  • Unlike other popular distros like Mint, Bazzite works in a way that prevents programs from messing with each other or with the system itself, so you’re much more unlikely to ever break it. And if you do break it, there’s a quick option to go back to the last working version.

    Most Linux distros running on BTRFS with a snapshot manager like Timeshift or Snapper give you the same functionality, but I do get the appeal of Bazzite/immutable distros, especially for people who are new to Linux.





  • I waited 8 years for fiber where I live, and I even went door to door telling my whole neighborhood that there was a cheaper, faster alternative to Comcast, and all we had to do was sign up. When it was finally getting it installed, the technician told me that our neiborhood only got fiber because a local criminal organization had bought a couple cherry pickers and was stripping the copper from pole to pole.

    Apparently it takes someone stealing the copper repeatedly before the telcos will invest a dime on upgrades.
