I love how easy it is to change Kernel in CachyOS. Open the CachyOS Hello app, go to tweaks, kernel, select (and deselect) kernel and press execute.

If you have more than one kernel installed, you can choose the kernel you boot with in the GRUB boot manager.

When doing Music Production in Linux, having kontrol over the kernel, gives yet another way to fine-tune your system to low latency audio. So this really comes in handy.

@graves501 I primarily enjoy the feeling of control, and being able to trust my OS isn’t spying on me.

I’m not asked to login anywhere, so I can just be me.

That’s perfect!

@botvolution @fortifieduniverse on my list already, although I know it’ll just end up with me buying a Focusrite :)

What about yourself botvolution, toying with Linux?

I finally got around to making a #linuxaudio list! And need to go through my followed to build out the list.

But until then: Any suggestions?

(And yes you can suggest yourself, I want as many interested in audio work on Linux as possible)

If you’re curious about switching to Linux, and especially if you’re curious about Linux for music production — this might be a blogpost for you.

I haven’t been blogging for years, but now seems right to share some of the thoughts I have about Linux and Linux Audio.

First up is getting to know Linux, a thing about OSes, what’s up with all the “distro” talk, and what to expect from yourself if you consider switching, depending on your needs.

@killyourfm he is, and he’s part of a national group of champs, who help seniors with their computer-problems as voulenteers through a senior citizen’s association.

“Funny” story, my dad ended up using Linux Mint for the purpose because of the pre-installed app’s simply worked best with the seniors needs and their e-mail addresses. In Denmark a lot of the seniors have their e-mail through their old phone company, and these private mail services are best supported by Thunderbird.

@killyourfm I think both options would be fine! I have been trying a lot of distros, and there is no golden - no issue - solution, but I don’t experience more issues with Linux, than I do with other systems at work.

I have had a really great experience with Zorin, and it’s my first choice when people ask for advice on a good entry distro. But I would always advise people to reach out to people who can help them. My dad is helping local seniors, and sometimes remove windows for Linux Mint.

Note taking question: While testing out note taking apps, I was again reminded the limited experience I have with utilizing two different ways to organize: Folders and tags.

Some apps do both, and I could use examples of how others are using that, to organize notes?

People thinking they can transcribe a meeting using AI, and get all the important words, has something to learn.

You can transcribe a lot, but it will not always be what was said. But what it will be, is to sound plausible, so you think what is written was said.

Here is the solution:
When you have a meeting, don’t transcribe, make collective conclusions instead. Like “what did we just agree to?”, “here’s is what I wrote about this topic, can you agree” etc…

@tbhdk helt enig, det ville ikke kræve alverden for dem.

@killyourfm where do you have your Peertube?
