The octopus looks sexy.

Around here we call them cockamouse.

That really would depend on the quality of hardware and drivers. Only more than 10 years ago did I got that and it was a weird laptop barely working would linux.

Congrats and welcome. The year of linux is when each person decides for themselves.

If you need help with anything make sure to say something very wrong while asking.

Exactly what I feel when I look or have to interact with anything that doesn’t have pacman 😅

It’s a good way for people to learn about fully hostile companies to the linux ecosystem.

I was forced to use a mac recently. I believe this may be what it also does. It’s absolute insanity and I hate the behavior with passion. If I put it to sleep I want it to stay sleeping, dead, not running, not using the network, not draining my Bluetooth headphones that were connected and I expected for them to turn off… or to keep receiving slack notifications on it instead of them routing properly to the other really connected device…

I hate this timeline.

if the suckers keep buying why not? lines must go up.

• VRR
• HDR
• Multiple screens with different resolutions and proper pixel density being usable
• Lower power consumption
• Color management with all the other features working on top also
• …

After all this time. It took too many years to see those sysv compat things go away.

You need to start installing more electron applications and a bunch of jvms too.

Imagine living in a place where fire arms are a reality around you and you need constant worry about it.

The american dream.

Wouldn’t that be 4?

Porque no los dos

This was amazing. Tks.

These kind of distros always existed. I’m pretty sure I still have CDs around with Lindows from around the same Mandrake and Knoppix was the cool stuff.

What really are these magical “optmizations” besides installing the default packages available on every distro?

Or put the image broken loading icon in the black square.

I can confidently say that I used Ubuntu (different versions even) many years ago on work computers and the Frankenstein monster it became and it breaking when updating was a real problem. I’ll never do it again. Arch has it’s problems but less worries managing it and updating.

The lts trap + old kernel version + plus their horrible custom patching of it + needing other ppas for some hardware to work on top of that of custom patched kernel to support whatever specific thing the laptop needed that was available on more recent kernel version + the need for some apps/tools with recent versions… Hell, all of it.
