yes I know archinstall, no I don’t think it should be how someone installs arch for the first time.
the manual install for arch is pretty simple if you just read the wiki and you learn so much troubleshooting information from it. if someone is trying arch they should definitely go through the manual process
plain debian maybe? it’s a bit more manual but not to the extent of arch, and the netinstaller is really nice
if you are motivated to learn Linux I really can’t recommend trying something basic like debian, arch, alpine etc enough
ah yeah, that’s fair.
i’ve found the fw13 keyboard and the thinkpad xx30 keyboards are pretty good, but even the xx30 ones are extremely dependent on the age and manufacturer, so it’s basically just luck at this point
how do you find the keyboard? I’ve tried typing on a few macbooks but my fingers could never get used to it

i think it does global syncing by default
old T (until t440p) you could upgrade the cpu as well, and they are dirt cheap on aliexpress
don’t know if a refurbished thinkpad is good if you’re on a budget, by the time you realise you might have a couple dozen of them on your desk all running linux
just choose something that’s been around for a while, e.g. debian, opensuse, fedora, etc
ig it’s a counterpart to recaptcha which is in the left panel
math is always stronger than marketing
nitter.net and stuff are back btw
so do they not have the same updates on fwupd/efi updaters?
you could also use some s3 object storage service, backblaze’s one is $6/TB/month
+ templeos (you have no internet)
maybe? I think knowing how to reinstall your boot loader at least is very important though, for the inevitable case of having to deal with a windows dual boot computer somewhere
