I agree that this is way too light. Hopefully the rest of the active duty Marines makes their lives a living hell.

I will second the Roku. I tried this a few years ago and kept running into issues. Some sites like Netflix don't offer HD resolution on PC. Then there are other services that have sketchy support for Linux. HBO and peacock are 2 examples.

I use my PC for personal streaming and a Roku for the main TV

I work for an auto company. I can tell you they don't want mass transit because it hurts profits. They would much rather jack up the cost of vehicles, offer deals on leases, and keep people locked into getting a new vehicle every few years. Just keep the machine running and fuck anything except their profits. You will see how shady the auto industry is once the strike happens next week

Are you still having issues? I just rebuilt my e5p (Klipper, Fluidd, bigtreetech skr mini e3 v3, and new screen) and have been working out the bugs. Everything is working good so far, but still need to find tune the printer.

I recently made the switch to JetBrains a few weeks ago. I am running Arch with KDE. I haven't noticed any issues with any of the JetBrains apps. Looking forward to the Wayland changes to see if there are any performance changes

I have been on Arch a few years now. I switched before the installer was a thing because I wanted to learn more about building my own system. Got hooked and still using it as a daily driver. I normally have to reinstall every 6 months or so. Usually my issues are all self inflicted. I'll try something new and cause something else to break. I have a laptop that has been running for 18+ months without any issues. But that is web browsing and light text editing.

So the distro is stable just depends on how much you tinker with it, but that's true for all distros

I think they are referring to making employees miserable. Remote work has been very beneficial for employees. More time with family, more flexibility, and you don't have a manager breathing down your neck constantly. So employers want the control back.

Then there is also political pressure from local governments who are feeling the pinch from reduced taxes in their districts. Got to bring people back to the office so they spend money in the district.

That isn't my department. The DBAs have been planning on this migration for a few months now. I will be doing post migration validation and troubleshooting. Since this is a large company and huge migration we have about 200 people on call for this migration.

eh not really. work from home most days, so it isn't like I am stuck in an office. When I was stuck in an office 5 days a week, a 7-10 day shift really sucked. At least now I can get up an do stuff around the house while we have down time. Since I am not needed for all of the deployment I am able to get out of the house just need to be able to get home within 20 min. So that makes this extremely bearable.
