@bryceac in that case have a look at #tuxedocomputer . They have a base configuration which you can change. TuxedoOS is modified Ubuntu LTS but they provide everything as OpenSource. I have run LMDE w/o issue for quite some time.

TUXEDO Computers

Linux Hardware, Notebooks, Computer und mehr. Individuell in Deutschland gefertigt, vollständig Linux tauglich, Windows natürlich auch

Both @tuxedocomputers and @slimbook are on Fediverse.

They ship worldwide and usually deliver custom builds within 1-2 weeks. You can even select the preinstalled Linux distribution, including Omarchy and Pop! OS #linux #laptop #omarchy #pop_os #tuxedocomputer #slimbook

Do any of my #FreeBSD homies know how well supported this machine is? In particular, can it drive two HDMI monitors, the wireless network, and get OMG TEH SPEEEEED out of disks on the USB-C ports? Don't care about GPU performance, just about xterms and maybe the occasional web page with pictures and a video in it.

Intention is to run a bunch of VMs with other OSes for testing purposes, using #VirtualBox, and a fileserver.

@kev Oh 😔

I got lucky with my #TuxedoComputer then

Changed the battery of this #tuxedocomputer and all went well. :-)

How delightful, my #tuxedocomputer is doing the thing it does once every other month where it refuses to turn on for 1-6 hours despite being fully charged. Yeah, my next laptop isn't going to be a Tuxedo 😕

Edit: it finally fixed itself after 7 hours 🙃

Now my not even a year old expensive #TuxedoComputer PC crashed while listening to a YouTube video while clicking around on Google maps!! Black screen, then the screen came back but frozen. Tapping power did nothing, had to hold down power. #WTF There was a firmware update today. Hope I don't have these crashes now more often. Never had quite this kind of crash before on Linux. Had GUI crashes where kwin restarted, but then worked again.
Na so verzögert wars nicht. Der neue #TuxedoComputer ist schon in Betrieb😁
Ich freue mich auf meinen #TuxedoComputer und bereite mich schon heimlich auf's #Zocken unter #Linux vor und teste die #Firefox Erweiterung " #ProtonDB for #Steam ". So sehe ich im Steam Store direkt die ProtonDB-Wertung. Herrlich. Sonst noch jemand hier im Fediverse unter LInux am Zocken?#Freudeherrscht @tuxedocomputers

Mein #KDE #DesktopPC wird langsam altersschwach (Baujahr 2013). Viele Dinge ziehen sich in die Länge wegen schwächlicher Performance im Vergleich zu meinem Lenovo T14 Laptop.

#Tuxedocomputer hätte da einen MiniPC der mir als Arbeitspferd dienen könnte.
