seems like top manners to me👍
I’ve heard that used/refurb Thinkpads are pretty solid for this usecase
maybe the older Frameworks might also be a good option as I’ve seen the older models go on sale
Macsbooks I’m hesistent to recommend as you’d be SOL for repairs unless you’re near a good repairshop like Louis Rossmann but Macs could still be good depending on what sales you find
the closest exp I’ve had with ARM is Arch Linux on my Raspberry Pi 4 which runs but is definitely hampered on performance and functional apps in comparison to any other laptops
thank you for petting Melon❤️
vetoing this is disappointing to say the least and
it should be the other way around;
users should be asked first if they’d like to opt-in first
Looking online it looks like everyone’s dunking on this half-assed attempt of…something🤔
This might be a dumb question but is Winamp still FOSS?
As far as I know the WCL isn’t known as being an OSI approved license
done
thanks for the heads up!
for me I thought it was a smaller cat lying on a bigger cat (with somehow the same color and coat style😂)
looking again 90° counter clockwise it could also look like she’s flexing on everyone💪😸
ahhhh thank you😂🤗
the attempted wafting 😂
and Moxxi is very cute🤗❤️
Capitalism: steal first, apologize with no real repurcussions later
that’s pretty fucked if true
Nintendo’s stagnated and has become a patent troll
as someone that used to be a fan I’m sad as it’s hard to be hyped for any of their games when they’re widely known for pulling these kinds of scummy tactics time and time again
indies be dammed, it’s too much of a risk to make Nintendo-inspired games let alone direct fan-games
fair enough🤗
yup can do!
thank you for the update🤗
no worries and best of luck!
ah thank you for calling that out👍
pacman -Sy
is definitely a mistake and you are correct in that it should be -S <packages>
or -Syu
I’ve edited my previous comment to reflect this thank you!
air fryer hash browns with a bit of olive oil is really good I gotta say🤗
while I’m not sure about the tiling WM front I can help with the KDE optimization on Arch part:
To preface I’m sharing sections of my Bash script that I’m in the process of eventually releasing under AGPL-3.0 which should help explain the editing/verboseness of them.
## `btrfs-progs` is dependent/only required if you use BTRFS as your file system.
## `grub` is also dependent if you use GRUB instead of Systemd as your init system.
## intel-ucode replaces amd-ucode (as discerned from your comment on this post) which installs Intel-based microcode for your processor/CPU.
pacstrap -K /mnt intel-ucode base base-devel btrfs-progs efibootmgr grub iptables-nft linux linux-firmware linux-lts man nano networkmanager pipewire pipewire-alsa pipewire-jack pipewire-pulse sudo
### grub-btrfs is omitted as it is orphaned as of Sept 3, 2024. https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/any/grub-btrfs/.

## Installing Video Drivers
## FOSS AMD GPU Drivers
## Please see the table on https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Xorg
pacman -S --needed mesa vulkan-radeon libva-mesa-driver mesa-vdpau xf86-video-amdgpu
## Enable the multilib repository for 32-bit application support:
sed -i "/\[multilib\]/,/Include/"'s/^#//' /etc/pacman.conf
## To enable 32-bit application support, the multilib repository is enabled by default using the sed command above. This allows the necessary drivers to be installable from the multilib repository.
pacman -S --needed lib32-mesa lib32-libva-mesa-driver lib32-vulkan-radeon lib32-mesa-vdpau
## Owners of older AMD graphics cards (GCN 1&2) may also want to install the ATI driver:
#pacman -S --needed xf86-video-ati
Some packages were omitted from the installation lines above as this was taken from my custom installer for self-hosting services.
I’d recommend checking the links provided above to to figure out what additional packages you want for yourself🤗
If you still have issues with KDE X11/Wayland on Arch or Ubuntu, feel free to DM me and I’ll try my best to help👍
