Why do people still recommend Thinkpads for Linux when there are Linux-oriented manufacturers now? in c/linux@lemmy.ml
[–] projectdp@lemmy.ml 12 points 1 year ago

I agree with a bunch of the comments here but wanted to add that there's a decades-long legacy of good FOSS/Linux support on Thinkpads. Before any of these companies existed, Linux was running pretty reliably on Thinkpads.

I do like the newer options with these newer manufacturers, but I won't be getting rid of my Thinkpads any time soon. I'm running a Framework now too.

Systemd-Free Immutable Distro Nitrux 2.9.1 Is Out Powered by Linux Kernel 6.4 in c/linux@lemmy.ml

How does the immutability come into play with Nitrux vs, say NixOS?

Can I easily have an encrypted home in WSL? in c/linux@lemmy.ml
[–] projectdp@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I've read that systemd-homed can do encrypted home directories but I haven't tried it, much less on WSL but that may get you to achieve the encrypted home directory at least.

Personally I don't think I would have a need to encrypt all of WSL, but maybe that also makes sense for your case.

I only get 82% :( How much do you get? in c/privacy@lemmy.ml

Testing at 100% w/Firefox + ABP + AdGuard home DNSBL and upstream DNS blocking. Need to get uMatrix back on here.

What is your unbiased opinion on Manjaro? in c/linux@lemmy.ml
[–] projectdp@lemmy.ml 12 points 1 year ago

I've used Arch, Manjaro, and Endeavour. For ease of use it's between Manjaro and Endeavour and I'd pick Endeavour. Arch is great too. When you're ready to go deeper, give it a shot.
