All I really need is calls, sms, a solid browser and some more robost messaging apps like signal and matrix/element - I’m a prime candidate for PostmarketOS if we ever get a stable piece of hardware. I have an old oneplus 6 that I’ve played with it on, its so close. If a flip phone could master that today, sure

I do use tap to pay, but meh I dont think I would miss it and android auto in my car could easily just be a bluetooth audio connection

(Yellow circle with white “W” on it)

thats the wayland icon, for whatever running it didnt map the icon

I’m not sure why google is over engineering this, proper mainline distros have this solved since forever. Let the community setup trusted repos with gpg keys, then let me trust the repos. If Fdroid trusts the package and I trust Fdroid, who should care?

don’t stream, download your porn from usenet like a civilised person

Here in Australia, they are almost gone. Disney doesn’t release anymore and other studios only release the biggest of titles, smaller movies get less and less releases. Some TV shows only get DVD. Its got me importing discs for things I really want and importing a lot of stuff from the high seas

The fact that Waterfox is owned by Advertising Company System1, doesn’t bother you?

there is some change of workflow, but its not difficult. The benefits outweigh the changes or any perceived draw back IMHO

Any chances you guys could suggest me one setup that “just works” no ifs and no buts? Or does it not exist in the Linux world?

You’ve given so little insight into your experience

My most recent hardware has been fine

• My framework 13 amd works perfectly with Fedora Kinoite.
• My Minisforum UM780XTX has been a great Steam console with Bazzite
• My desktop is a gigabyte x570 board with a ryzen 3700X and a 5700XT GPU, has been solid for years, running Fedora KDE and then Kinoite.
• My workstation at work is a HP 845 G11 and it works fine, also running Fedora Kinoite

In the past I’ve had thinkpads (an X1 carbon and a T485), also good choices

Over my 12 years of using Linux as my daily for work and home (and about 13 years of fiddling with it on and off before that), avoid realtek hardware, avoid nvidia gpus, avoid switchable graphics, avoid strange OEM feature devices. Check hardware for compatibility before you buy it. Stick to mainstream distros, not niche 1 man community distros. I’ve moved to immutable/atomic distros because they are harder to tinker with outside of user space, as historically tinkering is what got me into trouble, now I do that in a container away from my base OS.

I am always confused that such a stale distro is so highly recommended

I don’t think anyone should use social media with an engagement algorithm, no matter what age

I work tech in schools (in Australia) there are definitely tech savvy enough kids that will probably spool up their own fediverse instances

Good News Everyone!

the second income is good too

Alyx was pretty fun

gnome network displays is on flathub and works from KDE Plasma

not a doctor, but its probably the change in hormones that cause the refactory period that changes the response for round 2

As a chronic premature ejaculator, just get good with your tongue and pushing past the refactory period to go for round 2 (which lasts ages 👍)

Another fun fact is that the original radio edit that charted is different from the album version / version that is on streaming these days. It lacks verse 3

And when the plane came in, she said she was crashing The velvet, it rips in the city We tripped on the urge to feel alive But now, I’m struggling to survive Those days you were wearing that filthy dress You’re the priestess, I must confess Those little red panties, they pass the test Slides up around the belly face down on the mattress one And you hold me And we are broken Still it’s all that I want to do, just a little now

Have you considered Bazzite? Similar to Nobara, but it’s immutable. You can treat it like an appliance and even updates itself

I have an OG Vive, it works fine. I have more issues wrestling with the flatpak version of steam’s steamVR components than with the actual hardware
