No Thanks

The first time debian oldstable broke a package after an incremental update, i reconsidered my long running hard stance against arch

Updated my endeavour install last night from 6.18 to 7.1 without issue: daily -Syu is for the birds

just wanted to add to the list that google bought writely and immediately started making it worse as google docs: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scalyr

i seem to recall micron getting in trouble a while back for this same thing hmm… https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DRAM_industry_price_fixing

Just checking in to confirm #endevouros is the better choice in most cases.

if you build it they will come. one thing i’ve found very useful are when folks link to interesting discussions from comments - it makes me appreciate instances, communities, and individuals and look horizontally (the solar punk instance was lovely to discover.) the fediverse feels so appropriate at both a local and global level, having known about lemme for so long i feel a little remiss for not participating more, earlier. long story short just create what you want to see, and give it some occasional attention to nurture its growth

I quite like the pinebook pro from a weight and form factor (it is a hair big), speakers are ineffective, charging can be finicky, boot process needed a concerted effort on the wiki to document (if you’re going to alter the bootloader (recommended), do it when you first get it because things can very well go terribly.) I think only used and refurbished units are available, so buy your parts now. The body is fantastic and light, sturdy enough, feels lovely to the hand. The track pad is merely adequate. Performance is like an atom netbook.

This may be a faux pas but i quite like the dell latitude 7350 k14a (yes that one is old, tough as fuck (if the tablet part comes apart after being dropped on a hard floor it’s like an old cell phone and just snaps back in place (i’m clumsy)), barely ok speakers, came with adequate memory and processor options, and a perfect shape, size, and weight plus if you’re really freaky you can pop off the tablet part.)
