My Lenovo Thinkpad just broke… again.
Daym, I though those things are tanks. Which model?
I used it for a while with an m2 macbook perhaps half a year ago, but ended up getting a PC so I wouldn’t have to deal with so much jank.
1·1 month agoI’d like to like KDE but every time I use it there’s a bunch of minor cuts. Instability.
Might be that you really don’t need VMs but just lightweight namespace containers. If so, you can use docker/podman, systemd-nspawn or various other tools. The overhead will be less than 1% if you stay within the same architecture as your host.
Wayland is not experimental.
I’ve been trying to sell mine. Went down to 60% of the original price and no takers.
My tip: Don’t take funny-colored borders or funny keyboards unless you’re 120% sure you don’t want to sell it in half a year.
I have investigated the idea and came to the conclusion that immutable distros are essentially a research project. They attempt to advance the state-of-art a slight bit but the cost is currently too great.
Perhaps somebody will some day create something that’s worth switching to. But I don’t think that has happened yet, or is happening with any of the current distros. Silverblue might become that with enough polish, but I feel that to get that amount of polish, they would have to make Silverblue the 1st class citizen, i.e. the default install of Fedora.
socially he’s not terrible but when the war drums come beating he’s stepping in line for the stars and stripes
Like pretty much every Finn would these days, really.
Not sure if being against Russian aggression can be called a “political belief” as nearly all Finns pretty much agree on it.
I’m not sure if you’re kidding, so I’ll just note that Finland and Iceland are NATO member states, and Finland is notoriously against Russian aggressions due to history.
I have been using X11 since 1996, and I never felt that it was very good. Sure, at the start it was better the then state-of-the-art desktop (Windows 95), mostly thanks to Linux, but that advantage went away in 2001 when OS/X was released. And even Windows went past it at some point, perhaps around Windows 7 or 8.
Wayland took a long time to get there, but it definitely is there today.
Thinkpad X1 Carbon if you’re swimming in money and want the lightest possible laptop, Thinkpad T14 if not.
Asus Zenbooks are kinda neat machines too, and taiwanese instead of chinese, but probably not quite as reliable.
