Haha same, although I formally learned English for years, a few decades of constant exposure made me more fluent than the educational system could ever can.
For Spanish however, I'm still riding the high. I can read it somewhat, as it's related to my native French. But I never knew I could hold more interesting conversations than ordering food or asking for directions đ
It's incredible!
I never formally learned Spanish, but yesterday I found out that I absorbed enough of it through music and tv shows and spending childhood holidays in Spain that I could hold a surprisingly ok conversation with very understanding native speakers đ

It won't answer all of your answers, but it should at least give you a good primer on what distros are and what are the main key takeaways.
Yeah, nah. It's not like in Scandinavia where half the dialects lost the feminine and half the others look at you like you killed their mother for saying "en bok".
Most French "dialects" vary mostly in prononciation and a few regional words or expressions. Partly because French is a heavily regulated language, and partly because most dialects are relatively recent anyway. In the early 20th century the central government erased all regional languages and forced standard French on all society.
Seconded. I recently moved my gaming rig from Nobara to Bazzite because this machine is only occasionally booted, and I don't want to spend the little time I have available for gaming doing maintenance instead. Except from a mounting error for my secondary drive that I made (bc after 20+ years on Linux I still can't be arsed enough to learn how to fstab), I was in Cyberpunk 2077 in less than 5 minutes.
Pros:
- Easy setup, everything works out of the box
- A lot of preinstalled gaming-related packages and tweaks, plus a lot of QOL improvements over Silverblue/Kinoite
- Ready to game as soon as it's installed
- No updates, no maintenance! Full system images are downloaded and installed in the background and are applied at reboot.
- Immutable so "impossible" to fuck up.
- uBlue projects are not distros but a delivery system, all the work is actually done by Fedora. No risk associated with a single-maintainer project like Nobara.
Cons:
- Immutable so "impossible" to fuck up.
Pro tip: don't keep your Steam games on a Windows partition. They won't launch.
Must know Jira, Python, Snowflake, dbt, how to find the will to live.
I'm guessing Portugal?
Next what?
No mistakes allowed.
Nervosa is my favorite all-women band of all time. Super tight thrash/melodeath from Brazil.
Dont short-sell yourself, the work you've done is amazing. The fact that you recognize feature creep and make plans to address it show a level of maturity (I'm assuming you're a young dev as you mention school) that a lot of devs with 5x your experience could only dream of. I know a lot of devs well past their 30s and with 10+y of XP who keep adding shit and exceptions in the product because the business has a minor use case that impacts .01% of the customers once a year and never think of challenging the use case itself.
Feature creep curses most software products without a strong governance, at the expense of everything else. You can only choose two between a readable, maintainable codebase, performance and a fuckton of features. In the end, feature creeps makes everybody unhappy, because devs have to work with messy, fragile code and user experience becomes slow, bloated and overly complex. You're right in recognizing that the first two are by far the most important.
You're in the right state of mind, and you're an amazing dev who created an amazing product.
I replaced the idiotically loud motherboard fan with a 24V 40/10 Noctua. It needs slightly longer screws than the stock ones but otherwise it's a drop in replacement. Noise levels are much more acceptable now.
It wouldn't be insane, but it wouldn't be advisable as a long term solution. USB-C charging ports invariably fail, mostly because of mechanical stresses. And when they do, it's much more sensible to replace a 10⏠expansion card than the entire mobo (or the entire laptop for the competitors).
Besides, you don't buy a FWL if you're strapped on cash. You buy it as a gamble on the future to reduce your e-waste while keeping relevant. Plus, there are smarter ways to reduce cost, like buying your ram and ssd elsewhere.
You mean Cornwall?
Haha thanks !
I would like to say I'm used to fstab too but honestly I barely have to use it once every five years đ
The issue was indeed from the fstab. But it was because exec was specified before users.
Why do a lot of people put a ground symbol (â) in their username (esp on Mastodon)?
