Thanks God it's weekend, what Linux project do you have in mind?

My weekend Linux project was:
Fire up Heroic launcher.
Fire up Guardians of the Galaxy which I got as a freebie from Epic Games.
Spend several hours shooting things and blowing sh*t up.
Happy days.

So, all fired up for the coming week, then?

Noodly · February 18, 2024, 7:34pm

heheheh ready to take on the world, even the galaxy.

My weekend plans was:

Download .NET 8.0.0
Configure code editor and sync it with github
Some practice with c#
Think about AUR supremacy

I’m going to endeavour!

fbodymechanic · March 9, 2024, 12:01am

I will update both computers. And then likely everything will still work as it did so I’ll head to the shooting range because my normal weekend work is done.

Tomorrow I will be installing FreeBSD to my secondary tower. Not exactly a Linux project, but I’ll be replacing Linux with FreeBSD, so…kinda Linux related .

I’ve been running FreeBSD in a VM for well over a year. It’s been 100% trouble-free and stable.

Was this the Solydxk computer?

Stagger_Lee · March 9, 2024, 12:25am

Arch. Solyd used to be the primary tower’s daily driver. Now the drive lives on outside of any computer, it gets plugged in and updated about once a month. On each anniversary of the install date I use it for 2-3 days. It’s made it to 10 years so far.

fbodymechanic · March 9, 2024, 12:40am

That’s just impressive none the less.

So why freebsd as opposed to Linux? I’ve never really tried the BSD systems.

Stagger_Lee · March 9, 2024, 12:44am

Just something different. Arch is so freakin’ stable, I get bored sometimes (FreeBSD is stable, too, but it’s quite different from Linux). Plus FreeBSD reminds me of the good ol’ days when I used Unix and early Linux distros.

I have never had a look at distrobox.

I hope to find time this weekend to install a test system to try distrobox on.

swh · March 15, 2024, 5:09pm

I’m happy my System runs smoothly. Nothing to do here

ricklinux · March 15, 2024, 5:12pm

Me too …Plasma 6 all the way!

UncleSpellbinder · March 15, 2024, 5:28pm

Well, my new monitor arrives tomorrow. So first I’ll swap out the old Vizio I’m currently using with the new Asus. And since I have a new install (installed Monday morning), this will be my first weekend with EndeavourOS. I’ll probably spend some time tweaking and testing themes.

SemLraug · March 15, 2024, 5:35pm

This week i wiped my old laptop on which i tested Plasma 6. Then i installed EOS XFCE on it. This weekend i will probably spend some time to do some tinkering to adjust it to my needs and likes.

Or I may decide to install another distro all together.

A laptop had 2 gigs of corrupted systemd journal entries. Reinvigorated my hatred of cancerous systemd, so I’ll revisit Artix on it.

localhunter · March 16, 2024, 9:16am

I was working on a thing in bash to move all the files in ~ with a certain extension to a desired directory, like it’d move all of your .pngs to ~/Images, had some troubles with ls appending a colon at the end of every directory and im still working on it actually… maybe ill make a suggestion in the git repo…

DromundKaas · March 16, 2024, 10:10am

I am finally ready to set up emulation on my Steam Deck. We’ll see how it goes. There’s lots of options.
