You could try system wide macros. If you type @l, macro deletes last 2 chars and types lemmy

Apple. Can run bare metal Linux now

WetBeardHairs, (edited )

Yeah but how is the experience? While I’m not a fan of MacOS the polish and integration with the hardware is excellent. Hmm… I may need to see if I can dual boot this machine and check it out myself.

Haven’t tried myself but looking at a Mac for next time. Seems to be great experience and hardware integration somewhat up to speed. GPU issue is tackled a while back. asahilinux.org macdailynews.com/…/asahi-linux-on-an-apple-m1-mac… the fedora version was launched a few months back so I assume there is a lot to do. But active development and usable

I’d probably go with fold or circles.

Trinagles are the worst cause there’s not really any ‘shape’ to them. It’s just a triangle with an image.

And I’m out here ecstatic for getting 4 hours on my laptop 😂

Lenovo x13s Arm setup with Linux is coming along and can hit those runtimes. Will be slower, but good enough for daily work

One rule of thumb I discovered when doing research about a year ago is that AMD chips are generally way better than Intel chips when it comes to power consumption.

BuoyantCitrus, in Laptop with long runtime

Next time I look for a small laptop to have handy one thing I’m going to be sure to prioritise is: how much battery does it use while suspended? I’d really like to not need to have it switch to hibernate after 30m of sleep or w/e and ideally just plug it in overnight like a phone.

And that it CAN suspend fully.

smpl, in LXLE still good for older devices?
@smpl@discuss.tchncs.de avatar

Yes, use what you know. Neither LXLE nor LXDE are end of life as claimed in other comments. The latest LXLE release is supported until 2030, which is five years longer than Windows 10.

actionjbone,

I tried installing LXLE - and in spite of multiple attempts, it simply refuses to install the boot files into the boot partition. 🤣

So I suppose it’s getting a different flavor, after all

actionjbone,

I appreciate your response. it’s good to know I’m safe running what I know. And cerement gave me some good info so I can learn more about different distros. :)

interceder270, in KDE Plasma 5.27.10, Bugfix Release for December

Not really looking forward to KDE6.

KDE5 is great and does everything I need it to. I feel like upgrading is just going to introduce issues while bringing nothing new to the table.

The only thing I would like to change are bigger scrollbars or have the ability to easily resize them. Something tells me this isn’t going to be included in KDE6, though.

TheGrandNagus,

Don’t upgrade then.

I for one am looking forward to it. They seem to be fixing a lot of issues that I currently have with Plasma that prevents me from using it.

interceder270,

I’m on Manjaro, so I think it’ll be included shortly after it’s released :(

TheGrandNagus,

Sounds like a good thing to me.

meyotch, in Systemd timer unit

Your systemd file looks ok, but I think it’s doing exactly what you are telling it.

The solution may lie in the backup.service. Is that code you can modify? The OnCalendar=weekly doesn’t specify when in the week the service should run so that config may be vague.

If I understand the desired function here, you will need the service up all the time. It will just wait politely and occasionally run the specific backup script. It’s up to the backup script to determine when the last backup was made and either exit early because it hasn’t been a week or run the backup and reset a flag file.

At least that’s the approach I would take. Systemd is a very vigilant, but very stupid, service manager. It just watches and triggers services based on just a few criteria. Any logic more complex needs to go in the service itself.

Meuzzin, in Manjaro OS

Most of the hate posts in this thread, seem to have the same issue: Nvidia.

davemeech, in An open-source, cross-platform terminal for seamless workflows

I’m looking for a terminal like warp that’s Linux compatible and this initially looked promising but the comments on how bloated it is is discouraging.

Is there not issues with filling up the NVRAM with efi entries, even if you’re deleting old ones? I’ve bricked a computer by distrohopping so many times it couldn’t write new entries.

SteveTech,

I’m probably wrong, but NVRAM suggests that there should be some way to clear it. (Clearing the CMOS might if you can’t do it in software)

as_is_tradition,

I’ve cleared entries before with efibootmgr.

Looks interesting, I will look into it. On first look it seems useful
