No offense taken, but I didn’t use btrfs snapshots in a minute and spent 200 hours in the last 18 days working on my distro with a little less than adequate sleep due to my ADHD keeping me awake, thinking about what to implement next. Please cut me some slack haha

True, if you set it up out of the box with CachyOS it rolls the entire disk back, but I forgot that option was a thing, my bad!

‘Oh come on!’ was my initial reaction, but I’ve read your website, and thought: ‘hey, that sounds nice!’

Haha, I know I know, yet another Arch-based distro in this economy, but I really feel like this does fill a gap, thank you for your interest!

On the other hand, perhaps the distros like this are meant to be installed by someone skilled to then be used mostly unattended by a regular user.

My aim is to make this both appealing for the normie who just wants to use it like “SteamOS but with CachyOS speed” and run Flatpaks on it AND for the more experienced user who wants all the benefits of Arch but with a little more peace of mind.

how would you know what’s a working state, so you need to return to the previous one?

As the website explains, it automatically falls back to the last working state if it doesn’t boot, but obviously it can’t detect if something is messed up but still booting like in your example. In that case you just reboot and manually select the last working state (wip but kinda working already) just like a BTRFS snapshot, BUT it only rolls back the system itself, NOT your files. A BTRFS snapshot will also roll back your documents or whatever so my system, when it’s stable and tested, will be superior in every way to BTRFS snapshots.

I’m making my own distro rn, announced it a week ago here and will likely release today or tomorrow! https://pu-239.org/ https://lemmy.ml/post/52307735

Nice comprehensive overview of why this piece of slop called a “distro” and its backers should be boycotted, thank you! Gives me even more motivation to finish up mine today.

First image: why is she typing on the edges of the keyboard, why is the keyboard just one rectangle, why is the trackpad split in two

Second image: the server is the most unsymmetrical thing I have ever seen and her hands don’t make sense

Third image: the guy is just holding the sign with his wrist, not with his hand and the sign itself is so straight it looks photoshopped in. Well or just placed in by an AI. Also, the backglow of the sign appears behind the people, not behind the sign

Fourth image: the guy had five fingers on the megaphone, the woman only has four. The woman has five fingers on the paper, the guy has a crab hand

This is some mayor fucking AI slop.

Well I mean I support the message, but please pay an artist instead of using these ugly AI generated images.

Who the fuck defines “legitimate” interest anyway, they can go fuck themselves with their “legitimate”, I hate it so much

The Pixel 9a is getting cheap and looking for them on the used market is even better, do yourself the favor and get one!

No it didn’t come across that way, even after re-reading it, it sounds serious.

Also yeah, it wasn’t trying to hide the fact, it’s advertised to have voice control and has a button for it. For some reason it says “you have to be connected to the internet to use voice control” if I try to test it which makes no fucking sense tho lmao.

Step by step. Maybe true privacy is a myth, but every step closer is a win so take them.

While it’s not always the case, try to look for a 2x4 silver rectangle with a hole in it like the one on my finger. The casing is to isolate it from the nearby radio waves and the hole to let sound through.

It’s sad isn’t it?

The walls are listening

GrapheneOS my brother

I’ll go down swinging with my hoarded DDR3 sticks

I removed N2! N1 was the chip for the mic or something.

Probably, but the nuclear option is always more fun

Dude of course it’s not constantly recording, but the fact that it can record on two AAA batteries even every now and then for over a year is ridiculous

That’s the thing, the average person’s value is waaay more than the discount you are getting. Imagine the screens without any smart bs built into them as being the real cost. Now you ADD the hardware and suddenly they cost 25-50%? If it wasn’t worth at least that (your data is worth more), the companies wouldn’t subsidize that much.
