Sizing the partitions is a step you (can) take when formatting the drive… And from what I can tell the Envy has an M2 nvme in it, and it just seems crazy to me to basically just ignore that to boot off of an SD card/USB drive…

How sure are you that you want to be using Linux? Lol

Just use Rufus, dude… You can even set the amount of space your image/deployment/instance (whatever the most correct term is lol) persists in, which makes it more convenient if (like me) you find yourself frequently wanting to play around with new and exciting distros.

Also, not to gang up on ya or anything either, but I’m gonna have to second the other commentor’s request for the info on that laptop, as I’ve never encountered one that prevented you from reformatting it… o_0 I would be returning the fuck out of that garbage… Even the non-ARM old chromebooks would let you do that.

How else am I supposed to get these bees outta my teeth then, oh ye who is so wise in the ways of science?

Sometimes, it really do be like that tho

Okay, thank you! As long as I’m not the only one in the dark about this lol I haven’t been on reddit since the start of the protests, so if I haven’t seen it it’s new to me 🤷‍♂️

Mea culpa on the unintentional gender swap, but yes, it absolutely was intended as a compliment

U fucking absolute madlad

Maybe this is a stupid question, but how do you tell?

Shots fired

I will say, the fact that it apparently can run in a docker instance (I’m sure I’m getting the terminology a bit wrong here, but… 🤷‍♂️ lol sorry! I’m learning as I go) certainly does make it seem like a neat little experiment to run, if nothing else, as I’m semi-familiar with it from my Linux tinkering. This would give me something practical to do with it, for a change, though 😋

It’s on the todo list, right after finally getting a Windows/Linux OS install server working 😂🤣

That’s what I was attributing it to, so I wasn’t incredibly worried about it. Of course, I was also tossing around the idea of cobbling together my own shard (or whatever they’re called lol) for fun from one of the PCs i have sitting idle so then I’d have no one to blame but myself! 🤣😂

If it’s any consolation, it appears I may’ve spoken too soon about the timeouts having gone away… They’re sporadic as hell

I’m still feeling my way around and have subbed to a community or two here and there, but (using Jerboa on Android) so far it’s actually not that different from using rif (for me, anyway.)

The only real issue that I’ve encountered so far is I kept getting timeout errors whenever I tried to comment (though the comments seem to have posted anyway) or when I clicked into a comment thread, but those seem to have subsided for the most part…
