A few months ago, I asked for some fedihelp with switching from Windows to Linux. It all started with a simple question about saving my Adobe Lightroom edits. It ended with me deciding to get a brand new second Linux computer (with a virtual Windows machine). I had to make some difficult decisions....
Today, however, it was delivered... 🥰

Did a #Gimp install, which gave me version 3.08. The open file dialog seems to be terrifically buggy. Whew!
It opens an easy-to-find file okay, but try to customize it and it's rather messed up.
I'll have to go file some bug reports when I get through this.

Further to the #newComputer setup process, I've got all my files onto new machine, and the backups are running smoothly. Yay.
Working my way through apps and often getting newer versions in the process. Preference and theme export/import from old machine is not always clear of user friendly, but I'm getting there.

Setting up a new Mac and facing the usual choices. Migration assistants or manual copying into a clean install?
Invariably I lean toward a clean install, but it takes days of work. It's hard to argue with the opportunity to rationalize all your apps, files and setups though.
Guess I'm headed that way again.

Since I'm getting my first actual new computer ever, I think it's time to begin thinking about what kinds of stickers it needs.
If anyone has input, that would be most excellent my righteous dudes!
Of course I still have one more Dobbshead sticker that I have been saving for a special occasion, but any of my #SubGenius family or there have input on this, your word will hold much more weight.

Mucked up my new machine because I thought the second drive was mounted at /home. Just installed Manjaro KDE on it, and all is well. Hats off to @system76 for such a great machine! #newComputer

First tower in 20 years. Goodbye gaming laptops!
Totally new. No second hand components.
Assembled by professionals. With a 2 year warranty.
Case with wooden bits. No RGBs. Because I'm classy like that.
Great specs. Stupidly good. Too good for me? No! I deserve nice things!

Finally! I managed to snatch a great value M1 Mac Mini 16GB / 1TB! Some minor dings around the bottom from a metal stand by previous owner. Only 1.1TB data written and about 23hrs power on time. Really excited to finally move my daily driver from my beloved maxed out MacBook Air 2012 13" to Apple Silicon.

Picked up a new Intel NUC 13 Pro (i7) last week to use as a travel VMware host / Windows machine. I gotta say, I'm rather impressed. Even with the embedded Intel graphics, it can play some decent Xbox PC games too. Way more than I was expecting and way better than carrying at 15" Lenovo laptop.

Only a couple of empty ports now that I’ve set up my Mac mini with the M2 Pro. There are 3 monitors and 2 USB hubs for all my desktop peripherals + Ethernet.
That’s the hardware done - still a lot of software to configure.

Glad I don't have to do the X11 dance this time. #newComputer
