The main “instability” I’ve found with testing
or sid
is just that because new packages are added quickly, sometimes you’ll have dependency clashes.
Pretty much every time the package manager will take care of keeping things sane and not upgrading a package that will cause any incompatibility.
The main issue is if at some point you decide to install something that has conflicting dependencies with something you already have installed. Those are usually solvable with a little aptitude
-fu as long as there are versions available to sort things out neatly.
A better first step to newer packages is probably stable
with backports
though.
Not much use to go Ubuntu or Mint, unless you have specific issues with Debian that don’t happen with those. Even then, it may be one apt install
away from a fix.
If you want to try out BSD, power to you. I wouldn’t experiment on a backup computer though, unless by backup you just mean you want to have the spare hardware and will format it with Debian if you ever need to make it your main computer anyway.
Otherwise, just run Debian!

Instead of being a dick about it, why don’t you show what they’re doing and why you don’t like it, so we can all be educated and/or have a conversation about it, so everyone can decide for themselves if it’s a problem for them?
They’re also prioritising a few great and much needed QoL improvements like vertical tabs, tab grouping and a new Profile Management system!

Stability is no longer an advantage when you are cherry picking from Sid lol.
This makes no sense. When 95% of the system is based on Debian stable
, you get pretty much full stability of the base OS. All you need to pull in from the other releases is Mesa and related packages.
Perhaps the kernel as well, but I suspect they’re compiling their own with relevant parameters and features for the SD anyway, so not even that.
Why would they manually package them? Just grab the packages you need from testing
or sid
. This way you keep the solid Debian stable
base OS and still bring in the latest and greatest of the things that matter for gaming.
I don’t think I’ve ever come across a DNS provider that blocks wildcards.
I’ve been using wildcard DNS and certificates to accompany them both at home and professional in large scale services (think hundreds to thousands of applications) for many years without an issue.
The problem described in that forum is real (and in fact is pretty much how the recent attack on Fritz!Box users works) but in practice I’ve never seen it being an issue in a service VM or container. A very easy way to avoid it completely is to just not declare your host domain the same as the one in DNS.
If they’re all resolving to the same IP and using a reverse proxy for name-based routing, there’s no need for multiple A records. A single wildcard should suffice.
Man, that brings back memories! XGH is the OG agile methodology.
Not sure if this is helpful in any way, but it might give you some clue.
100./8 addresses are reserved for CG-NAT.
This is probably the IPv4 address your modem/router is receiving from the ISP.
3rd party cookies make tracking users easier when the same cookie can be used on many websites.
Firefox does 2 things to protect you from that: it blocks known trackers cookies by default; and for the others it isolates them per domain so that kind of tracking doesn’t happen. That ensures you’re not tracked and at the same time it doesn’t break any functionality.
If you want to completely block them you can. There’s more info here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/third-party-cookies-firefox-tracking-protection
I might pick it back up some day but at the moment I have other projects going on at the moment.
I’m still using Proxmox myself but unfortunately it’s all fairly manually configured.
I started writing a Terraform provider for Proxmox a while ago.
Unfortunately, the API is a massive mess and the documentation is not very helpful either. It was a nightmare and I eventually gave up.
I’ve been running a 7900XTX for months without issue. Only thing that was missing was some stuff around power setting, fan curve etc but even that I think has been fixed in recent kernels.
Run sudo dmesg | grep amdgpu
and look for errors.
You may have a firmware file missing, for instance. If that’s the case, it’s an easy fix - just download the firmware files from the kernel tree and put them wherever your system wants them.
This is how I do it on Debian but it should be easy enough to adapt to whatever distribution you’re using (it might be exactly the same tbh): https://blog.c10l.cc/09122023-debian-gaming#firmware
K3s is k8s
lol at the downvote. K3s is k8s. The very first 2 words in its website are Lightweight Kubernetes

For what it’s worth you can get uBO on Orion browser right now.
Last time I tried to use that browser it was too buggy for me though.
