Silverblue doesnt either… I think you’re right, it’s an immutable distro thing.

I’ve tried to use scribus, but the interface is pretty clunky and it doesnt react well to high-dpi screens in my experience.

I’m curious about what you think is missing from Inkscape. I use it and illustrator for design work all the time, and I’ve never run into issues with something missing from Inkscape.

Yeah, the headline writer. The actual information (and indeed the entire article) doesn’t say anything about breaking a covenant, its just that Canonical is changing how they treat updates.

It looks like the photographer sadly passed away two years ago, so checking if he’d be OK with that would be challenging. Most OS’s let you cycle among a set of background images if you want, I dont think you’d need to write a script.

It’s not commercial use, so I think it’s reasonable to download the photos and use them as backgrounds as a memorial to his work.

Open board is unmaintained, heliboard is the fork, and has added some great features IMO.

Do you really think you could build a tower without tensile reinforcement? The hoop stress on the base of a cylindrical tower is no joke, especially when made from something as dense as concrete…

No, I forget where exactly it was, but at some point last year I was deep in Rakuten’s documentation and it referenced that the Clara HD’s OS is based on a modified Android 8 kernel.

That’s true, but I get easily more than that on my current kobo, which has a similar advertised battery life. I can get easily 5-6 days of reading 8h a day on it.

All kobos use a custom OS built on Android…8 (lol). Its not recognizable as Android, but it is the base.

It’s a nightly build, I don’t really see that as an issue. The stable build is available in every format I can imagine.

Oh it should be roughly equivalent. But really, what besides a slab can you build without worrying about tension?

I can only assume they’re trying to talk about concrete 3D printing, but oh boy is that not ready for anything which needs strength.

I mean anything but the atomic distros will dual boot just fine. GRUB is GRUB. I have the most experience with Debian-based distros, but they all dual-boot just fine.

Looks like it from the readme!

They’re ways to search on a specific site from the engine’s search bar. For instance, !gsch cows will search for cows on google scholar from DuckDuckGo. I don’t know how stamdardized bangs are across engines, but they’re super useful if you use a bunch of obscure search tools on the day to day.

Yeah I can explicitly not recommend modern HP or Toshiba laptops for reliability reasons. I’ve had serious hardware and structural issues with both. Also, in general 2-in-1s will break at the hinge in less time than other laptops. Lenovo 2-in-1s specifically have known issues with the hinge which can shatter the screen. If you want durability, go for a more traditional form factor with no touchscreen.

Edit: oops thought you said 2-in-1

You’re going to get a million answers, mostly people saying to use which distro they’re currently using. In my experience, KDE works just fine on any distro that allows you to install it out of the box, so I would choose based on other attributes of the distro, such as:

• Package manager: which are you used to?
• Update cycle: KDE 6 is out soon, so you want something which updates often enough to get it fairly quickly (at least semiannual).
• Stability: unless you want to have to manually maintain your system and learn how it works, avoid arch and arch-based distros. I have run it, its fine, but it’s not “normie”, and unless you really know what you’re doing, daily driving it can be stressful. Manjaro has the same issues, but takes away some ability of the user to fix them.

For instance, I personally like Debian and apt, but I would not recommend base Debian right now, since KDE 6 is about to come out and Debian will take a loooong time to get it. I have not personally used Kubuntu, but if it gets rid of any the bloat canonical has been adding to Ubuntu lately, it sounds pretty good to me.

This is my exact situation! It’s not just uncomfortably small, either – it’s flat out unusable. I think its a hiDPI issue, but from the forum posts it sounds like its been an issue for 5-6 years. I even tried changing the QT startup settings, but no luck.

Ive used those, they all seem to be pretty similar in hardware and work fine. Might be out of the range of scaling things to a “normal” size with built in OS scaling settings, but still usable. I was expecting the color to be terrible, but in my experience it’s fine.
