  • Been urbancarliving for ~2 years now. Here's my battle station. I use Arch btw ;)
    It runs great! There's a few quirks since I'm not using the linux-firmware-full-surface-pro-3 , but other than that it's awesome. (it just has some issues recognizing when the flip cover is open once closed.) I especially love using Rnote with it. Source: over 2 years ago
  • I HATE CAPACITORS!!! What happens after you discharge a capacitor? Laplace transforms, integrals,...

  • Best compatible apps, extensions and tweaks for Linux on convertible laptops

  • I Finally Found a Solid Debian Tablet: The Surface Go 2
    - camera: Well, Microsoft was doing fancy stuff here; and most distributions just don't support anything but UVC (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB_video_device_class) style webcams. It's a pain point now, but may not be in a year or two. Also, depending on the lifestyle and the devices one uses, a non working camera may not be an issue at all; - SSD: Yes, this may be painful, but... For me personal it works well... - Source: Hacker News / over 3 years ago
