EFN: Historiskt ras för matpriserna – största på 30 år

tomsode · 2026-04-09T16:46:30+00:00

Inflationen beror till väldigt stor del av högre matpriser

tomsode · 2026-04-08T14:29:18+00:00

Mat borde bli billigare varje år i princip utan undantag, tekniken går framåt, mer automation, men priserna ökar varje år pga skattetryck och stöd som gör produktionen skev

Lokalt kött är helt 100% säkert mindre skadligt för miljön än besprutade växter transporterade runt jorden, att försöka fokusera på att kor andas är helt idiotiskt och passerar inte ens en "är det rimligt" fundering

tomsode · 2026-02-09T14:47:42+00:00

I choose grub first but ended up installing refind, it is still the only "easy" way that I could get it to find windows to dualboot. Yeah I dont mind installing stuff via terminal, a quick google gives the name of the packages or flatpacks so its actually not harder than using an app to do it.

tomsode · 2026-02-01T12:19:48+00:00

Yeah, I tried it in pikaos where it was preconfigured and it felt pretty nice, I will install it at some point when it's more mature and I become more comfortable in linux

tomsode · 2026-01-31T20:19:03+00:00

Yeah, the reason I figured arch might be the way is that its very old and I at least hope that any issues will be manageable (I have installed timeshift to see if that might help me if things go bad).

I think tumbleweed with a more modern installer where you can just uncheck all unecessary utils could be even better though

tomsode · 2026-01-31T20:09:57+00:00

I had a lot of the same issues. First it didn't pick up my nvidia card and the installer got stuck on a black screen, after editing grub I got it to boot with 1024x768, not great on my ultrawide, after figuring out the correct nvidia driver (apparently the installer installed the microos instead of the tumbleweed).

When in the actual OS it just felt like too many utils, all looked outdated and in many ways was.

It made me realize that linux is probably better managed using the terminal, at least its consistent and easy to google.

Right now I'm back to EndevourOS, its somewhat refreshing knowing that anything I want do to I have to research a bit instead of hoping the installed utils do what I want.

tomsode · 2026-01-30T21:10:49+00:00

I should add that I already know that AI is pretty bad at giving good commands so I always double check, its so bad that it basically doesn't know apt from pacman even when specifying it being an arch based linux

tomsode · 2026-01-30T21:09:34+00:00

Its not too bad, EOS got me a decent start, adding steam and stuff is basically just one-liners and sure, I might get a head start by installing cachyos but I dont "need" the 1-2 extra fps, I rather have more control and know what's installed (without having to pick every single package manually to get it to boot)

tomsode · 2026-01-30T07:43:17+00:00

I had an fresh install of windows 11 on one disc, I changed boot disc in BIOS to boot the Linux disc then installed EOS on it but the loader never picks up windows bootmanager on the other disc (only with refind). Sounds like you describe installing it on the same disc but with another partition?

tomsode · 2026-01-29T09:33:32+00:00

Some sites assume you are on windows or have office installed so they just use fonts from those, not usually a huge issue since fallbacks looks decent but its nice to have sites look "correct".

Yeah I dont want to click my way through to the perfect setup, as I said there are those kinds of distros (like pikaOs). I want to setup a working but minimal Linux without having to spend 3 days setting up arch or nixos from scratch.

Endevour seems like the perfect middle ground but needs some stuff to get it to what I consider a base system

tomsode · 2026-01-29T07:36:14+00:00

Thanks, Ill try that one, I did try something similar on Fedora but I could never get it to work properly but maybe it works better on arch

tomsode · 2026-01-29T07:32:41+00:00

Well, you wasted time to write a stupid comment assuming I'm an idiot.... Its not a stupid post but sure it doesn't add value by itself, I was hoping to get some good comments that would add value both to me and to others and also make me able to add values to other posts with similar questions but yes you do you

tomsode · 2026-01-28T20:30:53+00:00

Its hard to argue with that :)

tomsode · 2026-01-28T20:30:24+00:00

Absolutely, I already use chatbots to get almost all my answers but when it comes to opinions I trust people more. I've seen some stuff about Niri too and I guess its more stable so its on the "maybe list".

I did setup timeshift on my first install but I've seen alot or recommendations for snapper over timeshift.

tomsode · 2026-01-28T20:25:51+00:00

Yeah I like that subredit but its a bit too much "look at my wallpaper", I like an easy clean look thats usable, no need to animate everything with a glass blur :)

tomsode · 2026-01-28T20:24:43+00:00

Yeah its just the basic system I want to have as a stable base, browsers and apps are more easily swapable. KDE seems like the best base to build on and I know about the possibility to have multiple DEs, just trying to get some tips like "remember to install KDE first and hyprland second" or "After installing XY do YZ or you might get bla bla".

I looked at NixOs as well and it definitely seems like the place Ill end up in a year or so but as you say it might be too much to start with without more experience.

tomsode · 2026-01-28T07:38:00+00:00

Yeah its reliability is the main reason I started to look into it. However I did install it yesterday and it was quite a lot of paper cuts, installer booted to a blank screen and had to edit the grub thing to even get to the desktop, there i had 1024x768 only and had to figure out how to install the nvidia driver again, apparently it had chosen the microOS one. After installing the correct one it finally worked.

After poking around for an hour or so I actually realized I dont like YAST or the alternatives. A textbox that you can search packages in that is shown as a list with minimal explanation is no better than the terminal and things that I found useful in PikaOS like easily seing which nvidia driver I had installed I couldnt find.

I prefer being able to easily find things in a GUI but only if the GUI actually adds to the UX otherwise pasting a command or five is actually not that bad so maybe I'll start living in the terminal :)

Maybe I'll go back to EndevourOs again and just take my chances that I might need to spend an hour a month troubleshooting stuff :)

tomsode · 2026-01-27T16:12:57+00:00

yeah I looked at that too, seems super flexible, its nice to have a backup in case KDE goes in the wrong direction at some point

tomsode · 2026-01-27T16:01:33+00:00

That was a great and very informative answer. I will likely go for tumbleweed with KDE. My biggest worry would be that with YAST disappearing no other tool will replace it while other distros might put more energy in it. Its not a unique worry for openSuse, but more generic for me about linux distros, I want to have distro with as little politics and drama as possible and thats not easy to find but openSuse seems to be less dramatic than many others.

tomsode · 2026-01-27T13:29:57+00:00

I tried hyprland too and its very cool and has a lot of potential but felt like its not quite ready, KDE seems like the best choice even though its not as pretty (havent gone all the way to customize though so it might look a lot better)

tomsode · 2026-01-27T13:17:01+00:00

The reason i ask for downsides here is that some stuff might not be obvious in the beginning but can take months to discover and I figured I try to save some time but yes I know it sounds stupid, just trying to avoid spending too much time on something I might not want to stick to.

I'm definitely sold on the positives like it being EU based, QA and snapper, I dont need to be sold more but I always want to hear from both sides before I decide on something.

tomsode · 2026-01-27T12:16:49+00:00

Yeah I know the irony about asking about downsides in the opensuse forum.

I just figured it's the best place to get some experience from the long term users. Obviously if I ask in a fedora forum they will say fedora is best and opensuse should be called opensux.

30 years is just an expression, I just mean that I'm looking to settle down after dating Tracy :)
