phew!
I don’t care what you do with your data… As long as your being careful with my data.

At the end of the day… Cloud storage is just using someone else’s computer.
Agreed. Although I will say… While people not reading the articles was extremely common on reddit… Sadly, I feel like Lemmy is even worse about it.
With AI absolutely exploding… It’s very easy to ask for step by step directions to accomplish things. AI clearly still needs to mature… But… The times I’ve asked it for some basic, step by step directions, it’s been effective.
While I don’t disagree videos make a lot of things easier (I for sure am a visual learning, no question), the step by step instructions for things I’ve gotten have been good, and very easy to follow.
Absolutely hate the fact that their drivers and firmware updates (for servers) are stashed away behind ludacris support contracts.
Have a simplivity stack at work, and for two nodes with an off site DR, needed an $8,000 support contract just to get the latest drivers and firmware to upgrade to the latest VMware version simplivity supports.
One shot deal, as we are already planning the move away from VMware and getting plans together for budgets to do so…
Maybe they all do this…? Admittedly I’ve not had to go looking for drivers or firmware updates on the few dells we have as they are air gapped systems that just run for a very specific purpose… So I honestly am not sure. But HP absolutely sucks in this regard as far as Im concerned.
I picked up an Epson eco tank printer for my wife a couple years ago, and it’s been fantastic! My wife, being a kindergarten teacher has a knack for absolutely killing printers… And this little Epson has been a work horse!!! I have nothing but good things to say about it!
See… I’m the opposite… I change and hip around and reinstall across various machine so often, changing the setting has just become second nature… I don’t even think about it anymore! Hahahaha
I feel like we’ve seen this show before…
I’m sure Trump just wanted to talk… And… If I’m the prosecution I’d probably be OK with it, banking on this exact outcome. Haha
Just to add to this… I rarely print anything, but my wife (an elementary school teacher) prints all kinds of stuff! We picked up an eco tank printer from Epson. We’ve had it now for a coupe years and it’s been fantastic! We would replace ink cartridges a few times a year previously… Where as with the eco tank we do about once a year. The print quality has held up, and it’s just been a good little work horse for her!
I’m forced to use windows in my career life… But I moved to Linux entirely at home back in 05-06.
Cpu is an i5, and I forget what specific model but I can check. My carbon is an older Gen 5. It also just uses the Cpu for graphics… No dedicated graphics card. Battery life is good concidering the age (the battery is still original, and I get probably 3 hrs with moderate use. My carbon also is the 8gb (ram) model. On this particular model the ram is soldered on, so upgrading isn’t an option (without replacing the board, obviously).
Now, for me… I use the machine for work. I’m a systems administrator and spend most of my time remotong into servers and end user machines… So the work load on the laptop is on the lighter side. I do have various vm’s that I spin up form time to time, but never more than one at a time.
Anyway, as I said before, it has been the single greatest Linux experience on a laptop I’ve ever had. Everything just works, and it’s been rock solid. I’ve been running this machine as a daily driver for work now for about three years.
Edit: Love the down vote, also. Makes me feel like this is reddit all over again. Lmao. Down vote for sharing an opinion of what’s been the best Linux on laptop experience I’ve ever had. Whoever down voted me… Can you correct me and tell me the correct answer for what has been the best Linux experience on a laptop? I’m obviously mistaken.
Just my two cents… But my x1 carbon, running tumbleweed has been my single greatest Linux on laptop experience, ever… And I’ve used many different laptops over the years. System76, framework, Lenovo, Dell, Asus, hp, apple… My x1 has been absolutely amazing!
Good deal. After my post I saw someone else had also suggested the \040, prior to me… I just hadn’t read all the comments. Glad it’s sorted.
Issue is with the space in “New Volume”, I bet. Should likely be /media/lucky/New\ Volume
Or, I vaguely remember having to add like \040 or something in place of the space. I’ve dealt with this in the past… And found it easier to use a “-” instead of a space… Or no space at all, obviously.
I’ve always just used audacious. It’s been good. That said, I recently installed plex amp and the more I used it, the more I like it!
My preferred daily has been opensuse tumble weed on my self built desktop and Lenovo laptops. I had been using Leap on a couple old MacBooks (one air, and one mbp). I tried nixos about 6 months ago and I’ve migrated several of my machines over to nix. Opensuse and nix are without question my top two.
Servers, I run Debian server, Ubuntu server, and rocky.
Lindows was my first Linux experience ever. I was in high school (so this was probably around 2002, as I graduated in 03). Being my first Linux experience I remember the KDE DE and thinking how cool it was the I could customize the clock in various ways (digital, analog, etc).
That started the journey. Dabbled and distro hopped for a few years, and went full linux in probably 07. I’ve never looked back.
Nvidia breaks on me at least twice a year using Tumbleweed. But… That’s my own fault, as I just update almost daily… And too many times I’ve done an update that breaks nvidia. I can’t speak to this issue with leap, as I’ve not run Leap on my machine with an nvidia card.
Kinda like most liberals who generally scream about better gun control/laws… But are REALLY disappointed Trump didn’t take that bullet to head directly.
