Just a cat wandering about Tamriel.
You might be using the AUR and don’t even know it. The Chaotic AUR repository might be enabled and i think it is enabled by default on garuda.
The chaotic aur is a bunch of pre compiled versions of apps from the AUR. It doesn’t have all the AUR packages but it has a bunch.
You can check by looking for [] in your /etc/pacman.conf file.
grep "\[chaotic-aur]" /etc/pacman.conf
If enabled pacman will handle those packages without the need for an aur helper like yay.
Had to open the pic and rotate to landscape to see that this was not fata morgana.
Petty pics. Looks like a nice hike!
I can see the benefit of matching style when working with others. I only code for myself and never had to worry about conformity for project consistency.
It is good to learn new things.
I’m sure I have some coding habitats that would annoy others.
That’s good to know. Don’t know how I didn’t know this. Been writing JS since 2000. Always just used them I guess. Ecmascripts look funny to me without them
Was looking at it and could not figure out why their weren’t any semicolon’s.
nvtop : visualize nvidia GPU usage and memory
top : monitor/manage processes although ps aux | grep appName is still my goto.
pyenv : easily install and use any python version
ipython : a customizable python interpreter. I have figured out many poorly documented modules using ipython and great for exploring modules.
Import psutil as ps
ps.#then hit tab
after hitting tab will show all attributes related to your imported module, use arrow keys to select methods == profit!
nethogs : monitor network connections by app.
firejail : app sandboxing
Good to know that the info I gave was correct. Thanks for the confirmation!
You can use brasso to burn ISO’s of the games.
Steam used to have a game backup function. Not sure if its there anymore or if it would even work without steam.

Glad I could help!
Developer Options -> Network then add all the entries in the Size column. Is that what your looking for?
Running arch as well and have it installed. Works just fine with linux-g14 kernel and headers. I use the zen kernel mostly so i don’t have the armory settings most of the time because I use zen but everything else works.
Just did a pacman -Q | grep linux and my linux-g14 is on 6.15.2 and zen is on 6.15.3.
Did you add the keys?
Might be worth checking out, not positive it supports your laptop but if it does it might give you control over some bells and whistles like fan curves and lighting.
Arch isnt that hard to use, just more maintenance, you have to update often and you can break things easier. It is defiantly harder to install. Thats why I recommend Garuda as it has a nice gui installer. It comes fully riced too. KDE dragonized is what i went with. The non gaming edition.
You will have to maintain your new system with fresh updates very regularly. You will have to get used to going through .pacnew files. Luckily there are easy ways to do this using meld to view pacnew files side by side with their corresponding config file that helps you migrate data easily.
Being an arch based distro your on the bleeding edge of linux and this means sometimes you will get cut! But an update will come along fairly quickly to heal those wounds. For instance the screen rotation broke a few months back. Easy fix in udev config though.
Debian based distros are pretty bullet proof, takes a but more to fuck one up. You’ll have to wait a lot longer for the things arch users get every day.
Personally i don’t find garuda to be that hard to maintain but Im used to arch already so I know what to expect and more of how to fix things. One of the best things about garuda is it uses brtfs by default and sets up snapper for you so when things go wrong you have an easier time fixing things.
You can always try it out and if it’s not for you you can move on to the next distro. And hop until you find what your looking for.
Best of luck!
So I installed Fedora on my surface. It was a huge pain in the ass. Then I went the with easy arch install of Garuda and everything has been pretty painless. I’m not really suggesting you follow suit as arch distros do require a bit of maintenance others don’t. But you can research garuda and see if it’s a fit for your needs and see if the maintenance is worth it. One benefit of the arch install is almost everything worked right out of the box. Didn’t even need a usb heyboard for installation. Full disk encryption was easy to use because the keyboard just works. That wasn’t the case in fedora, i has installed with full disk encryption and would have to pull out the USB keyboard every boot just to unlock and boot then I could plug the surface keyboard back in to use. Just a heads up if you are wanting to use full disk encryption. You can also set up the encryption to unlock via USB and while not that hard to setup that might be more work than you want to be doing.
Whatever distro you pick you should install the linux-surface kernel and drivers for the stylus. They can be found here, along with specific instructions.
Aperture Science. We do what we must, because we can. For the good of all of us. Except the ones who are dead.
Loved my Amega so much. Spent hours drawing in Brilliance.
Hands down the most advanced and secure smartphone os is grapheneOS.
It only runs on pixel devices. App sandboxing, buffer overflow protection, separate users, optional sandboxed google play if you need it for banking apps, automatic reboot after a set time to re encrypt your filesystem, assigning permissions for app access to folders and the list goes on and on.
Hay CDP, I’ve noticed you haven’t been around lately and thought I’d check in. Want to make sure your alright!
Hope your doing well.
