Bluefin is essentially Aurora with Gnome, and Bazzite has a Gnome version, so if that’s more your cup of tea, it’s out there!

It almost certainly will grind a lot of governance to a halt as every little minute regulatory effort is litigated to death by corporate plaintiffs, while the Conservative courts slow-walk their proceedings.
Government will still function, but at a snail’s pace, which I’m sure is the entire point: grind it to a halt when non-Conservatives have control and open the floodgates when Conservatives are in power.
Tried Aurora in a VM, and while it ran like shit (probably a VM issue, not Aurora’s), I was shocked that it reported updates, and by the next boot, it had already updated everything.
I run Bazzite on a laptop, so they’re similar, but Aurora really felt clean, polished, and ready for general use.
TBH, it would be really funny and poetic to coopt the phrase “drill baby, drill” to mean something completely different. I hope the Internet makes that happen.
Good. End-stage-capitalism isn’t working for most people, and it’s time these polluters pay what they owe humanity.
If that means they’re sued into bankruptcy, well, then they should have better estimated the “cost of doing business,” hadn’t they have?
Weird. I would be interested to know what actually happened, but I am not smart enough to troubleshoot hardware to that degree! At least you found something that works.
TBH, Red Hat focusing their attention on business isn’t that problematic for me. RHEL is specifically for businesses, and Red Hat needs to make money to keep operating. Kind of a necessary evil, if you could consider that evil. However, I completely understand why the capitalist realm makes average people squirm.
But that said, I usually prefer community projects myself (Fedora spins included), since they tend to have modified setups that are more in line with what regular users would want or need.
Thank you for the history lesson! I can see why their decision might chafe some people or cause them to be a bit more wary (given that many of us live in an end-stage-capitalism hellscape), but as is often the case, real life details are usually mundane.
I’ve personally been impressed by their Atomic distros, and they’ve come a long way since I first tried vanilla Fedora with Gnome many years ago.
I always forget about Aurora and Bluefin. Thanks for the reminder!
Worse. His policies would effectively nuke a lot of the global climate progress we’ve made and set the world back decades—as if we have the time to waste.
Good to have the facts straight. It’s creepy enough on its own without inventing details.
One of these days, I’ll have to give Universal Blue a look for general computing. Bazzite is excellent, but I don’t imagine my MiL is going to care about having Steam and gamescope installed out of the box, should I ever have to do a fresh install for her.
Curious how your atomic distro broke, since you can rollback
and rebase
pretty easily after a problematic update. I’m running Bazzite on a 10yo laptop, and it’s been great; I even rebased to a completely different DE, then did a rollback when I decided it didn’t work for me.
Not implying anything, but why don’t you trust Red Hat? Because they’re a big company, or because of some other reason?
Podman, from what I can tell, is the result of people wanting a wishlist of fixes/upgrades from Docker and being met with hostility at the notion.

Great indie co-op games:
Upcoming games to consider:
I’ll take one for the team and fucking put that shit to the motherfucking test. Pretty sure we can removed and moan all we want, as long as we aren’t attacking some other user’s ass.
I think you mean it might end up removed on this instance, though Lemmy itself doesn’t have some kind of global automod built in, controlled by some central censorship team at the top. It’s just regular mods following up on reports, generally. Maybe bigger instances have automods, but that would only affect those instances’ users and the communities that live upon them.
I had to practice in a VM before even considering vanilla Arch. No way am I going to fiddle around with getting everything right on bare metal.
Seconded. Also, Garuda “Dr4g0nized” is gaming focused and Arch under the hood, for a more traditional option.
Practice in a VM and see for yourself! I did that, set everything up, and ultimately decided it was more system admin detail than I wanted to take on. But as far as ease goes, it’s not especially hard, there’s just not much in the way of hand-holding or preset configs, and you’ll likely find there’s a lot of preinstalled drivers and things you take for granted.
