I started with mint because of ppl recommending it. Absolutely hated it. Luckly I watched a YouTube video about installing arch. So then I tried it and loved it. Then manjaro for about 2 years. Then back to arch. Then finally Nixos, and I dont plan on ever switching again. I have Nixos on every system I own now, and a few friends machines. Those are just the main ones. I tried all the other popular ones out on my laptop. Except gentoo.

TLDR: Mint🙁>Arch😄>manjaro🙂>arch😄>NixOs😁

I submitted a request for !leta. If it gets rejected I’ll try what you said. +1 for Firefox.

This is awesome. Is there a DDG !bang for this? I would love to use it in place of !g for the few times I resort to !g.

This is the way.

Unexpected good elon take. Patents and copyright laws have probably held us back at least 50 years worth in advancements. So much R&D is just solving problems that have already been solved.

I’m actually not familiar with this distro. But if I installed a Linux distro, and it had brave installed. I would immediately switch.

Just buy the lifetime Plex pass before the price goes up then.

If you have Plex pass you dont have to worry about it. Others can still remote play from your server free. Actually more so because the mobile app is free for them too now.

Deceptive title. If the person hosting the server has Plex pass then it’s still free for other users to use remote playback.

Indeed. I’m not sure when they added mobile support back, but it wasn’t there when I last looked for it. Guess its time for me to move my PWAs out of brave now. Thanks.

Yes, they did that when the EU made the ruling about allowing other app stores. Apple doesn’t like PWAs cause they lose their 30% cut. Hopefully we some ruling or law that they have to treat them equal to native apps.

I dont use many PWA’s since I had to run them on chromium before. But as a web Dev and even more so as a user, I feel like PWA’s are the way to go. They completely avoid all the app stores drama plus the 30% fees. Also the devs get to deploy instant updates without the delay going through the app stores. Just like any other web app. If done right I could see them replacing most native apps. Assuming we can get apple to allow PWAs full CPU usage. Currently they are throttling them from what I understand.

Edit: To clarify I’m speaking about mobile. I’ve never even tried PWAs on desktop and can’t imagine why I would use that over browser+bookmarks.

Zen is pretty cool.

Their website has over an hour wait time. If the price is good this laptop could be big. I hope it keeps the good Linux compatibility their other ones have.

You convinced me I need to appreciate tailscale somehow even more than I do.

services.tailscale.enable = true;

How usable is this? I don’t know much about RISC-V. But when I DL software I only ever see X64 and ARM options.

If its just a simple static page. Just use cloudflare pages. It scales to zero and would probably be completely free for your use case.

Vercel is even easier to setup but they don’t allow businesses on the free tier so it would be $20 a month for pro plan.

Being a Linux user I really like everything being ran in the browser. What if we just have more control of which JS APIs can be used? On a site by site bases. Which I assume can probably already be done with extensions.

I’ve had no issues with it so far. Its been my go to for awhile. But I don’t use windows for anything important. Malware bytes scans don’t find anything.

Thanks, both of your points are good. I was thinking about it in terms of what OP is trying to do. Having key on the same drive. Putting the key on a separate drive or even the cloud like someone else suggested makes sense. I have all of my computers on manual. Since I don’t have anything critical enough that it can’t wait till I’m back home to start it back up.
