Also in Australia, and I do boil when it’s rain water or ask the locals first before drinking tap water. Bigger cities are fine but small remote towns can sometimes have untreated tap water.

Peanut butter on bread with cheese duritos. Sounds weird, but taste amazing. Has to be the American duritos, other countries don’t taste the same for some reason

+1 for synching-fork. I have mine sync to my server and every week run rclone copy to B2 using the rclone encryption. 3-2-1

If you want something that ‘just works’ on a framework, I recommend Fedora 38. Everything from the touchpad gestures to the fingerprint reader work out of the box and I didn’t even need to dig into the terminal to configure.

dnf is really easy to use and works similarly to apt. Apps and programs stay reasonably up to date without breaking anything, and if you need a more recent version, Flatpack is installed already.

My battery life actually almost doubled coming from Manjaro, but I get what you mean. 3-4 hours isn’t that much with modern MacBooks getting almost 14 hours. I think this will improve as framework iterates and I might upgrade in a few generations

I just finished moving over from Manjaro to Fedora 38 KDE on my framework, and everything just worked out of the box. I didn’t need to install any extra packages to get gestures or make the fingerprint reader work.Much more stable, and has btrfs by default. The only thing I miss is the ZSH from manjaro was brilliant, but I guess I can set that up to be similar later on.

Not a good programmer, but I’ve been writing documentation improvements for a few projects I use in my free time. I’m doing it for kopia currently as the documentation for that project is not great at the moment.

Kopia is a deduplicating backup application similar to BorgBackup and Restic, written in Golang by a former google engineer. It creates infinite incremental backups, has encryption and compression, and works with S3, B2, SSH, or a local filesystem.
