I used to use WindowMaker on seriously underpowered laptops 10-15 years ago. Seems like it’s still just as efficient. For something more standard interface-wise you could try IceWM.
Another thing to do is build your own kernel without any features you don’t use. Not sure how much of a difference that makes exactly.
I honestly really like Ubuntu, not sure why, but its very smooth. I kinda want to try using open dyslexic though… I currently use Fira code for monospace though.
See I found that but I still could not figure out the install process. I finally figured that libsixel was the newest one but it still seems unmaintained. I ended up compiling it from source as it was not in the fedora repos. At this point I am more confused about the correct version of sixel to use. Libsixel is the only one I can really find
Install Distrobox first and work inside that container.
Messing with dependencies of a program not in your package manager can result in bricking your OS (which will take some time to fix and that will be annoying).
In DB, all dependencies will be self contained and your host OS will stay clean. You can imagine it similar to how Flatpaks work.
Thanks! How does this work with OS permissions? As it’s rescuezilla and veracrypt I’m trying to use, both need access to the system partitions in order to be able to mount/read/copy to them. Flatpak can be a bit limited regarding permissions…Moreso on a live iso I guess.
I got different colors for Kubernetes clusters. Like green for testing cluster, yellow for development and red for production. Always taking a Quick Look before I do something
Use PS1=“▌t▐nw→” to display your local time each time you press enter. And make aliases of lengthy commands such as alias internettest=“curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sivel/speedtest-cli/master/speedtest.py | python -” (You need to install python to run this.)
Source code is available at GitHub but it require you to have your phone by yourside e.g. connected via usb or in the same network so you can connect via IP
Because the list is “certified” not “works with” - essentially, the “certified” list is for hardware that not only works, but that Canonical will guarantee works and will make software changes to fix if it breaks
Sure, but why aren’t those vendors certified? Is it a lack of action on the vendor’s part? Is it a monetary problem where Canonical is demanding too much money and thus gatekeeping smaller vendors with smaller pockets from being certified? what is it?
I suspect most vendors just dgaf about being linux certified. They just build their hardware to work with Windows since that is what most people will use. If the hardware happens to work with Linux too, great. But it’s much more important to make sure it works with a system that over 90% of your users use.
If you build laptops that you deliver with a Linux system on it, then yes, you will make sure it is Linux certified and it works properly.
It’s not difficult to imagine that for most laptops that are made, Linux wasn’t even considered for a second.
Most prompt customizers have an option for showing how long last command ran and whether it succeeded/failed or simply prompt timestamp, it's often default. I use Tide, there's also Starship and a number of others. You can also roll your own ofcourse.
