Only you know why...

At that point you might as well turn it off.

I just looked up pine forest wallpapers and set the size to large/wallpaper.

Everyone should. It's wasted energy, bad for components and outright lazy in some cases.

I need to know the story as to naming your cat Microwave

But some apps don't function properly if not installed. So I think that chocolatey is better.

I find that winget tends to just grab M$ Store packages, essentially becoming just an alternative CLI frontend.

Chocolatey, however, actually grabs the native program. And it isn't developed by Microsoft.

Even Scoop is good enough, however programs might not work perfectly because it uses portable versions of the program.

Choco > winget imo

Wayland is necessary because Wayland will be necessary in the near future, if it was next year then that would put a lot of people who don't know about X.Org and Wayland through a major shift which could rock-the-boat a bit too much and cause them to go back to Windows for the "just works" experience.

 

I'm quite interested in putting coreboot onto my laptop, if that's possible. But first I want to know if it's reliable as I'll be using this laptop for school, and if I can even do it in the first place.

I have an Acer Aspire A515-47, AMD Ryzen 5 5625U. I don't know any detailed information about the motherboard, nor northbridge or southbridge. I did try to find them but I couldn't find anything online. I mention these as they were mentioned on the coreboot docs.

Also from the docs, I'll be doing the internal method as my laptop already, obviously, runs Linux (Fedora Silverblue).

Konsole with neofetch on the left, Dolphin on the right and Elisa just below Konsole

I've always quite liked how Polybar / Waybar look with WMs but I've never been bothered to fiddle with all the config files that come with that. I want to spend more time using my desktop than making it look nice. So I initially tried GNOME but found the panel CSS too confusing. I tried KDE Plasma after hearing that panels were quite powerful if you use them right, and I believe I did. The colour scheme was originally going to be Gruvbox but the global theme I used gave off a more everforest vibe so I embraced it, I'm quite glad I did because I think this looks amazing...

~~I know I know, I just like how cursive fonts look in terminals, I use them for programming too. This one is Victor Mono~~
