Oh good, now I can stop using the top of my good ol’ 1970s TV. As a bonus, maybe my wife will stop mentioning the smell.

11·2 months agoWell then, carry on Ethan!
7·2 months agoYeah, the Roadrunner could easily skip by such barriers, frustrating the Coyote to no end. Tesla is not a Roadrunner.
2·2 months agoA whole lot of people who just do web or email or whatever could live with a Chromebook actually. They don’t really need the latest CPU/GPU and gobs of ram and disk space for simple stuff
Sorry, was expecting a flood that didn’t happen I guess. Why a separate partition for home (or var, or whatever you want to split off)? See
Linux programmers have been battling Microsoft and its shady deals with hardware vendors for decades. That’s the real problem. Just when something starts working too well, MS changes things up, dictates changes to hardware, and then that breaks it for Linux, so it’s back to the old IDE with new hardware to figure out how to get around it. Or the hardware folk just don’t consider Linux a viable alternative and just happily make sure only Winders runs well.
Can you use a hardware key like a Yubikey instead?
3 … 2 … 1 …
Or Wireshark
I learned by a lot of distro hopping, tweaking and tuning and compiling kernels (way back when tho), to not being afraid of “breaking things.” Since Nov. 1992. It helps when you use a spare PC or laptop though, no panic about loss

Oh man I’m way behind at Winders 3.1, better stick with Linux!
An HP by any chance? These don’t handle suspend well and you need to add a parameter or three at boot via grub (or systemd too). Otherwise the system gets tied up filling the log endlessly with rapidly cycling pcie errors and you end up crashing or frozen pretty quickly. If this might be your problem, see

Where there’s a problem there’s usually a solution, you just might need to root around the web for answers.
And soon, the already AI-flooded net will be filled with so much nonsense that it becomes impossible for anyone to get some real work done. Sigh.
