    This was a great read and nearly mirrors my experiences with immutable distros as well.

    I jumped ship from windows into Debian at first and after running into a lot of strange issues (mostly self inflicted) I decided I liked the idea of an immutable distro + containers to keep me on rails and prevent me from nuking things I shouldn’t.

    I went with Aurora DX initially but decided to switch to Bazzite DX instead (which just took a single rebase command since they’re both based on Universal Blue. That was very cool) In theory it sounds great but I’ve run into issues with containers that I don’t understand. Specifically it seems like a permissions issue or something to do with the way my file system is set up. I tried installing a .deb into a debian container (same version and same .deb I had already installed just fine on Debian previously) but the container kept throwing weird errors about missing files. The path in the container error seems like it doesn’t exist and even if I remake the container with a custom root directory I get the same error. Just very weird stuff like that.

    I wish I could hop on a discord call with someone who is familiar with this stuff and have them walk me through some of this. I’m definitely not going back to Windows so I’ll figure all this stuff out eventually, but its a bit of a struggle right now.

    I’m like a 2. I can picture an apple, it has color and texture, but when I try to rotate it the colors don’t really work, like I don’t know what’s on the other side. Same thing with picturing a rubix cube. I can imagine seeing maybe 2 or 3 faces of the cube and I know how rotations/moves work but when I visualize it the new faces are just colorless.

    If I try really really hard I might be able to visualize colors on the new face but the colors definitely wouldn’t be consistent on each side of the rubix cube.

    Yep and if you wear them for too long your body will grow new blood vessels to supply your oxygen-starved eyes with what they need. These new blood vessels can cover your retina and can lead to blindness.

    Learned that one by sleeping in daily disposable contacts for a while and losing a significant portion of my peripheral vision.
