  • Any chances you guys could suggest me one setup that “just works” no ifs and no buts? Or does it not exist in the Linux world?

    You’ve given so little insight into your experience

    My most recent hardware has been fine

    • My framework 13 amd works perfectly with Fedora Kinoite.
    • My Minisforum UM780XTX has been a great Steam console with Bazzite
    • My desktop is a gigabyte x570 board with a ryzen 3700X and a 5700XT GPU, has been solid for years, running Fedora KDE and then Kinoite.
    • My workstation at work is a HP 845 G11 and it works fine, also running Fedora Kinoite

    In the past I’ve had thinkpads (an X1 carbon and a T485), also good choices

    Over my 12 years of using Linux as my daily for work and home (and about 13 years of fiddling with it on and off before that), avoid realtek hardware, avoid nvidia gpus, avoid switchable graphics, avoid strange OEM feature devices. Check hardware for compatibility before you buy it. Stick to mainstream distros, not niche 1 man community distros. I’ve moved to immutable/atomic distros because they are harder to tinker with outside of user space, as historically tinkering is what got me into trouble, now I do that in a container away from my base OS.












  • Another fun fact is that the original radio edit that charted is different from the album version / version that is on streaming these days. It lacks verse 3

    And when the plane came in, she said she was crashing The velvet, it rips in the city We tripped on the urge to feel alive But now, I’m struggling to survive Those days you were wearing that filthy dress You’re the priestess, I must confess Those little red panties, they pass the test Slides up around the belly face down on the mattress one And you hold me And we are broken Still it’s all that I want to do, just a little now





  • I bought premium years ago as part of Google Music family (pre yt-music) and stuck with it, it was affordable. I am more than capable of blocking the ads over the years. Other members of my family want to use YT without ads on a myriad of devices. When the price got hiked at the start of the year I was really annoyed, and probably would have dropped the service if it were just me. However my family made it pretty clear that they did not want to jump through the hoops of blocking the ads.
