Wouldn’t the larger ones be the ones you’d get the most benefit from compiling?

For the uninitiated, does “gen” imply source/compilation somehow?

On 22.04 LTS, you can’t even open Firefox if you’re using NFS/Autofs home directories.

How is that not taken seriously as a major bug?

Ok I’ll bite. What’s the software you “need”?

Beeper predates this new iMessage thing by a few years. You just hadn’t heard of them apparently.

See news story from 2021:

Something doesn’t add up, or only 2/3 are true.

Cool. But will we again be able to open Firefox on an NFS/autofs home directory?

Don’t become so concerned with if you could, that you overlook if you should.

I would buy a larger drive.

I promise I’m not a troll, but I just don’t understand the appeal. That’s a crazy expensive piece of hardware to run a currently only mostly working distro.

Even when the hardware is 100% working, it’s still ARM, so anything that’s not open source won’t run because it’ll be x86_64.

Definitely a chicken and egg problem on availability of ARM software.

I’m asking in good faith - am I missing something?

The primary thing that makes FOSS popular is that you can fork it. You’re saying that people need to not do the main thing it’s designed to be able to do!

Snap is that bad when it doesnt work on network home directories, and both firefox and chromium (included in tbe distro) have been moved to snaps… So the included browsers can’t even open.

That’s the app OP is talking about ‘selling out’ to advertisers.

Can you point out the wild bugs that kernel panic the OS? I’m an admin for a large number of RHEL machines and our team has talked about switching to Stream. Would love to know more about these bugs.

This all falls apart as a “reason” when you consider Windows Home vs Windows Enterprise.

The better reason is that Windows Home sucks.

“A decade”?! Try 2

Don’t know what’s funny about that. It was originally written/tested on the Google Nexus 4.

Edit: dug up a source:

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/FAQ#On_which_devices_does_this_Developer_Preview_run.3F

“The initial development at Canonical happened to be on the mobile phones Galaxy Nexus and Nexus 4 and the tablets Nexus 7 and Nexus 10”

Production. Means “anything important”.

I think it was actually the default on 18.04 LTS as well.

Install Linux and this is the way.

Are you intentionaly using NTFS for compatibility with another machine? If not, I’d use a Linux native filesystem like xfs or ext4 and add it to /etc/fstab
