Interesting, I feel like it is not easy at all to switch between DEs. Going from KDE to Gnome? Better rip out KDE first before you install Gnome, no way to keep them both. I really want to try more DEs but for me it feels like work to figure out how to do it without breaking anything existing.

I think saving up 1,5 billion with a normal job is not… realistic. At that point winning the lottery is the more realistic chance, as crazy as it sounds.

Also ich habe das ganze letzte Jahr damit verbracht meine Verwandten davon zu überzeugen keine zu kaufen. Begründung war, dass das Öl jetzt sicher billig wird, wo die Leute doch weniger Öl brauchen und man ja dann bald keine mehr einbauen darf…

Es gibt sicher Setups wo sich Pellets platzmäßig wirklich nicht ausgehen , aber man kann oft den bestehenden Öltank einfach durch eine Pelletlagerstätte austauschen.

Haha, you can! But other programs which don’t have built in network share support can’t use those. Also a bit annoyed by this, but it’s an easy fix.

Had dualboot for years but gaming on Linux finally got good enough to just… never boot Windows again. I need to delete it, it’s sitting there for a year now without booting. Switched from Endeavour to Cachy and I’m very happy with it. Everything just worked without configuring anything (and I have nvidia!). Didn’t switch on my notebook yet, which I mostly use for browser and chat on the sofa, mainly because I have quite a history with touchpad issues (also, it’s a M1 Mac, might need to give Asahi a bit more time).

Touchpad: No matter what I did, the touchpad is always so bad on Linux (tried on different devices, different hardware, different distros). Two finger scrolling is not consistent, movement doesn’t feel right, gestures are not precise enough. Tried to get the “two finger swipe back” on the browser on my old Intel Macbook Air and it was just horrible. Could only get three finger swipe to work and recognition of that was just not very consistent. At the moment I have a old notebook sitting here to set up for one of my family members and could only get somewhat smooth scrolling to work on Mint by using some arcane workaround… but only in Firefox, scrolling anywhere else still sucks. Apparently touchpads on Linux are still my nemesis.

I would love to use Linux on my notebook too, but I also don’t want to fight with my main input all the time. :( Will try Asahi linux on the M1 Macbook as soon the battery issue improves, but I have a feeling that the touchpad problems will drive me back to Mac OS again (which sucks, because they keep locking Mac OS down more every year…).

Is it? Got a 3080 and my pc goes to sleep and wakes up without issues. Or do you mean a specific mode? I just use whatever cachy with KDE uses as standard.

Omg there I got this! I tried it and using it for ages. No randomly untied shoes anymore.

Thank you all so much for your answers, I have a few more options to go through now!

Man… I’m way to tired. I red your post as “Houses” (without the fly part) and I was so confused why you want to catch a house and if this is some kind of surreal post. Nope, just can’t read, houses can’t jump.

Went travelling a bit and visited some cities in neighbouring countries. Had a good time in one city and was underwhelmed by another. But all in all, not bad!

It’s really the most annoying thing. Spotlight was so trustworthy and now I can’t find shit. Half of the time it can’t even find applications I know I have installed. I guess time to switch to Linux, but Asahi is not really finished yet, and I just hate how the trackpad feels on Linux installations.

Kodi (formerly XBMC) is still there as far as I’ve seen. So if you liked XBMC give it a try maybe.

A main board for a NAS I was planning to build “at some point” because I saw it was pretty cheap. This “cheap” main board now cost me a lot of money in things like hard drives, PSU, case, … So many regrets. :D

Because I really don’t care. I need a few minutes to adapt if I switch it off (or on, it it is off) and I’m good to go.

As far as I read (I’m no expert!) they could check the SNI of the TLS handshake if they want. But using the DNS of the ISP is handing them the data right in a way they can analyze/use them very easily afaik?

Still learning about this topic!

Thanks for this post, I thought it is an issue in my phone only.
