I made the switch recently. I love it but do wish it was a fair bit cheaper.

I just ordered my first TV ever, and its a smart TV of course. My first choice would be to not connect it to the internet, but my wife wouldn’t like that. So i think ill just put it on its own network and block as many domains that it uses to phone home with as i can, without breaking functionality.

In 2017 I bought a ThinkPad with a hidpi screen, which I knew would give me trouble with Linux. Fortunately the Fedora 26 beta had just been released and was using Wayland by default (I wasn’t very Linux savvy to do it myself yet). I’ve been using Wayland on Fedora ever since without issue.

I like wezterm a lot but lately have not been impressed with some breaking changes on the main branch. I know its basically a nightly release, but that’s the recommended way to install according to their website. The devs acknowledged it, and recommended using a tiling manager as the fix.

In Canada, at least in a city, it’s rare that I can’t find things for the same price or cheaper in local stores. Amazon comes in handy for harder to find items though I’ve been using Aliexpress more for those items lately.

I didn’t know about this specifically, but I’m holding onto my 2017 ThinkPad until I can buy an Arm laptop and run Linux on it.

wezterm. Works great on wayland and the documentation is amazing. And it’s built in rust if you’re one of those people.

I have an old mini PC that I’m going to use with proxmox to share some of the load from my nas. Today I setup tailscale and for it working with unbound DNS so I can use my domain when connected.

It’s endless!

Just wanted to say, I searched ddg for a sway everforest theme and was thrilled to see a lemmy link come up.

I’ve used mixplorer for ages, its been great.

Edit: nevermind, apparently its not open source.

I was so excited when I discovered this app. To me it’s one of the most perfect apps. I wish I could use it on desktop.

We used to call this a brown cow.

Magit for Emacs is amazing. It helped me understand git.

For me, they both suck. I’ve been on Linux for close to 10 years now and continue to enjoy it more and more.

However, I will say, that if I need to recommend a computer to somebody who knows nothing about computers and doesn’t want to know anything, I will recommend Apple. I die a little inside each time though, knowing about their right to repair and privacy policies.

Enter the Gungeon is amazing. I just played through Hades, and while it’s a great game, Enter the Gungeon is still my favorite roguelite.

Never heard of them, but terrible mobile website.

Ugh same. I decided to upgrade my very uncomfortable sleeping pad recently which led me to the ultralight subreddit. I went from not having a clue how much my bag weighed to a 10lb base weight, tarp camping, a $400 quilt, 27oz backpack, making my own gear. I don’t even want to count how much I’ve spent in the last year.
