Wrote a howto on ZRAM configuration for Slackware -current, covers compression algorithms (lz4, zstd, lzo-rle, etc), device sizing for different RAM scenarios, and monitoring. Useful if you're tweaking the defaults in /etc/default/zram.

I recently switched to #Linux Mint. I mean, the reasons are obvious so I will save that for a different time. What really struck me was just how easy it was to actually do it. Problems were minor and mainly due to the fact that I have an Nvidia card in my laptop.
Aside from that, I was up and running quickly. Apps I wanted, (including Steam,) were easy to find and install. There were a couple apps that I needed to find replacements for, like Notepad++.
Yesterday, I deleted my #Windows drive.

It prints my calendar to my super-loud dot-matrix printer, then plays music until I get outta bet and smack my PC 
Hey #lenovo , can you stop this crap?
I have a #thinkpad x13s that apparently needs a SPECIAL version of #windows11 that only YOU have.
And when I go to get it, not only do i have to register, provide a serial number and deal with captca.. but then you give me an EXE to create the media??!?!
I have a machine that can't boot windows so you give me a windows executable?
Why not just a damn ISO? I wish #linux would boot on this thing

Wusstet ihr, dass `curl` dieses Jahr 26 wird? Das Tool läuft auf Kühlschränken, Raumsonden und vermutlich auch auf dem Server, den ihr gerade vergesst zu patchen. 🛸

I’ve been running Linux off and on for years. But with a break from any meaningful experimentation since I bought my Steam Deck, I decided it was time for something new.
So I did the cliché thing and bought a used Thinkpad on eBay to install Linux on. Here’s my initial experience, with some backstory about my journey until now.

My new printer stopped working under #LinuxMint the other day. Re-adding it resulted in a general error message.
Finally found the solution:
In the printer's "location" field, I had specified "Mein Büro" ("My office" in German). And Cups does not like umlauts in that field. 😶
After removing the "ü", the printer worked.
Maybe this information will be helpful to someone, at some point. 🙂

Tomorrow (May 1st) is a holiday, which means free day to stream Budgie 11 dev! Work continues on wl_output support in #BudgieDesktop Services, which I've made good progress on generalizing interfaces for off-stream.
