Linux xisters. What did nool do on this update?

The forum was maybe the fastest I had seen it before. Now its slow in a really wierd way. I'm not sure if its just on my end or not, it doesn't seem like it though because it's only this site doing it.

I can't think of anything that would cause that, during a version update for debian.

Unless he was tinkering around with more. I know he removed the proxmox stuff, but that shouldn't matter either AFAIK. I don't know if he was even using it for anything on the site or just for his vps hosting stuff.

Xubuntu has theming that isn't even made to leverage consistency across GTK3, GTK4, and LibAdshitta from the foot fags.

Interesting... I haven't played with themes too much. Xubuntu looked better than Fedora's atrocious XFCE spin but that's not saying much.

Good info. I hate being forced to abandon a good product because it got strangled in the crib and isn't packaged/updated anymore. Huge value add in Mint's favor.

No Snap.

I don't care for snap either. Isn't it just a matter of disabling snapd and avoiding Snap versions of software?

I haven't found myself doing much DIY with Xubuntu.

YESSSS

See that? Everytime those numbers match it means the STORED ECC matches the CALCULATED ECC by the bootloader. I had to make a system and pretty much poke and poke to get the SEMI pattern that would make it pass and match.

Well sort of later it fails but HEY..
I don't know why I said hey... acutally ...

But its enough for it to say "Alright parts of xyz are VALID so mount the VERY first part"
HAHAHAHHAAAAAAAAAA. And I was about to fucking quit. Literal 2009 MIPS tv Semi running in QEMU with less than 1000 lines of code added.

IVE GOTTEN FURTHER and I figured out how MORE of it works. I can say this time for real WHAT I need to do. Its gotten further and on top of that what is wrong I know how to fix.

You know, there was a guy on Steam making the same argument, maybe you two are right.
I was just bummed I was installing a game server for frens, and after installing a distro that had recently dropped 32 bit support I found myself malding having to do it over again.

Syswow64 will make wine 32 bit obsolete and then we'll have no use for multilib
Or you can just flatpak steam and not multilib already
The question is why should you care about multilib in 2026 when pretty much everything is cross compilable for x64 except proprietary goyslop like steam

I bet you use Wayland and gnome also

i want to add a clarification too that umu-launcher, lutris, proton, etc are all 32 bit dependent because of wine so they don't count

Is there any reason why steam is still 32 bit in 2026 anyway? I thought they wouldve had made a 64 bit client a long time ago with an optional 32 bit client with like lts support.

What confuses me about steam is I can imagine 32 bit client to support 32 bit windows/Linux, but as of January 1 they no longer support 32 bit windows
But steam is basically a Ubuntu filesystem and a wrapper for chromium which hasn't built for 32 bit in a while, so you'd think they'd have switched by now just because chromium isn't 32 bit
Idk proprietary software gonna proprietary
