I got some new keebs and also played around of “musical keycaps” with the boards that I have put together. Here is the family pic sans my board at work.
I moved my set from my southpaw (gray set) to my work board (split), my work board (midnight set) to my kiddos board (tkl), and my kiddos board (transparent) to my southpaw.
I added kitty themed accents to my preonic and finished the banana theme on the wife’s board.
The Nebula is finally together. I think my frustration earlier was a culmination of many things. And the only thing visible was my failure in front of me.
The case is together. It was a skill issue for some reason. The directions and how my noggin interrupts things, just didn't mesh. And that really shouldn't have mattered. After a break from it, the assembly from where I left off was intuitive.
I am compiling a Gentoo upgrade before migrating, and I can't hear the fans at all. Night and day
I didn't have a way to boot into Gentoo with this new hardware upgrade. So the only other option is :popos:. I am chrooted in my Gentoo install. After this upgrade and grub mkconfig, it should work again. I am not used to this at all. These be quiet fans are much quieter than my other Noctuas. But I also think the case design is helping with it being quiet compared to my Corsair 7000D Airflow. That case is just massive and the AIO was overkill. Just added noise with the case fans.
IDK if this is just bad luck, but I always seem to find that :popos: is slower with internet traffic. I have noted that when installing games compared to Gentoo. And today, I can't seem to get past 3 mbps for just normal net surfing.
To me it makes no sense. I have used the same versions of the software on my desktop, so same hardware too. With my laptop today, my laptop just feels unusable.
My laptop right now is peaking at 3.1 mb/s while I should be seeing around 20+ish. My phone isn't slow. My desktop still isn't powered up. I need to plug in all the case wires to the mobo and power it on still... I have just been using my laptop after my desktop's RAM committed sudoku. First there was case frustrations, then find out the mobo didn't have printed schematics, the qr link wasn't working either.
Anecdotally, :popos: seems slow internet wise for me regardless of hardware.
Also, why would motherboard manufacturers not provide a printout of the PCB?! To save paper? Don't print all those brand loyalist ads then and print out a schematic of the PCB. Or at least give me a working link to you CURRENT model...

That latest update to openSUSE killed gaming. IDK what's going on, but Steam won't launch any games and neither will bottles. So something to do with wine? IDK. Bummer.
:popos: crashed in the middle of my Gentoo installation several nights ago. I haven't really had the time to see if I could fix it. So last night, I just installed Pop and wrote over all that work. I just want a working laptop.
Seems to work fine out of the gate this time. Aside from GDM not respecting my UI settings. Everything is still at 200% at start.
@withoutclass I saw everyone post about their profile 23 upgrade on reddit and here. It had me a little hesitant on finishing up my Gentoo install on my laptop. I want to see it on my desktop first. Maybe make that a binhost too.
@withoutclass my preferred profile. Last year I decided I wanted a stupid spicy build... Hardened, LLVM, musl, openrc... That lasted a week. I was in too deep.

My wifi seems very spotty on Venom. I know my home wifi has been a little rough lately, but I just magically lose connection with no indication that I have. I probably need to change a few things config wise with their default shell in order to see
@JLW_the_Jobber
-Rolling release
-Libre (freedom to do basically anything*)
-High customization ceiling (can come precomfigured)
-Active development
-A way to support them monetarily
-Either a massive repo or a way to install almost anything using the package manager
*Anything including but not limited to: init system change, user space, compilation flags, etc
The more I play around with the #Gnome DE the more I like it. Granted I probably would not be able to say that if they removed extensions; Vanilla Gnome DE is too tedious to use for me.
I do not see it replacing #Cinnamon anytime soon, but it has been pretty fun to play around with (which I cannot say for quite a few DEs).
