I use Arkane Linux, which is based on Arch but is immutable. Every update is a new install. You can easily configure custom images to deploy for your specific wants or needs. It's nice for keeping up to date with Arch while keeping how my machine is configured declared in an image. You can always roll back if something was wrong with the image you deployed too.

If you're running the most recent kernel, I'd recommend moving to linux-lts. I have slightly similar specs, KDE Wayland, 6900 xt and 5800, and I had issues with games straight up crashing out my PC on the latest kernel.

If they get their hands on an LTSC ISO they can hold out on Windows 10 a little longer.

I'd say in a good bit of cases better than Google now. Each time I've resorted to Google because I think I'm getting lackluster results, it's got the same results but also a bunch of SEO dogshit I have to sort through. Kagi's personal site ranking and filters make it worth it too.

It's a paid service that in return respects privacy, and has results as good as Google's.

Google doesn't say "Fuck you, Pay me" because you are the product.

Intel gave more detail to Tom's Hardware and they updated the article up top. This still sounds a little disingenuous to me, like they're still trying to minimize the issue with words and no action.

Gamer's Nexus has a recent video with some possible explanations.

It feels great to live in the US, a first world shithole.

It's a known issue with tailscale. It drains my battery pretty bad as well. I had to opt for wireguard for remote access instead.

I just started toying with Arkane Linux. It's fairly easy enough to make your own image and they provide some simple templates you can use if you don't want Gnome. To me, the greatest thing about Arch is the AUR and unfortunately it doesn't support AUR packages out of the box. This might not be a problem since you could mostly get along with flatpaks or distrobox. It might be a chore for someone new to Arch to have to compile something straight from the AUR that your device needs to function, like what I've had to do.

Kagi is great. Excellent search results for the most part, better than either DDG or Google in my experience.

As a gem and mineral collecting hobbyist I feel this pain so, so much.

I look forward to using LinkWarden eventually! My current bookmark setup involves both LinkDing and WallaBag which is a little quirky. Hopefully soon Wallabag exports could be imported and I'd be good to migrate.

Privacy, Windows 11, and the fact that my system is more stable running Linux. I could count on a BSOD happening once or twice a week due to a driver issue with Windows 10. I still get strange crashes on Linux, but much less often.

For me, I know it doesn't offer much privacy if its locally hosted, but the latency compared to using public instances is much better. Which may sound stupid, but at least I also don't have to depend on another person for their instance.

I have been self-hosting a local Invidious instance for several months. I watch videos from it every day and I've had no IP ban so far.

I'll boldly say that unless you have a multitude of games relying on anticheat, 90% of your game library works out of the box or just needs a little tinkering with Proton.

Alpine Linux would be one of the lightest distributions to make the most of your hardware. I use it myself to host my docker services.

It seems they may be deleting comments urging them to address Madison's experience on their apology video too.

I didn't realize how important Reddit was to get quality results from Google. Without Reddit almost the whole 1st page is just SEO optimized sites. It's just ironic that alternate search engines are better than Google now.
