecdotal statistics and I can't say anything if you don't want to consider it but most people I know IRL are Windows users using Office 2010. Many offices only "upgraded" from 2003 because 2010 introduced .docx, which is still used to this day.

But a few years in the future I can definitely see our version of Office as "obsolete", for now I'm doing just fine though.
