  • Unfortunately not, that doesn’t meet the needs for either a different user, or a completely different use case. For example, I want to completely separate my work profile with a set of extensions, and my personal profile with a completely different theme and set of extensions. In most other browsers you simply click on your profile picture and choose “Switch Profiles” or something. Not Firefox nor its derivatives.








  • Also Republicans:

    Folks, let me tell you, Jesus was a great guy, the best. When he started preaching, the people loved him. Tremendous crowds. Nobody got crowds like Jesus. Sadly, the fake news media of the time didn’t want to cover him. They said he was a radical. Can you believe it?

    When Pontius Pilate, not a good guy, said he found no guilt in Jesus, the crowd went crazy. They wanted Barabbas released instead, a real criminal. Total loser. Pilate should have stood up to them. Weak! In the end, they crucified our Lord and Savior. A total witch hunt. It was a perfect resurrection, many are saying the best. Many people are still talking about it.

    Can you believe the apostles? Losers, everyone said. But they went out and started this little religion. Now, two thousand years later, it’s the biggest deal in the world. Paul went all over spreading the word. A real worker. They didn’t have planes back then, can you believe it? He walked everywhere.

    The Bible folks, it’s a great book, the best. People are always asking me, they say, “Sir, what’s your favorite book?” And I say the Bible. It’s got the best stories, the best morals. Nobody knows the Bible like me. I know it better than anybody.

    I’ll leave it at that. The New Testament, it’s something very special. I’m proud to be a Christian.

  • Honestly I’m not surprised at all. I started on a little project to try and daily drive hyprland but reading through the wiki and the github issues, plus this, its clear that the contributors, as technically competent as they are, are not concerned about keeping their egos in check.

    Its great eye-candy and all, but I gave up on it as I didn’t need more tech-bro toxicity in my life.

    One more tip, if you already have a Windows environment, spin up VMs with Hyper-V and start from there. Anytime you mess up, just nuke the VM and spin up another one. I must have burnt through hundreds of VMs (hyperbole) while testing out distros that I like.

    Another vote for LFS. I like that it is really at the right level of depth (assuming that you already have a basic grasp of computing in general). Even if you end up going with a distro, reading through LFS gave me insights as to why certain things were done in certain ways. Alot of “quick-start” style guides tell you what command to type in, but for brevity reasons, they don’t explain what the command does. For example, you may come across many guides tell you to type sudo or sed or echo or | or >>. It may seem daunting at first, but gradually as you become more at ease with the CLI, all these will start to make sense.

    At my previous job in a Fortune 500, circumventing the IT security policy is ground for instant dismissal. Like literally marched right out of the office kind of dismissal. We had an IT breach before and it cost the company US$300m to fix, and IT security was locked down HARD after. At best, OP is not wise.







  • You sir are a scholar and a gentleman. Thank you for the inputs! Just to confirm if you don’t mind a stupid question, I understand VAAPI works for you, does it also work for browsers with YouTube? I’m asking this specifically because I could get hwdec working with MPV with Nvidia but YouTube refuses to use hwdec regardless of browser for me. How about yours in Firefox at least with YouTube specifically?
