Show kernel threads, it’s a setting in the htop config menu that is off by default.

It seems they are prepping to do something about the sea of unmaintained packages

Ubuntu still ships desktop icons on gnome, ding is a pretty good extension for it

Also vote bash, but I don’t love it…more of a tolerate.

Debian (and Ubuntu) has the package “fake-hwclock”. I’m sure other distros do too.

Periodically saves the time info to disk and resets the clock with it on boot.

Tbh I’ve always wanted to do this

while I still use ohmyzsh, a lot of it’s opponents make it’s slowness one of its complaints. You don’t need ohmyzsh to have fancy things, it’s just makes setting it all up a little easier.

Since version 4.0 the version numbers have nothing to do with changes and are strictly time based. Linux 5.0 happened after Linux 4.20 because Linus “ran out of hands and toes to count on”, same thing with 6.0 after 5.19

Try out zram instead of the SD card swap

Afaik there is no way to view usage for nouveau yet

Switch out the swap file for zram

Yes an option is best! Currently I have it with an extension although it’s kinda broken

I know not everyone likes it either. I only like it on my laptop, where I use the trackpad to switch between workspaces. It’s more clunky on a desktop

Full screen mode kicks ass on a laptop.

Swiping between all full screen with trackpad gestures is the workflow on macOS I really like

I really enjoy the “maximize windows go to their own workspace” thing that macOS does, it combines really nice with swiping workspaces with the trackpad.

There’s a gnome extension that mimics this but it’s kinda buggy and feels like a hack.

They probably won’t replace it past warranty but it’s always worth a shot

Ubuntu themselves package ROS, it’s a little out of date from the latest (1.16 vs 1.18) https://packages.ubuntu.com/jammy/ros-desktop

Try apt update && apt install ros-desktop

Ooms are much less necessary with MGLRU if they keep to a new kernel

Never too old

And also really not that bad for what it is. I quite enjoyed my time with it actually. It’s most egregious crimes are that Google makes it and privacy issues.
