This is one of the reasons why I am very unsure about the whole archinstall thing. On the one hand, it lowers the barrier of entry for less techy people, which is always good. On the other hand, it allows for installing the OS without ever having to use the archwiki, which leads to people making a blog post like this that could be solved by looking for "bluetooth" in the archwiki and following the instructions. To somebody not familiar with the OS, this makes it seem like arch is much more complicated than it actually is. "To run arch, you have to hope that there is a blog post or youtube video for simple things like bluetooth!"
No, you simply go here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/
(Also very useful resource if you are on any other distro btw)
Not at all, Windows 10 and beyond identify your hardware composition, so as long as you don't swap the mainboard, the license is automatically applied again upon internet connection (assuming you install the same windows version and do not enter another license key during installation). If you want to transfer your data though, get a cheap external USB HDD enclosure and use clonezilla to clone the drive.
Edit: typos
Sorry, saw the reply just now. I use Wayland pretty much exclusively since I switched all my devices to Linix roughly three years ago and I face no issues. Afaik sway is fully compatible with i3 config, so I assume your gestures should just work the same. Hyprland is a different beast, it is still pre-release, so while the state is impressive, do not expect super advanced niche features like gestures (check their wiki to see if they are supported).
I don't use an OSK, whenever I fold, I pretty much use only xournal++ which I navigate with pen and touch. However, there is at least one that I tinkered with some months ago and it worked, I cannot remember the name though (probably got it from the arch wiki). Lid switch detection works well in sway, so I assume configuration for it to come up automatically should be trivial. Again, definitely try sway first, this should give you the best experience. Hope it helps!
I'm not very familiar woth Tailscale but the procedure should be as simple as making sure all the traffic runs through the same exit node. Be aware that this might severely strain the upload of that exit node device bit from a technical point of view, it should work. Wait for someone that actually uses Tailscale to respond with details :)
Edit: are you running tailscale on the machine that accesses netflix or on a router?
Running an HP Elite x360 1030 G2 since 2018 and an Elite Dragonfly since last year, both on Arch linux and Sway (recently Hyprland) with full touch and pen support. Can recommend both!
So you are tryimg to tell me that the operating costs of the CDN are the big reason they need money, not the fact they throw billions at crappy content productions? And that the little performance you would gain by stripping k8s would make a difference, especially wrt the huge additional administration effort and lack of automation this would introduce? Nah man, sorry but you are wrong here in many ways.
I'm getting a bit of weird vibes from Mozilla lately... I like what they do but I'm unsure about how I feel regarding the upcoming rebranding of fennec to firefox mobile and now this. Are they just swallowing other projects now? Strange change in strategy, hopefully no disadvantages for us.
Very true also for the opposite direction; I am daily driving an HP Elite Dragonfly for work and my Elite x360 1030 G2 for private and both work almost flawlessly despite no official Linux support. I have to disclaim that I never tested the Fingerprint reader or IR face recognition crap. But microphone, orientation sensors, webcam, keyboard, trackpad all work extremely well (Arch linux).
It always comes down to the individual hardware it seems.
In line with my experience, tried it to plan a route around northern France this summer and it got stuck a couple of times. Essentially, it tried to route me back to a position earlier in the route and would not recalculate, resulting in me going in a circle twice. Especially annoying if you are on the motorbike and cannot just restart the navigation mid-ride. Switched to the openstreetmap app, their navigation never did such a thing to me. Very weird since the projects seem to be somehow related
Imo this article is mainly playing semantics. Even if they are right and this is seen as "the beginning" one day, the current LLMs only perform well in very narrow tasks, everywhere else they are sub-par to humans. Unfortunately, that will not stop many companies from using them for shit they cannot handle, just to have this blow into the face of society later. That would be the much more interesting talking point; in which areas can we see companies jumping the gun and what will be the problems and dangers that arise from it?
Okay, fair point, so it is relevant for a current issue
