Lol, which is funny as every torrent client gives the example of downloading Linux isos (which is probably for legality reasons)

Good, Maybe a list of “Pirate Distros” would help people.

Yeah, but the keyword is large. Because there are many community distros that are hardly updated. Case and point, Spiral Linux is still stuck in bookworm, even though this week 450 people downloaded its iso.
Depends really. Small community distros serve a purpose as they either provide some niche configurations or pre-installed software that major distros don’t, or they are made because they are trying to fork a major distros that is becoming too corporate with risk of becoming less open source. Now within community distros there are reputations. Debian is famously a community driven distro that hundreds of other distros are based on, and so is arch. They are pretty stable and will last more and more. Also, corporate distro doesn’t guarantee longevity or stability either, because there are several corporate projects that get abandoned and are picked up by communities.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Distro hot take: There's only one suitable distro for linux newbies
4·10 days agoIt’s not a hot take, but it only applies to specific type of newbies who want to keep using Linux like they use windows, because a newbie will stay a newbie on an atomic system. Those who actually wanna dwell into Linux and take full advantages of things like customizing & scripting, will feel restrained. But then again, only a newbie could really tell if that’s the case.
This is not a religion.
Tell that to arch evangelists

Cyberpunk 2077. I thought I would enjoy it as much as Witcher 3, nop. But then again, I played it few months after it came out. Heard it got better, so maybe I will try again one-day.
Windows -> Mandrake/Mandriva -> Fedora -> Ubuntu -> Debian -> Manjaro -> Arch -> NixOS -> CachyOS -> PikaOS
That’s a bold face lie. Our old cat comes running if she hears one of us crying or even coughing. She is genuinely worried and stays around till we are back to normal.

RetroGaming@lemmy.world•What's your greatest "gaming high" you've been chasing ever since? Please take care not to spoil anything, if you are going to be story-specific.English
2·5 months agoA lot of gaming highs from time to time that engulfed me into gaming completely.
The very first high was the OG Half Life. Before that I didn’t know that Games could have a story like that.
Then Max Payne 1&2, it was like playing a Noir Matrix movie.
Then GTA Vice City (and its soundtrack) hooked me up for a long time.
Then Far Cry 3 which has made me buy every subsequent Far Cry game ever since (yet to feel that again).
And the last one was “Assassin’s Creed Origins”, which being a fan of ancient Egypt, was a dream come true.
Well I am running a Mesh network with Gh.n powerline, and it’s very stable. Of course the Ethernet backend would be faster, but I don’t want cables running down in my corridor.
