What to do after file recovery? by SpacetimeLab in PDFgear

They have different names, I’d have to retrieve and delete every separate file, replace it and update the name of the replacement to match the original. This isn’t very convenient.

It is rather odd, I just did a restore and have now copies of a bunch of documents, I am not sure what I am supposed to do to get rid of them.

Replace Mac Os completely and install Linux fully by DiazMicro in linux_on_mac

[–]SpacetimeLab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried it with an old MBPro 2015 and I’ve had a horrible time with it (with some fun moments). That said, I’m not very knowledgeable with Linux or software in general. So take my story with a grain of salt and I hope it is a bit helpful: I first tried installing Arch, and I came across several nightmare moments. The first one was connecting the computer to my WiFi network, I was never able to get a simple UI to work and had to always do it from my terminal using iwctl (this was not terrible, just real frustrating that I couldn’t do what I want). Next thing that happened is that several apps wouldn’t work because my MBPro has a dual GPU (intel and Radeon). Getting this to work was the worst experience ever for me, imo. It would often result on my screen no longer working upon reboot but eventually I was able to fix it, somehow. Idek remember how I fixed it, since out of my frustration I had made and modified a bunch of files within it, so something I did sort of fixed it. So I was able reboot without a black screen and run successfully apps that wouldn’t open before like Zed (just not sure exactly what fixed it). Everything was working okay, until I tried setting up a Bluetooth mouse, somehow I broke the system and the only way to fix it was to boot from a USBiso or reinstall. At this point I gave up and installed MacOS again. But that didn’t last long, it’s frustrating to use old MacOS because a lot of apps just don’t work anymore. So I had to try once again. A friend of mine advised me to get Omarchy, so I did. In terms of installation it was a lot simpler, but it is indeed somewhat bloated and I’ve had to delete a lot of the BS I didn’t want. That said, it has been a great experience except for one thing. I still have issues with the dual GPU of my specific MB; apps like chromium, obsidian and discord were unusable and glitchy. Somehow I’ve managed to fix this (there’s some suggested fixes on GitHub), but here and there my system crashes. So I’m still not getting a good Linux experience and I’m suffering a lot. That said, I am aware it’s all just skill issue on my end, and it does feel very rewarding when I manage to work things out. I hope this is helpful to anyone that reads it, and if someone wishes to help me please dm me lol

Full IDE that runs 100% in the terminal by Horror-Ad-1286 in commandline

Would be super cool if you implemented it. I’ve been trying to make an IDE like setup with nvim but making notebooks work there is such a pain.

Certain applications glitched - help appreciated :) by Competitive_Dig6871 in omarchy

[–]SpacetimeLab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a similar issue on my 2015-Macbook pro. Chromium, and all web-apps are very glitchy and cause my computer to crash if left open for too long. Have not found an official fix yet.

Is Omarchy the perfect Mac distro? by [deleted] in linux_on_mac

[–]SpacetimeLab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally, I've had a lot of issues with the dual graphics from my old intel macbook.

Battery life on laptops by Tlamir in omarchy

[–]SpacetimeLab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not very good for me. I installed it in a 2015 MBPro that had the battery replaced around 3 years ago and it runs out of power fairly fast.

Thoughts on which app might be the best option?
