That's weird. I have the same exact printer and it works fine in both Aurora and Bluefin. Autodetected and everything, even scanning works out of the box.

You have a weird definition of a good guy.

Good guys don't support genocide. Good guys don't strip away pandemic protections. Good guys don't allow health insurance to be stripped away from millions of people.

I got mine for $129. How is that overpriced?

i got a bootleg version of vans slip-on (aka vans asher) and in less than a year they’ve got destroyed already, it looks like the sole is about to come off the shoes themselves

The non-bootlegs do the same thing. Crap quality all around.

Hmm.. I thought at the very least you needed to layer intel-media-driver for VA-API support for Intel.

Yeah, powertop is essential and should come in the default image. How else are you going to see exactly how much power your machine is using at any time? I wish PPD+Powertop --auto-tune worked for me, but the powersave scheduler it uses lets my Alder-Lake CPU run wild and gives me a good 2-3 less hours of battery life.

I plan on sometime investigating how to make my own image using Universal Blue, because really all I need is Silverblue+Surface Kernel+TLP+Hardware Accelerated Video. But too busy right now.

The cons for Silverblue aren’t really fair

The customizing one most definitely isn't. As straight out of the box you can go to extensions.gnome.org and add all the extensions you want.

Now the big problem is the codecs, those have to be layered for proper vaapi/vdpau support. Then I had to layer a different kernel (Surface Pro), and different power management (tlp, since power profiles daemon gives terrible battery life).

While it's a con that I have to do this, it's also a pro that I'm able to do this where many of the other immutable distros don't allow this.

Get out of here, racist.

Yes, both are extremist movements. One (BLM) doesn't want black people to be murdered in the streets, while the other (KKK) want to murder black people in the streets. What is wrong with you?

You don't like Greek words that are spelled the way they're pronounced?
