Why no arch install?
Why no arch install?
Also, the few points others are talking about needing others, there’s a group-finder and I’d say most people running those raids in group finder groups don’t talk at all, so you can just pretend they’re NPCs if you want.
Tons of remote jobs out there, probably a higher percentage for startup jobs. Most remote places will have people in different time zones and some sort of core hours they expect people to be in, but having some discussion you’ll probably be able to find one that’s accommodating.
One good site to start looking:
Good luck
And what about Dr Pepper Brisket?
Seems like arch gets KDE into stable within a couple days of release generally. Or there’s the kde-unstable repo that already has it
Synology nas are nice. I will say there’s definitely a nice UI there and they generally work well. But there is a good bit of lock-in and there are some really reasonable roll-your-own hardware and software options these days.
If you want something that just works, doesn’t need to be super configurable and is easiest to set up and manage, get a synology. If you don’t mind putting in some work or if you need to really tweak some stuff, roll your own

Most steam games just work. Make sure to go to settings and compatibility and let it use compatibility for all games. Look at something like bottles for a front-end to let you set up and use wine / proton for other launchers, etc….
Battle.net running in bottles works Ok. I did have an issue with battle.net running under X for a while, switching to Wayland worked. Whatever the problem was seems to have been fixed
Asahi only partially supports the M3 and I guess now the M4 is out (though only in iPad)?
Btrfs will be fine, I use btrfs on a standard arch install, timeshift for managing snapshots, works well.
Fwiw they’re able to do the same thing by the sound of someone typing a password across the room. Not advocating for fingerprints or anything, just these exotic hacks are everywhere
Agreed, the meta+arrow shortcuts to move windows around are great. That defaults to half/quarter windows. You can also define a custom layout (meta+t to configure). The meta+arrow shortcuts still work on half/quarters of the screen, but you can shift+drag a window to drop it into one of the custom layout tiles/areas… gives a lot of flexibility.
Step 1: move data from files into a database
Step 2: delete files
Step 3: press release that we just deleted the files
Google, probably
Real answer, learn how to paste several code snippets from stack overflow into a ChatGPT window and ask it to do what you need. Sprinkle in some copilot to tweak as needed. Congrats, Mr Programmer.
Just a note, the orange pi drivers are not in great shape. It’s getting better but I have a cluster of raspberry pi’s for development, bought an orange pi without first checking out much about them and it’s rough. Rockchip CPUs are great, and the driver / firmware situation is getting better, but something I’d read up on before buying one.
I’d still look at the N100, it’s about 2.5x the performance of raspberry pi 5, and being x86 you have more options than arm.
There are a lot of tiny PCs these days that can output 4k video and audio. Look for something with an N100 or N200 CPU if you want to go as cheap as possible, they tend to be super-cheap and perform well. I’ve got one of the GMTecs and this wireless keyboard+mouse, works really well from the couch.
There are cheaper/other options but to get you started: https://www.amazon.com/GMKtec-Windows-Computer-Business-G3-dp-B0CQ4XQ2WG/dp/B0CQ4XQ2WG https://morefine.com/collections/pc-box (specifically the M9)
I’m far from an expert in init systems, but there are some benefits to declarative approaches for configuration. It’s one of the main reasons yaml and toml are as popular as they are. The short version is, declarative configuration tends to be less verbose, and the declarative contract defines what state you want things to be in, not how to get there which makes it easier on the person writing the unit file, and on the implementers of systemd in that there’s a smaller surface-area to test
Generally declarative:
50% according to this article. They mention 80% in 1860.
I’m not 100% sure of the source there but I have heard similar numbers around 50%. Think of all the self-employed people doing jobs that just don’t exist today in the US - delivering milk, fruit, fish, newspapers, door-to-door salesmen, and that’s on top of jobs that still exist today with a lot of self-employed people like AC repair, plumbing, etc…
