Climate crisis with Poison Ivy
  • Basically. Batman being broke without a regular job is the Punisher minus the guns.

    The wealth part does read differently in 2024 after 44 years of Reaganomics and screening for psychopathic tendencies when looking for CEO candidates.

  • What laptop do you use/recommend?
  • To run Linux, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD, or some other FOSS OS?

    I’m running Fedora on a refurbished Thinkpad P1 Gen 4, and I’ve had good luck running Linux and the BSDs on higher end refurbished Dell Optiplex, Latitude, and Precision equipment.

    Apple hardware is nice, and MacPorts gives me access to the vast majority of my *nix tools.

    Shopping for new hardware I’d look at the list below to get Linux preinstalled.

    • Thinkpad X1 Carbon
    • Slimbook
    • System76
    • Tuxedo Computers
    • Juno Computers
    • Starlabs Systems

    Or buy refurbed equipment from Dell or Lenovo.

  • RH doesn’t allow sharing of the spec files which generate the RHEL rpm packages. The program’s code is still under whatever license it is licensed under.

    Besides all the RHEL code is public and upstream in CentOS, which makes more sense anyway.

  • There are better options then Canonical.

    OpenSUSE is backed by SUSE, and Fedora is backed by Red Hat. SUSE and Red Hat are both for-profit companies, and both are better FOSS citizens.

    USB-C Dock Reccomendations

    Does anyone have USB-C dock recommends?

    I have a Thinkpad P1 gen 4 running Fedora I’m going to be using as my desktop replacement, and I’m looking for a Linux friendly dock.

    I don’t need the dock to do much. Ideally, it could drive 2x 4K DisplayPort displays, have a 2.5Gb+ Ethernet port, and a couple USB-A ports, but 2x 2K DisplayPort and 1GbE work too.

    Preferred price is <$150.
