My arch linux with KDE only uses 500Mb ram after boot and I have a handfull of apps in the autostart. So I would guess with some explicitly lighter desktop environment you can be well below 100Mb
If you have a chance to add an ssd or nvme you could allocate a decently sized swap partition and let the OS handle the rest.
Maybe you won’t be able to watch full HD youtube in big fat chrome browser, but otherwise it should work just fine I think.
I had a remarkable 2 for a year and was very dissatisfied with how hard it was to modify or run custom scripts or third party gui apps on it. Then came the subscription stuff and I ditched it.
Bought pinenote and even though I’m no linux developer, I’ve set it up and it works very well. Been using it for 3+ years now.
The build feels cheaper compared to remarkable, but the hardware spec is much better. And the best part is I can just run syncthing or kdeconnect or any linux desktop app on it and it’s great.

It’s my wish to read a blog that discusses the nuances, instead of onesided bla.
Sometimes it’s free to make you lock into their ecosystem.
Once you have an account with them, there is less of a barrier to solve a problem you have by purchasing their service, especially when you feel like you got a lot of value for free from that company.
HelloRootto Programming@programming.dev•You Can Now Disable All AI Features in Zed - Zed BlogEnglish5·4 days agoYeah thats the point I was trying to make.
Why is it talked about so onesidedly when it is actually multi-facetted? The blog to me reads like: “there are legal reasons against AI and there are fanatic reasons against AI, so we yive you the option to disable it (but actually it’s totally great as we all know and agree).”
I wish they’d addressed it in a more nuanced way or not at all. Just saying “It is now a config” would have been enough, but they went out of their way to point out only the subset of the arguments that can be easily dismissed.
Guess they have a product to sell that rides on the succsess of AI coding.

Nobody ever adresses that using AI might actually be less efficient (while feeling more productive to the users)

Maybe a briar or simplex group?

Because nobody said it yet: wash your bed with warm water and soap to remove any residue (especially oily fingerprints)
I think they mean making ALL corners not round. Or at least thats what I use klassy for.
But I realize now that my joke doesn’t work if the bottom corners being round is off by default anyway.
Next week in klassy : write code to un-round bottom corners.

Can you maybe try connecting them directly to each other without a router and without internet? Afaik KDE has a hotspot button/setting somewhere.
In my case I think it’s just the congested WIFI in my area.
And I have no way to cable up the devices without having cables going through my whole apartment.
It just worked for me between two archlinux systems. Desktop and laptop. But somehow it was super slow, turning that feature off and force downloading from the internet was way faster.

I am thinking either your router blocks it (some routers have this as a security feature, that a lan cabled devices can’t talk to a wifi connected devices) or the algorithm is smart and local transfer is slow so it switched to downloading from the web.

HelloRootto Linux@lemmy.ml•Looking for an alternative to google wallet, when it’s the default option to download a German travel card on my android.English2·11 days agoafaik in the past yes, now some places are phasing them out and going app only. Your link is only for one area.
You can do Linux stuff as a contractor/freelancer as well.
Find an offer, do it. Repeat until you know. Or mix in animation contracts, there is no law that says you have to hardcut switch the industry all at once.
