Maybe EndeavourOS (a convenient installer for Arch) with a desktop that supports Wayland.

I run that with Gnome in Wayland mode on my desktop and with Sway (Wayland equivalent of i3) on my laptop and I’ve been very happy with that. You could also run KDE if you prefer

Thanks for the new vocabulary. That’s a useful word

Try Jerboa again if you had trouble. The last couple updates were huge leaps forward

EndeavourOS on desktop and laptop. It’s been working great for years

I removed Edge and IE on my work computer and the only time I had trouble was when I tried to open the built-in manual in some non-Microsoft software and it failed.

I think it used some embedded browser component that Edge or IE provides

Sway is great. What do you use for that top bar?

What podcast? I like a good podcast.

Yeah, I feel like that phenomenon happens elsewhere too. I read the book B.S. Jobs last year, and it talked about is all the (debatably) useless positions popping up at companies - extra layers of management, assistants to make the managers feel important, corporate lawyers that are only there to cause trouble for the other team’s corporate lawyers. Just a whole lot of man-hours spent not making products/services/whatever.

(I wouldn’t say I’m 100% on board with all the book’s arguments, but it sure made me think)

I also like air conditioning

I can’t ever find one good label for myself and here you are with four

Not really sure what the label means, but I’ll join you on the less government team!

With more automation showing up in all different fields, I’m warming up to the idea of UBI or something like it.

Theoretically, more production is happening per human being, so everybody should have a higher standard of living. But (among other issues) people at the top are hoarding an unfair portion of the profits, and UBI seems like a straightforward way to help offset that.

Libertarian-ish, I guess.

Watching the US and other governments going on a power trip has sure been pushing me that way.

I mostly don’t want government involved in anybody’s lives unless they’re harming others. It drives me mad when bureaucracy, police, etc. show up to harass, jail, or kill people that were minding their own business. Plus mass surveillance without a warrant.

On the other hand, I recognize the need for appropriate regulations (to avoid harming people on a broader scale). It also makes sense for them to direct large scale projects like infrastructure and certain services.

So, I guess, make life better for people. Otherwise, mind your own business

Is this 2008 YouTube I see before me? That’s a throwback

Found Cynthia

Always wanted a pet Wingull since I played Emerald. I need to evolve it if it’s actually going to fight though

As the de facto IT guy for my family, I block ads on all their computers just as a basic safety measure.

I can usually spot a fake download button and avoid scammy sites, but my parents and grandparents seem magnetically attracted to them

Hard to believe that got us to the moon

Yeah, sorry. I meant one of the PC Yogas. I think mine is the C930

You actually probably could get a different Linux distro running on an Android tablet, but it would probably take more work than on a PC

I have one too and also love it. Runs Linux just fine
