Y’know, I’m starting to pick up on that.

Something immutable and auto updating, likely Fedora based because that’s what I use.

Bit late to the party, but I picked up an EliteBook 840 G5 and flashed Fedora to it with little to no issues. Suspend is a dream, the keyboard is meh.

Foliate is lovely on my tablet, and OK on my laptop.

This thing.

UPDATE: I’ve settled on a Moto G 5G (2024), it seems to run LineageOS with MicroG well.

I find that my best writing happens within those hours. It is, after all, the witching hour.

Most of it, specifically the not being strictly “Christian” anymore and the being queer/nonbinary.

Nano for low-level system crap (config, scripting, etc) and Obsidian/Typora/Insert WYSIWYG editor here for major writing. I’ll utilize LibreOffice if I need something done in a Windows-compliant way.

I’m one to agree. It all matters what you feed into.

Ooh, I once mixed Captain Morgan Coconut Rum with pineapple Fanta and the result was quite refreshing!

Grape soda and chocolate ice cream float.

Just bought one of these today, glad to know I’m not totally screwed. It’s a nice little phone for the money, kind of a downgrade coming from a OnePlus Nord N30 where the screen came unglued from the case.

Yes, thank you! Ubuntu, in my opinion, is not a beginner friendly experience. It also tends to break easily, at least in my opinion. I’ve had ongoing problems with Ubuntu, as soon as I installed Fedora all the problems went away.

People are fucking assholes, I just have to take it in stride and block liberally.

it’s done!

Gnome is where the heart is for me! It’s just so customizable, the extension framework is such a cool concept. And yes, I know, KDE has a lot of bells and whistles, and I think think that’s why I dislike it. It’s cluttered, Gnome is simple. I like the polish and the smoothness, KDE is nice for people who want more but I’m happy with less. Thanks for coming to my TED talk!

Can one just remove GSF and bypass this? Or is it something going to be built into Android going forward? Genuinely curious.

I manage to find the issue, it was my USB drive. The machine is currently humming along with Fedora 42, I’m just now installing Nvidia drivers.

It turned out to be my crappy, no name USB. All OSes boot fine now, even 64-bit. I love when computer shit is simple.

Linux wins the day, viva la Tux!
