Unless she uses Peacock. They seem to be the only streamer that's clinging to the 15 year old idea of just not supporting Linux.
That's awesome. I wish I knew about that years ago.
Sick! I just switched to Firefox nightly so I can use ublacklist on mobile.
Huh. Are you running any kind of exotic setup? What kind of bugs were they? Can you be sure they were Debian bugs and not hardware issues?
Also they put ads in search long before Windows did and as much as I hate Microsoft we should never forget that.
Sounds like you need an LTS.
I've used a lot of Ubuntu over the years starting on 9.04. Let me tell you the six months releases are ass and always have been.
Also I'm switching to Debian.
I think 100 dollars is more than enough money to cover a few bytes of text storage. It's not like they are storing megabytes of tracking meta data. And if they are that's even more reason to provide the service for free.
This method should work with any command that's installing files on your disk but it's probably not worth the headache when virtual environments exist for python.
Agreed. I hate anything auto updating on it's own because changes can break or remove features at any time.
I did Linux From Scratch recently and they have a brilliant solution. Here's the full text but it's a long read so I'll briefly explain it. https://www.linuxfromscratch.org/hints/downloads/files/more_control_and_pkg_man.txt
Basically you make a new user with the name of the package you want to install. Login to that user then compile and install the package.
Now when you search for files owned by the user with the same name as the package you will find every file that package installed.
You can document that somewhere or just use the find command when you are ready to remove all files related to the package.
I didn't actually do this for my own LFS build so I have no further experience on the matter. I think it will eventually lead to dependency hell when two packages want to install the same file.
I guess flatpaks are better about keeping libraries separate but I'm not sure if they leave random files all over your hard drive the way apt remove/apt purge does. (Getting really annoyed about all the crud left in my home dir)
They should make a new version of Linux From Scratch where all you get is the Linux kernel source code and you write the compiler and core utils yourself. Now that would be Linux.
