Use gnome-software and install flatpaks or official apt packages instead of the snap store
The books alone can crush its chassis?
Do you mean yoga 7i or yoga slim 7i? Slim is the one that doesn’t fold all the way back (maximum angle is 180 degrees) and still has a touchscreen but no stylus. Also how safe is it to sandwich the device between 2 soft-cover books?
Got a similar comment on reddit too. I did some more research and it seems like all new 2-in-1’s are OLED now, so I might just look for laptops with a touchscreen. Do you happen to know a bit about the quality of lenovo yoga slim series? The one I’m thinking about buying is yoga slim 7i 15-inch aura edition.
I’d like to avoid international shipping and just stick to the bigger brands like lenovo, dell, and asus though.

Looking for a 2-in-1 with good linux compatibility to daily drive, should I avoid OLED displays?

Looking for a 2-in-1 with good linux compatibility to daily drive, should I avoid OLED displays? - sh.itjust.works

I’m looking for such a device: - 2-in-1 laptop, or at least a laptop with a touchscreen (optimally also with a stylus) - 14 or 15 inch screen - Good battery life (thus probably intel CPU/GPU) and lightweight - Optimally not a thinkpad because I don’t use the trackpoint and I prefer to tap the touchpad instead of clicking physical keys. The candidates I’m currently interested in are lenovo yoga 7i 14/15 and asus zenbook 2-in-1s, but they all use OLED displays (I heard that yoga 7i has IPS versions but they are not available in my region). For these devices is OLED a problem with linux? Mostly, does linux’s software-only dimming make battery life worse? And are there ways to avoid burn-in risks? (I’m using wayland compositor niri) If OLED is a true concern, are there relatively new LCD 2-in-1 models with good linux support and battery life?

I find krita quite easy to use

I tried plugging in a headset and plugging it out. When I plugged it in 2 microphones showed up, one called “headset microphone” and the other just called “microphone”, screenshot:

But when I unplugged the headset both microphones are gone, does it mean that my laptop recognizes its internal microphone when a headset is plugged in? Also when I switch to the one just called “microphone”, speaking to the headset microphone doesn’t make the bar move as much as patting the laptop, so the “microphone” should be the internal microphone.

I don’t have a headset plugged in right now. But I think yesterday I might have a headset plugged in while shutting down my computer. Could that make the computer still think it has a headset plugged in? Though speakers work normally and I’ve restarted quite a few times and this problem still persists.
OK I’ll try that
