2 days ago my friend found an old SATA hard drive and gave it to me to check what's on it, and me, not having a disk station or anything, and against all better judgment, I just swapped the disk in my laptop for my friend's, and instead of my laptop being fried it turned out the disk was running something called Crunchbang Linux

Or "wyrewolwerowany rewolwer"

My classmates and I played around with that one a lot back in primary school – I think I once managed to say "wyrewolwerowany rewolwerowiec wyrewolwerowuje wyrewolwerowany rewolwer" without skipping a beat.

Yeah I thought I was seeing things but nope, actual E.Y.E meme. I still need to 100% it

Linux Mint install one of the hull it on the way do i dont trust them om

I've been using proton for a few months now with a yearly Mail Plus subscription and I have yet to receive an actual spam e-mail. Your experience might be different than mine since I take precautions not to invite spam in the first place, but even then, Proton looks to be doing an excellent job

oh damn, i didn't realize you can get boards like that! i thought they all had the i3, so i didn't bother to look. thanks a lot!

yeah that's what i figured would happen, but it's worth a shot anyway

Weird, the software manager (using LM 21.3) reports 1.1GB dl, 2.4GB installed (which is different from when i checked yesterday for some reason?). flatpak install reports around 2.1GB of dependencies and the package itself at just 1.3MB

EDIT: nvm im stupid, the other reply explains the discrepancy

For the past few years, I just install the latest stable version of anything I use and never bother touching or tweaking anything ... never had a problem since.

And that's exactly how I'm trying to approach everything after the reinstall. I like tinkering with my system, but after a couple months it really starts messing with everything.

It's funny seeing this like literally a couple days after I decided it would be easier to reinstall my Mint sysyem than to fix the audio issues Pipewire was causing. I'm back on PulseAudio and haven't had issues since.

Seems solid, I'll check it out, thanks!

Good point, though I don't remember Linux Mint's XFCE calendar being able to set up events. I'll make sure when I get back home
