totally of topic... as a previous Arch user, I switched to POP-OS with my new laptop, simply because it worked out of box with everything, and I struggled to even make a proper SMB connection to windows network with ARch... not to mention automatical USB stick mounting etc... However, as someone who would like to get back to Arch because gnome uses so much power, and I am missing the simplicity of Arch, is there some good tutorial to make it a decent distro right after installation including the sound, nvidia graphic, network settings, display (with external usbc connected display) etc...


which wm are you using?


what is this good for?


I guess none of these suggestions really work without the last one "Move to Brazil and live in the rainforest" :)


Even that didn't work for John McAfee


McAfee would likely still be around if he hadn't made such a blatant point of publicly thumbing his nose at the US Tax authorities. While it's possible that he was already under investigation and just decided to make a spectacle of it, one thing you do NOT want to do is piss off the bureaucrats. They'll then have literally nothing better to do than track you down, and the largest network in the world to do it, and that network has insane inertia - once they're hunting for you, it just keeps going, they don't get bored.


To be fair he never lived in a rain forest. He was always around people and often managed to upset many of them.


yeah but bath salts did.


thats the issue, I dont want to work something I don't like anymore, not even for money, since there is plenty of positions opened in any of the stack.


dude, I had to google this :D


Well, I just mentioned what was used for a web, yet we had tons of tools working on internet and intranet, as well as background workers...


Agreed on Wayland future. Just out of the curiosity, which hardware you choose for your linux daily macine?


They did not build YouTube by their knowledge, they acquired competition company. They had Google videos back at that time.


Pretty much all innovation large companies do is through acquisition. It’s much faster and risk-free than doing it yourself, from scratch.


They came up with Google Glass and Google Wave by themselves :)


Same here, I have it literally everywhere, TV, mobile, laptop at home, at work... Thumbs-up guys
