isn’t this just a fundamental issue with input resolution? ofc you get better resolution when zoomed in because you have more screen space

Sounds stressful asf, you should try take a break and relax (e.g. turn off all computers in the house for a few days). The rushed decisions you make now might not be the best

In terms of suggestions, I’d recommend:

• Isolating untrustworthy network devices (e.g. web3 shit and your roommate’s pc) in VLANs
• Running untrustworthy code in containers or vms
• Getting a proper router (openwrt one maybe?) and managing it yourself, don’t let your roommate touch it
• Setting up firewalls on your pc (restrict ports to the ones you actually need)

This would involve learning more about networking, Wikipedia and the arch wiki has pretty good information on it.

debian’s cdn is crazy fast, the default apt setup in debian 13 chooses mirrors dynamically and it’s really good

I would personally buy a new ssd for Linux, and keep the original windows drive somewhere else for safe keeping. That’s what I did when I migrated

However, you can transfer the entire ssd content including files, partitions, boot stuff to another disk (e.g. your hdd) as long as that hdd is bigger than or the same size as your ssd. have a look at clonezilla for this. You can then read this hard drive’s contents from the new Linux install to copy over files you want.

have you actually tried it? trying mint after using arch for a year (btw), it’s actually really well made and the consistency is crazy good. The UI looks and feels better in person than in screenshots

woah woah woah win11 doesn’t look good at all what are you talking about 👀

anyway for theming you should look into kvantum, it lets you customise qt application themes with SVGs.

that’s mainly because of Wayland’s security model I think, it’s trading a tiny bit of convenience for lots more security in terms of things like preventing easy keylogging.

You can still do keylogging in wayland but that has to be done at the compositor or evdev layer, which requires root access or control of the DE, which makes it more secure. I’m sure you could write something in C to do this though

It might be an annoyance for you and I get that, but your small annoyance improves security for lots more people than you realise. I’m sure you can adapt to not using the script though (I also use multiple layouts and I work fine without a script like this)

probably not, I move SSDs between computers all the time and linux always just works

very different story for windows installations though 🤮

one of the best things about a phone based server is that it consumes basically no power at all

does blender have vr support?

who even uses arrow keys these days?

oh that’s cool, how do you do home row modifiers like that?

do you use that for normal typing as well or is it just for symbols?

bro how do you comfortably use $, ^ and 0 for navigation??

!! helix mentioned !!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ICC_profile

Profiles describe the color attributes of a particular device or viewing requirement by defining a mapping between the device source or target color space and a profile connection space (PCS).

I think you should be able to do whatever, seems like it’s just a lookup table

your display is plugged into the gpu? then it should just work

it’s kinda funny though

Wikipedia says cpp

very neat

software is always better when there’s a face behind it

very excited to see it!
