This is one reason I love Pathfinder 2e’s degrees of success.

Wait, how??

HD650 rocks. Getting close to having to replace the pads again but the hardware is rock solid and sounds great.

How would you get the Eyes of Ender?

Edit: never mind, I read your post properly this time.

Literally laughed out loud. Love how wholesome this one is!

Glad to hear that. I downgraded for the same reason so it will be nice not to have to pin old driver versions in future if it works.

It’s its own kind of sexy.

Beryl was a fork of Compiz, and then was merged back later on. The desktop cube was basically Compiz’ first big show off feature, along with the wobbly windows.

Why doesn’t my keyboard have a thumbs-up key?!

Try accidentally emerge world on a full desktop environment with open office and said browser on a Pentium 2 after changing some base level compile flags… Oh, and I was on dial-up. Didn’t do that again.

I got Gentoo on a DVD with instructions in a magazine for a Stage 1 build. No internet connection at that stage so I had to work through problems myself. Took a few goes but I learnt a heck of a lot about how Linux boots.

Been a very long time so apologies if I got some details wrong.

Took me a few goes here and there but now I love my minimal tiling setup. Never really got it but just played with them here and there out of curiosity. Last time I tried it something clicked for me and now I’ve no desire to go back.

Could you try it on Wayland? It would likely use xwayland anyway but maybe it gets the geometry reported differently and scales differently? Or even try the Valve compositor to rescale things? Thinking it loud as I’ve not tried them at all for something like this but maybe worth looking into.

Some environments use super+rmb to do that. If yours doesn’t, maybe see if it can be set as an option.

The first distro I feel in love with was Debian (potato I think). Before that I had dabbled here and there but never had something click. Played with Gentoo when it first landed (try a stage one Gentoo build without the internet to go to for answers to really learn it!) and after getting tired of compiling all the time tried this new Ubuntu thing. Stayed with that for years until snaps and decided to try Manjaro to learn about this Arch thing. Got sick of the problems and but the bullet and went “pure” Arch. Feel in love again like I did way back with Debian.

Now I use Debian on important servers and Arch on servers I can afford to play with and my day to day machine.

Never looked back. Debian for stability, Arch for everything else. Never been happier.
