A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Bring in some insight on your struggles! You using Arch on it?

You caught me (btw).

I've also ran fedora which is an officially support OS.

I like Fedora but I need some AUR wine applications and shadowsocks to smooth things out in Mainland China (am expat). Fedora cannot offer all of these easily, I'm not too well trained in building packages (I know it's simple lol)

AUR is super cool (when it's not getting DDOSed).

Building packages from scratch isn't that hard usually but it can be and AUR really does simplify that.
