#fedifrens — Public Fediverse posts

This morning the fedi feels like wandering through a rewind of last night’s dark, quietly chatty party, eavesdropping on the conversations, nodding, laughing a little, moving on to get another cup of tea, because it is morning. It’s very nice. Big mastodonian hugs to everyone! #fedifrens #fediverse 🩷

hi again lovely #FediFrens 👋

yesterday’s #rec didn’t get me any answers on that combo so I’ll open it up to a couple of other options…

so – is anyone +running #Linux* happily [1] on a 14” [2] laptop with a GPU from #MSI, #ASUS #ROG or #TUF, (or others)?

requirements (somewhat flexible:

– light, pref. ~1.5kg +/-
– 14” max. unless it’s super-light with good battery (so a thin 1.5kg 15.6” or even 17” with 12 hour battery (🦄) would be fine 🤪)
– 64GB DDR5 RAM or more (more is better, DDR5 preferred but I’m flexible on that)
– good battery life, where “good” is >4 hours but longer life is better
– decent GPU, but it doesn’t have to be bleeding edge (a 40xx or even 30xx or equivalent would be fine)

bonus points for:

– switching between onboard & discrete GPU works acceptably
– sleep & suspend work (consistently)

 
I’ve added a RIDICULOUSLY HUGE (completely optional, obvs.) poll, pls reply with a different answer if you use something you think might fot my requirements 🙏 🙃
 
pls #boost4reach ✨💕✨ 🙏
 
 
edit: added the RAM requirement that I left out of v1 🤦‍♀️

edit 2: so apparently if you edit a toot you poll just… goes away 🤦‍♀️😡🤬 I’ll recreate it in a bit 😩😮‍💨
 
 
#ASUSROG
#ASUSTUF
 
 
 
 1 or, more realistically, grumpily-but-acceptably 😜
 2 or smaller, I guess

hi #FediFrens 👋 I’m looking for feedback from anyone who’s successfully (or not) running Linux on an #MSI #Stealth 14 AI (🙄) Studio #A1V pls 👀

assume that I’m good at internet research and please only reply if you have personal experience running this combo (or to tag in someone that you know is running it)

if everyone else could #boost4reach that’d be fab, thank you! ✨💕✨

OK all my #electronics / #PCB fab #FediFrens 👋 I need [1] to get a custom #keypad designed & fabbed and I’m starting from a low low base of “sure I’ve put built plenty of electronics kits & learned a bit of electronics theory but mostly a long time ago & I haven’t designed anything myself”… 🙃

so what’s the best way to get started? 🤔

I found a couple of places that do custom #keyboards & have online key[board|pad] design tools, which seems about right. I don’t actually want to become an expert in custom PCB / #keyboard design, PCB fabbing, or managing Shenzhen supply chains – I just want to get this one thing made [2] and am happy [3] to exchange money for goods & services (within reason) to get it done

I’ve already looked at just using a gaming keypad to do the thing but I really want to integrate the keypad into the other thing to get it to where I want it to be…
 
 
OK, there’s no need to be coy I guess – I want to put a “real” keypad into my 1:1 #3Dprinted #Apollo #DSKY (WIP pic below)

what’s my optimal pathway to getting this to exist? I imagine that other DSKY nerds may want one once it exists, so the ability to turn it into a limited run after the initial prototypes are done would be a bonus

pls #boost4reach 🙏
 
 
(tagging in @projectgus, @voltagex, & @Unixbigot for starters…)

#AGC
 
 
 
[1] want
[2] yeah, I hear it too 🤪
[3] resigned

hi #FediFrens 👋 today I’m looking for your #recs for decent #AUSTRALIAN broadband providers for #FTTP plans…

I don’t need high speeds – something like a 50/20 or 100/whatever is fine – but will need an “unlimited” (🙄) plan, data-wise

who are y’all using? 👀

pls #boost4reach, thx! 🙏

This isn’t an easy time right now, this post election, name-calling, finger-pointing, confusing, disillusioning, disappointing time. I’m finding the convos and chats I’ve had here on the #Fediverse have been incredibly helpful. Even the prickly, seething, pissed-off stuff. I hope we can keep this going, because it’s better here, mostly kinder, smarter, more thoughtful, and funnier than anyplace else out there. The end ♥️😻 #fediFrens #fedi #Mastodon #wtf
