hi o/ im from south america, i see the #launchnotesfollow on HN. I really like the vibes and the idea. Ill probably be posting here often, while in the office. cya
I was curious of testing the Omarchy distribution this week just because I had some free time to work on it. I saw a lot of hate around it and kind of get the point but so far at least for what I have been doing it wasn't terrible (at least at the point of writing this) although I am not trying to convince anybody to use it. But it just remember me how much do I hate MS.
I think a lot of the pull around Omarchy is you get a riced desktop out of the box? Personally, I wouldn't really consider it for a number of reasons but I do appreciate a nice looking desktop.
If you want something similarly pretty but a bit more normal and less monolithic (who needs a whole 'distro' for what Omarchy provides anyway?) approach then I'd suggest Niri + Noctalia.

Woke up during the night for a short trip to the loo, got 'resumeโ going. All done in the morning. Ahh, coffee tastes better now!

Arch, because I feel you cannot use Linux without knowing how it works, and sway for window manager because it is highly stable, wholly keyboard driven, and tiling
Arch Linux with KDE. I like that Arch comes with nothing and is pretty vanilla. No bloat, and customisable. No major upgrades where 5 things break at once. Install once, and it's fine until the device has to be replaced. Only then usually do a fresh install. It's up to date, still pretty boring, and you learn a bit in the process.
i distro hoped a lot. Finally i found my cozy home with debian with kde. 3 years still running without a problem all the software i use works perfectly and the games run smoothly.
When I was 10, I thought I'd be a scientist
I wanted to tinker in a lab, doing something with beakers and bunsen burners
Making a difference.
As an adult, I sit in meetings and discuss who to fire next
I tinker with spreadsheets, doing something with LLMs and JIRA
Be enthusiastic

As young kid I dreamed of working with reel-to-reel machines
Cutting/splicing tape, happy accidents
As a teen I couldn't afford reel-to-reel but got decent with multi-track cassettes
Everyone was telling me digital was The Way (tm)
In my 30s, I finally learned how to use a DAW properly
In my 40s, I'm back to playing around with multi-tracks cassettes
There is no money in it, but I'm enthusiastic as I can be
(this is not so much as direct response as simply a response)

A bit of insomnia this early Tuesday morning. I call it โthe witching hourโ, whatever can go wrong, will go wrong and the brain is defenceless. Reality, of course, is more nuanced, but brain doesnโt care. :)

looking at the German public railway system (DB), I always wonder if the stereotypes of timeliness and precision were ever actually true. Surely someone must've figured out by now how off they are? These trains are always late and / or broken.
Lot of wildlife run-ins on my neighborhood trails this week. Ran past three deer yesterday, including a buck. Then a hare as I made it to the top of San Pedro Mountain this morning.
