  • If a person from 1700 asked you your job, would they understand your answer, and if not, how would you explain it to them?

  • oh, he does archeology youtubes and just did a video on "the oldest name". He's pretty cool edit: It was a pretty cool video too. he also asked "oldest name we know a lot about" and "oldest name of a non-royal we know a lot about" in that video

  • Do you watch stefan milo?

  • Which new laptop under $300 with upgradeable parts should I be looking at?

    Jump

  • May I recommend further a good desktop pc w/upgradable parts and a used thinkpad laptop for travelling? You can get a good thinkpad for work and small games for $20-50 and they tend to last forever and be easy to repair. my favorite is X series

  • Should I add any other repo?

    Jump

  • Yeah. F-droid's defaults for me have always worked well, and if I want a specific app to be up to date, I'll download it right from the devs (Shattered Pixel)

  • No problem. I actually don't know, but I did find this arch forum post with a suggestion about kernel boot parameters (although yours would be different) this Does that picture look similar (although more dramatic)?

  • thinking of trying linux,

    Jump

  • I have linux distros that i like and work for me, i almost never have issues. I think it depends on hardware, and i think a lot of the issues are just people trying to do things as they used to on windows and things just work a bit different

  • need help restoring permissions on my downloads folder

    Jump

  • My reading was it wasn't based purely on number of files, but metadata related to files and stuff (idk what that is in ext4, but movies tend to be large and complex related to music). it's probably irrelevant because that's still a really small number on a modern hard drive.

  • Linux equivalent of Win+Ctrl+Shift+B? (Restart graphics driver)

    Jump

  • by all means, ask the question AFTER a direct answer

    As original commenter pointed out, by the time they commented there were 12 direct answers to the question, none of which were likely to solve any problems. I think you're qualifying your statement after the fact to regain ground

  • Linux equivalent of Win+Ctrl+Shift+B? (Restart graphics driver)

    Jump

  • But you tell them how to disable and reenable their graphics driver, then xorg crashes, their problem isn't solved and they give up. This question is "what is the problem you are trying to fix?"

    That answer will help someone more than giving them an answer that won't fix anything

  • Linux equivalent of Win+Ctrl+Shift+B? (Restart graphics driver)

    Jump

  • I'm not sure that's true in a lot of linux use cases. Linux and windows handle drivers very differently. There are a lot of graphics problems which have nothing to do with the driver, and when they do it's usually wrong driver instead of driver acting up

  • This hasn't been fixed, at this point should I just reinstall? {Solved}

    Jump

  • Planning on moving over from Windows 10 to Linux for my Personal Work Station. Can't decide which OS I should switch to.

    Jump

  • I used manjaro when I first started, but have had mixed success since then. Some criticisms here about shipping broken userspace (at least with their mobile OS): https://drewdevault.com/2022/08/18/PINE64-let-us-down.html

    But, ubuntu is great for beginners, and i've always had good success with debian, although I'd point beginners to find an installer with non-free firmware until you know what's going on
