What practices? I don’t care for Ubuntu because I don’t particularly like the distro. I’m an old Debian fart.

I believe some of the newest offerings by SMLIGHT can also do both.

I can run Ollama. I haven’t tried to do much more than that.

I run a Debian host and honestly can’t recall if I ran it directly or on Docker, but it worked and had pretty good performance on a 7900 XTX.

Surely you’ve heard of Karl Popper’s paradox of tolerance.

Control-A and E should work in insert mode. That’s why OP mentions pressing escape before issuing the normal mode ^ and $ commands.

In insert mode, some or most of the EMacs-style shortcuts work.

It’s not just that. I’m a techie. I’ve been in the industry for decades. I know my way around computer very well.

I want to like Jellyfin and I want to ditch Plex (even though I have a lifetime license) because of what it has become and where it’s headed.

That said, the other day my Plex server had some issues that took me a while to figure out. Since when it failed I just wanted to watch an episode of a series and relax, I once again fired up the JF client. I couldn’t get seek to work, I had to manually find and download subtitles (that’s not always the case but when it is, it’s pretty annoying), and ultimately I couldn’t watch my series at all as playback would randomly stop, the player would close and I’d be back at the menu, without the position having been recorded and with no way to fast-forward as seek didn’t work at all.

I ended up spending 15min figuring out what was wrong and fixing Plex, then watched my series undisturbed.

Like I said, I want to drop Plex for JF, but in the 3 years or so that I’ve been running both, every time I fire up JF I end up running back to Plex as I just want to sit back and watch a bloody series or movie.

HDR shines the most on OLED. Pun not intended. 😅

You can always use APT Pinning to grab GIMP and its dependencies from testing without touching the rest of the system.

Or you can just run testing or sid as your base system. My gaming rig is based on testing but pulling Mesa and video derivers from experimental and sid and I haven’t had any issues with it. Been running it for about 2 years now this way.

Plex supports that natively.

They could be, but 2M new Brazilian users after Twitter’s block there actually seems quite low and definitely credible.

I’ve been using glauth + Authelia for a couple years with no issues and almost zero maintenance.

Ah got it. I didn’t know there was a free tier!

How do you use ChatGPT anonymously? It requires a valid login linked to a payment method. It doesn’t get any less anonymous than that.

The main “instability” I’ve found with testing or sid is just that because new packages are added quickly, sometimes you’ll have dependency clashes.

Pretty much every time the package manager will take care of keeping things sane and not upgrading a package that will cause any incompatibility.

The main issue is if at some point you decide to install something that has conflicting dependencies with something you already have installed. Those are usually solvable with a little aptitude-fu as long as there are versions available to sort things out neatly.

A better first step to newer packages is probably stable with backports though.

Not much use to go Ubuntu or Mint, unless you have specific issues with Debian that don’t happen with those. Even then, it may be one apt install away from a fix.

If you want to try out BSD, power to you. I wouldn’t experiment on a backup computer though, unless by backup you just mean you want to have the spare hardware and will format it with Debian if you ever need to make it your main computer anyway.

Otherwise, just run Debian!

Well what do you know… this was just released in beta! Haven’t had a chance to try it yet though.

Doesn’t seem to have been an update in a while…

I fairly constantly need to disable Bluetooth on my iPad so they work on my phone.

If you put the headphones in pairing mode, you can just re-pair with the phone without having to touch the iPad.

Stability is no longer an advantage when you are cherry picking from Sid lol.

This makes no sense. When 95% of the system is based on Debian stable, you get pretty much full stability of the base OS. All you need to pull in from the other releases is Mesa and related packages.

Perhaps the kernel as well, but I suspect they’re compiling their own with relevant parameters and features for the SD anyway, so not even that.
