Vaxry is an asshole (the Hyprland maintainer)

1. I’d say go for a rolling, maybe do updates on weekends
2. The students will very likely appreciate the customizability of Plasma or Cinnamon; if you want them to focus on work, GNOME (probably with some extensions) would be better. Tilers are a bad idea, because they take some getting used to
3. Doesn’t really matter, company distros might be paid tho, and that can obviously get expensive
4. Wayland if your DE has good support (i.e. is GNOME or Plasma), otherwise X
5. Btrfs’ snapshotting capabilities might be useful to rollback the system to something working if the students fuck something up
6. Immutable without sudo access should be the safest to hand over to people that you don’t want to ruin anything
7. I don’t know enough about specific purpose distros

If you already know Nix, NIxOS would be a good choice

I think something like

%wheel ALL= NOPASSWD: /bin/apt

should be the right way of disabling the password for apt.

They do! /bin has the executables, and /usr/share has everything else.

I don’t think there really is an easy way to do this. For sure not as easy as reinstalling.

Thanks, I switched from unconfigured (but working because magic) networkmanager to pure wpa_supplicant on my NixOS system yesterday and I definitely noticed frequent reconnecting.

Found this recently:

it became a thing yesterday lol

He confirmed in the premiere chat that the broken wallpaper is a direct hbomberguy reference.

I don’t understand the people who say it’s long, like no it isn’t, 1:15:24 is a completely reasonable (if not even a bit short) time for the topic.
