Hell yes! I turned off location data for immich but now I can use this!

Any helpful tips or links to tutorials for this method?

See my other comment above. I’m quite comfortable using a terminal, but for the purposes of tweaking system files in their POSIX location. I don’t want temp files or symlinks or sandboxed/containerised packages. I want binaries, I wanna compile software from source. Immutable distros make this quite difficult. The file system is setup differently (on purpose of course).

I guess it’s less a criticism than it is a preference.

Wish it was supported in more countries.

Oh, your welcome. It’s a great rabbit hole. I remember venturing down it for the first time some years ago. I’ve since been able to build arcan from source and get pipeworld working on void linux. It’s not daily drivable yet, (not for me at least) but it works, and it’s cool as fuck.

Behold, the Linux phone:

The future is ARCAN!

Cod e the people passing the law are probably in the earlier generations… They don’t want to fuck themselves over

I kinda hope one day there is a “easy mode” Immutable distro, or perhaps atleast some kind of point-and-click GUI tools for managing something like flakes on a NixOS like system. I love the idea behind NixOS, but don’t want to learn a new programming language just to configure my system. It’ll get easier in the future I suppose. And when it does, I’ll be here for it. Obviously Bazzite is trying to be more beginner friendly which is cool, but it’s still quite a complicated system underneath the limited GUI options.

Of course it can be tinkered with, but it wasn’t really designed to be tinkered with in the same way that you can with a traditional Linux system. It’s designed to keep users from messing with system files with its strict containerised workflow. It’s certainly not targeted at users who’ll want to hack systemd services, customise kernel modules, tweak system files under /etc and /usr, or even compile software from source.

I acknowledge that it’s possible to create highly customised and reproducible systems with immutable distros, but it’s a paradigm shift compared to a traditional *nix system.

I’ve spent 20+ years refining my knowledge of linux and BSD, I haven’t got the patience to start over with these types of systems.

Please don’t get me wrong, I’m not at all criticising these systems for being different. They serve a completely different purpose —one that’s just not for me.

I did the same a few months ago. Installed bazzite just like you. Then installed fedora 42 workstation over it one week later.

While it’s designed to be plug and play, I found bazzite frustrating. But then again, I’m a Linux vet and I’m a tinkerer. I like to customise system configuration files. Immutable distros just weren’t for me.

But if you’re happy then that’s all that matters. Happy gaming!

I only visit Reddit is search results take me there for a specific reason. Otherwise, I’m hardcore as fuck

If you’re still using stock Android then I’m sorry to say that your efforts are somewhat wasted.

Please try GrapheneOS.

As for a free VPN alternative, check out URnetwork.

Lisa it’s your birthday, happy birthday Lisa!

You mean graphine? It’s actually really easy

Stop driving.

Fuck yeah, this on excellent news. No doubt they will also contribute to open source projects too, which will have a wider impact, v benefiting everyone. Denmark is the best.

Looks like it’ll have Android APK compatibility through waydroid. I guess this is one of the reasons why is needs heaps of ram.

I agree many meetings should be emails. But when meetings happen, generally someone takes minutes and notes down actions so, that covers that base I suppose. Secondly, if I’m your employer, or your client, and I call you with a request, or a job, then it’s probably in your best interest to get it done. Sure, a follow up email is sometimes warranted, but not always. People who refuse to use the phone to communicate verbally are only disadvantaging themselves.

That’s it, I’ve seen people use slurp. I couldn’t remember what it was called.
