    I used fdroid for the longest time.

    Then I found the neo store.

    It recognises the apps installed, from whatever repo you use. Shows recommended update based on that. So many options. Comes with dozens of repos ready to go and incredibly simple to enable/disable.

  • No problem.

    The only reason i know this is because systemd throws degraded warnings because fwupd keeps failing. On several machines. (Because DNS, proxies, VPN, etc.)

    In xfce there’s a panel tool called genmon I use.

    I have 2 specifically for monitoring systemd status

    First is just the status

    systemctl is-system-running

    The other lists the failed units using a script

    #!/bin/sh
    failedd (){ systemctl --failed | grep -o -E "●.{0,35}\<failed" 2>/dev/null }
    echo $(failedd)

    Mint cinnamon has a similar “spice” (panel plugin) that I also use.




  • On my living room setup hooked up to a projector:

    mint xfce
    sff tower
    dual core
    only 3GB ddr2. (One slot fried) 1080p via display port to HDMI 1tb HDD Use 2 VPN. An sshd server Myriad physical issues. Old as removed BIOS.

    (Was released in 2009 or 2011?)

    Memory is a bit of a pain sometimes. Mostly Firefox needs to be closed and reopened after system sleep.

    I can watch 4 football games in HD with no real issue.

    It is tweaked to high heaven in kernal and configs.

    As long as it can work I will make it work.
