Re: [Trisquel-users] FSF adds PureOS to list of endorsed GNU/Linux distributions

2017-12-29 Thread mistahdarcy
I installed PureOS as a virtual machine the same day the FSF announced its  
endorsement. Honestly, I like it a lot. I've always been a fan of Gnome and  
personally can't stand the MATE desktop environment that Trisquel 8 is using.  
I got rid of that and switched it to Gnome right away.


I took the plunge today and installed PureOS on my desktop. Everything is  
working great except for WiFi. We'll see how it plays out, but I have high  
hopes for the future (at least more hope than I do with Trisquel).

Re: [Trisquel-users] Where do you get your media from?

+1 for Bandcamp.

Use a Google dork and search for
inurl:bandcamp.com AND "some rights reserved" AND "genre here"
or similar.


There's also a guy who has been running a CC music radio station for several  
years now that I always listen to. Rynothebearded.com he interviews CC  
artists and posts links and licenses to every song that's broadcast.


Re: [Trisquel-users] Abrowser update issues

2019-03-20 Thread mistahdarcy

Just updated to 65.0.1 (64-bit) and hanging on downloads seems to be fixed.

However, the CAPTCHA issue is still prevalent. I can't log into sites like  
Bandcamp at all because of this.


Re: [Trisquel-users] The best terminal?

Another suckless user here. It's available in the Trisquel repositories under  
"stterm" if anyone wants to give the default build a go.


Re: [Trisquel-users] Transmission won't connect to trackers in Trisquel 8

Had the same thing happen to me. Port forwarding was still configured  
correctly in my router and everything. Not a single torrent would start or  
resume. Got tired of fiddling with it so I just switched to qBittorrent and  
it works fine.

Asking the real questions. I want to know as well!

I've been torrenting for years and am nowhere near those stats.


Re: [Trisquel-users] Why are we based on Ubuntu and not Debian?

2020-05-16 Thread mistahdarcy
There's always PureOS. Based on Debian testing and endorsed by the Free  
Software Foundation. Runs flawlessly on my Libreboot x200 and the software  
repos are nice and up to date.
