If your sources track stable/testing or oldstable, you don’t need to change anything, that said I think the offical stance it to track the relase name (trixie bookworm etc)

My (very barebones) linux desktop has no way to ask me, it’s been removed.

It very good, more stable then original, sometimes the audio puts up a fight, but the last checkout I got worked great. I’ve pointed it at my steam copy and it even plays the music!

Nope it creates a little database, which you could manualy edit I suppose.

Is it really not written? I saw apt upgrade --update and knew the standard shortcut would be -u, but that didn’t work so I tried -U, bingo bongo off I went.

Yup

‘apt upgrade -U’

Heard of tuptime? I’ve been using it for a while now, I think I like it.

I don’t hate systemd, but I’ll all for having alternatives.

I have attention dilly dally, so virtual desktops are a huge help to stay on one task at a time.

It’s not dumb, stimulants are stimulants.

PC upgrades, I was labouring along with my 15yo desktop for too long, one day I thought it was time to treat myself, it runs so much cooler and with less wasted power.

du -sxk | sort -n gotta find those hidden files too!

I’m on cb++, desktop, laptops and server. looking forward to the wayland release.

Been using these guys for years.

How about “farkle” to take another term from the motoring world?
