This is your annual reminder to do a snapshot (timeshift or whatever you prefer) before doing relatively minor changes to your system....

Since I assume lots of people are flying this time of year

I’m in the market for a Linux friendly ultralight laptop to check web apps and run terminal, nothing fancier then that. Do any cheap systems exits these days? I was looking at a chrome book but apparently the mediatek chip doesn’t play nicely with FOSS....

You get to keep all your current memories and knowledge....

What is the least shitty shit store? Never had a good experience with any of the shops such as, wish, aliexpress and the rest of em.
