yeah, the new Plasma is hard to beat. I want to like Gnome… I just see no compelling features, really.

Great song and video.

The music producer / mixer in me is yelling, “bring those vocals up to the front more!”.

But hey, doesn’t matter. Great song and vid.

I moved away from plasma a few years back. I can’t remember the reason(s) why. I think it was I just wanted to use a tiling wm. Either way, I decided to pop on the unstable NixOS channel and give plasma6 a go. I ain’t going back to no damn tiling shenanigans.

What the plasma team did here is what, I think, a lot of people have been waiting for. It feels very polished and refreshed. I’m so damn impressed by it.

Either way, I agree:

Developers: You did something amazing here.

You don’t really compile anything during or after install with arch linux unless you find something on the AUR that needs to compile? If so, just look for .

Otherwise, a really nice system is NixOS.

Another is GNU Guix.

Yeah, reaper is definitely not open.

I think my all time favorite for learning a new language is language transfer. Though, I don’t see a polish or Japanese option, sadly.

And Krita!

i think Zotero is indeed open source, free software

I think you might like to try it. Maybe to get a taste for it try the nix package manager first. Right now I’m kind of struggling on whether or not NixOS is the one for me or Gnu Guix. Both are pretty awesome.

Right, thank you. I haven’t had my coffee yet. I should have been more clear.

Okay, so I haven’t installed Debian in quite some time, but I think I know what’s happening here.

It’s looking for the CD / DVD “repos” because it may be enabled in your apt sources. You just have to comment out the lines involved with CD and DVD in your /etc/apt/sources.list file I think.

Uh, yeah. Cheers

For 3D/2D -> Blender

Office stuff: LibreOffice

For programming -> Neovim, Insomnia (for testing out REST api’s and whatnot)

Virtual Machines -> KVM/Qemu (Virtmanager, Boxes, etc) This one was a huge improvement for me

I use VLC for most of my multimedia needs

For game development (related somewhat to 3D/2D) -> Bevy and Godot

Plus a tonne of others I’m leaving out. It’s really a nice feeling.
