I use an RSS feed for news, and I’m sure I’m not the only one here on the Fediverse who appreciates the convenience it offers, because it helps me stay informed in a way that suits my preferences.

How do you keep up with the important topics that matter to you?

I’d love to hear your thoughts!

Just bought a #DELL 3190 laptop, new for $150 (11.6" screen, 64GB eMMC). It's fully supported on #Linux, and even if it has a Celeron N4120 CPU and only 4 GB of RAM, it'll work fine with #Mint, or #XFCE (and #Gnome/ #KDE if you don't mind some minor lag). Not opening too many browser tabs will ensure that the swap file won't get used too often.

If you're on a tight budget this is a good option, as it also has great battery life too at 10 hours with Linux.

Po tom co ml. syn „odhodil” PC, které mu padalo s W10 a neutáhlo mu náročnější hry a PC bylo tak nahrazeno Hall3000 jsem se ho ujal já. Škoda by ho byla, PC's z Bohemia Computers nebyly (nejsou) vůbec špatné. Z větší části byla na vině totiž hromada „smetí” v systému.

Už nepadá, systém i apps jdou plynule. Pročpak? Wokna jsem nahradil #linuxmint Vera 21.1 s prostředím XFCE = správná volba 👍

#linux

#Linux on the #desktop is becoming more #popular in my home town, but for the wrong reasons.

It's #poverty: many people have no money for a new #laptop or desktop. Their old #computers still work fine, but can't run the latest versions of #Windows.

We backup their data, install #LinuxMint, restore their data, install some extra programs, show them around and they're good to go.

Interestingly no one had problems making the switch so far. All quiet on the support front.
