As if I needed more reasons to start away from python

Wednesday already?

Is neovim separate from vim development?

I think it defaults to Japanese every time in my experience

Oh. I studied under a Gujarat board school. We had mint in our computer labs and textbooks 8 years ago. Idk what they’re now

No. What prompted such a random guess?

Thanks for acknowledging it.

Also another thing you are wrong about: You may be surprised to know that the second hand market for computer electronics is non-existent. As far as I know, there are only a handful of cities in the whole country where there is a second hand local market. Cheap electronics don’t last that much and in laptops there are only so many components you can buy separately and install. (Overwhelming majority of the computers are laptops, not the traditional CPU towers)

Also another thing I failed to mention is, the government tried to make a distro for govt use at one point but idk if anything came out of that. But I want to say there’s definitely a growing presence of linux here

Ok as an Indian allow me to interject. The reason people use linux is not because of poverty. Even the cheapest laptops come preloaded with activated windows.

We get introduced to Linux based OSs in schools. That plus people are heavily pushed into engineering and lately computer science and software engineering.

Pfffft why wouldn’t you?

CC BY-NC-SA 4.0

What is it on New year’s? Beer with?

I don’t even have faith anymore. I’ve been using their services since Android went mainstream

I used to use cmus

Navigating unknown directories is faster using GUI though

Can’t wait to debug and rice Arch OS on my brain chip

😂😂🤣🤣 (no)

Dying in the corner, huh? Mind if I join ya?

わかりました

LiveUSB means a usb stick from which you can boot linux temporarily (in case of Ubuntu LiveUSB, the option says something like “try Ubuntu before installing”) and which also provides you an option to install/reinstall the OS.

You can boot from a USB like that and still access and manipulate files on your SSD/HDD.

No hard requirement for it to be the same distro that you have installed, just convenient in case you want to reinstall.

Not if you destroy its bootloader first😈

My opinion. Keep it simple and don’t use a separate partition for home. You never know which directory will be larger (home or root). Just keep a live USB handy so that you can repair the bootloader or fstab or whatever config that got messed up. Keeping a separate partition is not that helpful because even if you mess up, you can easily access your data within the same partition using a live USB.

You’re keeping a common NTFS partition so my advice is to store everything there (downloads, documents, media files) unless it specifically requires a linux filesystem (like app images). So whatever will be left in your linux partitions will be smaller, both in size and number, so you can take a backup easily in case your OS doesn’t boot.
