Acer has had this policy for over 20 years. I bought a laptop long ago from a vendor that I had issues with and they refused to give me support because I was running Linux at the time. (I forget what distro. Probably either Mandrake or early Ubuntu.) That laptop went right back to the vendor.
Never bought anything from them since.
I have a Corsair Nightsword.
There’s an open source version of the software that, I don’t think, is official but works well. It can rebind, set RGB, change DPI settings, and most if not everything the official software can.
Corsair mice aren’t the best, and the problems seem to be certain versions of their mice. (M65 is garbage. I went through 6 of them in 6 months.) Nightsword has been great though. Scimitar is good as well, have one that’s 6 years old now.
Well, I got rid of KDE and I’m on Cinnamon right now, so where are these tearing issues? You think I would have noticed after over a year of use.
Why would I care what software KDE comes with? This is Linux. I can install whatever works best for me. Including the whole of KDE software suite if I so chose. You KDE fans are voracious.
better multi monitor support
I run a 3x1 setup and KDE didn’t handle it any better than Cinnamon did.
Wayland support is coming to Mint. You can actually use it on 21.3 right now but it is unstable.
Rest of what you said is opinion.
As someone who daily drives Mint, wut.
Oh, it’s got other issues than that, but the crackling is the most unnerving.
Some of the audio from my Jellyfin media player (flatpak) just hasn’t been playing. So I check Helvum and sometimes it just doesn’t even patch it over. I got the deb of JMP installed and that seems to have made it behave, but the maintainer of JMP hasn’t made that easy with all sorts of weird patches and junk.
My only issue with pulse audio was that I had to open Pulse effects each time I restarted my computer because it wouldn’t auto load the settings.
I thought it was when I switched over to pipewire, but no. I’ve got severe audio crackling problems now and I want to go back to pulse for all it’s faults.
If you mean copy/pasting the bar to the new screen/placement, I’m not sure. I’ve never gotten it to do anything other than create a new empty bar. When you look through the applets though it shows which ones you are already using and what they do so you can just click the + when you’re editing you new bar to add the thing you know you’ll want there.
Also, try out Cinnamenu, it’s better than stock start menu imo.
Yep, then right click it and click applets and add what you need them move the applets to where you want.

Right click bar > ‘Add a new panel’
Cinnamon works very well for this. I can put bars all over the place on any monitor.
People who don’t have cents?
giggle
For 20+ years now, yes.
What the other person said. This is a prototype and looks to be printed with thicker layers than normal (.2mm is the usual.) to save time.
I use it so I always have access to my media. It’s all setup when I leave I can still connect to it and continue to watch shows/movies/albums.
Funny I run across this after me and my kid had a long conversation about GLaDOS being an inspiration for The Absolute Solver from Murder Drones. (I say she is.)
