Obsidians great! I do wish it was open-source though :(
Busters hidden treasure is one of the best genesis games!! I'd put it right up there with sonic
I do! I daily drive SourceMage Linux. I found it while I was spelunking distrowatch (along with its brother, lunar linux - they both branched from sorceror back in the day) I ended up having so much fun tinkering with it I ended up writing some spells (packages) for it and ended up getting pulled on as a spell maintainer :) I don't really have a use-case for it; Before it, I was hopping between arch and void linux. I do really enjoy the freedom I have though with SMGL - it's a source-based distro, so it's similar to Gentoo in a sense. Plus I just enjoy having a deeper look into things! I break stuff often and sometimes spells don't install correctly/have problems but solving those issues just makes it that much more fun :) I do highly recommend it for anyone looking into trying out a source-based distro and Gentoo doesn't interest them. (we're #sourcemage on libre.chat IRC, come say hi if you'd like, or if you need help installing, i'll happily walk anyone through the process!)
For me at least, waynergy doesn't solve my issues, as I host my kb/m on Linux and share with a Windows PC (no builds for windows, and I can't get it to work with barrier for some reason) I ended up just buying a USB switch which works, but it's way slower .. but I love hyprland so it's a net gain I guess
A ruby-written window manager would be too cool, I'd check it out! Although unfortunately I've switched to Wayland months ago and I know Wayland is a lot harder to write for... ah well :)
Looks awesome, I love Ruby!! For even more ruby you could swap bspwm with subtle, whose config file is written in ruby :) (subtle itself isn't though sadly)
I don't, I'm an atheist. I grew up in a very strict christian household (my dad took away my yugioh cards and my Harry Potter books for being "demonic" lmao) kinda turned me off to religion.
Very true! Well hey those are still some great ideas - would be really nice to see something like that exist for sure. Keep us updated on the project! Always love seeing new ruby stuff
Yep, Joplin is great too, that's what I use currently! I also like that it has built-in syncing with nextcloud and dropbox; as far as I know, obsidian only has their own paid-for syncing (unless you sync externally like the person below using syncthing)
I'll eat my hat if I see anyone else here using this hehe
Yeah it's honestly hard to get set up - we haven't had a new ISO in a solid decade so the only way to install currently is via tarball. Our installation guide though is pretty good, and we're always happy to help people getting it up-and-running :) I'm in the IRC 24/7 for the most part so i'm always available to assist. If you decide to, i'll see you in there! As for a burner laptop - you can install SMGL on just about any device (we have 32-bit support still!) I have SMGL installed on a few of my netbooks ;) ... compile times are less than savory though lol, 1+ day for glibc compilation, the misery...
(I will note though that the only huge downside to SMGL is that we don't have multilib support - 64-bit is 64-bit only, which means no native things like Steam that require 32-bit libs)
(( we have workarounds though, i've added flatpak to SMGL and steam runs perfect in it!))
I use RIF
It is! I mainly posted this to spread the word, SourceMage can always use more users :) We've actually been around almost as long as Gentoo!
Honestly, the times aren't too bad as long as you have a recent CPU! It definitely varies though - on my main PC, compiling glibc takes about 15 minutes, on my netbook that I had a smgl install on, it took about 20 hours lol
SourceMage! It's a source based distro like Gentoo. I've been using it as my main distro for a solid 10 months now, I'm very happy with it! We have flatpak so steam works great, as well as lutris and everything else. Definitely wouldn't recommend it to someone looking for simplicity though!
I've been using Source Mage for about a year now! It's a source-based distro like Gentoo. It's magic themed, so instead of repositories we have grimoires, and instead of packages we have spells :) my main reason for using it is because I tried it out a few years ago and the magic themed intrigued me. Eventually I decided to write some of my own spells (some important programs were missing that I wanted) I found them a lot easier to parse than gentoos ebuilds personally. But after I'd been sending PRs for a few months, I got added to the team as an official maintainer!
it's a really fun distro to use, if not a bit hard to get up-and-running (only tarball-based install, we used to have ISOs but they're out of date for now) I've put a lot of work into getting it how i like it, i enjoy the tinkering aspect of it :) its fun
