I need to play with Arch again... in a vm so I can't break anything
I need to play with Arch again... in a vm so I can't break anything
RI deleted my Facebook account 5 years ago. Didn't use social media since then. But I installed Mastodon iOS app and logged back in to it recently.
RI have countable occurrence of Arch being broken during these 14/15 years.
RAnd I fixed that using ArchISO on USB drive.
Rchroot-ing into my harddrive system.
RI appreciate the idea of immutable system. Which we have cheap and large SSD now.
WIt's quite fun fixing a system but yeah... sometimes I actually want to just game. This is where Bazzite is nice
AI was skeptical about atomic until I tried it
WYeah I just tried Bazzite on a whim lol
RAnd I wish I could make my company to use Linux for work using NixOS. And every engineer could just checkout the dot file from companies' repository, and run the dot file to get dev environment ready.
AI used ChimeraOS for a while on my PC handhelds, and it was a nice taste of atomic/immutable distros.
Then I tried Bazzite, which was atomic on steroids haha.

Aand now most of my devices are Bazzite
RWhat devices do you have? Would you mind mentioning?
WI've been playing with https://github.com/devcontainers then at least each project has a consistent dev environment
GitHub
Official organization for the Development Containers Specification and dev container resources. - devcontainers
ALegion Go, GPD Win 4, GPD Win Max 2, Minisforum V3, HTPC w/ 5600x 6700XT
Apreviously had an Ayaneo Air Pro and Steam Deck LCD, which I sold
RCool stuff
RGood amount of lightweight devices.
5I do the same thing. There must have been times I've gone months without updating arch, but it keeps working. I've had more issues updating Ubuntu
Atoo many, lol. I'll be selling some soon, I don't need them all.
5Yeah you could replace all of them with a win mini
RHow good is it playing games on Miniforums?
Athe V3? it has a 165Hz VRR display w/ 8840u, pretty nice so far.
Ahe has one i think
Awin mini? nah, decided against it
Athough I did want one
Khey I have this in rpm-ostree status
SecAdvisories: 1 unknown severity, 1 low, 4 moderate
can I ignore this an reboot to the new image?

5Did the minisforum fill the void?
WI'm usually fine with the normal Ubuntu upgrades but jumping to a new release.... um yeah, reinstall is better. Where as Bazzite 39 to 40 upgrade had some issues but you could rollback and now 40 is fine
Arather than "fill the void", it was one vs the other. decided I shouldn't get both
5I meant the void that exists in the hearts of men that we try to fill
Aok, I ported around 85% of the bazzite packages to the treefile format by fedora
Astarted building
RYeah, exactly. We fill this void by spending money and spend time on tinkering it.
Alets see how big the monstrocity gets in the end
5Freaking trying use their upgraded to go the next version and it took forever to crash. I had to look up the command to run it from the terminal. At least with arch it's always sudo pacman -Syu
AI've been waiting for a surface pro alternative with AMD + Linux for a very long time now
ALGO was close, but V3 is basically the more perfect version
A2483 packages it thicc boy
5Same. And I got aboard the starlabs star lite 5 train
Awell it crashed, hm
Ano AMD though?
5And I've been riding it for 10 months
Avaporware
5I really like the idea of it just having an Intel N200
5Its like 40% faster than my current laptop that gets one hour of battery
5The price was decent
5I'm going to give until August
AIf you want an alternative. Lenovo X12 detachable is a solid Surface Pro + Intel alternative. You can find refurb for decent prices, intel i5 11th gen, works mostly ootb with Linux
WI had it on a server a few months back upgrading LTS versions. Fortunately it was just a matter of redeploying docker and up and running again
Athe X12 detachable is what I previously had before this V3
