The price seems reasonable, thanks.

They look great, thanks for the suggestion.

Less than 100€, but from what I gather this is quite an expensive hobby! As far as features are concerned I wouldn’t know where to begin. I suppose I quite like the Thinkpad X220’s keyboard experience, if that can be translated at all to mechnical keyboards.

Is there a way to assess which packages on my linux distribution aren’t open source? I’m planning on having a secondary machine which is exclusively open source, but not sure how I would go about ensuring that is the case.

Great! This is the kind of answer I’ve been looking for. Thank you.

I guess my question is why so? How vulnerable are my devices with a compromised device on the network?

No biometrics! Just wanted to clarify the only difficulties related to typing my password are its length

Agreed - the message I was trying to convey is that I use a very secure password, which sacrifices convenience for security - is this necessary though? I have no concerns related to memorising or particular difficulties typing it out as it follows a passphrase structure for the most part.

Okay, after trying a few different options out I think we have a winner :) Firefox suits my needs the best, thanks for the suggestion

I’ll give it a shot and see if it’s compatible. Cheers

Not too familiar with it, in what way would you consider it better?

My use case is a pdf of a book which is meant to be read across two pages - wouldn’t work if it’s displaying pages 1 and 2 together instead of pages 2 and 3, if you see what I’m saying. Does Zathura allow for that?

Not the only meme I fell for… Anyone know the best way to unload 5 thinkpads that originally shipped with Windows 7??

Arch wiki is superb, couldn’t have installed or configured Arch without it.

Makes sense. Do you find that by having the same install for so long (including transplanting it) that you have accumulated a lot of bloat? One of the things I really enjoyed about a fresh install was that I knew there wasn’t a build-up of digital junk files, but with Arch fresh installing every once in a while just seems impractical.

In a way this post is just long-form “I use Arch, btw” 🤯

Both :) Manual classic install doesn’t strike me as particularly complicated.

Flatpak is much better, thank you for the suggestion.

Okay, well switching to flatpak solved it. Thanks!

Good suggestion. What does this mean? [Parent 4226, Unnamed thread 762a7e8fd280] WARNING: Failed to set scheduler settings: Operation not permitted: ‘glib warning’, file /builds/worker/checkouts/gecko/toolkit/xre/nsSigHandlers.cpp:187
