so if i install debian 12 on my machine, can i just let it sit there for years or months??

like not doing anything, just a spare laptop in case i ever need one, what if i use it years after i installed debian on it?? i would have to update like 300 packages and would take a lot??

the most important question i have: can i program a whole operating system based on UNIX using ONLY python???

yes, not a unix os but rather unix-like, and i want to program all of it on python, is that possible?? even the kernel, i want it all python. i know most kernels use c++ or c* but maybe python has a library to turn c* into python?? i'm still sort of a beginner but thanks and i would appreciate the answers

[OC] my new profile picture
  • clever, good software, amazing art style. it's got everything, and the fursona's colors mix so nicely. i'm feeling.... a light 8 to a strong 9!!!

  • So apparently you can just, type the word eject into bash and it will pop open your disk drive
  • woa what the frick!! that actually scared me it's like 2001 space odyssey type of stuff

  • nop no i'm sorry, i'm a beginner still, so no arch yet

  • lemmy should tots let you post things to your own user profile
  • thanks for the suggestion, i may look into mbin later!!! it looks like a comfy fediverse platform!!!

  • lemmy should tots let you post things to your own user profile
  • "get your own fricking tots!!!"

  • lemmy should tots let you post things to your own user profile
  • that could work but that means anyone could join and post there right??? or is there a way to set a community private and make it so that only a specific person is allowed to post?? wait i think there is!!! maybe

  • lemmy should tots let you post things to your own user profile

    i don't want to bring the big forum website that lead to the creation of lemmy (red**t), but that site lets you create posts for your own profile, like, it treats your own user wall as if it was a "subreddit" of its own and, if you don't have any followers or don't have the followers button enabled not a lot of people will see your post, but at least you can just sort of use it for posting interesting or casual stuff. lemmy should totally implement that please!!! can you do that on lemmy?? i tried but there's not a way you can do it, i've been trying so if you know a way of creating posts on your profile, please let me know thank you

    edit: there were a few grammar mistakes,i'm sorry!!!

    Which default software do you replace after you install your distro?
  • i keep rhythmbox honestly because it helps me in organizing all my audio and music files and plus i don't have to keep opening the file manager to change the music, i can just press the forward button and it changes track!!

  • Deleted
    downvoted!!
  • thank you

  • why does everyone i know treat me like a child or if i was a very childlike person??
  • everything just screams "14 y.o girl" first of all i would like to tell you that i am, in fact, a 21 year old person who well, honestly i do like to type that way because 1. it makes me feel more human and definitely more connected to people and 2. it totally fosters a sense of honesty and makes me look more like a real person which, i am!!! and 3. everything's hyper?? well i'm sorry, but what would you expect from a person that is heavily involved in cool stuff like linux and programming and ui/ux design?? everything's gotta have some sense of coolness or radness, which i am always trying my best to give.

    adults are usually more reserved and "battle-worn" i apologize for this but i won that battle a long time ago and even if i lose to life itself then i will still get up with that same energy and that's something most people should learn about and apply to their daily lives, i really enjoy doing this and i hope everyone in the world learns how to be that truthfully. thank you.

    i'd also look at the wardrobe, especially if you're of smaller stature i am 5'10, i may have the height of a 16 year old but i am in no way a 16 year old, i'm sorry. oh and my wardrobe?? it's full of fruit of the loom t shirts of various colors and a lot of comfy cotton pants and well that's it.

    additionally, being an adult is often about taking responsibility. Sucking it up and doing the right thing oh.. well, i deeply apologize if i have not been doing that, but i have been doing that, i accept that i have, i've sucked up my pride and i have done and said the right thing, i don't want to sound like i'm bragging because honestly there's nothing to brag about here, but i promise you that i've done that and i will keep doing that. thank you so much for the advice

  • why does everyone i know treat me like a child or if i was a very childlike person??
  • i did get checked that before but they said no, no autism for me!!

  • why does everyone i know treat me like a child or if i was a very childlike person??
  • i will not stop being a furry, i deeply apologize. i shall stop or at least try to stop saying the word "like". i am grateful and i appreciate it

  • why does everyone i know treat me like a child or if i was a very childlike person??
  • but i am growing up and besides i have no other way of talking,i'm sorry, i'm still learning too but thank you for the advice!!

  • why does everyone i know treat me like a child or if i was a very childlike person??
  • yes, i posted it again but that's because i feel like i deleted it too soon, also really?? more mature at 14?? woa!! yea!! that seems like a very cool thing

  • [xfce] just classic gnome 2 style taskbar
  • yes of course!!

  • why does everyone i know treat me like a child or if i was a very childlike person??
  • most of the people i know are my same age or just a few years older, a very good friend of mine is 19 tho, and yea i think i look young, and i act ok, no swearing, stuff like that

  • what is your opinion on mastodon and other fediverse microblogging sites?? as opposed to forum-type websites
  • threadiverse woa, i like group discussion but i guess you could have that in the uhhmmm twitterverse too tho

  • what is your opinion on mastodon and other fediverse microblogging sites?? as opposed to forum-type websites

    microblogging is something used on a much more personal level while i think forum style social media is mostly for looking for answers and posting things you do, but microblogging social media sites are for that too. also, this is not meant to be offensive, but i think that since mastodon has been in the works for like a long time, it looks more polished than modern websites, so that can be an advantage it has

    why does everyone i know treat me like a child or if i was a very childlike person??

    so this happened to me yesterday, i was hanging out with a few of my relatives and we were doing a lot of stuff and we were having fun but i realized that when my relatives talk to each other they talk like proper adults because well, they are, like, they can swear and stuff, but when i talk to them they are like "yea buddy sure!!" or talk to me like as if i was some sort of young person, and even my friends do that same thing, all of them!!!! it feels like i'm not part of anyone's conversation which sucks but well it's fine!!!

    what happens if i get married to an american?? (i'm not seeking legal advice, i'm just curious!!)

    i met my boyfriend 7 months ago online and he's american and well i really love him, i'm from another country and while i do want to marry him someday i know i have to see him irl first for a few years, so, if i ever marry him (an american) in my country, what happens?? i know i do not get a green card instantly but, like, our marriage gets registered in my country, does it get registered in the u.s too?? i am just curious, thanks!!

    are the main developers and founders of gnome extremely angry at linux mint devs for making cinnamon??

    i guess it would make sense because the main philosophy behind cinnamon is to bring back old gnome2 and despise new gnome. it's almost like they're trying to make it better (i believe both cinnamon and gnome are awesome!!) and eventually make cinnamon the default de someday, has there been any sort of rivalry between the devs of both desktop environments?? like, i know it's not possible but what if a gnome update wouldn't let you install cinnamon and vice versa??

    would you suggest i delete all of my forum accounts and all my social media accounts??

    in favor of using ONLY MESSAGING SERVICES, public messaging services, sorta like discord if i want to make friends, because i realized that making friends is already hard enough and therefore it's harder to make friends in social media!! mostly because of the complicated ui!! dang it!! but yea if i were to ditch everything and instead use messaging services, PUBLIC messaging services like discord or even matrix, i think i would make friends more easily, that would make me very ok, plus i could show off more stuff that i've been working on like programming and get feedback and stuff, woa!! anyway what do you think please??

    how would you make a linux distro for extreme beginners in tech and elderly people??

    this is a topic i've been heavily involved with because i still consider myself to be someone who prefers using technology at a very beginner friendly level, plus it's very good when a linux operating system makes you feel right at home when it has a modern desktop environment. this is why i really like gnome, its simplicity and usability is something available for everyone, for beginners and for a lot of other people, but if you had to, say, rearrange xfce or kde for someone who was an elderly person or an absolute beginner so that they wouldn't have any trouble using linux, how would you do it? (screenshot is my current linux mint desktop, very simple and extremely user friendly!!!!)

    i will install linux mint xfce instead of xubuntu, what should i know??

    what should i know?? will it go faster than xubuntu? because it doesn't use any snap applications?, will it have a modern ui? because, no offense, xubuntu's ui looks very outdated and i know i can change it but i want something straight out of the box, i've seen screenshots of mint xfce and it sorta looks like GNOME!!! amazing woa!!yea linux mint let's go!! what will be the pros be for using linux mint xfce please?? over xubuntu

    edit: i've been using linux for 4 years now woa.. a huge trip yep!!!! my distro of choice was xubuntu, smol one wow!!! but now that i know mint has no snap and therefore no slowing down the laptop, i may go with that hey yea! so i'm not a newbie, i know the commands i know how to update wohoo!! and do all that stuff, basic things, thanks you

    in most gnu/linux distributions that use xfce or gnome, why is the default music/audio player rhythmbox??

    i like rhythmbox a lot and it's so great to use it as a music player but most of my music files don't even have any metadata it's just "song-name-author.opus" so it's a lot for me which is why i would use vlc instead yea!!! but anyway ummm why does xfce or gnome use rhythmbox??

    (question for the pro privacy people) would you suggest i use android without entering my google accounts??

    so instead of placing my google accounts on my android phone, can i just use them directly from the browsers i use?? i know i wouldn't be able to use google play but i mean i have aurora store. would this be usable in the long-term?? a good way of using an android phone?

    open source terminal client for email for linux! does that exist??

    i was just wondering because i do talk to my friends most of the time through email and since gmail lets you add mpop and mop3 to email clients i figured it would be an interesting idea to use an email client on the terminal with built in notifications and stuff, thanks so much
