I don't know if this fits your use case (you didn't describe what you want to achieve in detail), but commands that can possible help if the screen did lock (or turn off):
loginctl unlock-screenkscreen-doctor --dpms onHaha, zypper up is a nice one, didn't know that.
Pacman gets huge bonus points though for having a config option to turn to progress bar shown during package installation into a 'pacman' (letter c) chomping from left to right :)
(done by adding ILoveCandy under the Misc options in /etc/pacman.conf)
You find Zypper a better name than Pacman?
I'm using a second hand Surface 6 Pro (bought for €300 or so incl. keyboard cover), now running Arch (with linux-surface kernel) with KDE.
Everything works great! :) Doubles as a handy little vacation laptop too, and makes me want a touchscreen on my next laptop!
Please feel free to ask ahead if you have any questions about experiences or whatnot.
Whether Siri actually stops listening or only stops responding remains an open question.
Out of pure curiosity, can I ask: what does this setup bring you? On top of a 2x27" setup or a 34"/38"/42"/etc ultrawide, for example?
Seconding this. MPD + ncmpcpp + an MPRIS plugin. With the latter I can control the music playback through global keyboard shortcuts and the system tray UI if necessary.
This is absolute gold. Thanks for sharing
Since you mention 'gaming' first, I'd say go for the X3D. Overclocking Zen3+ CPUs is hardly worth the effort anyway, you'll hit the point of diminishing returns real fast and hit thermal limits. Undervolting might give you better results though.
This is the best comment here.
So would you say that is unjust, seeing the massive effects and repercussions of this on society as a whole? As a father of a young girl I'm very happy to see more attention on this by news media.
Haha, totally, especially combined with the sounds of its evenly paced steps. I can see myself shuddering at that sound while hiding from them, crawling behind destroyed cars and other debris through dark and grey streets in a dystopian future...
