  • I don’t know how things function in the US, but here in Europe it’s already pretty much a standard that average joes has totally the opposite opinion what media claims to be the result.

    And when multiple other polls with multiple time more responders shows the opposite result, media is always silent.

    Our politicians started to push biometrics / strong identificitation last year or this for every people who connects to internet. That’s just step closer to that “you have no pricacy” conspiracy theory created by conpiracy theorist politicians.





  • For volume control, I use Wireplumber:

    • To raise the volume bindsym XF86AudioRaiseVolume exec wpctl set-volume @DEFAULT_AUDIO_SINK@ 1%+
    • To lower the volume bindsym XF86AudioLowerVolume exec wpctl set-volume @DEFAULT_AUDIO_SINK@ 1%-
    • To mute/unmute the volume bindsym XF86AudioMute exec wpctl set-mute @DEFAULT_AUDIO_SINK@ toggle
    • To mute/unmute the microphone bindsym XF86AudioMicMute exec wpctl set-mute @DEFAULT_AUDIO_SOURCE@ toggle

    For icon I have configured the swaybar. I don’t use notifications, thus they’re simple to set for bindsym (above) if needed.

    I don’t know what this ‘gallium’ is. But your computer has a powerful x86 cpu, so any regular distro will work just fine.

    Becuse it is your first distro, it should be something well documented (large user base) and stable.

    I recommend you to format your biggest usb stick with Ventoy2Disk and it’ll be the last time you’ll ever format.

    With Ventoy you can try any distro in Live mode without installing anything in your computer before you’re found your favorite.

    Try at least Pop_OS! and LMDE5 (LMDE6 is released within a few weeks) over regular Mint and here’s why: https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?t=374128
