Yeah, the toast is too many calories I'm on a kiddo keto diet.

Nah back in the day that kid had his own job in the mines and pulled their weight instead of being a leech on the family.

More of an amuse bouche

I got into a discussion on Lemmy a while back about cadmium and lead in chocolate and someone linked a study stating that some of the lead contamination can come from leaded gasoline fumes during transportation. May be a contributing factor in this case as well.

Haha, fair enough, I feel that. I've been procrastinating on my home lab maintenance.

I like EndeavourOS (Arch based) and OpenSUSE Tumbleweed (or Gecko Linux). But if you prefer sticking with apt based distro Debian Sid is a rolling release.

If it isn't encrypted you should be able to mount the Windows partition from Ubuntu

Kind of... The problem with full DEs like GNOME and KDE is that they pull in a lot of dependencies and make a lot of changes. So it can break visuals or change icons in each others environments or install apps with duplicate functions. Something like i3 has a lot less clutter because it expects the user to build their own environment.

The best way to try out KDE would be to install it under a new user on your system so it doesn't conflict with your original home directory. Or you could boot up a live image of Kubuntu or some other KDE flavored Linux distro and mess around with it a bit to see if you want to commit to it.

While you can install KDE on mint without issues (apt install kde-plasma-desktop) I would recommend installing a KDE focused distro because sometimes they have better default configs.

But Plasma should be able to do win + arrow keys out of the box and current versions of Plasma should have basic tiling functions by dragging a window around and holding shift. If there's anything you don't like it's a very configurable platform.

Self driving carts, probably too expensive

Classic death. Glad you're enjoying it!

Probably not what you're looking for but this behavior works very well on KDE Plasma.

Moonlight is the best remote desktop experience I've ever had. With both ends hard wired I can't even tell there's a delay. Works well on Wayland too.

It's very hard but tons of fun! Very rewarding when you get it down. Check out DunkOrSlam if you need any tips or want to see some cool runs. There's even a "multiplayer" mod.

Food Network

Nah since 2008 according to Wikipedia. But I feel like Asahi would be a siphon coffee maker

Linus Torvalds uses Fedora lmao

This is an aside, but I also want to give Proton points for their calendar app. I used to use Gsuite and Google calendar and no matter what I did it always opened in agenda mode. The Proton calendar has all the features of Google calendar (as far as I can tell) but their app has an option for default display mode. That brought me incredible joy.

Yeah this isn't really much of an issue with EFI now. You can change boot order in the BIOS and things are way less likely to get overwritten or broken. You can even have 2 EFI partitions if it's something your concerned about.

I'm no expert but have you taken the board out and checked it out? Might be some corrosion or bridging going on that's interfering with the connection. Might be worth trying to clean it up with some isopropyl alcohol if you're planning on swapping it out anyway.

Supposedly you can configure Firefox add-ons via Nix's home manager and NUR but you'll probably still have to do a lot of research :P
