Your machine is UEFI, which means your usb stick must be formatted in gpt. Ventoy defaults to mbr which means lagacy bios. It is just 3 mouse click setup.

Try again. Because it is the best method. I just updated 2,5 years old Ventoy stick without any issues without re-formatting.

No. It goes off when I’m using it actively. I’ve never had any issues getting back from hibernate.

In the old days, it was Emacs trying to do everything. Now, it’s the SystemD.

Try T2: https://t2sde.org/

I have no experience with it but I bet it should work nicely since meant for T2 Macbooks. The project leader has a Youtube channel (mostly livestreams): https://www.youtube.com/@MoreReneRebe

Hetken jo ajattelin, että mitä hiivatin noituutta nämä Suomeksi olevat konekääntäjän tekstit ovat olevinaan.

That’s true. Nothing beats the 7-row. Luckily you can mod T480 with T25 keyboard if you can source the parts.

Yes. Thanks for pointing out my mistake. I corrected my typo.

Thinkpad T480 is the last of the good Thinkpads and should be more than your Budget

Edit. Corrected typo.

Just wow. Hopefully it works with T430 too, since it has so much more cpu power with quad-core i7-3612qm and runs much cooler than the stock dual-core i5 ever ran.

Too bad I have no time or interest to tinker with these as much as I tinkered 5 years ago.

Sounds like very poor management since everytime a business company switches system infrastructure, the end-users will receive courses. I was working in a factory which changed the automation system and every end-user spent 4+4 hrs in the lecture room and after 1 month of use they had again 4 hrs advanced use cases lecture.

After just 6 months every worker said the new system is easier and better, which first seemed to be impossible transfer.

T480 is the last good Thinkpad. Even T490 is a huge downgrade.

T430 or X230 if you’re into modding. The opportunities for modding them are endless. Keyboard from xx20-series (best ever made for laptops), FHD IPS panel, re-celling the battery with 18650-cells, second storage drive with mstata mod… If I remember right, T430 cd bay can be replaced with secondary battery too.

The old models are compatible with FreeBSD too.

Manjaro Sway.

Manjaro Sway ships with eyecandy and a lots of very useful functionality. The background even includes the default keybinds.

Suckless approach is IMO way more easier than Sway. What helps a lot is that you write an alias which compiles your new config and then reloads the WM. It requires the reload patch + just few another to make it useful.

The thing about bloated means usually you have festures you never use and you still need to learn the way other people did for you. When you start building it from bare minimum you add only the configurations you need and then it is much easier to remembee how they work. That’s why I never tried Hyprland.

I think you have to just try and find your favorite.

Live boot Manjaro Sway to see how the bestly configured Sway works. If you like Suckless appoach, then try dwl.

I never tried Hyprland but I recommend to try it.

Harder task is the bar. Yambar and Waybar are both hard to configure compared to dwm statusbar.

You can passthrough your Rtx 3090 into Qemu to achieve hardware acceleration. With software called ‘Looking Glass’ you’ll get a hardware accelerated Qemu/kvm window instead of sacrificing your second monitor or using a kvm switch.

Level1Linux has made a brilliant videos about Looking Glass.

You should also passthrough a ssd/nvme disk into your Qemu.

Install Qutebrowser and configure it by yourself.
