I got a Framework 13 a couple months ago - it’s been awesome so far. I’m happy to support their business model & repairability - it’s super awesome.
Sucks for you guys south of the 49th parallel who have to deal with (pay) all these ludicrous tariffs!
It was around Sept 2023: https://futurism.com/elon-musk-moved-twitter-servers-himself
You can also just search: “Elon Musk Twitter server move” and the terms “Sacramento” or “Pocket Knife” might help.
Plasma is great for the flexibility (shortcuts), and so easy these days.
I was searching for task switcher, expose, etc. And just completely gapped on searching ‘overview’. (Web searches didn’t show it either, possibly because it’s too simple, so nobody posts about it.)
Next up I might have to play some window tiling (e.g. like i3, sway & hyprland).
Amazing - Thanks for that!
I just switched from GNOME to Plasma in the past week, after a long time on gnome, and Plasma 6 is great. The only thing I miss so far is viewing all my windows on the desktop when I push the meta key - alt-tab seems clunky in comparison.
Any suggestions there?
We’ve done this with Home Assistant (on a raspberry pi), and Zwave / ZigBee. Its been working great for years. Also allows for really customizable alerts for different things - and has been super stable.
Not very difficult to setup either - the interface is pretty polished these days!
I’ve had a pretty good experience with OpenSUSE Tumbleweed, with a pretty similar use case / criteria.
I’ve done my share of tinkering, and while I learned a lot, and enjoyed Gentoo, Arch, Debian, NixOS, and others (Mandrake, Ubuntu), I sometimes I just want get my work done…
With Tumbleweed, there are a few packages that you’d need to install for codecs, but that’s easily done via the CLI zypper package manager with a single command.
I’d definitely recommend checking it out - its been a solid daily driver for almost 3-years now with very few issues, and lets me focus on getting stuff done. I wonder if this is due to their QA build process (OBS)?
Anyway, good luck & have fun whatever you choose!
Even if this was an economically sound proposal, the next X45 magnitude solar flare might be a nasty surprise for reliability metrics…
Edit: at some point, this would also likely contribute to Kessler Syndrome, but at least we’d have chat bots.
