They work on any other distro I’ve tried. OpenSUSE is the only one that never gets an address. Static or DHCP, doesn’t make a difference. I’ll try again with your suggestion from a USB drive, since I don’t remember all the things I tried that did nothing to help. Thanks.

Could be. What blows my mind is that both my PC and laptop work on Fedora, PopOS, Endeavour, and Bazzite out of the box, but network is fully broken, LAN and WiFi.

Yeah, I’m basically married to Fedora at this point.

Could that be my issue? I’ve always done Gnome. WiFi is always broken. Network in general really.

I’ve tried it a few times over the years, but always find it clunky when coming from Fedora, so I end up jumping right back. It’s also a real shitshow with my System 76 laptop WiFi, just doesn’t play nice and takes to much work to make it functional.

OpenSUSE is hardly what I would consider noob friendly, but it certainly beats remaining under Microsoft’s oppressing thumb.

Correct.

I play docked exclusively, unless I’m traveling. Never thought about this need because of what I play on my deck, but maybe KDEconnect can help there.

The op in that post is 14 years old at most. Just look at how that shot is tailored.

Yeah. The solution to that is using WiFi all over, but that’s not feasible for most people. That’s the 1 thing I’m still stuck with. There’s no 2 ways about it. Either you keep feeding your location to your mobile service provider to have internet everywhere, or you sacrifice that convenience and go completely dark. Fortunately the option of VOIP for voice calls instead of a voice Sim is available, which lessens the issue a bit. I use JMP.chat for that. Seriously thinking about getting their data Sim as well.

All too aware of that. Fortunately I use nothing mainstream at all. For example:

Pretty much all of them. If I recall correctly, after the 3rd question everything was AI.

Thanks so much.

I kind of added that to the free text part.

I’d appreciate it of you shared the list of emails (can’t think of a reason for the usernames). I have built quite the reject list of email addresses and domains from unsolicited emails in our company’s email server, and while its slowed down the number of spam, it seems to never end.

“And would harm consumers”, don’t forget that part. How many consumers have been asked about this?

So, to save democracy, let’s go full North Korea on the platforms we don’t like. 🤨

You’re almost there in down votes. Good job 🤣

I dare Nintendo to find me via social networks 🤣🤣

I believe my company doesn’t, but maybe it’s just that I don’t have Amy which allowed me to live blissfully unaware that they do 😁
