Just as a test, can you try ubuntu? It looks like you tried “enterprise” distros, may be worth with a more generic one, maybe they have a different set drivers.

Also, can you try running lspci command, maybe it shows any devices it doesn’t recognize (so you can investigate those specifically). Pretty sure there is also a gui app about drivers, but I’m not familiar with kde.

Oh right, I’ve read about that on coconut crabs I think. There you go, they are already half there.

Because tech (any tech) is even more fallible than humans.

Mhh, insects in general IIRC are also constrained by the fact they have exoskeletons: i.e. their internal organs are just in a bag. So they can’t grow too much or they just squish I think.

Imagine them being able to become vertebrates. You can have insects the size of cats I think before the osmosis breathing tubes they currently have are not a thing. Lungs would be the next thing I guess.

Disclaimer: I’m not a biologist and just make stuff up from what I remember from high school biology, and it was last millennium!

make a grocery shopping list (or any to-do list)

Stretch your legs by raising them straight (still sitting down) and rotate your feet

Stretch your arms up and move your neck, rotate your shoulders

Think what went well today

You run Linux in a brothel?

Yes, for mainly 2 reasons:

• it shows your employer that you are willing to learn and grow (and they could even pay for it)
• it adds value to your CV in case you want to leave

And retroarch

As @candyman337@sh.itjust.works said, use a recruiter/agency. Post your CV to indeed and reed. It depends also where you are, in EU the job boards are different than US I guess. Speaking of LinkedIn, have you posted a message saying “hello world, I’m open to work and I’ve experience at this $stuff”, and then ask your friends to share it. I got a couple of contacts that way.

Also, look for a resume builder/parser. Quick search gave me https://www.open-resume.com/ https://noted.lol/open-resume/

Pretty much everyone uses a CV parser when you apply, so if your is not formatted properly it’s properly one of the reasons you get rejected. Another reason is that probably they recognize you are above what they need, so they know that a) you’d be expensive and b) probably get bored fast and leave. Put stuff you have experience with, specifying what your experience is, what your contributions were to the project etc. Saying “5 years of experience on $language” is not very meaningful. Writing “I created a Perl program to import data from Word docs to a MySQL DB, optimizing the code to use no explicit variables” (true story btw) is better. Or most likely “worked on $project for $industry, implementing $modules and enforcing $best_practice, collaborating with the wider team and helping mentoring other junior developers”. Don’t forget to mention non-technical skills. Companies look for someone whom is nice to work with more than someone who knows everything. A guru that alienates people is less worthy than someone that maybe don’t know everything (and admits it) but can talk to others.

Re: time wasters. Holy shit 8 round of interviews! Even MS and AWS are less than that! MS was the biggest in my experience with 5 (but tbh it was all in a day, so not a horrible drawn out process, just different people). But you can ask at the beginning when speaking with the hiring manager what’s the process, and you can decide if it’s something you want to spend time on or nah.

Best of luck and don’t be discouraged! I had a 3 months dry spell once, applying every day to multiple roles and being rejected. It’s part of the game I’m afraid. Venting helps. Not getting a job immediately is not a failure in your part.

Best of luck!

Hum, what’s the use case exactly? Two or more people controlling the same desktop at the same time seems really frustrating…

GrapheneOS is the best way

good to know, thank you for the insights! Tbh Tailscale/headscale has been quite stable, so maybe I’ll stay were I am. Or move to nebula because why not? :D

You can selfhost it with headscale (the server). It’s really simple to set up and use. I’m also considering moving to zerotier because a) it’s completely opensource and b) the wifi management software I’m looking into (openwisp) has native integration

Always have been

I’ve installed ROCM before reading that my AMD GPU does not support it

Nice try mr. Copper! 😝

Religion is not “invented”, does not exist

Then Immortal it is.I’d even be younger of what im now lol

If I keep aging with the immortal one, I think I’ll pass on that. Living with a continuously decaying body would be hell.

If that’s the case I’d take invulnerable.
