Artix, basically Arch. Replaced Pulseaudio with Pipewire as user service. Same issue with PA tho.

Yeah, i read a bit into Elementary later and hard to change design was a common complaint.

Hum, don’t know if this is a pipewire issue or if the DeskMini has too bad shielding (then again, DAC is outside via USB-C). But each time i have slightly huge CPU load, audio starts glitching with crackling to the point of failing altogether until restart of the audio server.

A president is allowed to found companies?

Either way, he sure has time on his hands.

I vastly prefer connman/iwd, always had weird issues with NM. Currently running connman-gtk on XFCE.

And tweaking to your needs, isn’t that expected for a new desktop setup? One hour isn’t even that much.
I’m amazed again and again how stuck even technical people can be in their habits.

Older ones work usually better in Wine/Proton than on Windows.

Ok, admitelly, mainboard vendors can mess that up via default settings.

Laptops get a pass on overheating

No, they fucking don’t. That’s not how modern processors work.

Licensing, among others. Google doesn’t like the GPL.

Again. Not the first time for US.

Please stop meddling in foreign affairs.

Society is always fractured in a shift of values. More extreme examples are women rights and christ/islamic values vs. secularism.

Worse performance & accessibility, more restricted UI-Features, needs work to port… and now you need to care for mobile too.

Better pack it in Flatpack instead.

This will be a privacy nightmare.

In the span of just a few months, $80 games have gone from an all-new idea that nobody liked to a reality that more and more of us would have to deal with.

Lol, no. I’ll just wait.

But material costs don’t matter much in computer pricing.

CPUs are not made in a home depot.

Why put CAD software in the browser?

No.
