  • Try Arco. I always wonder how Endeavour always seems to get mentioned before it. The online install option let’s you pick everything you want during installation, and the offline install is fine as well. The online install has options for Wayland/Hyprland as long as it’s on bare metal. I distrohop in Virtualbox and that would be my pick. If the hardware is old, Mabox is great.






  • I gave up on tumbleweed recently. I bought Suse at Best Buy back in the day, and have always had it on a second PC around the house. I love the chameleon, but a few different showstoppers led me to remove it from my laptop. I miss it, but the last snapshot booted so slowly, and I couldn’t get past it. I’m sure I’ll put it back on there, but I like being able to diagnose it and I just couldn’t this time.






  • The only thing not covered by LWT (no shade for them at all) was the reaction time required to “correct” MCAS’ error. Imagine being strapped into a seat in the cockpit, and the plane suddenly nosedived and you have under twenty seconds to correct it after not being informed it had that much control in the first place. People who fly model airplanes and helicopters wouldn’t accept that. Pilots with planes full of travelers absolutely shouldn’t. Enshittification issues aside, (takes mental gymnastic skills that I don’t have) that is an unforgivable mistake that should have never made it to planes.
