It's the same with leftists in my experience. The fighting is worst online

Had this issue for ages. Ditched Nvidia a month ago and now everything just works.

Lemmy predicts: Chromebooks will become the new Thinkpads in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 month ago

I have been repurposing my EOL Chromebook, and I don't think they will ever be able to compete with ThinkPads. I like my Chromebook since it is so damn small, however the specs are really bad. And everything is soldered right on the motherboard. So I have 64GB storage (plus an SD-card) and 4GB RAM. I have enabled ZRAM so the CPU is helping out a bit. But even so I struggle with the memory. Browsers are such memory hogs!

Yeah, I noticed. I miss not having a declarative system, but agree on Nix. I don't have the time to learn all that. I think it seemed neat to use yaml, since it is pretty straight forward

That sounds like BlendOS. I haven't tried either of them, but sounds really cool!

Great! But I'd much rather they kept focusing on fixing the game

Did you also try to search for the meaning of NEET?

Help choosing distro for old EOL Chromebook (lemmy.world)

I have an Acer Chromebook R11 which has reached End of Life and won't receive updates (which is insane, I bought it new four years ago). I have checked, and my model is now fully supported by most Linux distros.

I need suggestions for a lightweight distro to use. I will use the machine for surfing, playing Pixel Dungeon, streaming some indie games over Moonlight/Steam Headless and manage my home server over ssh. So nothing major. I want something lightweight and really low maintenance.

Specs:

  • Processor: 1.6GHz quad-core Intel Celeron N3150 (quad-core, 3MB cache, up to 2.08GHz with Turbo Boost)

  • Graphics: Integrated Intel HD Graphics

  • Memory: 4GB DDR3L

  • Storage: 32GB (with SD card reader for more storage)

I have a lot of experience with Arch-based (EndeavourOS, Manjaro), Ubuntu-based (Mint, PopOS) and Debian-based (Debian, Ubuntu, Mint, Raspbian) distros, but I am open for other suggestions
