French protestors says Windows 10's ESU will only leave users in the lurch, potentially rendering millions of PCs obsolete as they upgrade to Windows 11.

I’m not falling asleep, my laptop is falling asleep.
The problem is that it never wakes up. The solution is to disable every low-power option in system settings, and pretend that my laptop is very critical server, because Debian is made for servers.
Did the system requirements screen at least warn you that you need wholly unrelated 3rd party software for it? Its like if I was trying to load up QuickBooks and it was like “Please insert slice of aged cheddar into drive A: to proceed.”
I realize its not a perfect analogy-- lots of people like aged cheddar.

I’m not quite sure how people use Debian on a desktop machine. Do you not fall asleep while you’re using it?

The interesting part of using my computer shouldn’t be my OS, but the software I use on it.
That’s what Mint is for. It just gets out of my fucking way. Most of the time I’m not aware that I have an OS.
I like buttered toast
Every single morning!

I had to install edge on my steam deck to be able to play 1 game. I cursed the machine spirit
