  • EDIT: Poor troubleshooting on my part. I missed the part in the dmesg about missing the firmware. I installed the firmware through AUR and everything works as it should. I need to be better than this …

    Don’t beat yourself up over that. Sometimes the missing firmware isn’t an easy one to spot, I’ve been there in the past with Arch and more recently with Debian 12. You’ll be ready for the next time!




















  • If you have the choice, I encourage you to choose to avoid these companies. But for those of us struggling to make ends meet, we’re stuck having to give business to companies that not only help create people like me, but depend on our need for them. Please remember that when there are calls that everyone has to stop using them.

    Principle comes at a price not everybody can afford.

    And this is the way they get big and grab their market share because they can afford to undercut the more ethical competition. When that competition ceases to trade, then they’ll bump up their prices. This is capitalism (at least, as I understand it.)
