oflag=sync also works instead of && sync. Might as well drop a status=progress in there too

It works fine with Firefox funnily enough

Did the same thing, though I’m handling the tabs with Sway

If you don’t have to use it but want to keep it functional, why just not reinstall MX again? You know that and how it works

Would like to see how much the background work is impacted over time. Seems like a scheduling issue to me

or the pump has failed

Wow, that’s bad UX, every other OS lets you change it for individual devices or types of devices

yoo that article is from 2002

Do you use Btrfs? With that you could extend the Fedora partition even though the free space is not where it should be

laptops are sold at the same price with similar components, so no

Clicking delete while pressing shift should do the same thing in most file managers, just use it with caution

I’d say it’s essential on a SMR drive

I use jdupes for that

I hate that this is the default answer to these questions, most tools by which less tech savy have detrmined that something is using a lot of ram are accounting for buffers and don’t subtract it from the free space. Every time when I clicked on someones post (well on Reddit, here its the first one) regarding their ram usage being high and this website was posted, it was not the buffer/cache. So while it is obviosly important to get to know how OP determined that something was using a lot of ram, directly assuming that they read it wrong is imo simply not helpful and in most cases just more confusing

My experiences with a 4700U/5500U and 5600G has also been great on just Fedora

300€ HP 255 G8 works very well, the physical buttons below the pad feel like they’ll fall apart with every press as they are only hinged somewhere in the middle

I had a 10Gbps USB Icy Box enclosure, speeds were ok but cooling was simply inadequate. Now I have just built a pc with an Asus B550-Plus and a 5600G, idles at 19W with the drives in standby but with three fans active. I thought about going with a mini pc and a better external enclosure, but that would’ve been much more expensive and I doubt that I would’ve saved that much power with that anyway

There is no 3800G afaik

For that the laptop has to support a charge level on a hardware level though, just setting a limit will cause it to constantly switch between using the battery and charging the battery which would be much worse than keeping it at 100%. Most older and budget systems don’t support that

Using the laptops battery isn’t a good long term solution though as having it plugged in all the time will wear it down fast, not to mention that the battery is build for maximum energy density and not durability/safety. It just simply not working when it is finally needed is almost a pretty light issue when it can just also inflate and pose a huge fire risk next to all of your data. Laptops are great power efficient platforms though for servers
