  • It’s more a philosophy for Unix systems. When we say that “everything is a file”, we’re saying that even devices should show up on the filesystem (/dev), even network ports should show up on the filesystem, even processes should show up on the filesystem(/proc), etc… and that is as opposed to having a different system abstraction handle those functions instead.

    Of course when you look deeper into it, linux does not explicitly follow that rule, it more just adheres to it. It’s more a guideline than an explicit statement of fact







  • I’ve been using the K380 and pebble mouse. It’s not large, so probably not for you. You can buy the pebble 2 combo now. I bought a basic leather case for the k380 which works fine.

    It got a weird issue a couple years in where it never powers down, so for travel I remove one of the AAA batteries and slide that into the case next to it. The pebble mouse has never acted up. A couple of keycaps on the k380 also fell off before I got to he case, so I would say that if you’re carrying it in a backpack I’d definitely recommend getting a case.

    Overall, though, it keeps chugging without much more issue. I also reconfigured the keycaps to reflect my Dvorak layout without any special tools.








  • In the case of steam and web browser, the containerization means I can control their access permissions via flatseal. This adds another layer of security, since they’re both web-accessing applications, and it’s easier than setting up a VM to run those applications.

    Yeah, that’s the nature of mass adoption, is that people you don’t like start coming into the community.

    This always happens. A community stays intact so long as it stays niche, but once it reaches mass adoption, that community splinters into smaller communities.

    The ‘Linux community’ will eventually cease to exist and will be replaced with communities who use Linux in specific fashions.
