Thinking about installing Steam on my new-to-me #AeonDesktop laptop and running from some zombies this weekend.

Nothing erases your brain like running from some zombies. Have a bad day? Watch some Walking Dead. Always makes your day look not so bad.

Barrel connector to USB-C widget came in, which means I just got a significant craptop upgrade:

  • Hardware Model: MOTILE M141
  • Memory: 16.0 GiB
  • Processor: AMD Ryzen™ 3 3200U with Radeon™ Vega Mobile Gfx × 4
  • Graphics: AMD Radeon™ Vega 3 Graphics
  • Disk Capacity: 128.0 GB
Had some weirdness with the #AeonDesktop disk encryption out of the gate (hello TPM 2.0), but got it sorted out. Battery life is not wonderful (it was mistreated by my kid) but certainly good enough for the likes of me. I really appreciate the screen real estate upgrade.

I've been screwing around on this decade-old craptop for almost two and a half hours now, mostly in #Vivaldi, running #AeonDesktop. Battery was at 93% when I started, now at 68%.

I have it in Power Saver mode, and I noticed that Vivaldi is much more performant than Chrome in this mode. I actually had to go look to see which power mode I was in, worried that it was in Performance mode and going to eat battery.

Starting to really like this combination for anything that's not processor-intensive.

I've been checking out @Vivaldi@vivaldi.net and decided I wanted to see how it fares on something with restrictive system resources, wondering what the #Vivaldi version of a Chromebook would look like. So wiped the craptop again, installed #AeonDesktop but without Firefox, pulled down the Vivaldi flatpak, and voila. Might as well be a Chromebook.

The #Aeon Desktop's GTK4 graphics issue (making apps that include Nautilus/Files unusable) has been resolved in the snapshot I installed today.

This also goes for OpenSUSE Tumbleweed, which is where Aeon gets its packages
