No distro. I mean the next LTS version of the kernel. On Gentoo I can choose my kernel version, but it general I like to be on the stable LTS. But recently I needed to choose a more recent version for better compatibility of the amdgpu driver for the one game I am playing.

Cool. I hope the next LTS will include this.

Thx both of you. This meme seems to tell only one side of the story, but it seems to be very true.

Btw., you don't have to live in the US to experience police violence. I called the cops once to protect me from another cop.

I see, I thought is was meant for restoring programs after login. Thx, for the clarification.

Does it also restore the content of unsaved files of the application? If not, I'll prefer systemctl hibernate. I wonder, what this new feature is for. Gnome had it in the past, MacOS has it, but I don't see what the use case is.

Try gnome-calender as a evolution-data-server frontend.

Evolution here. I will likely never go back to Thunderbird.

Try Niri (a linear window manager), I have tried it already for a short time on a seperate computer. It is very good! I just not got around configuring it for my main machine, yet.

And I need to test how well Xwayland works, because I need it for Steam and some games.

Did they not have a way of installing binaries more easily? I could be confusing it with another derivate of Gentoo.

Anyway, Gentoo has now a binary repo to speed up updates for some packages. No need to try NixOS or Gentoo forks anymore. (:

I recently (months ago) switched back to Evolution from Thunderbird. I used both of them several years. I had a webmail phase in between. Thunderbird has/had enoying issues displaying mail threads.

For calender I switched to gnome-calendar, because it looks very modern.

You could try Niri. I have tested it with a ~10 year old notebook with a 1st gen Core i5 cpu.

But, even newest Gnome runs smooth on this machine.

Even on Windows I try to avoid Powershell. I use bash through GitBash there, too. But, I don't mind using Powershell for work, because some workflows are already implemented in ps1-scripts.
