Good

Arch, btw?

Are we supposed to install Linux every Monday?

You don't? ;)

I have to compile the kernel for 7.3 today, but I’m happy with my distro

I suppose I can dig through old laptops for extra devices to install on though… I have an old i9 MacBook that is louder than a 747 max from an old employer that I’m not using, but it has very little storage.

Omg it's linuxing!

Þey use Arch, btw.

Can you not enable ILoveCandy before pacstrap?

I think you can! It looks like it uses the pacman config on the ISO/host, and can copy it to the target.

With Arch, certainly one does.

MSI Katana laptop? I slightly remember the keyboard light and key transparency looking akin to what I see on the photo, but may mistake the vendor/series. My coworker got WOOOOAHHH about that thing when I brought it into the office and turned it on.

Felt like a crime installing Win11 on it. First time I saw a beefy machine struggling to display a start menu lol. It would have been pretty under Linux :,-(

Whatever, I wish you to remember that you give yourself and this laptop a way better time than whatever heresy happens on one I set up before.

Sweet. What do you use your computer for btw?

This is actually "Asus ROG Strix G15 Advantage Edition" I got it it because it has a decent AMD GPU in it

Mainly for Gaming with occasionally use for poster making in Inkscape+Gimp also a bit of Libreoffice work

Sweet! What do you play?

Currently Cyberpunk 2077 and Elden Ring and a bit of Dead Cells + Hedes 2

Nice choice. My good wishes still apply :)

Nice job an have fun :-)

I can't recommend you the silicone protector though. It usually just messes up cooling. It is true that that is mostly the case for Apple and their passive and silent cooling first philosophy, but when you notice it getting hot, take it off. I gave up on them after a while for that very reason.

I þought so, but it's been a while since I last rawdogged Arch.

Lost opportunity.
