Behavioral psychologists working for TikTok, Instagram and the likes are like physical doctors working for McDonald’s to make their junk food more addictive while blindly accepting that it will become even more unhealthy.

What a miserable waste of workforce.

About a year ago I was lucky on eBay, winning an old Acer Switch Alpha 12 for ~95€ including shipping. I think it was released about 2016.

Even if it shows a lot of signs of wear, it is still a very good device. I received it with Windows 11, but of course I didn’t want use it like that. 4 gigs of ram aren’t enough for that anyway.

So I installed Fedora. (Had to rename the uefi boot entry for it to boot from disk. This is described elsewhere online but if you read this post and wonder how to do it, please dm me and I’ll be happy to help.)

Now this is my primary device for when I’m away from my desktop PC. Gnome is stunning on 2-in-1s IMO, much better than Windows would ever be.

Hardware wise everything works just fine out of the box, apart from the rear camera which isn’t recognized, but I wouldn’t use that anyway.

Honestly, the Switch Alpha 12 is the poor man’s MS Surface and I think it’s a shame that Acer has apparently given up on this device class. For now I’m happy to use this pc for as long as I can.

I use Recoleta (in the alternative version) for my personal stuff. I just like the look of it and it’s IMO good for both body text and headlines. I also like the slight 70s vintage style.

Ah snap!

I use a FFP3-Mask with exhaust valves while biking in spring and early summer to filter out pollen and this works really well for me!

Masks without valves are exhausting to me and fog up my glasses too much though.

That’s right. But the way (I think) it’s going to work, the Applications button will be replaced by the new workspace indicator thing, and clicking it will still open the application grid. So there won’t be a button labeled Applications anymore…

Personally, I don’t mind. But hopefully, new users will know where to find available applications. I’m not sure…

No it isn’t.

Questionable.
