I had both installed and was using them side-by-side. links2 was easier to learn and configure so I chose it over w3m, then uninstalled w3m.
Also edit: terminal browsers(at least links2) are surprisingly good if you just want read Wikipedia, browse memes, use search engines, and other static stuff once you get the hang of it.
If it can play video at a reasonable quality, hook it up to a TV, fill it with torrented movies you want to watch and you’ll have your own home entertainment system.
That’s one idea. If it can’t play high quality videos there are still a lot more uses for it.
It’s the original, slow HDD. And yeah, loading GUI programs is a pain but I don’t notice any unresponsiveness in tty, which is how I use it for 90% of its uptime.
That’s just htop, a pretty well-known cli system monitor
1 extra gig of swap was configured by Debian automatically on install. Should I add more?
Hey, IceWM is awesome! I’d use it but I prefer not to have an extra mouse cluttering up my desk :)
Poor choice of word eh? 😅
No, I prefer i3
Also that links2 thing is quite interesting.
It’s a CLI program that can browse websites (only reads HTML). It can even display images, download files, etc… A lightweight and fast little webpage loader, I love it :)
Forgive me father, for I have sinned 🛐

DNS=1.1.1.1 8.8.8.8
FallbackDNS=8.8.4.4
I added this to the file /etc/resolv.conf and it’s working again.
What can I do to fix the problem here?
Well the machine’s time is off by a few hours after I power it off for a night. So the time is incorrect right now. This might explain why it suddenly stops when I wake up and reopen it a day after installation. Should I manually set the correct time to fix it?
I did perform the self-test function, the long version that says it will take 10s of minutes. Some of the errors were displayed with red text before the test. After the self test, it said that my drive passed and all the red errors showed up as “Old age” in black text, every single one.
(This is in the GUI app for smartctl)
It’d be bad if I were working on something and the entire thing just suddenly broke down before I have the time to save and backup 😅
I used the GUI program for SMART and the list of issues got marked as “old age”, all of them.
It’s the same error, no matter how many times I reinstall. I assume it’s a hardware issue
Yeah the important stuff is backed up, but I am still concerned my entire OS will suddenly go kaput. How fucked am I?
I still browse through the political communities occasionally but I hate how their posts absolutely dominate the main page by default.
Yeah, the processor does. The laptop as a whole doesn’t.
I did some searching and this may be because Asus has disabled the functionality in the BIOS, or much of the peripherals don’t support 32-bit. I have no idea what it is tbh, and I don’t really care at this point.
