I could be wrong but I feel like I’ve seen

AE_AML_INVALID_RESOURCE_TYPE

Before,

Now take what I say with a grain of salt because in my experience 9 times out of 10 drives not mounting properly stop the system from booting, if you have multiple drives connected to your pc that automatically mount and you’re familiar with your /etc/fstab I would suggest disabling auto-mount to any drive that isn’t your boot drive and try again.

But, none of the FOSS alternatives work well enough to move my friends over there, in my experience.

Been slowly moving to Matrix/Element and was able to convince two buddies to at least make accounts, currently the biggest struggle we’ve had was with the voice channels.

There appears to be two types of voice channels; Jitsi & Element Call, Jitsi works okay but screen sharing appears to not work on either Windows or Linux and also doesn’t appear to allow mobile users to connect with desktop users and vice versa. Meanwhile Element Call seems to work perfectly but there is an unnecessary extra step to install the Element X beta app for mobile for it to work.

Another gripe about Matrix is spaces/room permissions, to my understanding Spaces are like discord servers so when I make a user an Admin you expect them to get admin privilege over every room right? Welp, it’s not and you have to give them admin for every single room also, once you give someone Admin you can’t remove it and they have to do it themselves. While I understand why it’s done this way I find it quite dumb.

The fact that Matrix is apart of the fediverse is enough for me to disregard the issues I mentioned above however, for others it can be seen as a deal-breaker.

And Searx

You posted the same link twice but neither of them mention or seem to relate to Proton?

Title says “Steal This Comic” so I did.

Sue me.

Mr Torvald, I don’t feel so well.

Basically Linux mint or bazzite is the system and how it’s organized while plasma is how I’m seeing that system represented and interacting with it in other words?

Yup, seems like you got the gist of it!

Obviously once you start reading documents on software you’ll start to understand it all better. Suggest reading into the Docker engine for self-hosting software on your network!

how does plasma and Debian fit in cus that stuff is ringing a bell.

Distributions like Ubuntu, Kali Linux, Linux Mint are actually based off of Debian however, each distribution provides their own packages and typically have system files in different places, so packages made for Ubuntu may or may not work with Debian and vice-versa.

Like plasma being separate than a distro

KDE Plasma is a Desktop Environment (aka your desktop). When you install a Linux distro on your computer you’ll typically be given an option on which software you want to pre install. You’ll see software like GNOME, KDE Plasma, Xfce, Cinnamon, etc and by doing a little research into them you can pick the environment that suites you best.

GNOME gave me MacOS vibes while KDE is more Windows.

Edit; I should’ve mentioned you can choose to go headless without a GUI and only run the shell which saves a lot of resources.

Hope this explains things easily!

I personally started out with Debian given that a vast majority of distributions are Debian based, typically paired with KDE Plasma 5 for my desktop environment, and learned from there.

Now Debian is really stable but does require command-line configuration quite often so it may feel complicated but if you’re capable of reading & following documentation then you should be all good.

Currently in the process of fixing up my old Asus TUF FX505DU with Debian & KDE Plasma.

Setting up Nvidia Optimus would be a pain if it weren’t for Envy Control, run one command and boom GPU’s speak nicely to one another.

That’s just how you unlock the hidden boss fight.
