on the other hand ubuntu's PPA are clearly versioned

2018-12-30 16:18:37 UTC  

so you know before trying if it will work or not

2018-12-30 16:18:46 UTC  

It's why I use ubuntu a lot more

2018-12-30 16:18:50 UTC  

because pajeet use ubuntu and they have a lot of time

2018-12-30 16:18:52 UTC  

What chinkbook is it?

2018-12-30 16:18:55 UTC  

But I do away with gnome 3 because it's cancer.

2018-12-30 16:19:00 UTC  

I am using both Manjaro / Arch on the laptop and Ubuntu on the desktop and I have to genuinely say Ubuntu works better

2018-12-30 16:19:15 UTC  

@Raikon noname from Taiwanese street market, a non-international ASUS

2018-12-30 16:19:21 UTC  

it was released to Taiwan only

2018-12-30 16:19:29 UTC  

but rebranded

2018-12-30 16:19:35 UTC  

doesn't have "ASUS" on the case

2018-12-30 16:19:41 UTC  

LXQt is lightweight, but ugly. Budgie seems to run great on this, and looks okay.

2018-12-30 16:19:43 UTC  

but it is made by ASUS

2018-12-30 16:19:59 UTC  

Huh, interesting.

2018-12-30 16:20:17 UTC  

surfbook

2018-12-30 16:20:28 UTC  

ASUS sells a lot of off-roadmap whitelabeled devices to local Taiwanese chains

2018-12-30 16:20:46 UTC  

so that bigger supermarkets etc can market their ""own"" devices

2018-12-30 16:20:49 UTC  

and this is such a device

2018-12-30 16:22:05 UTC  

64 GB eMMC
1 x 4 GB Single Channel DDR4 <:kms:327934280619655179>
Intel Celeron N4000
1 x Mini PCIE (WiFi + Bluetooth)
1 x M.2 2242 (empty, but my NVMe SSD doesn't work)

2018-12-30 16:22:26 UTC  

oof.

2018-12-30 16:22:35 UTC  

and I paid 90 $

2018-12-30 16:23:07 UTC  

i5-2540M, 8GB DDR3 (2 x 4GB), 240GB Sandisk SSD, Intel HD 3000, and a 1600x900 IPS.

2018-12-30 16:23:11 UTC  

$90 for that little thing ain't bad

2018-12-30 16:23:14 UTC  

I'd pay that.

2018-12-30 16:23:18 UTC  

Sucks that NVMe doesn't work

2018-12-30 16:23:21 UTC  

I don't even have NVMe on this

2018-12-30 16:23:33 UTC  

Stuck with mSATA and ExpressCard

2018-12-30 16:23:42 UTC  

I want to try to put a non-NVMe SSD into it but I don't want to waste the money

2018-12-30 16:23:47 UTC  

the specs say NVMe should work

2018-12-30 16:24:06 UTC  

imagine having a 1 tb SSD inside a 11.6" netbook

2018-12-30 16:24:19 UTC  

that'd be nuts.

2018-12-30 16:24:20 UTC  

t420 suck tbh

2018-12-30 16:24:27 UTC  

T420 ain't bad it's just old

2018-12-30 16:24:31 UTC

2018-12-30 16:24:52 UTC
