Wiztree and Treesize are both much faster.

Windirstat is still relevant… But slow.

I had to skip 3, two would dox me, one was a private Google doc.

Wait, is packagespend included in totalspend? Or do you have to combine them to get the real total?

Well it wasn’t until a couple weeks ago 😬 Enjoy!

Lol, I’ll take it

Hey hey, awesome! Yeah it’s super fun. And if you’re good at it (I’m not) it can be super creative!

My buddies and I, and likewise those in this community, try to stick to the standard alphabet arrangement, so we can all read each other’s stuff. Though we do dabble in other puzzlery, using basic Elian as a layer of obfuscation.

Welcome and enjoy!

Nice! All the more reason to go with a distro that’s already suited to your needs. Just my opinion, obviously 🤷‍♂️

It’s more stable. But as I understand, it doesn’t come with any proprietary drivers or blobs, so you’ve got to do an amount of tinkering and configuring to get it running for gaming. Especially if you’ve got Nvidia GPU.

Whereas with nobara or bazzite, those features are baked in already, by professionals.

You need them either way, so my question is, who do you trust more? Yourself? Or the developers behind the gaming oriented flavors of Fedora?

I went with Bluefin, based on silverblue, based on Fedora. It has all the gaming stuff I need, plus like bazzite, it’s immutable (ish), so while it’s harder to do some stuff the normal Linux way, it’s also significantly more stable, because nothing I do or install ever touches the core operating system files. I can’t break anything, and this makes me happy 😁

A way to softly encrypt/obfuscate your handwriting. Fun to get into with friends!

Thanks for the information!

What filter would you use? I’ve never played with abs because I didn’t want to have to vent an enclosure outside, especially in the winter. But if it could all stay inside that’d be great.

I have a cat. Cat tax:

Thanks!

That’s good to know, maybe I’ll give it a go then 👌

Maybe I’ll take a crack at it then, thanks!

Thanks!

Thanks for the recommendations! PLA and PETG are all I’ve ever printed with.

Maybe I’ll look into buying a replacement one, I’d rather not worry about it 🤷‍♂️

Hmmm, I don’t remember it being this way when I bought it. I suppose it’s possible someone dropped it, I’ve had people watch my house over vacation. But then again, I didn’t align anything or even level the bed before I used it after storing it, you’d think it’d be at least a little out of whack?

I’m coming back to Linux after a hiatus. I’ve spent most of my time with the Debian flavors. Not afraid of the command line, but not an expert either.

I’m trying out Bluefin right now, semi-immutable atomic os based on silverblue, based on Fedora.

On normal installs, I usually change and install enough stuff, that when it comes time to upgrade to the next os version, I’m sometimes not able to without introducing instability or it outright falling. The former more common than the latter.

Let’s just say I got used to reinstalling and starting from scratch, especially if I experimented too hard and broke something big like my DE or drivers.

So with bluefin I’m hoping to leave everything that’s core, alone. I’m trying to rely on flatpaks, app images, and distrobox for everything else.

So far so successful. I’ve only got a couple minor gripes, some limitations of flatpaks. But I’ve also only been at it for like a week, so we’ll see.

I guess my point is, flatpaks have a place 🤷‍♂️

Just the other day, I was trying to run a CLI program, one I won’t name.

I’m trying out a new immutable distro, and couldn’t install it, so I said hey these new flatpaks are supposed to be all a guy could ever need.

So I downloaded an app that uses this unnamed CLI program as its core. It was a GUI app. And while it worked just fine, I also had very little control over what exactly was gonna happen and how it would happen. I wanted to do some specific things I knew the core program could do, but there was no way to do it.

Eventually I dug deeper and realized I’m an idiot and the CLI program can run without installing it or any dependencies, so it was fine to use natively. I was able to accomplish my task quickly and efficiently after that, happy as a clam.

CLI and GUI both have their place. I prefer GUI most the time, honestly. But having some CLI chops can be extremely useful at times.
