Vaxry is an asshole (the Hyprland maintainer)

1. I’d say go for a rolling, maybe do updates on weekends
2. The students will very likely appreciate the customizability of Plasma or Cinnamon; if you want them to focus on work, GNOME (probably with some extensions) would be better. Tilers are a bad idea, because they take some getting used to
3. Doesn’t really matter, company distros might be paid tho, and that can obviously get expensive
4. Wayland if your DE has good support (i.e. is GNOME or Plasma), otherwise X
5. Btrfs’ snapshotting capabilities might be useful to rollback the system to something working if the students fuck something up
6. Immutable without sudo access should be the safest to hand over to people that you don’t want to ruin anything
7. I don’t know enough about specific purpose distros

If you already know Nix, NIxOS would be a good choice

I think something like

%wheel ALL= NOPASSWD: /bin/apt

should be the right way of disabling the password for apt.

They do! /bin has the executables, and /usr/share has everything else.

I don’t think there really is an easy way to do this. For sure not as easy as reinstalling.

Thanks, I switched from unconfigured (but working because magic) networkmanager to pure wpa_supplicant on my NixOS system yesterday and I definitely noticed frequent reconnecting.

Found this recently:

it became a thing yesterday lol

No way, Debian uses systemd, and systemd uses systemd-journald for logging, and doesn’t need cron, because it has timers.

My real first time using Linux was with Pop!_OS in April last year.

I’d say make a group to fix permissions, put everything in a common directory (that has rw permissions for that group), and symlink everything to the standard locations.

I haven’t used Wayland for about a week overall in my year of using Linux.

Unfortunately, it’s not easy to read on my phone either.

why would you make a new line in the middle of a sentence?

install mesa and codecs from rpmfusion

op most likely doesn’t know what that means

You haven’t seen my Firefox with Sidebery extension and 544 tabs open, not even remotely organized into categories, no tab stacks with three levels and folders :P I should clean it up some day

Do you mean OnlyOffice? OpenOffice is the old thing that LibreOffice is a fork of.

the README literally says you should disable agetty for the tty you want to run Ly on.

According to Repology, Debian Unstable has ~40k, the AUR has ~90k, and nixpkgs unstable has almost 110k.

Where did you get those huge numbers from?
