I AM SO DISAPPOINTED WITH UBUNTU 24.04 😡
  • Ubuntu is a fork of unstable Debian packages

    And where do you think debian stable packages come from exactly ?...

    it's basicaly the exact same thing. In both case :

    • At some point freeze unstable (snapshot unstable in case of ubuntu),
    • fix bugs found in the frozen set of packages,
    • release as stable.
  • What're some of the dumbest things you've done to yourself in Linux?
  • I tried to convert Debian to Ubuntu by replacing the Debian repos in apt with Ubuntu’s and following with dist-upgrade

    Shouldn't it work though ? Or be close to work with the appropriate options passed down to dpkg

  • What're some of the dumbest things you've done to yourself in Linux?
  • It doesn't work with root disabled.

    The way to fix this is to boot in bash recovery where you land a root shell. From there you can hopefully apt install sudo if deb file is still in cache. If not, you have to make network function without systemd for apt install to work. Or, you can get sudo deb file and all missing dependencies from usb stick and apt install them from fs. Or just enable root, give it a password and reboot so you can su - and apt install sudo

  • What're some of the dumbest things you've done to yourself in Linux?
    • apt something that ended up removing sudo. No more admin rights.
    • used rsync to backup pretty much everything in / , with remove source option...
    • find with -delete option miss positioned. It deleted stuff before finding matching pattern
    • chown / chmod on /bin and/or /usr/bin
    • Removed everything in /etc
  • Windows vs Linux
  • Holly shit, after looking things up it's even worse than I thought...

    Playing Valorant will need to enable TPM 2.0 and secure boot under windows 11 OS, you have to check that your motherboard is support TPM 2.0 system. (NOTE: If your system unable to support TPM2. 0, the only way that you can play Valorant is change your windows to older version as windows 10.)

    Damn, Riot effectively turning PC into console...

  • English may be a hot mess but at least we don't have to worry about this nonsense
  • Because "people" (my french self included) would just say (most of the time) "la machine à laver" (or even shorter : la machine) and out of context, you'd figure out which of the 2 is actually talked about.

    Also, as "machine à laver" litterally translate to "washing machine", it didn't even occure to me that it had to be understood as laundry machine, hence why I initially said it was a "she".
