<b>Can you install <i>X</i>?</b>
<b>Can you install something for me?</b>
</p>
<p>
If you want me to install something globally, and it's free and open-source, then most likely yes! Just ask about it on our Matrix Space. I'm a bit stricter about proprietary software, but if you have a legitimate reason for it, then sure. If you just want to install the software for your own user, open up Discover and search for the app. You can also use <a href="https://www.appimagehub.com/">AppImage</a>.
If it's an app, chances are, you can install it yourself! Try opening up Discover in a remote desktop session and searching for the app. If that doesn't work, we can help you on <a href="https://matrix.to/#/!dRcbHQEbbDRNcYShLo:exozy.me?via=exozy.me&via=matrix.org">Matrix</a>.

<b>How many cores, memory, and disk space am I allowed to use?</b>
</p>
<p>
You'll be delighted to hear that there's no hard limit! However, you should generally be courteous about the other users, so try not to use more than 4 cores and 50GB of our fast NVME storage. For RAM, try not to use more than 4GB, and don't give your VMs much more memory than they need. You can run intensive commands with <i>nice [NUMBER]</i>, where a higher number will cause it to be less disruptive to other users' work. If you need more storage, ask me about it on Matrix and I can give you up to 500GB of HDD storage. Of course, if you absolutely need more of any resource, we can have a chat about it on Matrix.

For RAM, 4GB should be enough for most things, and remember not to give your VMs more memory than they need. If you need to run an intensive command, prefix it with <i>nice [NUMBER]</i>, where a higher number will cause it to be less disruptive to other users.

<b>Why is the connection speed so slow?</b>
<b>Why's the connection speed so slow?</b>
</p>
<p>
Blame the ISPs. The my ISP's download speed is quite fast, but its upload speed is horrendous. This translates to a low download speed for users like you. Most people have slow upload speeds too, so that makes the connection slow both ways. I really should contact my ISP about it...

<b>Can the admins see everything I do?</b>
</p>
<p>
Yes, unless you encrypt it! Matrix direct messages are encrypted by default, but Nextcloud is not, for better performance. No problem though, since you can use things like <a href="https://www.cryfs.org/">cryfs</a> or <a href="https://nuetzlich.net/gocryptfs/">gocryptfs</a> to encrypt your files. The KDE Plasma desktop also has a nice Vaults feature in the system tray for encryption.

<p>
<b>Can I have sudo privileges?</b>
</p>
<p>
Probably not, but if you have something that needs to be run as root, I'll be happy to do it. Just ask about it on Matrix.

<b>The command line is behaving weirdly, commands I copied from the internet don't work, editing my <i>~/.bashrc</i> isn't working, and I can't change my shell!</b>
</p>
<p>
These issues are all consequences of using <a href="https://fishshell.com/">Fish</a> as the default shell for new users instead of the typical Bash. Although Fish is much easier to use than Bash, it's also not very compatible with Bash commands. You probably shouldn't blindly copy commands from the internet, but if you do, run <i>bash</i> first to get a Bash shell before pasting them in. If you want to run commands when starting the shell as with a <i>~/.bashrc</i>, see <a href="https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/211529">this Stack Exchange post</a>. And if you get tired of fish, you can always change you shell by asking about it on Matrix.
