    I can confidently say that I used Ubuntu (different versions even) many years ago on work computers and the Frankenstein monster it became and it breaking when updating was a real problem. I’ll never do it again. Arch has it’s problems but less worries managing it and updating.

    The lts trap + old kernel version + plus their horrible custom patching of it + needing other ppas for some hardware to work on top of that of custom patched kernel to support whatever specific thing the laptop needed that was available on more recent kernel version + the need for some apps/tools with recent versions… Hell, all of it.













  • Yeah, I have another one that has a stupid nvidia card that crashes when trying to hibernate sometimes. But that’s nvidia fault, it was not something I would buy, was also forced upon me by another work place. At least it’s consistent since many times it just crashes on boot up too and needs to be forced reboot up to 10 times sometimes.

    Nvidia should burn in hell.

    sleep and hibernate work fine on linux. I remember the olden days like 15 years ago where nothing of it worked. contrary to the stupid macos that was forced onto me which sleep means nothing and just keeps draining my bluetooth headphones battery anyway instead of turning off when I tell it to.
