Not always, I have one with an amd chipset that I can't get Linux on (last time I checked).

You have to open them up and remove a screw then install different firmware.

The dell Chromebook 11 I got from eBay for under £20 was easy to get it working on though.

Yep I read about that when I first looked into exwm and it is a problem. I'm lucky though, I only really use emacs and firefox so it's not a big deal for me. I wouldn't want to be using exwm if I was doing some serious multitasking and using video editing software or something. I don't know if there are plans for a multithread rewrite of emacs but I hope it happens.

I'm going to set up lem.el at some point! I currently use elfeed to see lemmy posts from the communities I'm most interested in and firefox to comment or just browse about. I actually saw this post from inside elfeed originally.

OpenSuse Leap is my favourite distro.

Occasionally I try out others, some I really like, but I always end up back on leap.

Mandrake 7 was the first one I installed on my pc. In those days you could buy a boxed version with about 10 cds to install from.

I always end back up on leap when all the other distros piss me off, and I always wonder why I even bothered with anything else. It just works for me.

It is one of the best KDE distros, the yast config took is brilliant, the installer is great, it has fast servers in Europe (fedora installs and updates are way slower for me) and on top of all that it has a cool and instantly recognisable logo.

The only real nagative in my experience of opensuse is the long install times.

I am a pretty simple user though, I only really use Firefox and Emacs.

Aubrey plaza, warrick Davies and Donald Glover are my favourite of your picks!

Oooh that would be great!

I'm sure no one would mind if he played someone else in a series, we are an open minded bunch. Plus, he's just brilliant.

As soon as people come in here they always ask why I've got the heating on. I've never got it on.

On the plus side my clothes dry quicker than ever before! I nearly got one of those weird air heating pod things to dry them before I moved in but they get crispy just on the clothes horse.

Especially when they're on whatever that green shit is!

It would have been awesome to see nurse chapel do a double handed punch to a Klingon face and their head just explodes.

I haven't been keeping up with the development of this but I really hope it ends up being good.

Voyager is weird, for the first couple of seasons I wasn't sure if I would like it much but by the end I absolutely loved it.

I thought it got a lot better towards the end of season 3 and carried on being good until the end, mainly because I got invested in seven of nine.

I don't want to spoil anything but the shit that Janeway does is crazy. She's mad and I love her.

I even loved the finale that everyone bitches about. It was perfect voyager weirdness.
