sl and KDE plasma

The only reason my last machine didn’t get more than 10 years worth of in-place upgrades was because I decommissioned it as a desktop and turned it into a server, so I wiped it at that point.

Because despite all the people telling me I’m wrong, Kubuntu is still by far the best distro I’ve ever used. Rock solid, super fast, and continues to improve.

Lol jk none of my stuff runs on Windows anyway

If you say so

Much like Windows.

It’s not though.

This isn’t even hard. KDE without a second thought.

I regularly try other desktops, and I regularly come back to the only desktop with any sort of reasonable thought put into it.

Because distros have a sick sense of humour.

Is that usual?

Canonical still licenses most of their stuff under GPL3, including new stuff. The license (other than it being open) was probably not even a consideration in deciding to experiment with uutils.

I’ve got GIMP 3.0 here on my Kubuntu system 🤷‍♂️

It using glibc still distinguishes it as more of a GNU system than, say, Alpine.

Yeah this particular guy also loves doing insane things to his machine. He’s absolutely mental in a wonderful way.

My personal take on anything Jon does based on my experience with his delightful antics is that the only thing we can say for sure is if it doesn’t work for him it’s just not going to happen. His blog is pretty great to follow.

Not to mention that I can’t find any indication that Mint has a fixed version of ffmpeg at all.

I’d much rather see RISC-V take over.

Why mess with perfection?
