Great link, but OP is looking for an archive solution. I was looking for a self-hosted reddit client so great find!

I love your tutorials. What a fantastic topic. I’d love more tutorials on DNS, certs, decentralized services and the like if you can!

Coming back to this after a year, this is still an amazing picture. Did you buy any more since then?

I wouldn’t be worried about buying AMD in terms of thermals, their laptop CPUs are fine. Usually, it’s the WiFi card that poses the biggest problem in terms of driver availability, in which case you can purchase an Intel WiFi card from Amazon for $15-$20. Battery and “optimizations” depend on your config and distro. Most plug-and-play distros should be fine OOTB, if you’re setting up Arch from scratch I assume you don’t have a problem in looking for drivers/compiling code.

Edit: I personally do not suggest that anyone buys a new laptop unless they do not have a choice (horrible used market or the like). There is a heavy mark-up on new devices and the used market in the West (especially in the US) is excellent if you’re OK with fiddling with some parts of your laptop (or not - sometimes you don’t even need to do that). But being in c/linux that’s about granted, eh?

This is the kind of product I want to see. Inexpensive NAS hardware and chassis which lets the user install their own OS. I wouldn’t be complaining this much if we could do that with Synology’s entry-level DS line but we can’t and it’s annoying because they and QNAP are some of the few who price the entry-level well (in my opinion, that is). It’s really hard to build an entry-level NAS under $200 unless you’re going used and have a chassis handy.

Good luck and let us know how it goes. I should bookmark these guys

Is there a problem though? Yes they does should be concentrating on the language they need to speak when in said country, but it a very good idea to have some grasp of English when you go abroad, just in case you cannot grasp communication from the other party. You don’t want to be stuck in Germany speaking just Vietnamese

That was a bit sarcastic, but my Linux servers are indeed disconnected. I’d create my personal mirror (preferably on BSD and update from there). Now that the cat is out of the bag though, I feel stupid. Really, for CUPS??? Are you kidding me???

Wtf??? “All GNU/Linux”??? This guy made me think Linus personally had to descend to Kernel-land and fix perhaps the most horrendous memory bug in existence. But no, surely CUPS IS ON EVERY MACHINE, RIGHT???

Fuck you to whoever blew this out of proportion.

Why the downvotes?

Eww no. Gives me plenty of trouble on RedHat already

You’ll have to desolder the WiFi card inside. Check teardowns of TVs from now when deciding to buy a new one

It’s a bit difficult, you’ll need be good with your solder.

Deblobbed wife, happy life

You have an amazing wife. Now install Gentoo on her device

I guess it doesn’t bother me much because when I’m using dongles I’m usually sitting down (work, home, in the train etc). YMMV

I can’t prevent capitalism. I’ll just do the best I can. Luckily, good dongles aren’t very expensive and I stay with the more budget IEMs. You might be different; I have seen plenty of Lotoo PAW Golds at CanJams, for example

Which distro does she have installed?

The only headphone jacks worthy of good IEMs are Sony, old LGs and maybe DAPs. That Moondrop device might be an exception but I’d skip a dedicated device and instead buy something I can root and then attach my dongle to, to get around that pesky Android resampling.

What part of my suggestion would “get you shafted”?
