the computer isn’t beige enough.

I bought the Asus Tuf A16 AMD Advantage laptop. I installed Arch on it and it’s been great. Got it for $600 on eBay. Put 32gb of RAM in it and a 2tb nvme drive into the second slot. Left the 512gb drive it came with.

The past 2 years I’ve only been using Arch with KDE plasma. It was the one that clicked with me and got me to stay using Linux. Before I ran pop! Os for a little while and didn’t really like it or gnome then I went back to windows.

You boot into your installation media and type archinstall then pick the options you want. You can do it the manual way but Arch install works great.

I had 7 and am down to 2 because of a coyote.

Just used Arch install. Later on when I launched discover it said it couldn’t be used without flatpak. So I installed flatpak and that was it.

That’s what I’m trying to do. All I want to do is try out kmail which I’m assuming is a flatpak because that’s the only option I see to install it. But non of the apps.kde.org software pulls up in discover.

I am on Arch but I have already installed flatpak with pacman. Everything else works on Discover. The only thing that doesn’t is specifically all of the KDE software.

Everyone always asks about my diet and then they are always shocked and amazed. I work construction and stopped eating processed food as much as possible. I have the same conversation everyday. The burrito lady pulls up, and everyone stops to buy one. I walk to my truck and eat an orange and some dates, maybe some cashews. Everyone is like your not going to get a burrito, that’s crazy. We all went out to lunch the other day. Ordered a salad with grilled chicken and it blew everyone’s mind. The other superintendent was all "are you Jewish or something."I said nope I’ve just lost 30 pounds in 6 months. Then he was like “wait really? You lost 30 pounds just by changing what you eat?” I was like yep that’s all it took. Also apparently he doesn’t know what kosher food is.

I choose what I want when I install. I use Arch btw

I say the word pecan differently depending on what I’m talking about. If it’s just the pecan itself I say it like pea-con. If it’s a pecan pie I say it pea-can. Not sure why. I also live in a place with a bunch of pecan orchards so the word comes up fairly frequently.

I have 13 goats. They are all like dogs. It’s hard to feed them in the mornings without tripping over them.

Been using KDE for 2 years and love it. Only weird issue is my old desktop i am running Arch with KDE headless to stream to the steam link in the kids room and plasma shell crashes a bunch. Still haven’t figured out why.

My daughter plays slime rancher off my desktop running Arch streaming to the steam link in her room.

I’ve been using heroic game launcher. Easier then Lutris and bottles.

On top of that. I just got a new laptop and bit locker was setup by default. Had to go into Windows and disable bit locker before disabling secure boot. I didn’t do that, RE enabled secure boot, then had to get the recovery key for bit locker.

Been doing this for like 2 years. It’s great and the entire family can easily use it.

Edit: But have stremio on a Chromecast.

I do construction work and travel every week. I’ve had this problem pop up in the last month when I connect to the hotel wifi. I just open Firefox and type in the default gateway IP and then it takes me to the login page. For whatever reason it stopped opening the page for me.

I’ve been using Arch for a year and nothing has broken. Did have to “fix” a lot of stuff after install because it was my first time using Arch and didn’t realize all the other stuff I had to install… Mainly to get my Nvidia GPU to work. But a few hours later and it’s been rock solid since.
