Isn't my fresh #ArchLinux desktop cool?

I just love how smoothly a Linux system tends to run. I forget I install it to a 7200 RPM hard disk sometimes because it feels at least as responsive as my Windows and macOS installs on SSDs.

Distro: #Arch
DE: #GNOME
Terminal: #kgx (GNOME Console)
Theme: #Yaru (Dark Purple)
GNOME Extensions: #ArcMenu #DashToPanel #DING
Kernel: #Linux 6.0.11

My #pinephone running #Mobian (mobian/debian bookworm) [1] worked smoothly two weeks in a row, using a beamer over HDMI through the docker to show GNU/Linux shell commands in a #kgx terminal to students. :)

Docker -> external keyboard + mouse + power + HDMI + phone.

Modem: mostly free firmware by @biktorgj . Nice to illustrate modem OS (old kernel) vs phone OS (recent kernel).

Hint: disable screen dimming + screen blanking (re-enable after lab session).
