The WiFi still works on EndeavourOS on my 2012 MBP but even then I couldn’t use WPA 3 on my router. I could tell the writing’s on the wall for that chip so I got a tp-link USB WiFi adapter that’s recognised straight away without any tinkering.
I get to use modern secure protocols and feel confident nothing will mess up because I haven’t had to tinker or try anything to have it working.
Also sometimes with a wireless issue there’s an easy workaround.
The ancient Broadcom WiFi module is the most problematic aspect of my 2012 MacBook Pro, but I got a fully Linux compatible tp-link USB wifi adapter for about £10.
I wrote that it was people who sneeze “super loudly” that seem to be doing it for attention, not just anyone who makes any vocalisation at all.
Some people feel the need to turn every sneeze up to 11. Saying like a cartoon character is a good way of putting it.
In the UK it’s shepherd’s delight / warning.
That’s an interesting little US/UK difference I never knew before today.
You’re totally normal and in fact it’s the people who are, consciously or unconsciously, choosing to vocalise the “ah-choo!” that are the weird ones, at least in my book.
It actually really bugs me when people sneeze super loudly, I swear some people just do it for attention.
Something about how her face is drawn in these comics really bugs me.
The only problem I’ve had was the Mac not going asleep properly, and immediately waking up. But that’s something I encountered on other distros including Mint also.
Found a fix for it.
Ctrl key hasn’t been a problem. Often on many distros the old hybrid Nvidia graphics and the old Broadcom card were both problems. But ok on Mint and EOS.
Endeavour OS has been the best I’ve found on my 2012 MBP
I didn’t buy an aeropress for years as I had a coffee machine and was like, surely that’s better.
But finally got one, and my god. The simplicity. The ease of cleaning. The nice coffee.
It’s basically my sole way of making coffee now, despite more pricey alternatives at my disposal.
Actually Sonic 3 is a slight improvement in this regard once you get the hang of things - Tails can be more helpful, and carry Sonic to higher ledges
Sonic 2.
Controlling Tails can be good fun if you’re very young and don’t fully know what you’re doing!
Can be hard keeping both characters on screen at times though.
Great song. I love finally being mature enough to just play anything I feel like hearing.
The Settlers II… what a game.
I’m still desperate to find a port of the Mac version, the DOS intro just doesn’t hit the same.
Encona hot sauces are some of the most readily available in the UK, reasonably priced, and they generally slap
Wanted to just chip in and agree that EndeavourOS deserves enormous praise for how much it gets up and running for you straight off the bat.
I run Linux on a 2012 MacBook Pro, more as a hobby than as my main computer.
It’s about the only distro that actually near-enough just works on that particular Mac at this point, with Linux Mint a close second. If I install it from the live image then change my network settings to use WPA 2 security rather than WPA 3 then I have a fully working computer.
Most distros fail to even boot to a working live image on that Mac. And if they do, then I can’t for the life of me get the WiFi working after that.
Being “terminal centric” scared me off at first, but I finally realised how little you actually need to know to install software and keep it updated once you’re up and running.
It’s an amazing distro.
Installing tuned-ppd (I think I’ve got that right) fixes this for a lot of people
Oh wow, that must have been amazing. I only saw it when the BBC broadcast it. But I don’t think I’ve ever been so moved by a science documentary.
All three are very good, very moving documentaries.
I’ve never been banned from Reddit even temporarily, I just like Lemmy more
Playing Sonic 1, Super Monaco GP and Alexx Kidd In Miracle World at my friend’s hours after school. Probably my introduction to computer games in general.
Then getting my own Mk II for Christmas, probably 1991. The best Christmas ever!
And getting addicted to Road Rash. I bought that game having never played it and hoping it would be good, as things often were back then. Turned out to be a truly superb conversion, probably prefer it to the mega drive version.
