Buy the "Fiske Guide to Colleges". It lists hundreds of colleges in the US. You can look up by major, location, price, etc.

It also discusses things like social life, acceptance rate, and amenities.

I have 3 kids that are in or went to college. This was indispensable.

dont start with nixos. it is not friendly. Ubuntu is probably the best/easiest starter distro. that or fedora. go with the most mainstream so you have the least friction. Later you will be trying all the distros for fun.

i dont know suse, but try "dmesg" or look at /var/log/messages (or maybe /var/log/syslog)... just poke around the log directory.

Nvidia works just fine on Linux despite what anyone says. People are just upset because it's a closed source driver. I have used Nvidia exclusively for like decades without issue. Just purchased an RTX3090ti (upgrade from a 2060) for Ollama, InvokeAI, and ComfyUi. Plus I do a lot of gaming. All of it works right out of the box with no tweaking.

Not Safe For Life. Usually it is something horrific that many people never want to see... Unlike boobies.

GOOD

make the drive unmountable if it had a filesystem on it.

Ubuntu is a good starter distro. It is up to date and has the most documentation/examples on the web. It is the most likely to "just work". Install it and test it out.

i love my rokus. they can run plex and jellyfin without a hitch

if you did lspci >/dev/sdc1, you would write the output of the command to the beginning of the filesystem on that partition, thus corrupting it.

That's a really great price for a rattlesnake butt plug. You would be a fool not to pick one up at that price.

Nice, thanks for the tip. Just disabled Dark Reader!

chromeos is the correct answer. It maintains itself. Also, using gdocs, gaheets, etc., you dont have to deal with backups, "lost files", etc.

self hosted. postfix + dovecot. android email app, thunderbird, or alpine from the cli.

I didnt know about this channel, but i found it an enjoyable watch. thanks for the tip!

I agree. User is probably doing unsupported options. If they want to live on the bleeding edge, that is fine, but dont blame the hardware if something does not work.

Literally just follow the distro instructions. Even NixOS works fine.

I have no idea how you are having trouble with this. Are you using some weird disto or something bleeding edge? Like with Ubuntu, select "use proprietary drivers" and it always works. NixOS works fine too without hassle.
