Well yeah there evidence, the title doesn’t match the article.

Why are you so angry?

Many communities here have a rule to keep the original title, and even out of those it is good form.

But I must repeat: why are you so angry? Is this just how you are or does this reply really make you this angry?

Is it in the Debian repos? Also I hope it doesn’t need anything newer that SSE2 on the CPU, so far that has been one of the biggest blockers for running some programs on it.

Same, I have memories of playing AoE2 as a kid on it, and eventually even AoE3 as a less-kid

Yeah it’s an old swap partition that I never touched on the drive when repartitioning. No idea what I was thinking when I created it! To be fair I must have been 15 years old at the tine.

For actually using the machine I would go with another Fedora Atomic distribution, such as Sway, or the XFCE or LXQt Fedora Desktops.

Appart from being a bit slow because of full fat Gnome it was very nice and usable.

Also I thought broadcasts only went to connected devices. Aka having a big subnet with 20 devices will have the same performance as a tiny subnet with 20 devices. Does the size of the subnet really make a difference, or is it only the number of actual devices?

I didn’t know there was a performance penalty to having big subnets. I’ll have to look it up and shrink them.

But this is relatively moot since all my devices talk via ipv6 now. The only thing without ipv6 support I have is Mikrotik devices that only expose their management interfaces over ipv4. Anyway these are only in one VLAN, the management one.

Ah I misspoke. I have different VLANs, not just subnets. So nothing really goes through layer 3 to talk across subnets, as nothing is allowed to go from one VLAN to another. I use them to split the networks between devices that should not talk to each other.

Then I can have fun stuff like 10.42.0.X are static IPs for known devices, and 10.42.1.X is DHCP addresses for unknown devices. This is also only one subnet, I have quite a few for management, IoT stuff, guest network, work devices.

Anyway my network is ipv6 now. Sadly fastfetch doesn’t show it, though I’d have to censor it to avoid doxxing my prefix.

Yeah I usually ran XFCE on my old laptops. But this one was wiped immediately after this. Just wanted to see full fat Fedora in action, with all the modern stuff like Wayland.
