The battery that has been consistently working fine for several months went from 95 to 40 percent battery health in a day? I’d rather like to meet your dealer; they’ve got some good stuff.

65w. enough to run a 7600 and an igpu. i set it to performance but returned it to balanced after. what reset process?

no, drains insanely fast. I think it’s limiting itself to 43% charge.

You didn’t get past the title, did you?

I looked at your other comments on lemmy for 30 sec and found that you are clearly joking. So glad everyone understands sarcasm.

I forgot how version numbers work for a second, and that 6.1 is not 6.10.

I highly doubt it on Apple, usually everything but the Macs are really locked down.

I think kde might be working on something like that, but Idk.

I used 11, but had tried linux when I used 10. I was never really trying to switch, more just distrohopping with windows in the mix, and eventually I just never went back.

Do we have a linux circle jerk community yet? If not, that might help.

This post seems lighthearted and not mean-spirited. I do wish they said “awesome” or “great” instead of “the best,” but they’re not trashing other distros and it is relevant so I don’t see the problem.

Any distro you’d like. Use the office / outlook stuff in a browser. I believe kde has a way to use onedrive in dolphin, though personally I would keep my data on my computer unless it is for a group project, just make sure it’s backed up. I’d also have a VM handy with the spice guest tools. It is good to have at least for when you have to hand your computer to someone who may be uncomfortable with linux. I would use debian on a school computer for the ludicrous stability, but use whatever floats your boat.

I’ve seen that most commonly with tor, vpns could cause it to.

Edit: It is not (usually) them deliberately breaking vpns, they block brute force attacks based on public ip instead of a cookie or something.

It sounds like you’re on the right track. As long as you aren’t hosting anything too important, just go for it. The only thing to keep in mind is security, which in your case should be fairly simple.

1. Use common sense: if you never have to enter a password or have a security key to access something, neither does a hacker. You would be amazed how many people host their openhab instances to the internet with no passwords.
2. Use ssh keys and disable passwords. Ssh keys are sort of like giant passwords that sit in a file and you never have to type in. It is counter intuitive, but it is more secure. A giant key is harder to guess than a password. You can also encrypt your key so you need the key and a password, this is useful for laptops which could be stolen.

For how to learn simple html and css, w3schools is your friend. You can learn all the random stuff people become extremely opinionated on eventually, but don’t get overwhelmed by all of it and just do what works for you.

I wouldn’t switch to mint from debian. Freebsd could be worth trying, but I would play with it in a VM first. I am not knowledgeable about BSD’s, but there are others if you were unaware. They have similar names but I think netBSD and freebsd exist. FYI, BSD isn’t linux if you were unaware. Your phrasing suggested that you might think it is so I wanted to let you know.

Newer kernels are great if you need bleeding edge hardware or filesystems, but for your use case I really think debian is the way to go.

I would like to suggest you throw Fedora into the mix, or even opensuse if you want to try an rpm based distro. Opensuse has a leap flavor which is stable like debian. Fedora is fairly stable, but has regular releases (2 a year) so you also get more current software.

Sorry to throw more options into the mix, but those are fairly simple and mainstream options (fedora is more mainstream fyi) but they are worth considering.

Not that this isn’t interesting, but how is it linux related?

Github is microsoft.

You could buy a cheap vps and host your stuff there with basic html that you could learn as you go if you don’t know already. I think their are pre made licenses that you could put on there to stop ai training. You could also hide pages on it full of garbage data for anyone who ignores the license to get bad results.
