Update.

I adore VLC.

I’ve been using Linux Mint for almost a year and a half now: would recommend it to anyone ready to make a jump into Linux and away from Windows. It’s quite friendly.

I’m also quite enjoying Sonarr to keep track of some older television shows that I enjoy.

I enjoy that Mr. Torvalds is referred to as an “emperor penguin.”

That is all.

Litigation in 3… 2… 1…

I like it! Feels like cabin-chic.

Oof.

Sadly, no. Just got the regular lips, Mr. Blott!

I noticed you switched from having vertical side monitors to horizontal.

I did switch! I used the vertical monitor for Slack and other notification/messaging tools (and for my tasks tracker tools and Kanban boards)… and when I added the above-mounted monitor, I noticed I was shifting the same windows upwards rather than to the vertically mounted screens I was using.

So I’m testing it out and enjoying the switch. However, I might switch back at one point as I do a lot of documents in my daily workflow, and the vertical monitors help with the editing process.

Oh dear. It… was an older laptop, and through the pandemic it became clear that I needed a substantial upgrade. You’re quite right that the laptop wasn’t able to keep up! 😂

Thanks, Jet! That… makes me feel a smidgen better about it. 😅

The Pixel buds also charge on the stand right?

Yes.

Or is it just so you can charge both phone and the buds at the same time?

Exactly!

I have banned my cell from my bedroom, so each night I place my phone and my earbuds in one spot on the desk. Also, I leave my phone docked on the Pixel Stand during the day and work hours, which lets it double as a bit of a digital display and control for music/podcasts.

Oh, man.

It’d be March 2020 for me.

See below for picture.

If you’d like to see my setup journey, I shared my path on Mastodon.

Below was March 2020:

I read this article a couple of years ago about the subject. Apparently, one part was ease and rapidity of rolling updates with the likes of Arch, and another part of wanting a bit more experimental nature of Arch versus steady-as-she-goes and stable Debian. It’s a rather neat discussion and debate.

Echoing the need to create and seed (posting some example posts) for communities. On my end, the wiki resources of subreddits were some of my favourite content items, so new communities working on recreating shared pages and resources is right at the top of the list of things that excite me about Lemmy communities. ♥️

If the mods of /r/AMA wanted to help out, how would you integrate them with this community’s team?

Any health tips?

No sick days is pretty impressive.

Archive.org, one of my favourite websites, has been targetted by litigation.

What do you feel will happen to this website in the years and decades ahead? And what will happen to digital archiving should the site be eliminated from the web?

Ah! I’m on Mastodon.world!

EDIT: You also asked for why. Well, I wrote a blog post about it, actually…
