You could try Bluefin (Gnome) or Aurora (KDE). https://projectbluefin.io/ It’s an immutable OS based on Fedora. They have a developer version with certain developer tools pre-installed. The development environment is largely based around containers and virtual environments. eg. Using DevPod to run your software projects within developer containers instead of installing the tools directly on your host operating system.

I haven’t used the Modos Paper Monitor. Not even sure if it’s actually for sale.

You could look at the Dasung Paperlike monitors though. Or the Onyx Boox Mira. They should be much the same (ie. they’re e-ink monitors), though they are quite expensive. They’ve been out for years, so there are plenty of videos, reviews, second hand units, etc. out there.

I have one of the Onyx Boox Mira monitors (the 13" one). It’s a bit small and cost more than I’d like, but it has helped with eye strain as someone who works on a computer all day. Speed isn’t an issue. It’s plenty fast for anything except watching videos or gaming. The main caveat with any e-ink monitor is that it’s black and white, so you’ll need to tweak things on your PC to get a good experience. That usually means putting things in light mode or high contrast mode.

My Daughter Left the Nest and Returned an S-Rank Adventurer volumes 1 & 2

Story about an adventurer who retires young due to an injury, only to find new meaning in life raising an abandoned child as his own daughter.

I’m liking it so far. It’s a nice heartfelt story, mostly pretty chill. There are some subplots involving demons and politics and such, but a good chunk of the story focuses on the close relationship between the father and daughter.

I have a Mac Mini M1 and Asahi Linux works very well on it. Pretty much everything I use already has an aarch64 version. The IDE I was using doesn’t, so I switched to the JetBrains equivalent, which does work on ARM.

The one big letdown is that displayport doesn’t work. Only HDMI does. But going by your other comments you’re using a macbook rather than a mac mini, so that might not matter to you.

The Demon Sword Master of Excalibur Academy. Sensing that his end is near, the Undead King, one of the Dark Lords trying to take over the world, uses a reincarnation spell to return 1,000 years later. He awakens to a world at war with mysterious creatures called The Void.

I read volume 1 and I’m halfway through volume 2. I’m not sold on this one. The main sticking point for me is that the protagonist has been reborn as a 10 year old human boy (instead of his previous immortal Undead King self) and has his human emotions reawakened. So one minute he’s reflecting on how he single-handedly destroyed armies mercilessly in his past life, the next he’s getting bashful because a girl got too close.

It also seems like they’re building him up to be a faux villain who was just misunderstood or whatever in his past life. He wants to rule (both in his past and present life), but his goals beyond that are kinda vague. I guess I’ll stick with it a bit longer and see how it goes.

I’m sure it’ll only be a matter of time before they realize their oversight though. So thank you in advance for the powershell script ;)

I wound up installing the “Move Mouse” software to keep Microsoft Teams active. Seems to do the trick.

I used to show up as idle a lot because I have communications stuff like Teams on my (very slow, old, underpowered) work-owned laptop, and I do my actual work from my home PC. So the more I’m working, the less likely I am to show up as being active on Teams. But managers don’t understand logic. They only understand a little green check next to your name. So… Move Mouse it is.

It uses the API. They’re discussing what to do next, probably “wait and see” for now https://github.com/libreddit/libreddit/issues/785
