I recommend slackware exclusively. Sometimes times it feels like I’m pissing into the wind.
This feels like the best answer. Those are your air conditioner lines. You probably don’t want to seal them in with spray foam.
Your best way to keep pests out is to track those lines from your A/C unit outside to where they enter your house. Seal that up with the pest resistant foam if there is any daylight.
Shove some rockwool insulation into the hole. You can finish with steel wool too for added pest protection. Then put the cable cover up to make it look pretty.
You office has a community oven and skillet?

What about neither and tailscale (free) on all your devices? Or are you often phoning home on outside devices?
I personally bought a domain name (namecheap) for my vps. Then I set up ddclient on my home pc to fetch my external IP every so often and update namecheap. But I didn’t feel it was secure enough. Tailscale is easier, and i feel like it adds a layer of security.
If you are still dual booting, btrfs has a very good windows driver. Btrfs is newer and only recently started becoming the default on a couple mainline OSes. Ext4 has been around forever and is assumed to be much more stable.
Fwiw, I’ve been using btrfs for the last 18 months or so without any issue. I don’t use any of the tools. There’s no obvious or immediate performance difference like there was in the old days. We’re all on SSDs now and they’re fast no matter what.
I’m in over my head a little bit. I’ve got an old desktop converted to a server running proxmox. But I can’t ssh into it or access the web interface. It’s obnoxious.
I use it with real debrid and a vpn. I have it on a few android TV devices. I need the ease of use for my luddite wife and 5 year old.
I never considered the re-seeding issue until now. Do the debrid servers not re-seed?
I’m working on a homelab and will eventually try to set up jellyfin, but this is a work in progress.
Distro-hop? Never. But getting something to work is way more satisfying to me than using that thing. (Slackware user since late 90s, recently diagnosed with adhd)
Slackware users won’t! At least not so far.
Or, kick it old school with reiserFS
Oh sweet child
Slackware current on btrfs for snapshots. Slackbuilds make the text go weeeeee, but the scripts will compile and build the package for you.
Plasma 6 hasn’t come over officially yet, but the main guy who put plasma together has a testing version out.
You could probably get the official proton app running, but I’m good with protonvpn-cli.
It’s been led by the same one dude since the early 90s. There’s nothing close to corporate about it. And there are great communities on IRC and matrix full of knowledgeable folks. And there’s linuxquestions.org too.
Thank you brave pioneers. I just felt confident to switch to btrfs last year.
I’m a long time slackware user, but I joined the party some time in 99 or 00.
I never had the pleasure of installing from floppies, but I did compile my own kernels to speed up boot time. Sometimes they would boot, sometimes they wouldn’t. That was part of the fun.
I’ve been on a retro kick lately. I have a pentium 200 mmx based machine that will eventually run a floppy installed slackware. Or at least it will if I can get it to work.
I’m doing trisquel on a sugar toast for my 5 year old and she loves it!
Everything has some sort of top:
Slacktop, craptop, proxtop, oldtop, wifetop, and batocera (because I keep forgetting to ssh in and change it).
Not sure, I’ve only ever been on Adderall and Vyvanse. And I don’t like Adderall. I was diagnosed late in life and just started this journey about 1.5 years ago.
i discovered it around the same time, but i forget how. It’s been my only daily driver since then. I can fumble my way through a .deb distro if I have to, but slackware is my comfort zone.
You should throw -current up on a distrohop partition and re-live your youth.
