It's not, it's a problem of every package manager that do not use sources and checksums, like rust and python. Take a look at this article that does a better job then me at explaining the situation.

Thanks! I'm using too many of those IRL, plus I couldn't miss the opportunity to use "fudge" in a culinary context 😁

I'm Italian and I would try this. Also, fudge those "purists" of Italian food: every family has it's own recipe for everything different from their neighbors', there's no or little historical documents about dishes still served and most "based" Italian food was invented by Italian emigrants coming back home with inspiration from where they were.

Cuisine is mixing and experimenting, tradition is the death of good food.

I switched to Bazzite on my gaming rig a month ago and felt great. I managed to install and mod Skyrim effortlessly and yesterday I installed Tarkov and SPT with no problem whatsoever. Highly recommend.

But check if your favorite games are compatible, mainly the multiplayer ones: Tarkov can only be single player PvE, GTA is story mode only and forget about Destiny 2. Not a problem for me, plenty of alternatives, but you should check for yourself.

Exactly, that is IMHO a not-so-sane default that some application launcher adopts. Thankfully you can switch to a more "normal" behavior, it's a flag somewhere in the configuration menus for the application launcher, at least in KDE and in XFCE

All you are saying resonates too much with me.. thankfully I have to deal with Windows only at work (and in a really painful way), I've managed to switch my home to Linux or BSD, even my old gaming rig.

BTW I think the downvotes where because in your previous comment was not clear on which OS you were throwing shade πŸ˜…

I understand them: I am an old Linux user, used to the command line. In there, once upon a time, a command has only on way to be called, and that way was the name under which the command was known and distributed. Aliases were a personal customization made by the user for his own amusement. I am still under the assumption that if a program is presented to you as X, then X is the command to type to run said program. But I understand this is now not as obvious, even in the Linux world.

I am two of these things and if you see me talking it means that tragedy is upon us.

That's part of the issue: in the picture is written "Terminal", so I expect to find it if I search Terminal. I don't care what is the real name under the hood, I'm searching something for the name you have given me.

Thank you, but it won't be necessary. I think my issues are hardware -related, or simply my NAS is under too much load from other applications πŸ˜… Other than that I should try with the Chromecast as you suggested, maybe the problem was the shitty client application...

If I don't succeed I'm still good with Plex, and I have a raspberry hanging around for an emergency Kodi.

In my case, I was not able to make jellyfin work: transcoding issues, lagging, client disconnection or unresponsive... Plex worked flawlessly out of the box with the same hardware and the same library.

From time to time I try Jellyfin again, but things never change ..

He's right: I use only 501s straight, and after a year at most the fabric between the thighs is very thin if not ripped (yes, I am chubby).

On the other side, I have an old pair of jeans of unknown maker dismissed from my uncle which I use weekly for yard work: ten years in my possession, unwashable stains, destroyed sockets, but the fabric is still perfect.
