Grumpy old #PHP developer trying to learn #elixir with an unhealthy obsession with coding, dad jokes, and #Linux. Living in Olympia, WA #OlyWA

I have a #linux question. I'm trying to update firmware on this laptop but can't boot from the internal drive, so want to run fwupd from a Linux mint live iso.

Which will run, but says I have no space on the drive. I know there is space on the USB. How can I expand the install media to take up more of the disk and allow me to actually run this?

Replying to 56a43495...

Yes, modern day Windows is so extremely bloated. I never understood why Microsoft removed the customisation options from the installer. But perhaps they went: "Hm, thats an awful lot of disk space you got there.. let's do something about that"

The last 2 months, i've been giving out comptuers with my customized NixOS on it, and with NO training, people have ZERO issues.

Sometimes I feel like #linux is a bit rougher around the edges than I'd like it to be...

But then I use a Windows computer and realize HOW GOOD we have it.

How does anyone use this hot garbage?! I've never seen an i7 with an NVMe run so slow in my life.

Then it just locked itself. A+ stuff Microsoft

I've got an HP Chromebook 11 that's been jailbroken and running #NixOS perfectly.... Except audio. Just shows no device and headphones don't work either.

I checked NixOS hardware and didn't see anything. Seems like a hardware thing. Like #linux kernel params.

Anyone have any ideAs?

Any #elixir devs using #HelixEditor or really any type of editor that requires elixir-ls?

How do you install Elixir-ls on #Fedora ?

I'm so used to NixOS where it's just packaged, but can't seem to figure out how to do this in Fedora (i'm on an M1 running asahi right now)

Am I the only one who LOVEEESSSS a nice TUI?

Does #grapheneos support android auto yet? Or will it?

That's my biggest hold up

Anyone here running #linux on an #arm machine, maybe even an M1 #Asahi ?

The flatpak of telegram says it's set for arm64, yet I get this error message running it.

Any ideas?

We need to talk about verified #flatpak apps, and its potential harm to #linux adoption.

What are your thoughts?

Just got my first electric mower and wow. Why would anyone need more than this? It's great!

Bye bye ICE lawncare!

#linux users, what do you think is the most intimidating or confusing part of someone first getting into Linux?

Where do you see people get stuck or dissuaded?

Having an outdoor kitchen in our trailer is so awesome!

nostr:npub19p9v7u97z6yrts6v3rmpg6z5mp7unkrsgv2cxn7aslcw5kza6plqh3t9ul right! I was already on unstable.. so that was easy.. but yup! Can't wait for it to be in stable too

I love and respect plasma. I really do. But whyyyyyy is a simple alt tab workflow always broken and not working the right way?!

Just give me icons I can tab, or hover through.

Simple!
