How the f does that even happen ._.

NGL, changing the computer instead of the power supply seems a bit expensive if that’s the problem

Well I think my video card just died… So do with that information what you will ig? ^^’

Edit: video card is fine, the screen controller seems to be the issue

Any time! Can’t say much about the robustness if the hardware though, as I tend to take stupidly good care of my machines.

Have a tuxedo machine with TuxedoOS at work. I needed an NVIDIA card for cuda so I had a few kinks to iron out (NVIDIA I stg…) but the tuxedo customer support was here with me through it all, treated me with respect at all times and forwarded all issues to NVIDIA immediately, and they got fixed soon after. Solid team, sleek machines, nice distro.

Not op but we do magic cookie shenanigans at work to run a graphic app as another user. I believe that’s not a thing in Wayland.

Interesting, but switching will be difficult, unfortunately…

Thanks for the info

Goodness gracious, breathe man ^^

WAIT THEY DON’T ???

Until it doesn’t lol

I’m well aware. I was being facetious.

I was among one of the grub fiasco victims. Thank goodness they rolled it back pretty fast and I knew how to chroot.

That’s anecdotal evidence but good for you!

and it broke all my theeeeeeeeeeeeeeemes! \o/

You were just lucky. For some of us ut was just about having the wrong hardware at the wrong time.

Not complaining, I knew the risks going in and still love my distro, but arch updates totally can brick a PC with no PEBCAK involved. It does happen. :3

I envy them 🥹

Until you’re one of the unlucky ones whose PC gets bricked by an update. Happened to me twice. I agree, it’s wayyyy more chill than people give it credit for, but let’s not pretend using it as a daily driver doesn’t come with its risks ^^

It’s the same yeah

I’ll add: Back up your data and have fun! :3

There will be lots that will make you feel lost, because of the design language differences and the widely different philosophy, but you got this. Just take it at your own pace, one web search at a time and you’ll be grand!
