This is getting a bit out of the scope of HN but... here goes nothing. Firstly, Jews =/= Israel! I have never been to Israel and do not plan on ever going. Nor do I support their actions/government. Secondly, the United States and

I recently purchased a LTO-5 drive for my Gentoo-based NAS and have a few key takeaways for those who are interested. Don't buy a HP tape drive if you want to use LTFS on Linux! HPE Library & Tape Tools is prety much dead on modern

Jew here, Being Jewish != supporting Israel. I have never been to Israel, I do not identify as Israeli, nor do I support Israel. I fully support a free and independent Palestinian state and believe Israel is commiting genocide. Only 30% of

I'm really happy! The 8GB model is super snappy with Arch+Sway. Battery life with full brightness is ~4-5 hours. If I'm overloading it maaaaybe 3.5 hours, but that rarely happens. It's so small that I'll throw a battery

I have the 8gb model running Arch Linux with sway wm. Instead of the default keyboard I have a split ergonomic mechanical keyboard. A bit unconventional, but it's my favorite dev machine! Helps me keep my shoulders and neck happy.
