>Oh fuck yeah I'm going to install Bazzite straight away to run my favorite containers!! I'm literally so excited to run containers you guys, containers are my favorite software to use, God I fucking love containers.
Why is this a selling point for an operating system? Who is actually outright ENTHUSED about containers when they could just be running regular bloat-free software?

Containers provide process (quit calling everything "app" you retarded mouth-breathers) segregation without the ridiculous overhead of full-blown virtualization. It's not ideal, but it's a huge advance compared to "program <just_trust_me_bro.exe> requires administrator access, Y/N?"

What's still missing is a better file system. Tag-based seems the best option, but is not visually easy to convey.

try installing the same package with two different versions on arch
also you can't install new packages on arch without upgrading your entire distro, that's exactly the same problem to debian

All these fags that weren't alive back then I swear.

Windows 3.xx was considered decent because that's all people really knew other than DOS back then. It did more than DOS and still allowed you to run your DOS shit without much trouble. So it wasn't outright hated.

Windows 95 was shilled worldwide as revolutionary but was pretty hated due to constant BSoD problem. Win98 was the same but considered more tolerable because it had all the updates for Win95 bundled in (mostly USB support was all anyone cared about). The entire 9x series was considered horrible.

Windows 2k was beloved because NT actually got decent by then. It still ran most of your Win 16/32-bit and DOS shit. Although, a lot of people (/v/ermin) cried about how it wouldn't run games despite never having used it.

WinME was a huge joke and everyone thought it was shit. So many teenagers got stuck with shitty pre-builts when it came out. No idea why but at that time everyone was buying them for their children for the first time. No self respecting person wanted it. I made a lot of money installing Win2k for people back then.

WinXP was considered a worse 2k and the GUI was laughed at by everyone. It didn't become tolerable until SP2 and most people only moved on from 2k because of Microsoft forcing people over. It also ate far more RAM and was never as stable.

Vista was shit and widely hated like ME. Windows 7 was basically Vista with some bugs fixed so was in the same boat as 98. Most people preferred to stay on XP for good reasons.

I've probably used Windows 7 the most, simply because that's what was out while I was in high school and uni, but I don't actually have any memories of it in particular. It wasn't super good, and it wasn't dogshit, was just kinda basic and generic. I remember more of my dad using Win95, and I was only 4 by the time 98 came out.

Kinda, yeah. It's a very 'alright' OS.

I only remember that XP locked up frequently in the worst ways imaginable due to buggy software, requiring full power cycle. But it also ran the largest number of obscure indie games that don't work even on Windows 7

no one liked windows 10 auto installing itself on their 7 system. i remember before 10 came out in the RC stages i had installed it on a thinkpad to testbed it and it would routinely uninstall the graphics driver due to "known compatibility issues" this continued into full release and it took years for Microsoft to stop uninstalling random shit on your computer for vague compatibility reasons, plus it was slow as shit and still is, you couldnt control updates, one of the major releases around 2018 just outright broke drivers and only kept a rollback feature for 10 days, most of the people who brought me their computers for these issues needed a whole reinstall, and guess what, your windows 7 product key that 10 upgraded itself with could not be used to reinstall 10, so the customer had the options of going back to 7 or if they actually liked 10, pirating it. Now my main local customers are people whos computers installed 11 on their own or bricked itself with windows update and they are more thrilled than ever to have LTSC installed. People come up to me in public and thank me that their computer isnt sitting at an update screen for 10 hours, no one did that for 8, no one did that for vista. 10 is only reflected positively upon because 11 doubled down on how shit it is

"Better" depends on what you're looking for but the selling points of CachyOS are easier installation than base Arch and packages with optimizations for modern hardware that can give a modest performance increase.

/hsg/ is about learning and expanding your horizons. Know all about NAS? Learn virtualization. Spun up some VMs? Learn about networking by standing up a OPNsense/PFsense box and configuring some VLANs. There's always more to learn and chances to grow. Think you’re god-tier already? Setup OpenStack and report back.

>What software should I run?
Install Gentoo. Or whatever flavor of *nix is best for the job or most comfy for you. Jellyfin/Emby/Plex to replace Netflix, Nextcloud to replace Googlel, Ampache/Navidrome to replace Spotify, the list goes on. Look at the awesome self-hosted list and ask.

>Why should I have a home server?
De-botnet your life. Learn something new. Serving applications to yourself, your family, and your frens feels good. Put your tech skills to good use for yourself and those close to you. Store their data with proper availability redundancy and backups and serve it back to them with a /comfy/ easy to use interface.

I've got one of the previous gen Apple TV 4Ks currently for Plex.

I haven't yet tried Swiftfin, but the other day, I was finally watching the latest Monogatari thing and noticed all the signs were weirdly distorted; I thought, "did motbob just fuck up really bad here somehow", then I remembered I was using Infuse -- switched back to Plex (libmpv) and magically everything was perfect.
And then last night, on my desktop, I was just opning some DVD as a test, used VLC to check the menus, and I have no idea what was causing it, but it felt like it was stuttering during the demuxing. Again, just opened it in mpv, perfect.

I want to switch off of Plex so badly, and I've got a good opportunity this coming week to do it, but man, the idea of exclusively vlckit or Infuse doesn't give me confidence. And from what I could tell, the official Android TV app uses ExoPlayer or something currently? Are there any solid TV interfaces for Jellyfin that are mpv-based under the hood?
>>
>>107831168
I haven't ever looked at the Jellyfin codebase, but ORMs are inevitably helll, from my experience, every time. Raw dogging prepared statements is honestly ideal, imo, for maintainability. I'm very surprised every time I've checked in on Jellyfin, there's always some "and we finally switched to EF Core, for real for real this time!" for like four years now.

Wtf is the structure of this like? I'm kind of terrified to look; even redoing all the serialization/deserialization for one of the most fucked MMO projects, converting over to Postgres from some ghetto DIY binary-per-player on disk that'd then get passed around over the network to the different worlds, wasn't more than a couple of weeks or so at most.

Is there something about their data that makes this way more complex than I'd have imagined, or is this just some scenario where nobody has the motivation to fully commit to it for a month?

About Xah Lee, I decided to finally watch some of his streams, and started with the old ones from around 6 years ago. They are not very interesting content wise but I was surprised by how reasonable, well spoken, and frankly kind of cute he was. Sharing random wiki articles he came across, talking passionately about niche subjects while showing his blog posts, and messing around in emacs. Very comfy. But since a couple years ago and especially now he seems very unpleasant in his streams, even though his life seems more comfortable? I wonder why his personality changed like that.

Well, them being so buggy certainly doesn't help. Then again, maybe I'm just doing something wrong. I might ask about this on the emacs mailing list.

Yes, emacs' UI completely stopped responding, including to C-g. I don't remember which signal I used to kill it, I'll make note of it next time it happens.
