Honestly I like Windows 11 better than Windows 10. I mean I don't like or use either one, but if I had to I'd go with 11 (with debloat script, Powertoys, WSL2 and blocking telemetry with DNS as much as possible)
This is subjective of course but I prefer both the visual and sound theme of Win11 (I despised Win10 in both regards). Plus it has some additional nice qol features like, I think, tabs in explorer?
The poor cleaning staff isn't responsible for the dystopian ads, neither are other people who just need to use this bathroom.
Vandalizing the ads themselves, and only the ads, is something I could get behind though.
You can get Steam on just about any distro, for years at this point. And there's always Flatpak for these cases too although for Steam I recommend native packages.
You're not wrong, it's definitely not something a n00b should attempt in most cases. But I've done this before to save myself the need for distrobox. A lot of proprietary software only offers .deb, but is usually either statically linked or comes with its own set of nearly all the libraries it needs. So just extracting and running it often does the trick on non-debian distros like Fedora in my case.
Seriously though, just use distrobox or see if there's an unofficial package for your distro that you trust (AUR/copr/ppa/OBS). It's more straight forward especially if you don't know what you're doing.
German Grammar Fun Fact 3: "Sie" is also "she" and "they" in addition to the formal "you". Which also means that it can't work like the gender neutral singular "they" in english.
I'm not aware of another one. Some other distros like Ubuntu and OpenSUSE ship AppArmor instead, which does similar things but isn't considered quite as secure.
I know plenty of other popular distros don't ship any Mandatory Access Control system at all which seems like a very bad security practice to me. Same thing with Firewalls.
Facebook and Instagram, sure. But plenty of people are more or less forced to keep WhatsApp either because of people they want to be able to message that refuse to use anything else, or perhaps even because they need to be in some WhatsApp groups e. g. for work.
Communication platforms aren't like web browsers or operating systems where you can switch at will to whatever else works for you, you're more or less reliant on everyone you know also making the switch.
That'll work but distrobox is a much simpler solution
Also great when you get some software as a deb for old Ubuntu and don't want the trouble of manually making it work on a new system. Just make an old Ubuntu distrobox.
I use fish which is quite nice OOTB, although if you want a posix compliant shell, zsh with some plugins is also great.
I don't think that would work since both GPUs are AMD and use the same driver
Use a shell with decent auto-completion. I have not been irritated by this in years.
One thing you could do is plugging your monitor straight into the iGPU outputs and using DRI_PRIME only for applications that need the powerful dGPU.
Unless you want to run either everything or nothing on a specific GPU, I don't think there's a more convenient way than setting DRI_PRIME per application.
That's why I specified Red Book Audio (the actual CD Audio standard). Most people I know haven't upgraded their CD Player since the 90s, and by the time MP3 got popular, people weren't using CDs to listen to them.
Lies, you can't fit 12 hours of Audio on a CD (at least not Red Book Audio)!!!!!!!!
I'm not sure I'd call the whole show transphobic, however I only remember two or three times they mentioned transgender people on the show and it was always in a bad context.
One time Sheldon and Leonard were discussing how Penny was an improvement in almost every way over the previous tenant next door who was a tall muscular black transsexual (that's the word they used). Another time Howard told a story where he hooked up with someone only to find out that they were a pre-op transsexual, which got him an "Oooohh" of pity from the audience/laugh track.
I thought that was Rust's job! Rust can only be mastered by trans women and femboys.
Their wife wants a divorce because they're an asexual king? /s
I wonder why they use A/B root in the first place instead of a single BTRFS partition with Subvolumes and snapshots
Most very recent laptops no longer support S3 sleep which used to be the default for a long time. On my old laptop it allowed me to just close the lid in the evening and open it again in the morning, and it would only loose a negligible amount of charge during that time.
My new laptop (Dell Inspiron 14 Plus, Alder Lake) uses s2idle by default on Linux (Fedora in my case), which depletes the battery very quickly. I tend to shut down my computer every evening now, but even when I just put my laptop in my bag for 2 hours it will have lost 10-15% when I get it out. It's not terrible and I have gotten used to using my laptop like that but there's got to be a better way right?
I know hibernation / suspend-to-disk is an option in theory, but I use secure boot (and also disk encryption), and that makes it a lot more complicated, involving compiling your own patched kernel, so no thanks.
The way sleep on modern laptops is supposed to work is apparently called S0iX but it is not used by default and I don't know if or how I could make use of it on my laptop, and a guide that is linked everywhere on 01.org now just redirects to some generic intel site.
If you have a recent laptop without S3 sleep support, how are you dealing with this? Do you just live with the poor battery life, or is there some secret to getting more power saving sleep on modern machines?
Edit for mare clarification:
- The laptop does enter s2idle correctly, it just doesn't get down to a very low power state at all and consumes ~5% an hour
cat /sys/power/mem_sleep
only returns[s2idle]
, no deep sleep is supported.echo deep | sudo tee /sys/power/mem_sleep
doesn't work (tee: /sys/power/mem_sleep: Invalid argument
)- There's no option in the BIOS to enable other sleep modes
- I've even tried patching the ACPI table myself to enable S3 sleep and it didn't work. I have no idea if I did it correctly although according to dmesg it did seem to load my patch
Thank you all for your input but it looks like on this Dell laptop I'm stuck with horrible s2idle sleep :/

Okay, perhaps not the most visually impressive meal ever. But it sure was delicious.
I tend to prefer using natural ingredients like mushrooms and nuts rather than artificial / highly processed meat substitutes when cooking vegetarian or vegan meals.
This was not terribly difficult or complex to make (finely chopping the mushrooms took a while though). I definitely recommend giving this recipe a try even if you're not vegan.
