Just opened my board with Gateron yellows pre lubed. The blue ones aren't lubed. I found similar marks all over the keyboard. Can these marks be dangerous and how do I deal with them?

They seem to be under the transparent plastic sheet on which the switches are mounted. I think it has foam underneath.

WTF? I'm automounting my home directory from an external ssd usb for ages now. What is the disaster that could happen you're referring to?

Sorry but could you please elaborate. I've been using nvidia forever in linux machines both at work and at home. I work in AI so using nvidia gpus is a must. Maybe there's something that I missed but my experience has been pretty solid so far.

At home I am using openSUSE tumbleweed KDE wayland and at work ubuntu headless.

I don't see why it won't play nice with linux but as to if you should buy this laptop... it doesn't look in a good shape. I am a bit biased as I had poor experience with laptops with gpus. Old laptops can have bent heatsinks so you can't control the temps no matter what. If yiu are hell bent on buying it then I'd recommend to stress test both gpu and cpu and look for heavy thermal throttling

There should be a git cli client that plays gifs instead of errors.

Developers when they search for a bug and no google result comes up. ChatGPT starts hallucinating mad and starts suggesting generic steps that you already did. And you've been slacking off for a few days because you know it's small biscuits and you can clutch in a few hours. But you start working just before the deadline and now the dread is slowly setting in.

Need to scratch the same itch with my friends, in oder of priority:

  1. Available on pc and has full coop campaign.
  2. Military shooter that has cod like difficulty.
  3. Decent graphics. Not a hard requirement but this is one of the reason that WAW isn't working for us. It's showing it's age.
  4. Old guns.

Bonus points if the game environments are destructable.

Please no zombie game like L4D2 etc. Soldier on soldier combat is our jam.

Only if battlefield 1 had coop that'd been perfect.

Thanks!

Okay lol, my bad. I guess I have been living in an echo chamber when it comes to that game. Earth Defense Force. Love the series. You save the earth ... by destroying it.

Well the best thing about it is that she wouldn't even touch linux before this. She's primarily a mac user. But after I dragged her to see my desktop modifications, after 10 eye rolls, she said she could do much better job than me.

Hours later she was still at it, hairs scattered, baffled looking... saying how could someone live with so many choices lol.

The good thing out of this was that now she's starting to see the point of linux after all these years.

Eh, let it fall. I have been wanting to replace that samsung 4k crap that looks worse than 1080p chinese monitors

Close. Army housing. It's free so I am not complaining!

Hour after I come to this, I'm loving it. She modified it so it retains original kde look but has enough tiny details to keep it interesting. She says she'll resume the work tomorrow 🫡

There should be a sub for this kind of stuff so I can block it.

There are so many. By usage however:

Smart Audiobook Player: None of the apps I tried had all the features in one, like reading my complex audiobooks folder structure and auto grouping the books based on that. Timer to pause audiobook that is automatically reset by moving the phone.

Maps: No foss solutions work better where I live than GMaps

YTMusic: So this is a tough one to beat because of the nature of the platform itself.

Notes: I am looking for a P2P syncable note app that can also have a web interface or atleast a Linux version of the App. Allows drawing your notes on an android phone or tablet using stylus, and other usual features. Can also use cloud storage as a backup or sync source. I know this one is a really tall order.
