I tried Manjaro last year and I hated it.

Something about the distro would lock up my PC, it would freeze from time to time.

I disabled the standby/sleep function, but allowed my monitors to go into standby. But if I left my PC for an hour or two my screens would not wake up, different types and brands. I had so many issues with Manjaro and while speaking with a friend I told him I had moved over to Nobara but he was still on Manjaro. But then a few weeks later he mentioned he was running Nobara. Seems he also ditched it.

He's been working with Putin on those amounts.

Googly eyes look more alive and soulful than he does by a long shot.

Unsurprisingly, similar for us in Afrikaans.

Just feet?

His drawings are horrible, IMO, in general, the example I keep seeing is how badly he drew Captain America and his weirdly shaped chest.

No Fedora?

I thought it was popular.

I tried Manjaro a few times and it made my PC unusable every time. All sorts of little issues and even though I disabled any sleep features my screens would not wake up after I had been away for about an hour. Nothing else responded either like my PC had frozen.

Nobara is my distro of choice these days.

I should have added this was back in 2010 or so, I don't think it was as common to be able to open PDFs in browsers without an addon.

I remember sometime after 2014 I was just able to open PDFs without any additional software.

I used to work IT at a school and reports were emailed to parents as PDFs.

We got a complaint from a few parents saying things like, why are the reports PDF? Not everyone has Acrobat Reader, you should be sending these out as Microsoft Word files.

I then had to tell them that unlike Microsoft Word, Acrobat Reader is free to download and install. Anyone can get Acrobat reader or another PDF viewer, but not everyone just has Word on their device nor are they willing to buy it.

I didn't mention the part about a Word file is easy to just edit.

I'm also going to assume that some of them are using a work laptop where they have Word installed and no admin rights to install a PDF viewer and too lazy to ask IT.

Oh yeah, I didn't think about that.

I'm running uBlock Origin as well and I have a Pi-Hole running on my network.

Guessing they chose to advertise it and made it part of the article.

I love how there is an advert and Amazon link for these exact earbuds in the article.

$20 off, worth the potential hearing loss?
