thinking of trying linux,
  • What?! Damn... That's what I get for just apt updating in the terminal and assuming it's fixed to 5.15. I've read that Mint is still behind on Wayland support though, so my switch to Ubuntu still feels justified.

  • thinking of trying linux,
  • I never had issues with Nvidia on Mint, but I recently upgraded to a 7800xt and had issues in some games. Switched to Ubuntu 23.10 with Wayland and back to no issues. I recommend Mint for all new Linux users, unless you have current gen hardware. Then you might want a newer kernel. Linux Mint is very stable and you can expect the same amount of bugs as Windows 10. Less bugs than Win11 I think.

  • Are telescoping allen/hex keys a thing?
  • I think this is a great idea! I guess strength might be the biggest issue? The metal would have to be layered really thin to fit all sizes, while being able to withstand strong rotational force. Although all the smaller sizes would fill the gap I'm not sure it would work. Making and testing this idea would be a good YouTube video, maybe send this as a suggestion to some engineering YouTubers?

  • Linux on a 2in1 for Uni
  • I use a thinkpad x1 yoga 4th gen with Ubuntu 23.10. Works great. Palm rejection has given me a couple problems, but only sometimes... I have not had time to troubleshoot yet though. I tried xournal++ first but was very unhappy, then tried the snap version of onenote which was much worse and landed on Rnote. Rnote is great!

  • I bought a Surface Pro 4 - Update
  • I just got a thinkpad x1 yoga gen 4 with a touchscreen. Installed Ubuntu 23.10 and Im loving it, works well with touch. Although I only use touch with the lenovo pen in xournal++ for taking notes in some subjects. And monument valley.

  • Norway: Equinor awards $369m oil and gas drilling contracts
  • Same... and the financially stable, well-off, part of the population gets the biggest benefit of these changes. Vote accordingly. AP seems like H in a red shirt, Im going further left and hoping for some actual change.

  • minimum requirements
  • Is piped working for anyone else? I started using it about a month ago after seeing it here and loved it, but it hasnt worked for a couple weeks now so I moved to invidious. Maybe YouTube did something?

  • elementary OS No Mouse cursor
  • Im no expert, but... Make sure your os is updated. If you have a wireless mouse try using it with the cable. Maybe download mouse drivers via terminal? Also mandatory have you tried turning your PC off and on again?

  • What is a good hobby for a depressed person?
  • Physical hobbies like sports are very good, I went to a "martial arts club" for 2 years to train boxing. They shut down the boxing part of the gym during COVID and never started back up. So naturally I started singing. I had been singing in my car to and from work for almost 2 years at the time, so when COVID hit I started singing much more. Now Im in a choir and Ive been part of 2 concerts. You always have your voice with you so its easy to just put on some music and practise. I was still quite depressed so I got a dog, even though Im allergic, and have just gotten into university to get a degree in something completely different from my previous job. I feel amazing these days.
