From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

New laptop (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

Hi everyone!

I need to buy a new laptop to replace my 12 years old laptop. I didn't look after hardware for a while for some personal reasons.

I will buy something new. My needs are:

photo editing
video editing
vector graphics editing/creation
good battery life (I don't want to worry about)
web navigating, docs, spreadsheets
USB-C charging would be nice

I don't game, and Framework isn't available where I live.

I would be happy to have some recommendation on what is a good hardware for this use and good brand.

Thanks!

Tuxedo computers could be a good fit I think? It's like system76, but from Germany. You can pick from a few OS including an Ubuntu fork they made ( tuxedo os ). You can tweak the laptop yourself ( different you/CPUs/disk sizes/... ) to fit your use case.

Personally I've never bought there, but a friend of mine has and he's happy with his purchase.

Note: I do not work for them, or am affiliated with them in any way.

Looks like my account was marked ( unintentionally ) as bot in my settings. That should be resolved now. I found and updated the setting
