Re:Using the same Arch Linux installation for a decade on Wednesday August 17, 2022 @04:40AM (#32493847)
totally of topic... as a previous Arch user, I switched to POP-OS with my new laptop, simply because it worked out of box with everything, and I struggled to even make a proper SMB connection to windows network with ARch... not to mention automatical USB stick mounting etc... However, as someone who would like to get back to Arch because gnome uses so much power, and I am missing the simplicity of Arch, is there some good tutorial to make it a decent distro right after installation including the sound, nvidia graphic, network settings, display (with external usbc connected display) etc...

I guess none of these suggestions really work without the last one "Move to Brazil and live in the rainforest" :)
thats the issue, I dont want to work something I don't like anymore, not even for money, since there is plenty of positions opened in any of the stack.
dude, I had to google this :D
Well, I just mentioned what was used for a web, yet we had tons of tools working on internet and intranet, as well as background workers...

Ask HN: What tech stack would you use for your next small/middle project?

getting out from the big company where we used MS tech stack for years, with some modules using .NET MVC and the others are using even older asp.net webforms... The API was written in SOAP :)... I want some restart and looking forward for kind advices, since what I see out there its all about backend API (nodejs, or whatever stack) + frontend with React/Next, Angular or Vue... ? thanks

Agreed on Wayland future. Just out of the curiosity, which hardware you choose for your linux daily macine?
They did not build YouTube by their knowledge, they acquired competition company. They had Google videos back at that time.

Did not read the article, but the main issue with cryptocurrencies I see is that everyone is buying them so they can sell it later when the price goes up.

I tried to dm you, but you disabled dm on twitter. Somehow we have almost same path, running an agency at the moment with 9 ppl :-)

If you invest some time building your own linux environment, e.g. Xfce or openbox, or kde.. You will probably found that once it completely works the way you customize it, it will work until You break it. I've seen testimonials of guys using rolling releases of Linux or, some debian based distro that runs for years without any issue. No scam installed alongside your OS. Well... I use arch btw.
Re:Show HN: A simple way to make HTML websites on Sunday November 22, 2020 @04:23AM (#25176134)
Wow, this came out of nowhere for me
The only reason I am still using windows is MS office. I might give it a try myself... My home machine is running Arch linux and works flawlessly for more then two years already. Just my work is still stucked with a lot of documentations sharing between some other people and I need MS office programs which have no alternative in open-source word. well, the office.com looks promising these days and I hope to switch completely ASAP.

great idea
Yes I can mix up my own password encryption on some cloud service.. I need sites I came across at work machine to quickly reopen when at home office.

Ask HN: Are you syncing the browsers history and passwords accross devices?

I'm old-fashioned, I don't trust people or companies :) but syncing between devices would save me a lot of time, no matter if it's passwords or pages I've visited. Should I separate important and irrelevant passwords? How safe is it? Also, which browser do you use for this purpose, if you use one.

Thanks for the tip, will probably try to rewrite the idea myself.

touch screen works as well?
Re:Ask HN: Ultrabook with linux on Tuesday April 15, 2014 @02:42AM (#7590622)
its extremely expensive. Usually small laptop is not your main computer, so I guess you don't want to spend fortune on it.
Re:Ask HN: Ultrabook with linux on Tuesday April 15, 2014 @02:41AM (#7590616)
x240 and t440 are way too expensive here in Europe. They cost like 3 year old used car :-).

But is it good with linux, does it recognizes touch screen normally?

Re:Ask HN: Ultrabook with linux on Tuesday April 15, 2014 @02:38AM (#7590605)
did not get it, is the sound gone finally?
Re:Ask HN: Ultrabook with linux on Monday April 14, 2014 @12:56PM (#7587315)
thats so sad... thanks for feedback, this is really disappointing. Which thinkpad you have in mind, is there some with my requirements list and normal price which would support linux?!

Does it stops the noise if you turn off keyboard lid?!

Re:Ask HN: Ultrabook with linux on Monday April 14, 2014 @12:24PM (#7587077)
thanks mate, so far I am in between xps 13 and xps 12... I really like how they look and feel, even the price is not advantage though :)
