Heliboard has halmak too

Voyager

Secondhand macbook pro with the M2 chip and as much memory / hdd available ; it is said to avoid 8g of ram, I went with 16.

Slap Asahi on it, the latest version plays games quite nicely - and since Asahi is dual-boot anyway, you can try the macos side if something fails.

(Currently Asahi doesn’t support m3 or m4 chips. M2 machines should be available at bargain prices, mine new was €1500)

Ubuntu Studio is an excellent choice to get you started busy doing your things. It’s a work of love, from passionate people, going at it for many years now.

The only drawback is that the bundle is overstuffed, for my use case there’s just too much stuff in there lol (sound eng)

Enjoy yourself, test your creativity against the available tools, and make stuff. That’s the important part: making!

The ethical pirate would rip them and make them available as torrents. Out of 500, there’s probably a lot that is unfindable.

Start with your favorites, go as far as you (and your bandwidth) can.

Yeah, tho I’m doing the opposite : Asahi on a macbook pro. Works great while indeed hurting conviction.

So a 12.5 screen, 12Ah battery, 2kg laptop with only USB A ports available in 6 months for a starting price of 1550€ - Please excuse the slight irregularity in my eyebrow line here.

My Debian is the best for my work laptop
My Arch is the best for my private laptop
My Asahi is the best so that I don’t have to deal with f*cling macos crap

Just cosmetic : wobbly windows & spinning cube

Shows my age I guess

MagicQ

Arch Linux on Dell 7389 : just works. Also had OpenSUSE Tumbleweed on this machine, best installer ever.

Debian on Thinkpad X390 Yoga : with included variable-pressure pen, the touchscreen is actually a wacom tablet, perfect. Also, one if the best installer there is.

Ubuntu on Thinkpad T480s : just works. Installing Ubuntu today is literally just a couple of clicks. Wife hasn’t complained in 3 years, this distro must be doing it right.

(Everything Gnome here, no additional setup whatsoever. The KDE gang will argue that Plasma has a lot of goodies for touchscreens, be sure to check it out)

And redhat. But only in Europe.

Currently in France No OS is -€60 and with Fedora or Ubuntu it’s -€30

Don’t ask. Different markets, pricing irrelevant to actual costs

Hm. I use it for anything, looping stuff, streams, entire album play, playlists, even audio books before I found maBooks

My only current bug is that I used to have my music on an SD card, which failed & I removed, but VLC still thinks it’s right there and fills my library with it

VLC is the goat here, no?

It’s a memorial.

It is important to remember it, to engrave it in stone, for future generations not to forget, before it disappears for ever.

In all the conversation, the one thing I didn’t read about was how good it is to have a laid-back, “nonthreatening” logo. People talk about history, brand, happenstance whatever but not on the positive aspects of having a cartoonish emblem that doesn’t scream “I’m serious” or “I’m valid”.

You are right and I am wrong ; I guess I jumped too fast after the gulf of america thing.
