I won’t buy a laptop without it. My earlier Dell Precision had it, but under warranty they ended up replacing it for a slightly “better” model, because the damage from the swollen battery was too hard to repair. I hate the new one.

And this newer laptop (Precision 5550) keeps losing screws and it has stray clicks from the chassis flexing when you try to pick it up. Miss the old one. Think it was a 5540.

Microsoft has pushed OEM’s to stop supporting S3 in bios, instead wanting hybrid sleep. Microsoft wants this because hybrid sleep allows waking for sending telemetry to Microsoft all the dang time, like cell phones do. I curse the day they did this.
I ran Manjaro Linux as my daily driver a few years ago but slowly phased it out for Windows for some reason, and I’m finally back using Linux (currently Linux Mint). I gotta say, I don’t know why I ever switched back to Windows. There’s just so much freedom Linux gives you right off the bat that Windows is just plain...
The desire to learn something beyond DOS, beyond just BBS’, beyond RIME and FIDOnet email, wanting a UNIX like operating system that was like what I had at university, to be able to natively run talk, ytalk, IRC, ICB, Gopher, FTP, and NNTP.

Laptop with long runtime
I’m looking to buy a new laptop. I recently switched to Linux (Fedora) and would like to stay with it (Not necessarily Fedora though)....

Is the Windows Subsystem for Linux worth it?
I’ve had a pretty poor experience with it myself, so I wanna see what the Linux community thinks about this.

People have been cleaning their ears with cotton swabs for years. What other tools are being inadvertently used wrong?
what caused you to get into Linux?
What caused you to get into it, are you an evangel and are you obsessed?
What makes you not want to use Linux anymore and maybe move back to Windows, MacOS, or TempleOS?
