Personally I would say start with Arch and if you like it use endeavorOS. Endeavor is just easy install for arch(and the only one I’ve tried that actually achieved it well) so if you already know the inner workings it saves a lot of tedious install work and has some nice QOL defaults already set like yay colorized
Can’t go wrong with just booting the live environment and seeing if it works. Just check your display is the right resolution and your speakers and brightness work before installing. I also recommend checking it’s actually running off of the 1050ti too
Sorry for the unclear-ness in my post! I’m currently using JavaScript in school working on databases and websites so my brain kinda just went to JSON as a way to track the players inventory. I was thinking of having the inventory start as an empty JSON object and have items added to it as the player collects thing, adding the benefit of being able to dump itself to a file for saves. While also being able to display itself in different menus: menu “health items” would just loop over the items with the class “health” and display them. I made this post wondering what types of ways is common for people to store/track inventory info
Also t480 - i5-8350u CPU.
My process was to update firmware with fwupd -> change TLP to performance(depending on desktop environment you may have a battery life settings panel) -> reboot into bios and change power settings to performance.
Ran a benchmark and my CPU was running at full power when it was limiting itself to 2Ghz before.
Did you change your bios settings to performance? I had the same problem but changing both bios and power management to performance finnaly let my CPU boost to advertised speeds
Lenovo has official support for Ubuntu on all laptops which translates very well to other distros. IMO the Thinkbook gen 6 having fully upgradable ram and decent specs is a really good deal for a Linux laptop *when on sale
Thought I settled down with EndeavourOS… then I got into ricing and the urge to move to void or alpine is strong
Now you’ve got the idea of making a game around filling out open street map info. I’ll add it too the list of “cool programs I don’t have nearly enough time to make” 😔
Cloud Stream lets you get from sources like super stream or dopebox or even aniyomi plugins. I don’t have the money for fast VPN connection so it’s more convenient for me
I wanted to use stremio but since it’s torrent based it needs a VPN to use no? Last I checked the regular streaming site addon for stremio no longer exists and cloud stream works well enough to not put in the effort to switch
T480($145) + dual heat pipes upgrade($30) and it’s amazing. I never hear the fan unless I’m compiling something! Hoping one day a mx150 motherboard will be $150ish so I can play my favorite older games in bed
Have you taken a look at the pinetab? Its probably the most Dev oriented Linux tablet. Librem-11 might be the only Linux native x86 tabket but if you don’t mind flashing a new OS a refurbished/used microsoft surface would be cheap and powerful. (Need the linux-surface kernal for all functionality)
