Sucks to hear your experience being so terrible. Either I’m so coloured by the hellish experience of booting Linux on a surface (which is easy, but so many small issues after each update) or booting Linux on a mac is really easy.

BUT

I do agree, get something like a system76 for ease of use. I have dabbled with Linux, custom roms and other “hacky” stuff my whole life. I’m so used to it being hard that the experience these days feels as easy as booting windows

Don’t know where you are from, but I got a MacBook Pro 2015 for 150 and it can be forced to the latest macOS or just any distro of your liking. I will say that it can get quite hot and it’s recommended to switch the cooling paste and clean the fan.

For a cheap device it works fine and in this price bracket a better screen is barely possible.

I do have a surface book 2 that I will sell between 150 and 200, but I think Linux support is finicky at best. I ran popos on it, but there are just a bunch of things which would work a lot better on other devices

Fun game, but not actual chess indeed!

I’ve attempted a few, but keep going back to my phone or a pc. I also got a chessnut air (secondhand, otherwise they can be quite pricey), this way I can play online but still on the board.

Might you find a good one to play, please share!

Just install AdGuard. Works great.

I have three. One still fully packaged for when the other two die

Mill some grains to flour and bring that flour to the queen so she can make some loafers

And that’s exactly my point! Same with rice, you can have rice in a few minutes via the microwave. I like to be in control of my food however and quite often choose the longer road so I have better choice in how the rice or potato comes out

As someone who worked in a kitchen quite long, a microwave is a good tool and never the best substitute

How does that feel? I’ve only been at the other end…

Torchlight 2 is fun when you start out, but gets really repetitive quite fast. Good fit for a right in the middle

I don’t refuse to use other clients, if said clients are usable

Cheap headphones and a connector to make them sound good via Bluetooth pretty much. A lot better sound than AirPods Pro 2 André passive noise cancellation is also enough to drown out most noises

Some chifi buds and a (Bluetooth) dac.

I have a pair of kz prx (planars, 37 bucks) and a hiby w3II (good enough over by and oké over cable, 40). If you don’t need by I will recommend the trn black pearl as it has the same parts as some of its more expensive counterparts

I have seen it before! Also not confident enough for it haha

Yeah that’s keeping me from it as well. And maybe the fact that I use a keychron at work that I can just connect via bt to my phone for some lengthier chats

Maybe a phone with a clicks case? I’ve been contemplating getting one for my iPhone, but I think it will be way too top heavy. They’ve also now done one for the moto razr series foldables, those lend themselves a bit better for the extra length of a keyboard

But you will always give someone else credit for it

I know haha, I have above average hands. I really like the steam controller with the same reason and remember the n64 controller fondly

Wait, people think the Xbox controller is too big??? I find the ps controller too small and it cramps my hands!

I get that it is annoying for you since you obviously don’t have a pc that will run it, yet.

But a lot of problems in tech started because it was just there and didn’t do that much yet. Lots of governments are still catching up to the big tech to stop them from having too much power, because they slept on it.

I dislike the recall stuff too, I don’t have a pc that will be able to run it and probably won’t have one for the coming 10 years, unless there is a huge leap in performance. But I do appreciate all the people here making their voices heard and actually bending MS their knee as well.

So please filter it and get out of the way of the nice people, thank you
