partitions are used for organizing, the downside is that more partitions make each one smaller
I end up running 1 btrfs partition sagred between all my installed Linux distros on one system
lvm is also awesome for resizing and moving partitions
my desktop right now has nvme0n1p1 as my efi partition and p2 as a lvm pv
inside that lvm I put everything else as it’s very easy to resize and move them (I also have p2 encrypted with luks2)
/run contains all sorts of virtual stuff, it doesn’t persist over a reboot,
I would advise against deleting anything in it as those files are used by programs running as whether user has the ID of 1000 (most likely you)
it contains things such as sockets and lock files so that programs can interact with each other
ah I misunderstood, thought you talking about underload, not idle power use
all the laptops I’ve ever had have been able to reliability pull the full power (like within 30 watts) of their power adapter rating so that’s a good estimate

apt-cache stats will tell you info about the cache
not sure your exact case, but I would highly recommend using pipewire, Bluetooth audio devices were nothing but pain for me with pulse audio and they just worked on pipewire
I’ve used Sony xm4s
you could setup a matrix chat room and just block federation as viewing the channels requires login
also has e2ee
I think it’s just a small screen given how big the font looks
man it crazy I switched to Wayland on my laptop and docking to 3 monitors just worked on Wayland and it would remember all my monitors settings
I hand like 2 or 3 scripts setup to try and manage that on x11
I think you can already do this in one shortcuts, not sure of any standalone program that does, if definably accidentally bond like Ctrl+d, Ctrl+s to screenshot before
I do not want motion controls on my phone
I had an iPhone with that ages ago and it was so annoying when in a car or on a train
babyrage
systemd is an init system that is super popular because it is so not shit and does what people want, and has adjacent projects that interface with it nicely
some people want more variety but put their effort in an unproductive direction
I think at one point I had like 2.5 tb of stuff stored on my 2 tb drive in my laptop, deduplication and btrfs compression is fun
well yeah arm is definitely the future, but edge cases and undefined behavior make parity between the instruction sets a major pain
don’t copy over the sudo binary, chroot I to it and then reinstall the sudo package with pacman
breath of fresh air my ass, these redesigns are just getting worse and worse
they’re absolutely gonna make a list of ipv4 addresses that were used at one point and the the whole internet will get blocked
