Yeah, I completely forgot that during the install Debian gave me multiple choice for the DE. I think I am using GNOME. I don’t remember if I chose it on purpose or it was the default choice and I just rolled with it.

Yes, I thought it might be a code issue. It just seemed weird that with other Debian based distros (ubuntu and mint) I have never had this issue. I hope this weekend I get enough free time to investigate further. Thank you for the tip.

Thank you for the suggestion, it might be this. I haven’t had a lot of free time lately, but I hope this weekend I can sit down and investigate.

Yeah, I know, but as I said I kind of like it and I think I can get used to it. It’s not necessarily something wrong with Debian, it’s just that I have been a long time windows user, and then used mint also for a long time, so this is just a habit.

I switched from Mint to Debian recently and it’s been great so far. I’m still getting used to the idea of no “panel” (tasks bar), but I think I will keep it that way since it looks cleaner. I find it really easy to navigate with just keyboard shortcuts. It does really feel universal.

Only issue that keeps bugging me is that for some reason the sound quality on any Bluetooth device is trash. €100 headset sounds like a €10 one. An issue I didn’t have with Mint, Ubuntu or Windows. I haven’t had time to investigate it yet though, maybe something is missing in the default installation and is just a matter of installing the right package.

Sounds like the average Arch user to me

As someone who used to work for an ISP I always used to hate it when people acted like it’s the end of the world when there was an outage. I’m not saying this is you, but some people I guess imagine that things happen with a waving of a magic wand. Things brake, things need time to be fixed.

I don’t know how your ISPs work, but in my experience the estimated time is usually way more than what they really need to fix it. They just do it in case things don’t work out as expected. You will be way happier it they tell you they will fix it in 5 hours and actually manage to resolve it in 1 hour. Instead if they say its going to be an hour and then spend 5 hours fixing it you wouldn’t like it as much.

I don’t know how you got that idea since I said that the president resigned, not that he was kidnapped by a foreign country.

Well, since my country’s government resigned under the pressure of a nationwide protests, althou elections will not be held today, they will be pretty soon.

As to who am I going to vote for, I’m still askig myself this. All of the parties have proven themselves to be trash in one way or the other.

And the newcomer party that is expected to appear will be formed by the former president, who also resigned last week, not because of pressure, but to be able to form a party and participate in the upcoming parliament elections. And while he was president he made some statements that made it very clear he has sympathies towards Russia, so a big NO on the voting there too.
