A buddy of mine left his sudo user unlocked... I had to troll...

Aww, they were a total @Noob!
(not intended to be offensive)

He deserves it. He uses Ubuntu 🤢

@Dacexi completely objectively speaking why is Ubuntu a bad distro for a server?
I'm used to Centos servers and have used Ubuntu only for small http servers.

@Noob you didn't mention it was a server. I thought he had to stand using unity.

@Dacexi You know the newest ubuntu doesn't use unity... Also it's your choose u don't need to stay default...

@eragonder but unity and gnome is buggy and bloated like hell. Also, what's the point of running Ubuntu if you're just gonna replace it?

@Dacexi I need to say I also don't use stock Ubuntu because of bloatware and Gnome/Unity. I switched to KDE Neon which is basically Ubuntu with Plasma without useless software.

@eragonder yeah, I used neon for a while, worked great but then more and more bugs started appearing until it was basically useless, therefore I switched to Arch yesterday (and now I have to tell EVERYONE I use Arch) :p

@Dacexi Holy shit nice. I'm pretty sure arch is the best out there but I'm to scared to try to install it on one of my pcs

That is hilarious. Very artistic, well done.

Nah... too obviously a joke, where’s the adverts!?

@jamescodesthing *Canonical recommends upgrading to Windows 10* would be seriously f***ed Up 😃

@ttomovcik I was thinking about that. Since there are already strings about updates in the motd.

http://www.microsoft.com”at would be horrific and funny.

Can you do an “open http://www.microsoft.com” from a bash profile? I’d love to see it.

Haha

@Dacexi Ubuntu is, objectively speaking, not a bad distro. It is very stable and has a big community. Although Arch is catching up, especially because of Distros like Manjaro, which make installation easy, Ubuntu is a very good distro for beginners.
KDE neon on the other hand just uses ubuntu as it's base. You probably mean, that KDE neon's desktop got buggy. That is the fault of the package maintainers at KDE, not Ubuntu.

I would really like to know, when you experienced problems with KDE neon. I am using it for almost a year and had little bugs throughout the time, which have been fixed on the next minor release everytime.

@Scrumplex alright I get you :)
The most obvious problems I've had with KDE Neon:
1. My primary screen runs at 59.95 hz instead of 60 so I get A TON of screen tearing.
2. Kwin randomly crashes when opening electron apps (discord, vs code, slack, devRantron)
3. Randomly slowing down to the point where it's basically unusable for like 2 minutes.

And I have a top of the line PC so it's not because of hardware, none of these things happen in i3.

@Dacexi for the tearing: I guess you have an nvidia card:
Open the nvidia x server settings and on Display Configuration click on Advanced and check "Force Full Composition Pipeline". That is a common issue with KWin + NVIDIA Propietary Drivers.

2: Can't say anything about that. Didn't experience myself.

3: Didn't experience that too.

You could try installing KDE on arch and see if the issue still persists. But if you think i3 suits your needs, then ignore this prior sentence. I just love seeing people use KDE. It is a great project.

@Scrumplex KDE was okay but I like i3 better :)

Also, I tried basically every fix I could find for screen tearing and nothing worked :/
