I usually take a break for about 3 - 5 days after finishing a book. Then just got down the list I have on my Kobo. Make it easier for myself. Just go to the next book without even thinking about it.

That sound issue on windows (along with the brightness not working on laptops) has been on windows for as long as I've known windows 10. Sometimes a reboot fixes it, and others it'd never be fixed no matter what you did until you reinstalled. Welcome to Linux. It won't be perfect, but it's going to be fun

I'm currently experimenting with Nobar. I'll drive it for a while and see how things go. After that, I'm thinking of Bazzite.

No worries. Thank you

I've actually installed and enabled grub-btrfs. So now all of the snapshots that I make through timeshift will show in grub next to those kernel rollbacks. Also, I tried to download Bazzite today and the download was awfully slow it was showing 1.5 hours and then it fails the first 10 minutes every time. I gave up. I'm going to try to download it later and see

Awesome and good to know. I'm actually experimenting with distros to see where this takes me. I'm currently running Nobara with snapshots set up in grub. It also has other kernels entries in grub after big updates so you can roll back if things break.

Sounds so annoying to do honestly :/
I've just installed Nobara and will give it a whirl for a while and see how it goes.

I get that, but sometimes I need dependcies or packages that I can't get as flatpaks. Like today, I wanted to install a driver (or whatever it is) that's called "ntfs-automount" and it needs to be built from source with

    
sudo make install

  

And that I couldn't do on an immutable distro. And it is not available anywhere except the AUR and GitHub.

So, when you install things with rpm-ostree, will whatever I install stick, or will it be overridden whenever the system updates?

Lmfao. Exactly

I wanted to build "ntfs-automount" from source and I wasn't able to do it on distrobox

Bazzite download was showing 1.5 hours and kept failing to download 😂

Awesome. Thank you. I'm getting the run around between distros now to see which one works the best. So far Cachy os isn't as game ready as they claim. I had to install so much shit. Couldn't even boot into any of the Garuda ISOs that I've burned on the flash drive. Was very confused with immutable distros. Tried mint, and it was cool, but didn't try it for gaming. Man, this is a pain.

I'm leaning towards an immutable, but to be fully honest, they're a very, very new thing to me and understand nothing about them. Like when you give an idiot a grenade. That's me with an immutable distros. Lol
I need to learn more about them and how things work, because they do sound like what I'm looking for.

I surely hope so.

I installed aurora and distrobox got me a bit confused, so it is now on the back burner until I read more about it.

I did try an immutable one and ngl, I was a little stressed out using it. I wanted to create a package with the make command and for that I had to go through some hoops I didn't fully understand, and still couldn't get it to build.

It's now a very strong candidate. I'm just testing cschy os for now, but I'm still leaving heavily towards mint. Do you use it?

I tried it and I was very confused. I was trying to build an app from source and it was complete cluster fuck. I gave up

I don't really change many things on my system, but this is just a trend with endeavour os
