My own intricate system of 4 git repos to manage dotfiles, bash initialization, cli tools/scripts, and system state.

The last one keeps track of installed packages and “dotfiles” out of the home directory (system config files like /etc/hosts).

if you need less than 4TB just get a solid state

I got the HL-L2325DW last year. Connecting it to the WiFi using WPS was really easy. Making the desktop see it was a bit of trial and error, but it was partially thanks to the PDF viewer I was using, so I’d recommend printing from a well established viewer like Okular or the web browser, at least for the first use.

I don’t remember having to download any drivers manually from their website btw, I just chose it from the list when setting up a new printer. This process might change with the distro and desktop environment though, I’m using Kubuntu.

In fact, if you’re a bit lucky, the printer might even show up as a “discovered device” after you connect it to your network, even with a suggested driver and connection so you just need to press next.

“Desktop OS” also counts laptops. Unless people are working from their smartphones, I don’t think desktop is collapsing at all.

function command_one() {
    # activate the environment
    source "$XDG_DATA_HOME/venvs/alpha.sh"
    # run the thing
    actual_command_one
}

function command_two() {
    # activate the environment
    source "$XDG_DATA_HOME/venvs/alpha.sh"
    source "$XDG_DATA_HOME/venvs/bravo.sh"
    # run the other thing
    actual_command_two
}

cool, I’ve been using curl -s ifconfig.me after dig +short myip.opendns.com stopped working
