I use a t480 for my carry laptop with Gentoo. It’s been solid. Replaced both batteries pretty easily, replaced thermal paste, and it’s good to go again. I paid about 160 got it. I had a t460 as well, but gave that to my gf. Either of those were good and not too expensive for a semi modern computer for general usage.

The idea of a a Ready or Not styled game with the comedy and tone of Deep Rock would be killer.

I used Ubuntu, then Arch, and now Gentoo. Been about 2 years with most of my time on Arch. Gentoo is my favorite though. Just does what I want, how I want.

Most of my girlfriend’s family is deaf. They read fairly slowly and end up usually not really following subtitles very easily. Sign language is fastest for them to understand.

Well, I knew my brother was getting a new phone soon anyways so getting notified his device changed wasn’t a surprise. Otherwise, getting notified hia device changed without that knowledge may have triggered me to contact him elsewhere to ask if he did. Signal is mostly going to be conversations between close/trusted individuals. It doesn’t tell you what they changed to, the message basically tells you that if this person didn’t legitimately change devices then it might be a bad actor.

I like st and kitty depending on the task

I knew my brother got a new phone because signal told me their usual device had changed.

About 3 years. I wasn’t good with computers because I mostly just didn’t want to mess with them, due to Microsoft being who they are. I started with Ubuntu, went to Arch, Nixos, and now Gentoo is my standard. I got into it because my brother who’s a security programmer recommended it to me. I use much, much more linux than my brother does now. I don’t have any proprietary systems in my home now. All is FOSS.

I use the bin kernel. I don’t change anything that is kernel level, so the default is fine. It cuts down on updates and install by a lot, but more important is that it’s stable. I personally love gentoo, it’s my favorite and I’ve tried basically everything.

Play Siege. So Linux wins again.

I know you’re on ubuntu, but installing programs depends on your distribution. Some programs are in your software library, some aren’t. But there will always be a way to get the program. For instance, I use Gentoo and Mullvad. The way I set it up is with Wireguard so I control it through the terminal, this is because Gentoo has no mullvad app. Otherwise, you can often add new libraries to your system. Again, on Gentoo Steam is not in my repository by default. So, I added the steam repository to my system so I could get it. For Mullvad, I’m pretty sure they offer a deb package, which Ubuntu can use. Otherwise, some other distributions offer a mullvad app in their repository by default. Try other distributions and see what clicks. A lot of linux is experimentation. I personally prefer doing a lot of things fairly manully, so I use Gentoo with essentially only a terminal for control. Linux Mint, Devian, Arch, Void, Nix, Gentoo; there’s tons of choices so there’s going to be something that you click with.

I use it, been using it for a while. Both my desktop and laptop run it. I like it a lot and find it really easy to use. Amytime I find an issue I can pretty quickly fix it and keep my system clean. Games run great, my music production software is great, it’s fast, and just overall very enjoyable to use.

I really wish they’d fix this issue already. I’ve never seen it persistent on any other website before.

I know that, but I still hate having to. Having that as a common issue is just dumb, to me.

The arch breaks were always related to keys. I would run an update and there would always be an error related to the keys. Never had a breakage due to confs.

It’s an one in all tool. I like that I can do almost everything through one program.

Debian, don’t like apt.
Arch, breaks too much.
NixOs, just don’t need the tools it provides.
Any fork of a mainline distro because it’s never as good as the root.

I used arch for a while, but got sick of running repairs every few weeks. I use Gentoo now, it’s stable and good. I have a fuck ton of ram and a good cpu, I also take advantage of binary packages from time to time. I don’t really need to install new things that much after having done the initial install.

It can be used for other stuff. I use dwm and find that on occasion some programs aren’t nice in dwm or don’t work well. So, i suggest having both a tiling and a floating.

I have a gentoo sweater. They have an official merch store, but it looked a bit rough. I, shamefully, got a made on demand sweater from Amazon with the gentoo logo on it. I did also donate the price of the sweater straight to gentoo though as well. I donate to them from time to time.
