I ordered mini pc equipped with N100 couple days back with intention to build home "NAS" with it and couple more services running. I think it's perfect for this, but don't have it in my hands yet.

They have such chips, like N100 or i3-305, but that won't cut it for more demanding users.

I can't think of how p2p messengers even could have webapp.

I loved watching my friend playing it, but I couldn't play it myself. First I had terrible PC back then, second even if I had decent one, this gameplay loop is too stresfull for my nerves somehow.

Well I'd gladly switch my car on yearly basis if it cost the same as my phone...

That's exactly the reason I bought Kia too last year.

Todays cars cockpit layouts are straight out dangerous for the roads tbh. Forcing you to point your eyes to some shitty display somewhere to turn down your AC, then try to tap tiny buttons and hope you won't tap on something else, instead of looking at a road in front of you? How is that even allowed ffs?!

That is terrible idea, it's even worse than my fun proposal of openSAUCE...

Anything with XFCE or LXQt desktop? You can try to install that on Garuda/Arch you already have. Or something like Sway, but that might be too awkward from the start.

Try Vikunja, it might tick the box for you.

I was buying new (used) car half a year ago. There were two reasons why I ended with ICE again.

  1. Price. EV, even used ones, are so damn expensive it's just not for normal people. Everyone is saying how they lose value instantly and so on, but when I look at the market, even the cheapest ones (over 10 years old Nissan Leaf that will do less than 80 km on battery at summer) are ridiculously priced compared to ICE of the same age and similar specs. At least that's what it is in my country.

  2. Chargers. I live in an appartement without garage, parking on the street. No way to charge it with "cheap household electricity" over night. There are I believe 3 chargers in my ~15k town and every single one is ridiculously overpriced. 1 kWh there costs almost as half a litre of gas. Considering fuel/electricity consumption, this is making the cost per km of both options virtually identical for me.

Everyone around me is very EV-skeptical and old fashioned. I'm not and I'm cheering for EVs. So I really wanted to switch, but hell it wasn't making any sense yet.
