    This is incredibly troubling; I cannot see myself ever using Wordpress going forward. It is just too risky.

    Very exciting, especially to see Moungi receive the Nobel. He is such a hardworking, humble, and honest person.

    The problem is actually much worse for topical drugs, where there is often very little information as to the how, where, when, and how much of drug permeation through the skin. It’…

    I made the same move a few years ago and honestly never looked back. Manjaro might have its warts, but it works really well, has an active community, and gives almost all the advan…

    This is very exciting to see. I invested in several System76 machines for my team, and have been extremely happy with the computers and distribution. Coming to Pop_OS! from Ubuntu …

    I set up Linux on a Dell XPS 13 with the HiDPI screen. With both Ubuntu and Manjaro it was relatively painless, especially using GNOME via Wayland. i3 and sway also worked well too…

    I agree. In the last ten years I have had Macbooks, a Surface tablet, a Surfacebook, and am now on a XPS 13. I found that Microsoft's surfaces had great build quality, IMHO on par …

    I did this and it was smooth sailing. All I had to do was set the hard drives from RAID to ACHI in the BIOS.

    I had the exact same problem - as others have already said, its a problem with electron not having Wayland support. I solved it in two different ways: - An unofficial Teams app ( h…

    Exciting, but let's see how long this takes to be released (not to insiders). I was excited when WSL 2 was announced, but it took almost a year to be released to stable. I had imme…

    Same here. I have a VM ready to go in case I need Windows. I just checked and last used it in April... Maybe it's time to delete that VM.

    If this is an issue, try using Wayland instead of X11. I run PopOS on a similar setup and it works flawlessly under Wayland. Give PopOS a try, you won't be disappointed! Edit: ther…

    Definitely this. Manjaro is out-of-the-box ready, but based on Arch. Manjaro stable is also two more testing steps away from Arch, so the packages are less likely to cause issues. …

    Running Manjaro Gnome on a 4K display; it works perfectly without any of the problems you describe. You might want to give Linux a chance again.

    I am a huge fan of Joplin. Love that it has both a GUI as well as terminal interface and syncs via Dropbox. I can use vim emulation in the GUI and real vim when running from the te…

    Started out with Slackware 22 years ago, and have migrated through Mandrake, Red Hat, and Ubuntu since then. Recent made the move to Manjaro because I wanted Arch but with stabilit…

    This strongly resonates with me. As as sometime who has considered Julia, I would be happy to sign up so that devs could use the information. Opt-out instead of opt-in is a dark pa…

    I have the 2019 XPS 13 with the hidpi screen. It runs Linux beautifully. I used to run Ubuntu 18.04 and now run Manjaro. Both work without a hitch. I use GNOME, so the hidpi perfor…

    I have had good success using Manjaro on my Pi 4 with 4 GB of RAM. It is an altogether vastly better experience than using Raspbian, in my opinion - even when using KDE. Docker, Co…

    I took a shot and tried Manjaro. After using it for a few weeks, I can say that I absolutely love it, and will be a Manjaro user for a long time on my personal machines. For new us…
