It’s just way faster for me most of the time. I can hit F12, do what I need, and be done without messing around with a mouse or touchpad.

I have that same laptop, and it sounds perfect for what you want. Cheap, repairable, and runs linux well.

Awesome, thanks! I’m going to give it a shot.

Can i still use sync with dekstop Firefox? How about add-ons?

You can already selfhost.

I used syncthing for a while. Then tried github with mostly terrible results. Now i’m back on syncthing. It involves a little bit of setup, but i mostly forget about it now. It just works.

I still say “Rufio! Rufio!” almost every time I see a picture or mention of Dante Brasco, which is more frequently than you might think since ATLA is one of my comfort/background shows.

One of them is following me, but with a bunch of extra spaces after the exclamation point.

I don’t usually check my followers, but I happened to be in there a couple days ago. The only person following me then was my wife, so this bot/spam is relatively new.

I use an Amazfit GTR 2e, and it works almost perfectly with gadgetbridge. The only difficulty I have is i’m unable to manually update A-GPS data, so getting a GPS lock can take a while. But I don’t use it a lot, and honestly, the Fitbit Versa I came from wasn’t all that much better.

I hope it’s obvious from your story, but just in case. Everyone, please don’t ever pour gasoline on a fire. It isn’t worth it.

My wife and I had a similar conversation the other day. The kids were being a handful, and she said, “Why do people even have kids?”

And I said it’s because society lies to you. “You’ll never feel emotionally/mentally/financially ready for kids. Just do it!”

I always tell people that you need to be 110% sure. I wouldn’t trade my kids for anything, but I sure do miss the quiet, free time, and extra money.

If I only read on my phone, I’d use Librera. But for syncing between my Onyx Boox device and my phone, KOReader is hard to beat.

Your second point is a big one for me. If I hit the gym in the morning, I’m more likely to make better food choices throughout the day. Conversely, if I skip a planned gym day, i’m more likely to binge on anything I can get my hands on…

I dove headfirst recently and switched from KDE Plasma to Hyprland. I ended up using someone else’s config as a base, and I’m still tweaking, but so far, I have no regrets.

The PWA support on android isn’t great either. At least compared to chrome or even Samsung Internet.

I don’t follow any best practices. AUR, updates without checking the feed, etc. Been on arch for 2 years or so without any major issues.

Two days ago I decided to give hyprland a try just for some excitement. Lol.

You can use the archinstall script and get it setup in however long it takes to install everything.

I recently went through the process of manually setting up hyprland. Only after finding out it was added to archinstall…

I think, at last count, I had something like 50-60 docker containers running. I’m starting to hit the limit of what my 10-year-old hardware is capable of, so i’ve started saving for an upgrade. Lol.

My laptops and RPis aren’t named anything interesting. My server is named Lyla though. I let my youngest kid pick the name.

Thanks for suggesting mosh! I use termux a lot for ssh, and mosh looks like it will fix some of my biggest issues with it. Mainly losing connection when switching networks.
