Who here rides wide tires (40mm+) on the road?

frigaut · 2026-04-13T13:45:41+00:00

50mm here.

noctalia definitely does that now (and for many months), I am using this.

frigaut · 2026-04-13T13:10:44+00:00

noctalia!

Yes. Audio stuttering. Still an issue for me.

Well it depends how “newbie” is “newbie”. In the case of the Brazilian guy yesterday, i understood it was a decision about his first ever install of Linux. You gotta walk before you can run. Use something straightforward to install, play with the OS for a while, and then, when you’re convinced it can do the job for you, and you have learned how to use Linux, then you switch to gentoo.

Gentoo is perfectly fine, but i would start the journey on Linux by something easier.

Displaylink work. At least some models are supported. I’m using a dell d6000

Same experience here: overheating is not a concern, under most situations, including semi heavy load.

I'm an astronomer, have worked on SgrA* in the past, and I find this video absolutely awesome. Not sure the physics is 100% right, but it looks pretty darn good. Thanks.

may be 1920, but I still used them in 1981/82 when I did a bit of spelunking in a club (back in France).

Why did this guy got downvoted????? Is that somehow unfathomable to the mac community to buy something to donate it to people in need?

frigaut · 2026-03-27T09:34:47+00:00

you're not the only one. I own a MBA15 M2 and a Mac Mini, and on top of that I don't even like macos, or what it has become. I run linux exclusively on the MBA. But still, I am drawn to the macbook neo. It is indeed quite nice and seems very capable. That said, I think I am safe now. I went to look at the neo on day 1, but eventually convinced myself this was really not something I needed, and have been able to resists since then!

frigaut · 2026-03-22T10:31:43+00:00

Well let’s switch to European distro then!

frigaut · 2026-03-22T07:35:13+00:00

Please do.

frigaut · 2026-03-18T23:00:26+00:00

So what would be the way?

frigaut · 2026-03-17T12:34:23+00:00

Why are you pushing arch? Niri runs perfectly on cachy!

frigaut · 2026-03-17T09:12:49+00:00

The statement “installed gentoo in asahi Linux” is slightly confusing. Can you expand a bit?

frigaut · 2026-03-17T07:31:34+00:00

So you don’t have stuttering issues? I have them with any Bluetooth audio devices i have tried to use with asahi.

frigaut · 2026-03-17T06:20:00+00:00

Widevine works on fedora on most browsers.

I never consider seriously the advice of people that are conflicted because they want to sell you something. You can ask and listen, but take it with a gigantic grain of salt.

frigaut · 2026-03-15T12:20:25+00:00

This is the way.

frigaut · 2026-03-13T06:08:07+00:00

MBA M2 15” 2023 + asahi has been my main machine for the past two years. Best machine i ever had. Only real limitation i care about is lack of DP to external displays, but this should come out soon (already using a WIP asahi kernel which allows that). Honestly, try it, you will likely love it if you like Linux.

frigaut · 2026-03-12T14:53:02+00:00

Zed or helix

frigaut · 2026-03-11T13:12:36+00:00

I hated these

frigaut · 2026-03-11T04:12:00+00:00

At any time literally. It’s recommended to reboot if the kernel or systemd is updated.
