Lan-mouse looks great but keep in mind that there’s no network encryption right now. There is a GitHub ticket open and the developer seems eager to add encryption. It’s just worth understanding that all your keystrokes are going across the network unencrypted.
More than distro hopping maybe try out a zen kernel or compiling kernel yourself and changing kernel config and scheduler, or a newer version of the stock kernel?
I’m not super current on what’s in each kernel but I’d expect latest mainline to handle newer processors better than some of the older stable kernels in some of the more mainstream slower releasing distros.
Ran Asahi for several months, tried it out again recently. It’s good/fine, I just don’t love fedora.
There’s some funkiness with the more complicated install, the AI acceleration doesn’t work, no thunderbolt / docking station.
MacBooks are great hardware but I don’t think they’re the best option for Linux right now. If you’re never going to boot into macOS then I’d look for x13, new Qualcomm, isn’t there a framework arm64 option now or was that a RISC module?
I’m also assuming you’re not looking to do any gaming? Because gaming on ARM is not really a thing right now and doesn’t feel like it will be for a long while.
Really love arch and the AUR. I’ve been tempted to get nix set up for the rare cases when there’s no AUR package or the AUR package is unmaintained. I figure if there’s no package in the AUR or nixpkgs, it’s probably not worth running.
btop reports some gpu, network and disk information that I don’t think shows up in htop, feels a bit more comprehensive maybe? Both are fine, but I too use btop, it’s nice.
Random trivia: I think btop has been rewritten like 3-5 times now? It’s sort of an inside joke to the point that someone suggested another rewrite from C++ to Rust ( https://github.com/aristocratos/btop/issues/5 ). I guess the guy just likes writing system monitoring console apps.
Taking ollama for instance, either the whole model runs in vram and compute is done on the gpu, or it runs in system ram and compute is done on the cpu. Running models on CPU is horribly slow. You won’t want to do it for large models
LM studio and others allow you to run part of the model on GPU and part on CPU, splitting memory requirements but still pretty slow.
Even the smaller 7B parameter models run pretty slow in CPU and the huge models are orders of magnitude slower
So technically more system ram will let you run some larger models but you will quickly figure out you just don’t want to do it.
Respect, but…
FWIW they didn’t merge it, they closed the PR without merging, link to line that still exists on master.
The recent comments are from the announcement of the ladybird browser project which is forked from some browser code from Serenity OS, I guess people are digging into who wrote the code.
Not arguing that the new comments on the PR are good/bad or anything, just a bit of context.
I’ve been tempted to try and install plasma mobile on a tablet.
Why no arch install?
Also, the few points others are talking about needing others, there’s a group-finder and I’d say most people running those raids in group finder groups don’t talk at all, so you can just pretend they’re NPCs if you want.
Been 100% linux for like 6-9 months now, these stories make me thankful for finally making the switch.
I’ve tried to make the switch 3-4 times in the past and was stopped by 2 main things:
The experience was so much better this time and I really have no regrets. I don’t imagine I’ll ever run Windows again outside of a VM
Tons of remote jobs out there, probably a higher percentage for startup jobs. Most remote places will have people in different time zones and some sort of core hours they expect people to be in, but having some discussion you’ll probably be able to find one that’s accommodating.
One good site to start looking:
Good luck
Drop.com, Amazon, AliExpress, BangGood
Bets on what percentage of users on that site have that exact regex string as their password? 10%?
Comedy answer: this is one of those sites that doesn’t let 2 people use the same password so it’s only 1 person

Coming from c# then typescript and nextjs, rye feels very intuitive and like a nice bridge / gateway drug into python.
