I appreciate the context and explanation.
It was my understanding that btrfs is still new-ish and has some kinks to work out. Ext4 is pretty well understood at this point.
Wow. Yeah, that’s shady and shitty as hell. The cost was always enough to keep me away from them, but knowing they’re a shit company will make me sure to warn others off as well.
Do you have any links for the bad marks on Purism?

I use Fedora on a gen 7 Carbon X1 thinkpad and the small amount I use the touch screen has worked fine.
It’s a 2015 Retina 27”.
I’m fine rocking Ethernet for the purposes of this experiment.
Master/slave systems are probably a-ok for them though.
Oh wow, I hadn’t ever noticed that when poking around in the BIOS, I’ll have to find that setting, and cross my fingers I didn’t buy a cursed model laptop.
My bet is that it’s to preserve battery life. Driving hi-res screens takes power.
Goddammit, I didn’t need a reason to upgrade my laptop (I have a carbon X1 running Fedora and the failure to suspend drives me bonkers).
Oh, I’m buying the hardware from a friend, this will be my gaming rig. Good point though, plenty of people don’t want to spend time tweaking configurations at all.
Cool, thank you! I was thinking about Arch so it’s good to know it generally works well for running games in proton.
Thanks! I’m not big on online games so I don’t think anti-cheat tools will be a big deal.
If your processor/MB has onboard video, it would probably be easier to pull the gpu and test. If you still suspect power management, pulling other components like additional HDDs after adding the gpu back would confirm it.
I was talking about what copyright should be.
Other than liking the nice round number of 20 years, that’s exactly my take. Copyright longevity creates perverse incentives for rights holders, and it locks down the ability of other creators to use common cultural references.
Depends on a number of factors. A ton of companies have moved to web based tools for a big chunk of their workforce. If those web apps are more or less standards-compliant you could pull it off with minimal retraining.
