you can get real keys by putting the t420 ones on the t430

eternity is amazing and works really well, I’ve had no issues so far

it works on my kde neon by default

they’re too micro soft to acknowledge that bash is better than cmd

I don’t think debian is good for first time users because:

• the downloads page 🗿
• sudo isn’t setup out of the box
• most guides refer to ubuntu 20.04/22.04

tbh I like mint, but for people that want to learn linux I think ubuntu is better.

There’s more people using it, so you get better support, and there’s other flavpurs available so things like kde and xfce are supported well right out the box

I don’t recommend wsl because it bodges the worst part of windows (windows terminal) onto linux. Also, it’s much nicer to learn in a vm where you are learning actual linux, instead of MS’ interpretation of linux.

It’s like playing with clay in a bag, versus playing with clay with your bare hands.

turn the pc off, plug the USB in, turn the pc on.

if that doesn’t work, look up how to enter your specific laptop’s BIOS settings. There, you should find the boot order menu to switch to booting from that usb.

you need to download the mint iso first:)

wuhan seems to be good at spreading things though

(is this joke too soon?)

Snap is cringe, KDE neon > Kubuntu 200%.

Seriously though, I love kde neon so much. KDE being rolling release is a bit confusing at first, but you basically get the best of both worlds in terms of rolling and LTS releases.

I see, yeah $120 is a great price. I would buy that in a heartbeat as well

why a 7700k? I think something like a 12100f has better performance and much lower power draw, meaning much less cost in the long run. It’s cheap as well.

I would judge someone for using Uwuntu or hannah montana linux though

I enjoy finding them, just don’t like knowing they are there without knowing where they are
