Did you ever find the missing packets?

That’s nice, I think I’ll switch from Firefox ESR on Debian!

You could package it and install with pipx

Crunchbang (#!) linux breathed live into some very wimpy hardware I’ve had in the past.

Loved the minimalism.

Desktop: Macintosh (<X) -> Windows (XP-10) w/occasional Ubuntu dual-boot (various DEs) -> Debian + Gnome

Server: Ubuntu LTS -> Debian

I’ve also had a number of used thinkpads over the years where I mostly ran Xubuntu and crunchbang.

I still boot into Windows every month or so if I need to model something in Rhino (CAD). Couldn’t get it working in Wine and my 12 YO computer isn’t performant enough to run it in a VM. The last thread remaining and waiting to be cut…

I plan to pay for Immich

I’m really hoping for the 3D options. If OpenSCAD isn’t a good fit then I still boot to Windows for CAD :(

I’ve had a particularly difficult time with CUDA/Pytorch in WSL. Also with Windows not reclaiming memory…

But don’t get me wrong, WSL has helped a lot when I’ve needed to use Windows at work.

In my experience:

• No lockfile, and using the third party conda-lock is clunky
• Painfully slow solver, although the libmamba solver came to the rescue
• Conda-forge can lag behind pypi by weeks, depending on the package

Interesting, but if I have to use Windows then I would consider Conda depending on my dependency situation.

I don’t particularly like Conda, or Windows, but what I like even less is manually finding wheels for my project. For something like GDAL, I wouldn’t even try on Windows without Conda. I think it’s also easy for a beginner to get up and running with this setup.

My preferred setup is pyenv on Linux with poetry :)

I remember getting a Ubuntu CD box set many years ago when I ordered free disks in the mail as a teenager. The box was well constructed, prints of high quality and the CD labels were especially sharp.

Crazy how physical media was king back then.

After getting used to the vanilla Gnome flow, at home and at work, even MacOS starts to feel a bit clunky.

Love the minimalism of Gnome with the stability of Debian.

If the open source release is adequate then you can just continue using it… Or fork for your needs.

Sadly, still dual boot for rhino, in a VM I’m just not getting enough performance out of my aging pc.

A Linux version would be a dream come true.

I like to require access to 22 via IP whitelist and all services on SSL behind a reverse proxy. Doesn’t leave much surface to attack.

Same! Debian with gnome on my desktop and work laptop. Raspbian on my Pi4. Headless Debian in the cloud…

I’m also a gnome shell convert. Down with the taskbar!

You can always set watchtower to blindly pull for you. If it’s going to be broken anyways, might as well automate the process.
