Second impression of Garuda (Arch based). My first impression was the dragonized version, which is KDE with lots of mods to make it Mac like, but with extra window animations.

I like things simple, so when I tried Garuda again, I installed the Gnome version. Other than some weirdness getting my Nvidia card working with Wayland, it has run better than anything else on my laptop.

Fully agree with this. There will be a slight learning curve since it will be different from what your used to, but it's friendly enough to figure out.

If you know the windows program you want to use just search something like "Linux alternative for x" (sometimes there is specific KDE or Gnome progs)

Call me a socialist, but the moment the tech was proven either the US or some UN based org should have eminent domained and brought Starlink.

That way there wouldn't be multiple companies sending tens of thousands of satellites into space. And hypothetically there would be a greater expectation of equal access. Oh and access wouldn't be at the whim of a pretty billionaire.

Ha, I did the same thing. Was getting really tired of pip issues and attempting to use pyenv and messing up a lot. Figured I'd start clean.

Didn't realize so much depended on python and ended up needing to rebuild the whole thing.

Now I don't mess with python on my host and only use VMs for Dev or messing around.

SOLUTION:

Here is the solution I came up with:

pub struct Configuration {}

impl Configuration {
    fn get std::str::FromStr>() -> Result {
        Ok(T::from_str("1234");
    }
}

fn main() {
    let my_conf_val = Configuration::get();
}

Afraid this might have been the case, if Ogeon's suggestion doesn't work out, I'll probably end up with multiple getters, one per type. There aren't that many anyway

Thank you!

Yes! It shouldn't be difficult to purchase a house, but when we were looking, none of the seller agents would even talk to us until we had a buyers agent 🙄

Any Ubuntu affiliated distro is required to use snaps, so Kubuntu will use them. Startup times are terrible, but running performance should be the same.

Another simple distro to try would be either Mint or Pop-OS. Both are still Ubuntu based, but without snaps

Mint's interface (Cinnamon) is similar to Windows, Pop-OS uses a modified GNome

Self hoster of Invidious, I've just setup a docker instance with a Watchtower docker container running too for auto updates. No real maintenance needed.

There are definitely times where things will stop working for a bit (due to Google shananagans) but the devs seem on top of it. So it doesn't take too long before it's working again.
