Some Microsoft surface models can run surface-linux pretty well

tips fedora

X gon give it to ya

Oi! D’you 'ave a loicense to choke that chicken?!

After then everytime i tried to open windows it would send me back to the gnu grub screen

Sounds like it did you a favor

Yep, at least that’s how I understood it. They are able to change the thermal conductivity of specific parts of the chip which then allows more heat to be redirected into those specific areas than what they experience in conventional chips.

The actual processor cores generally are the largest heat source, where as auxiliary components are relatively cooler. This technology theoretically will heat those cooler areas by transferring heat away from the cores, which in turn cools the cores down.

The current research was done at the transistor level though, which means there is a significant amount of time and work required before complete chips will actually be able to implement this cooling method.

It’s saying that an electrical field that is generated activates the thermal conductivity of that molecular layer. By controlling the electrical field, thermal conduction can be controlled. This allows certain parts of the chips to have higher thermal conductivity than normal. Which then allows the heat to be redirected to parts of the chip that usually stay cool in conventional processors.

Wow, with those mainboard discounts that is a surprisingly cheap option!

It was a panel that mimics a dock. I can’t remember if it was the existing task bar with modified settings or another panel that can be chosen. However, it’s so customizable that I got it to mimic the macOS dock almost perfectly without downloading anything else IIRC.

I don’t think I installed any extensions to get a dock on kde, unless debian came with the extension preinstalled

!peepee !< is safe

A $900 laptop that

• has days of battery life and an ARM processor
• Ran x86 apps with near-native speeds *Still beat all of its competitors in benchmarks back in 2021 when I got it
• Did all of this without a fan
• is extremely compact and lightweight, fitting in every bag I have
• well made with a good keyboard, trackpad, and screen
• Will last me for years

Do me a favor, look at what 13" laptops were for sale in late 2021. Find any of them that competed on price and performance. The M1 MacBook air was one of the best received apple laptops, specifically because it was unbeatable at that price.

The only negative was it only running macOS, but Apple allowed 3rd party firmware to be installed. Now mine uses coreboot to boot into fedora 39. The only thing that doesn’t work is deep sleep and the speakers, with good progress being made by the development team.

There’s plenty of criticism for Apple and their obscene pricing, but the one laptop purchase I never regretted was this one.

Best of both worlds with Linux on my M1 air

Hey distro, I’m dad

Does Debian testing/sid automatically update to the latest drivers through apt upgrade?

Edit: actually after reading the other comments, I don’t think I want this “update”

Cool, thanks for the info!

How is the battery life and suspend?
