RAID is a great backup alternative.

Do I have to enable HDR in Plasma settings? Because when I do, and then log out, plasma crashes and I have to log into a different DE and disable HDR in the terminal.

Does this mean I could finally enjoy HDR content on my OLED HDR monitor?

Yeah that’s what we do but it pales in comparison to FB Messenger’s polling system, apparently.

I guess I meant it’s a lot of work to set up initially. Especially if you don’t have experience.

I like the idea of deduplication and checksumming to prevent bit rot. It also sounds like backups via snapshots is extremely powerful, but maybe that’s something btrfs can do too.

Ultimately though it would be about learning. That’s what’s drawn me to Linux in the first place.

The number of times my family complains about signal not having polls…

I don’t have experience with this because I use Google docs for simple documents and latex for anything serious, but it may help.

I wonder how this compares to DarkTable?

I ran arch on it for about a year - it’s a gen 9 i5. During that time I had a desktop that ran W10 on a gen 3 i5 and was quite a competent machine. Then with W11 and the TPM requirement that perfectly good windows box became ewaste.

The laptop is fine. Windows 11 is just garbage.

Yeah they transferred all of our network files held on our own private servers over to Teams. I didn’t even know that teams did file storage. I guess through one drive.

I can’t even change the length of time before the screen locks.

No, I can’t.

As a 36 year old who smoked almost daily from the age of 13 until 33, I can tell you that there are a lot of benefits to not smoking.

What is the value in federating Nextcloud instances? Sharing calendar info and stuff like that?

I prefer turning off all the breakers in my house, but whatever floats your boat!

Exact same over here. I don’t want an online account. I just don’t. I never will. I’d used Linux desktop a few times in the past but gaming was always bringing me back to windows. Finally my windows machine broke for no reason and after weeks of not being able to fix it I just installed Linux on top of it. Haven’t considered going back.

I know what you mean. My Linux machine breaks all the time but every time it’s my fault lol

I wonder if HomeKit and HomeKit bridge would satisfy that itch.

I set it up so I can use Siri to open my garage door. Works great! You just need at least one HomeKit device like an Apple TV or a HomePod.

Zathura, although it can be a little challenging to navigate on your first few goes.
