I went from Boost for Reddit straight to Boost for Lemmy. It does everything I need and the dev is quite active with new features etc.

That’s news to me - and a bit of a dick move.
New Thinkpads are still great Linux laptops, so there’s a steady stream of newer 2nd hand models coming on the market.
That’s all well and good, but many of these Windows machines were headless or used by extremely non-technical people - think tills at your supermarket or airport check-in desks. Worse, some of these installations were running in the cloud, so console access would have been tricky.
Snapshots are read only. Best plan is to rollback to a snapshot you think works, test it and if all is good use sudo snapper rollback
to make the current snapshot the default. I usually reboot at that point too, not sure if it’s necessary though.
I use Tumbleweed btw.
I dunno, having the same music taste seems like a good starting point at least.
Simple: I fucking hate driving. I hate the smell, I hate the noise, and I hate the stress. Thr environmental impact isnt exactly a plus point either. You could say that I’m lucky to live in a place with good public transport, but I actively sought out a place with public transport because I didn’t want to rely on a car.
Final nail on the coffin: I developed Menieres disease, so I am prone to intense vertigo attacks at short notice - I couldn’t get a license even if I wanted one.
IIRC, Qt comes with its own declarative language. That might be why you can’t find any bespoke ones.
BTRFS for the OS partitions, ext4 for /home, tmpfs for /tmp. I rarely need to use snapshots, but I do use a rolling release. It’s one of those things you don’t need until you really fucking NEED it. Tumbleweed support is great - I can roll back a bad update in about as long as it takes to reboot.
Next month
You are forgetting cloud computing - all my workloads have moved to Graviton or will do very shortly.
Upgraded this morning. Everything seems mostly OK, but the login screen theme is odd, but fully functional. The lock screen is the same as before, though.
Thinkpads are great for running Linux, but one thing I’ve noticed is thinkfan
is not installed by any distro I’ve tried. You definitely want that, or your laptop’s fan isn’t going to work - that will lead to performance issues or potentially damage your laptop
This is a blast from the past… My first computer was a Commodore Pet - though I recall it had a built-in tape drive? I learned to program on it and ended up having a career in software engineering. I still have a soft spot for it…
I use fuck
, it’s not ai but gets the job done.
Why would I want to use this instead of AWS Session Manager? I have a policy of no SSH enabled on any of my servers. Is this compatible with SSM connections too?
I prefer the non nonsense interface of RSS Guard, but then I’m reading CVE notices, so I need it simple and organised.
I wonder what the apologists from .ml have to say…
