Uh… This reminds me of that one doujin… 🤔

I still have one of those! 😆

Didn’t use it too much, tho. Never installed it on bare metal, only in a VM, and back in those days I was in my distro-hopping phase (I was discovering Arch), so I tested it and quickly forgot about it.

Actually, I would really like to find a similarly non-bland proportional character to use beside it.

Well, there’s Fira Sans, but I don’t know if it’s what you want. I like to use it for things like slides and titles, and I’ve used it as a GUI typography for some time.

I use Fira Code Retina. I like that it is not too light, not too bold. I’m also partial to Cascadia Code and DejaVu Mono.

For the GUI, I use Adwaita Sans in both my GNOME and XFCE computers.

It probably means this hardware database.

I mean, I mentioned that my experience with Pixelfed has not been the best, since it lacks content and discoverability. I wouldn’t sign up again to Instagram (I deleted my accounts years ago), but it’s obvious that it has orders of magnitude more content, and maybe the recommendation algorithm can be useful sometimes.

Personally, even if I don’t want to, I have to use WhatsApp since everyone in my country uses it, even government offices.

Some weeks ago I tried to install Arch on an old laptop, and since it have been many years since I’ve installed Arch for the last time, and I’ve heard good things about archinstall, I decided to try it. Nothing fancy: single drive, LXQt, no encryption, auto partitioning…

I tried maybe 4 or 5 times, configuring different settings in the script, and every single time it gave me a broken installation: no GRUB, or no display manager, or incorrect video driver (Intel, no Nvidia here). I supposedly configured all the options correctly, but I never got a working system. In the end I snapped and searched for some video tutorial and installed Arch the old way. I have no desire to use that script again, at least for a long time.

Melodysheep moment. Their content is simply amazing.

Last September I installed Debian 12 in my laptop with an encrypted LVM. Then I tried to add a secondary SSD, also as an encrypted volume, by following some random tutorial I found (spare me, it was my first time fiddling around with an encrypted installation). The next thing I remember is that I was in an initramfs shell trying to fix the boot process 😅🤣. Since I was running low on patience (and it was like 3 AM) I simply decided to nuke the install and start again. Eventually I was able to configure the SSD correctly, but this event reminded me how easily is to brick your system if you’re not careful enough. Fun times.
