Ok, I'll open a new tab in the terminal.

Kunrelated issue
MOh? oops! My bad.
MI think I still didn't set up podman yet. In order to use containers or distrobxes is there a command to check my status on it if I don't remember?
KBazzite-arch is through podman/distrobox, it's all pre-installed
KThere's no setup, you just use it
Moh?
MI never used these before. The reason I install things on the host system is because I'm used to using windows.
Kdefinitely avoid that here, whole point of an immutable system
MIt's kind of what you do when you're still not fully used to Linux. I mean I'm getting there. But, you can't expect one to know how that stuff works when they want to switch off from Windows.
MLinux Mint was a great way to help me get comfortable with Linux after leaving Windows.
MBut I needed an OS that is great for gaming
MAlright, I have a question. If I learn how to set up those distroboxes and learn how to install things into them properly is there a way to move things into those distroboxes that were not previously installed there?
KNope, you'll just have to install it again
MFuck. Ok this gives me an idea for an update.
Automated containers for inexperienced Linux users and container installation forwarders
Automated containers for inexperienced Linux users and container installation forwarders
KThat's been added, oversteer, scrcpy, OpenRazer, solaar, and others install into a fedora container
KVia one just command
MOh?
KWon't teach you the workflow but it does make those particular ones easy
MThank god
MOk so how do I check the status to see if I have any containers?
Tdistrobox list
J
Jthis might be useful for you
MThanks. I imagine based on how some things install even though I don't know how to create one myself. I believe I've seen some containers install themselves in the terminal by default. Am I correct? I should have some just through some things I installed even if I didn't make any.
M[normand64@Normand64 scrcpy]$ cd .var]$
bash: cd: .var]$: No such file or directory
[normand64@Normand64 scrcpy]$
How do I change back to var?

MI think I need to create a "note" in obsidian and make a list of these daily essential terminal commands I'll need. I'm going nuts
M[normand64@Normand64 scrcpy]$ distrobox list

MI will have to come back to this video a lot.
Jhe does great container content too
MYeah, I watched his stuff before. I was only looking for Linux commands to add to my notes.
MAlright, I guess I'm giving up on scrcpy for a while. Kind of like I did with Bazzite arch. I don't know what to do. It's gonna take time to learn containers.
Jtake your time, the nice thing is is that you're new so at least you don't have to waste time doing other meaningless tasks, heh
MIt is nice that you can't fuck up Bazzite OS.
Joh don't worry, you can. 
Jit's just harder than the "usual"
Mfacepalm why are you telling me that after you guys said you couldn't fuck up Bazzite OS?
Jeverything can be destroyed, it's just less likely with bazzite
Tit's really difficult. like you can't just install an application and it breaks
Tyou'd have to start like deleting files in /etc
Tand yeah you can mess with your home directory to break anything
Tthere's also system rollbacks
J(I don't mean to scare you lol) -- it's just that with most distros you break your system by installing software. Or by trying to do an upgrade.
MI don't think the general population may not know not to delete certain empty folders just because they're there. But i got that impression from Windows when i saw them named a certain way under subfolders for programs I installed in the past.
Hi managed to mess up bazzite a few times (kinda) on my laptop but thats more thanks to the uefi on the laptop being weird with linux in general
bazzite was the first ever linux i had to enable secure boot for to even have it boot (it booted fine until i signed the image)
had to literally enable secure boot --> install bazzite --> sign image --> import keys --> everything works
without secure boot on my laptop would just boot into a black screen after signing the system

MI had a similar experience when I used to be on Windows and I was trying to enable virtualization.
MBy the way. If you think about it. This information should scare people. I need the awareness of these potential risks so I don't do anything stupid to my computer. If I'm not scared, I'll risk breaking my computer.
Jyeah unfortunately this is considered "normal" with most distros
Jlike, if it breaks, it's your fault.
