I fact I learned some time ago - To get most stable linux expirience you don’t need “just avoid nvidia and that and that”, I got older laptop with AMD and it still has issues, ones that I don’t have on pretty new Intel+Nvidia gaming laptop

So, you basically need to either buy specifiacally PC parts tested for linux and models of laptops that are time-tested by linux fans (aka mostly thinkpads), or buy specifically stuff that is made to support linux well, basically FrameWork laptops and simmilar product, or like, Tuxedo.

The problem is, first option is usually used market, at least when it comes to laptops, and is underpowered, and second option is only available to US or Europe users and it will still be VERY costly in comparison to usual laptops and PC’s of the same hardware category and also it’s all out of stock most of the time.

Manga (manhua) of the day:

I’m Really Not the Demon God’s Lackey

Status - Ongoing

A completely normal (the eyes are watching you) bookstore where lives a completely normal bookstore owner (the books contain knowledge so forbidden you would go insane) that uses his knowledge on psychology (and eldritch terrors) to help people who came here (you may go insane from books he gives but you will sure receive a nice power-up and a very vague advices)

Kinda getting Max Frey books vibes from it, but with more gore and horror in it + ignorant MC that illustrates that by talking with just enough vague phrases you can look like a smart person (or eldritch god). Not a fan of gore, but story is interesting enough to read all available chapters in one day.

Lets just agree that fediverse:

- Has a lot of federation-related UX issues and limitations, even if some are basically unsolvable
- Doesn’t have but probably NEEDS proper migration optionally including posts, because not all of people like that they lose posts on migration while servers are coming and going constantly. And at least, losing followers should be minimized and indicated somehow.
- Not an ideal free speech place and not completely anonymous (and I am glad it is not)
- A place where people defederate and block each other if they feel like it. I still think that guilt by association is a bad practice, fediblock lists are unreliable and enforce bad practice above, and contacting other instance before blocking is a nice thing to do as a way of avoiding unrequired blocks due to misunderstanding and unnecessary drama. Other people have their own opinion though

First impressions of BlendOS:

- Freaking Discord as main place of development + almost no documentation to be found elsewhere
- Okay, it kinda works and all of advertised features (except for being easy to “remix”) are there
- It is just immutable Arch + waydroid and distrobox with fancy Electron gui and some additions to make it work slightly better
- Absolutely not “Painless”, installed application icons are not there (maybe bug related to immutablity, it is still beta), everything needs to be set up more manually than it is on a beginner friendly OS, especially if you are setting it on any other language that is not English.
- Still, it seems to hold good middle ground between power user stuff and user friendlyness, I may consider using it myself once it is out of beta with issues fixed, but my initial plans on possible forking it for my distro are not really viable since I’m doing another type of OS in terms of UX

Maybe I should try blendOS beta to then possibly use it as base for my distro (which is still a distro tailored for university and I have not decided if I should go into immutable territory or just stop at my super cool™ idea with tmpfs home directory...)

IDK, it seems a lot easier than to build my own immutable distro, and advertised out of box android app compatibility is a really nice bonus... But knowing linux all of that features cannot possibly work that well in practice, and I can set up something like waydroid myself...
