As a youth interested in ham, I couldn’t agree more. It’s been surprisingly difficult to find stuff for beginners who know pretty much nothing. Even having studied for the ham exam, there’s still a huge gap between that and the generally available information.
I’ve also been using Plasma on Wayland with Nvidia with very little problems for at least a couple years
I somehow enabled the Vulkan renderer for Plasma at some point, and it caused this problem. Disabling it fixed this.
Posted it there too.

Yeah I thought this thing was pretty decent, way better than originally, but then I got to use a Prusa MK4 at school…
I don’t think the CPU in my computer has changed in a while
Yup you’re indeed seeing an EMT8 :D. This thing’s got a SKR mini e3 V3, E3D v6 clone and an E3D titan clone. I have a post about it in my profile.
I bet there are dozens of us EMT8 owners! Dozens!
An old HP laptop with Debian hosting Klipper and Home Assistant. Waiting for an OTG cable so I could replace the laptop with a phone for less power and heat
For CPUs it’s pretty bad. It says the Intel i3-9100f (4 core, 4 thread 3.6GHz) is just as good as the AMD Ryzen 7 3700x (8 core, 16 thread 3.6GHz) even though the actual difference is massive.
I study in a technical university in the west. Apart from my own laptop, I’ve only spotted one Linux computer, which was an IT student’s laptop. Though I don’t study IT myself
They just did. What are you gonna do about it?
Alsa is the very base of the Linux audio system. Pipewire and pulseaudio run on top of it. Back before pulseaudio it was directly used by software
Sir, it’s 2024, not 2006.
Pipewire is a more modern replacement for pulseaudio.
UEFI has supported ARM for years now…
Ventoy with every ISO I’ve needed to install, and Snappy Driver Installer Origin with its full set of drivers.
Lutris with wine-ge has made some things work for me that didn’t work with plain wine. So definitely worth it to try.
--no-preserve-root is only required if you try to remove /. For /* I don’t think it’s needed.
I also got a VM, it gets used for exactly 2 pieces of software, ElvisMX and Multisim
