Here’s another one for you, my reading comprehension-challenged Internet friend.
macOS is actually UNIX 03 certified. It doesn’t get any more UNIX than that. 😉

You might be right. In either case, the argument stands but thanks for the correction.
I wouldn’t want your help anyway, considering you think your reading comprehension is better than mine. 😆
You responded to “macOS is UNIX” with “it’s not open source”. I’m just illustrating how these 2 things are not correlated.
In any case, macOS is based on OpenBSD. Even the original BSD, which OpenBSD is based on, was not initially open source.
Everything you said was a straw man.
UNIX != open source.
In fact, most flavours have historically been commercial and proprietary.
I’m confident there’s a lot more of them in the Tories. The problem is that under Starmer, the ones in Labour feel encouraged to show their colours.

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.
Debian.
Proxmox (which is heavily Debian) if the use case is to host VMs and/or LXC containers. Debian on those.
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!
Up until a few months ago, Vulkan was very unstable on BG3. It’s been fine for a while though. I haven’t made performance or smoothness comparisons though, I just default to Vulkan and it’s been fine.
Founding member of company that stands to make fortunes through a product endorses said product.
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?
I want to avoid both though. There should be Fediverse bots mirroring them. 😅
They’re also prioritising a few great and much needed QoL improvements like vertical tabs, tab grouping and a new Profile Management system!

I don’t mind the order of path, arguments and options, but what the hell is the deal with long arguments with a single dash? i.e. -name
instead of —-name
Don’t squeeze them into your eyes. Don’t rub them on your skin and go to the sun. Don’t squeeze them on open wounds.
I think this is enough warnings about lemons for now.

I fairly constantly need to disable Bluetooth on my iPad so they work on my phone.
If you put the headphones in pairing mode, you can just re-pair with the phone without having to touch the iPad.
Linux is quite an oddball in the UNIX world, tbh. It’s the most popular these days, and the one I’m most familiar with, but most Linux OSs are a lot more GNU than they are UNIX.
