One of the few times reading a translated book is better tgan the original, I read it in Spanish and I guess the translator made it more tolerable because I'm not much of a reader at all (I've read at most five books on my own, less if we don't count unfinished)
I use matrix with a friend, matrix calls (the one that has the option for video) drop out on their own with no warning and the ring tone is very easy to miss, I wish there was anything to do about those two problems. Other than that it's great, legacy calls seem more robust
I do it when I take a pic with my Mom's or a couple other people's phones, some people do not even care that they put their fingers on the lens, and some phones are just made in such a way that it's hard to avoid if you're not thinking about it.
Edit: I have had it happen to me a few times, I dislike calls with the phone pressed against my ear with a passion so I tend to avoid it, but I feel like that makes it more likely to smudge the lens so if you do it often.
Whatever you interpret that as since my main goal here is to seed conversation, but the thing that I was thinking of when asking was a web gui with some live stats, doing some simple maintenance stuff, maybe manage or glance at docker/podman status and other services, etc.
Since I've seen some conversations about documenting setups so they can be picked up and troubleshot by someone else unfamiliar with the setup like a family member, I expected it would be common to lower the friction for basic maintenance but seeing the amount of ssh comments makes me think otherwise, maybe more people use their servers exclusively for personal entertainment than I expected.
Ive tasted wine and beer and had cider and champagne for toasts, didn't drink more than a few sips.
Combining it all I don't think I added up to a whole glass in less than a year, I see no problem in trying stuff and doing toasts, but I've also haven't had contact with heavy alcoholics so it's easy for me to say something like that, if I've had experience with alcoholics in my family I'd probably not even want to try.
Yerba mate 🧉 when i have a few hours to chill and don't work the next day, occasionally soda too under the same conditions, although I almost never buy soda for myself because it has been tasting like shit in the last few years in my country.
I wouldn't say a lot unless i have both because I tend to drink a lot of liquid
My laptop needs reliability to be fairly certain I'll have everything working when I use it on poor internet, my desktop is always comnected to high bandwidth and has a decent cpu so I can spare a bit extra time and cycles on updating everything when something breaks
Different needs
I did like having the same thing going on on both for the couple months I used mint on both.
I switched to mint for a few months to have the same thing I recommended my friend, I decided to switch again to something i consider bdtter for me.
There's nothing wrong with mint, at most you're missing a thing or two that are part of other base distros that you can add on your own, it's preference, that's all
Technically there can be some performance gains on a different distro but then you have to do tinkering and stuff. If I had to keep maining mint I wouldn't mind at all (and some things are way easier and painless).
One thing: browsers have had some issues in every distro I tried other than cachyos, nothing major but a bit of frame drops here and there
I've seen a similar thesis in video form yesterday, I feel like in both cases the author forgot the fear they had before making the choice and think that sidestepping the solution to that part is no biggie.
But we're talking about people who are afraid of a black box where you type text, they need as little friction as possible.
