I prefer Quod Libet but I have fond memories of rhythmbox.

whipper is my goto for that.

“Without further due”…

… yeah …

And that’s why most (all?) things that are well-designed to provide external access have permalinks. Dropbox, Google, OneDrive…

That usually doesn’t apply to external access though. You don’t share stuff publicly by NFS or SMB.

What the hell shitty system does that?

NixOS is not special there. It runs the same software as any other Linux distro.

Sure. And this is why we have measles outbreaks still today.

Not talking about viruses despite the vaccine comparison.

Software has vulnerabilities, even on NixOS.

It’s not just your decision though. Like vaccinations, your decision affects everyone else so it’s not your decision alone.

See? They forced you to upgrade to Linux, now you’re more secure!

Not as it is conventionally used.

If you break a lock, that’s different from unlocking it and removing it.

Forcing upgrades at Microsoft’s convenience.

This is the only one I agree with. Upgrades are necessary for security, it’s just a fact of life.

Explain please.

It’s an expression meaning you are arguing/fighting over something when both sides actually hold the same position and didn’t realize at first.

Ignore anyone who says anything about a “gaming” distro. There is literally no performance difference.

I’ve never heard of anyone suggest a gaming-focused distro for performance reasons.

It’s always for compatibility and shit-just-works reasons. And that is wildly different between distros.

There’s nothing especially gaming-focused with bazzite that would interfere with general PC usage. I think it’s a great choice for “25% gaming”.

The only thing is that there’s not a lot of distro-specific guidance out there, and the immutable concept is a bit new and unusual.

The first is the only way that makes sense, the second too easily becomes post-grease-queue-el. Which is horrible.

What’s the difference? Those read the same to me. Do you mean that you want a strong gap between “gre” and the S in S-Q-L?

Yes but no. Some folks are purists and feel that the actual code must derive from the original BSD/SysV code.
