Maybe. Maybe not. If only there was some site-mechanism to check community-sentiment on comments.

Oh well, until someone invents that I guess we’ll never know.

I appreciate your honest feedback.

qemu ftw.

Point missed twice, impressive.

I admire the time you have dedicated to whooshing and misinterpretation, you have become highly-skilled.

Point missed.

He/she’s dead, Jim.

Noooooo, I just wanna make people leaky… FINE! I’ll commit social-murder, but I won’t be happy about it. (grumbles) Gna go play my rogue in Oblivion gonna stab everybody… (Harumph…)

I’m rich and I love stabbing. Stop excluding me from your straw men arguments.

KDE Manjaro running on 4 or 5 of my machines, pure stability. It sounds like a hardware issue.

Here are my suggestions to diagnose this.

Option 1. Setup an ssh server, connect from a second computer (or phone via Termux), execute $journalctl -fe, and observe the journal from your second device when the crash occurs. That should help pinpoint the issue.

Option 2. If you don’t have a second device, use a non-gui tty, access via Ctrl+Alt+F1. (Usually terminals are available F1 thru F6). Once again execute $journalctl -fe and observe it during the crash.

Tbh option 2 may just be easier especially if you have minimal knowledge of ssh. Good luck, ping me back if you find this helpful and would like more perspective, and apologies if this doesn’t help you.

If the entire computer crashes, boot into a terminal and browse journalctl history of previous boots, sorry I don’t have these commands off the top of my head but if you need them and ask I will get them for you.

I’m loving China’s silent treatment strategy. Use the diplomatic chains, asshole. Trump may have a mob boss mentality, and corporate America is ready to suck his duck because they are spineless capitalists, but China doesn’t need America as much as America needs China.

Fuck the orange moron. Insert head into asshole.

Whatever you have available to start, once you’re up and running make small upgrades based on your needs and use-case. Starting is key, just my 2¥.

Say what you want about Hitler, but he killed Hitler.

Most of my customization is backend (cronned git autocommits for doc clouds, automated file transfers for media share, scripted reprovisioning of locked down systems (steamdeck), webui automation for app access via ssh), but I appreciate front-end customization because it helps me to learn about the tools used to do so in case I ever do feel like adding some eye candy.

Idk why so many folks act like two things can’t be good. Cool community idea. I’m not quite a customizer, but I am more KDE and less XFCE.

An expected response. You are someone who looks but does not see. Good luck.

“Write random shit to root.”

There is a reason they call dd the disk-destroyer.

I add a -v because I like to watch.

Awesome, I understand your reservations and I wish we could find a way to mass dispel them because it is a common perspective.

You’re right, we should ask for consent.

May god have mercy on your kernel.

This is such a common gripe among non-scientists about science, and not only does it demonstrate 1. That you don’t understand the purpose of science, but also 2. that you’ve spent zero time attempting to understand why someone would want to study “obvious” things, because this complaint is so prevalent that numerous scientific communicators have put effort into explaining why this seemingly “common-sense” belief is actually counterproductive. So like, the answer you see is in front of your eyes. So then I ask, is this person making an effort to know or do they just want to complain and feel superior. Wanting to feel superior is very human, I can’t fault you for it, but consider spending some time trying to answer, “Why do scientists study obvious things?” next time, before deciding something is dumb.

That aside and onto a different point, some of the most fascinating results of science have been researching “obvious/stupid” phenomenon and getting surprising results. But… as stated above, all of that information is out there and you seemingly evaded it all this time, so I’ll stop there. I hope you’ll use this as an opportunity to seek out information next time instead of spending your time to construct a complaint, the world is a much more enjoyable place when you approach it with curiousity instead of judgement.

I wish you the best.

Everyone gets a chance. Just because not everyone uses it correctly doesn’t validate the current standard of no one getting a chance.

“Well, we could build a bridge but someone might walk across it to commit crime.” Is not a valid reason to cancel the bridge, it’s an aimless aside with no bearing on the conversation about how the bridge will help most people.
