Non-standard keyboard layouts. Custom kernels. Nah, I tried to rock a Chromebook but it sucks. What I really want is for arm or riscV to grow the fuck up and make an open pc platform. x86 wasn’t meant to be open from the beginning, but market forces and other reasons forced it open. We need the same thing for other architectures.
I want an arm laptop for work. I almost always use web apps or SSH or RDP. I don’t need or want a lot of power in my laptop, but fanless and big battery life sounds great.
AMD. Maybe Qualcomm in the near future. AMD Ryzen chips are pretty damn good.
Can I join the club, I use 9front
I love seasonic PSU. They are the among the best IMO and all my personal machines use them.

Personally, I would pick something from this list. Then you can use piper to manage your mouse settings, and it will be an awesome experience.
I have a Logitech G305 with a custom shell and modded switches that I love, for something close you can look at pmm.gg custom mice.
Game is great, my first playthrough was pretty close to when it came out, I played on Linux with keyboard and mouse and had zero issues. Second was on switch, with controller and it was fine. It might be more enjoyable with a controller tbh.
If anyone believes anything Nadella says they are already drunk on the Kool aid
I have to use SQL at work enough that I just use that for any database I need for personal projects, almost always MariahDB. Helps me stay current on my skills I guess.
Totally understandable, it has a lot going on and if you already know reaper it might be good to stick with it. Good luck!
Bitwig comes with so much that I can’t remember if they have drum samples or just machines or both. I highly recommend you try the free trial to see if you like it before you buy.
If you don’t mind paying for it, Bitwig is probably the best that officially supports Linux. There are also ways to run windows VSTs in wine on Linux. I’m no pro, but I love Bitwig, it has boatloads of cool stuff. Reaper also supports Linux. Ubuntu is fine IMO, I think there is a spin that’s specific to audio workloads that might be nice for a beginner. I use Arch at home but I use Ubuntu for work, it’s pretty nice these days.
I am also an IT nerd that hikes as much as I can, when the weather permits. Too many of my local trails have decent reception so I have to just forget my phone exists for a while.
Latest release was 9 years ago, not exactly what I’m looking for. 9front is probably closer to what I want than inferno.
I mean, you’re right but I still want to see a modernized plan 9, I just think it would be neat.
This is news to me! I’m honestly just paroting others with the no CLI support, I never did the homework. Shame on me I guess!
This is why I don’t love snaps, proprietary backend. I think snaps actually work great for the most part, and flatpaks don’t support cli apps, only GUI.
I think we should just resurrect Plan 9 instead.
Check out Withings. Not open, but they are pretty good on respecting privacy and check the boxes you want. withings doesn’t do the full screen app stuff, but it’s a good watch with all the smart features.
