bro has been without a job for 5 years and still claims to be active, you can't make this shit up

Hello

I was given an old decomissioned work laptop for free, an HP Elitebook 450 G6 to be exact and I want to install Linux on it. I originally was planning to go for EndeavourOS with Cinnamon as it is my favourite distro/DE. But since Arch often made me rely on the AUR for my specific usecases, which is in quite a noodle recently, I think maybe it is time for something different.

So why not get rid of the overchoice by just making my decision solely on the fingerprint reader? I want it to work either OotB or at least through rather simple commands. I also want to use a DE that can make use of the fingerprint reader for logins (imagine it like the linux version of windows hello. from what I have read this only works with GNOME and KDE so far, in which case KDE is preferred. But ideally I want it to work on Cinnamon.

I would also like a Distro that has a one-click drive encryption setup option like Pop!_OS does

Before I start, I know Arch is a complete mess right now because of what's going on with the AUR but that's not my point of discussion.

​

Basically I myself main Windows on my main machine but I have a Linux Home server running Debian and a Laptop I have yet to decide what distro to put on to.

​

Originally my plan was clear: EndeavorOS. It was my first ever distro that I installed and dailied, I loved it because to me it was basically "Base Arch made accessible" especially because the installation process made things like selecting a DE doable with one click rather than having to put a whole seperate ISO on as known with other distros. I also recommended endeavourOS to people who wanted to try out Linux but wanted to go a bit further but not too far.

​

However, I'm noticing that to many others, EOS is not considered a great distro. Chris Titus called it useless, saying it basically has the same issues Manjaro has (which I disagree with because to me Manjaro is a case of its own) and others too say that if you're a beginner you shouldn't use anything arch based and if you're advanced enough to use it, you can just use base arch directly. I personally think going for endeavourOS regardless could save time because its installation is so streamlined but alas, it looks like people are now recommending CachyOS for something arch based entitely.

​

I just wanted to know why people think endeavourOS doesn't have a place. I was just gonna install it on my laptop anyways but with the situation at the AUR (which I did heavily rely on) it looks like I need to find myself something new anyways

If this turns out to be true and the transfer happens, Fener would get ~23 Million from the sell-on clause.

So, I want to repurpose an old, extremely underpowered laptop into a small homeserver. It is an HP 15-bw050ng, has an E2 9000e chip and 4GB of RAM. I still want to use it though because I live in a studio apartment and the chip is so low power that it is passively cooled, so no noise.

I want it to do the three following things

1. Run a PiHole inside a Docker Container
2. Run a Bitwarden Password Vault inside Docker Container
3. Stream Steam games from my Desktop PC onto my TV. (Worst case scenario, I can skip this but having it would be ideal.)

Given that I want to do all of these with such a low power laptop, I want the Distro to be as ligthtweight as possible while still being able to run a DE, preferably XFCE and of course Steam/Docker.

I thought about running an immutable OS because I thought it would be safer for a device that is storing my passwords, MicroOS was what came to mind but I don't know if that one will allow me to do what I want. My original Idea was to stick with EndeavourOS which is the Distro I usually pick if I have to go to the Linux side, but at 2GB of Minimum system RAM it is too heavy. Base Debian was also something I thought of but I always struggled with apt. Any recommendations?

"We couldn't do a good job regarding communcation in the Lookman transfer process. Not to make any excuses, the transfer window, the financial planning and the legal issues all piled up. The reason we couldn't get Look man wasn't because of the letter of guarantee, I was there first hand at the table, everyone wanted the transfer, everything claiming otherwise is fake news. While abroad, Atalanta's executives hastily went back for you know exactly what reasons. They left the table and everything became uncertain. This is why the transfer failed, it would have failed either way, even if we managed to give them the letter of guarantee in time.
