Where to start?
  • I will second Bazzite, with the additional note that I've needed to use Feral Gamemode to get rid of microstuttering and other minor performance issues. But, that's not really different from any other distro I've tried gaming on (Void, OpenSUSE Tumbleweed, Funtoo).

  • Longtime Debian user, looking to branch out.
  • If you're willing to forgo the GUI installer requirement, take a look at Void Linux. Pretty slim base installation, very stable and conservative package updates for a rolling release. Excelllent package manager. Downside might be smaller package selection than Debian or Arch.

  • Anyone tried CoffeeSock? A V60 Style Reusable Cloth Coffee Filter
  • I'm currently using a pair of them for pour-over in a Hario V60. As others have mentioned, they do taste differently than paper filters. I rinse them thoroughly after each use, then hang just inside a sunny window to dry quickly. I also alternate each day between the two that I have, so that each one has an extra day to stay dry. Doing this while boiling them once a month or so keeps them well cleaned, no odors or odd tastes. However, you do end up using a decent amount of water over time to keep them clean; it's unclear if saving a year's worth (how long two CoffeeSocks last according to the manufacturer) of paper filters is worth the extra water consumption. I'm thinking of switching to paper myself, and keeping these as a backup.

  • New Elite Dangerous/Odyssey Deluxe Edition/Pricing update.
  • You're welcome! I should also mention that AntiMicroX has been a lifesaver ever since I got a throttle and a stick that have more than 32 buttons. Because that's the limit that E:D can see on one device, I just use AMX to map the remaining buttons to keyboard keys.

  • Void Linux
  • Yep, been using it as my daily driver for a few years now, aside from trying out OpenSUSE Tumbleweed for a few months. I've settled on running it with sway as my wm for the time being. I've generally been pretty happy with it. I like the package manager and the relative simplicity of the system, which requires a bit more work to set up but seems easier to understand/fix when something goes wrong (usually user error in my experience, lol.) The developers also proved that they could learn from their mistakes with a minimum of drama after the whole kerfluffle with the original creator. Most packages that I need that aren't in the repo can be had with flatpak. Overall, a relatively pleasant Linux distro experience.

    Btw, here is a small void linux community for lemmy. It doesn't appear to be very active, but hopefully that will change with time.

  • How can I add a terminal app to autostart in spesific workspace?
  • I found this handy guide which I believe accomplishes what you're trying to do. You can get app_id by running swaymsg -t get_tree. However, if you're launching within foot you may have to force a different app_id/title with foot's options so that you can launch foot elsewhere for other things. I do this with htop like so: foot -T htop -a htop htop. This sets the title to htop, the app_id to htop, and then finally launches htop within foot.

  • What's your next project in Elite?
  • (Very) gradually making my way to Colonia with my carrier (been there before, just sans carrier), making good credits with exobiology along the way. Then unlocking some engineers, then gotta decide whether to go back to the bubble, or go the other way...

  • Which distro are you using right now?
  • I keep coming back to Void Linux.

    It's more hands-on and takes a little more work to set up initially than something like Ubuntu or Pop!_OS, but it's simpler and generally more stable than Gentoo or Arch and has a nice, snappy package manager. The underlying system is simple enough that in the rare event something does break, it's relatively easy to fix.

    It's the first distro I've returned to since leaving Slackware a second time.
