Aug 13 Adler's wildly empowering wisdom from The Courage To Be Disliked is that we all have the capacity to choose to be different every day. Choose to stop blaming the world for our shortcomings, choose to be happy. It's a radical liberation to embrace. https://t.co/Ys7POsEK4k 840 39 40 81.5k 271 .
Aug 12 "A certain amount of anxiety and low mood is not only a normal part of every life, they are almost a signal feature of adolescence... What might look like depression in an adult is very often just a phase in a teenager." 🎯 https://t.co/eZftVx2cHq 149 7 3 23.4k 246 .
Aug 12 Beelink now has an AMD 395+ option as well! Will test it out when it's available, but I love this chip, so I'd be surprised if it's not awesome here too. AMD has been killing it lately 🀘 398 9 29 83.7k 186 .
Aug 12 Not a day has gone by recently where I haven't woken up to a cool new Omarchy theme created by someone in the community. This Gold Rush look is just right for the morning sun. Thanks @tahayvr! https://t.co/pYaHkysuvO https://t.co/yxtYPiEk04 622 18 30 47.8k 240 .

Aug 12 Looks like the AUR is back in business! But the offer very much still stands. Every outage is an opportunity to strengthen the levies and prepare for the next storm. Because if there's one guarantee with computers it is that they all stop working from time to time! 161 0 3 23.8k 265 .
Aug 12 This is what the Meaningful Burden looks like in open source! The sense of purpose you can derive by being part of a volunteer group of software pioneers. Clearing the path for folks further downstream who can't do that work. Putting your skills to use for a grand, greater good. 60 1 0 16.4k 279 .
Aug 12 This is what I love about the AUR and Arch's rolling-release in general, at least when the audience is developers and technical people. This is the frontier work that quickly identifies issues, solves it together, and distributes fixes for all. Gawd damn barn raising! https://t.co/bC60NnoZVo 81 1 2 18.9k 292 .
Aug 12 As if the AUR outage wasn't enough, there was also a brief blip with a key component required for boot that left those who installed or upgraded in those hours in need of manual intervention. But the community instantly came up with a plan, pushed a fix, and got folks going! ❀️ https://t.co/j4Dzw4rAJ7 226 9 13 33.8k 302 .
Aug 12 In fact, this is half the fun of the Linux journey! Asking not just what Linux can do for you, but what you can do for Linux. And in this case, Arch! We can do a lot. Very quickly. With deep pockets. 256 1 1 31.1k 199 .
Aug 12 Hold on with any new Omarchy installs until the gang behind the AUR get the servers back in business. (Did we overload everything?!?). Working on making the coming ISO be entirely offline installable πŸ˜„ 799 18 26 96.4k 201 .

Aug 11 Got curious about running Omarchy on CachyOS instead of vanilla Arch, but after running my regular Speedometer, Geekbench, and HEY Test suite benchmarks, I couldn't detect any difference. Same performance. So speed boosts must be more targeted. 269 5 18 56.2k 244 .
Aug 11 "Omarchy has completely won me over. For me, this is the only way to do Linux. I'm 20 days into Omarchy, and I'm happy to report that distro hopping is over. Omarchy is it for me." β€” Drew Lipps ❀️ https://t.co/tZ7m1phsat 363 15 19 62.9k 220 .
Aug 11 Beelink's new EQi12 w/ Intel i5 1235U CPU + Xe GPU is a ridiculous budget champ. It's just $339 for 500GB/32GB RAM. Ran Tetris Effects from Steam at 1080p! Wifi range is superb. HDMI only, though! Here are my benchmarks: https://t.co/pd8Rx0eb8w https://t.co/ESmdxE68Mv 277 7 16 45.5k 268 .
Aug 11 Remarkable how often it's now the case that everything just runs better on Linux. Games, LLMs, and now the very latest CPUs too. 270 7 8 21.7k 128 .
Aug 11 The Verge and Ars Technica has the Framework Desktop AMD 395+ putting out a measly 17,000 multi-core Geekbench score in their reviews. It's because they're testing on Windows. On Linux, latest kernel makes full use and scores 25,000 (M4 Max matching!) https://t.co/bCEqA4GrVO 842 36 24 68.9k 275 .
Aug 11 I'm not even joking about the club, btw! The nerd cool I've seen radiate from Magic The Gathering players who were actually in Alpha or Beta? Radiant enough to blind mere mortals.

Aug 11 Linux is wonderful, but switching to it from a macOS or Windows is still a painful process of breaking habits and forming new ones. If you're not willing to give it five minutes of frustration, you probably shouldn't even bother. https://t.co/jKgS6VbQuO 1k 41 98 96.1k 253 .
Aug 11 "That's the feeling I have when I wake up in the morning at the moment: The Quickening. There's something so exciting here, so energizing, that I simply must get to the keyboard and chase wherever it flutters to." https://t.co/Ie3zJUCNQc 173 6 14 24.2k 237 .
Aug 11 You really don't need a fancy new computer to run Omarchy. I've been shocked at how well Linux runs on even quite old gear. So different to the latest versions of Windows and macOS that seemingly needs the latest and greatest to fly. 461 13 42 63.6k 233 .

Aug 10 Of course the Apple XDR is "more". It's got great HDR performance, the build quality is undoubtedly better. But don't think either of those things matter that much to most programmers. At least not to the tune of being 5x more expensive! 6K for the masses πŸŽ‰ 168 0 8 35.2k 257 .
Aug 10 Open source is usually born out of building for yourself, but it's a lot more fun to build things together! It's a joy in and of itself to be able to create something from nothing with a merry band of fellow software enthusiasts. Consider this my formal invitation! https://t.co/IysNguOOAS 682 26 18 44.7k 289 .
Aug 10 Just to be clear: All we need is a cli way to do what's already doable by hand by going to chrome://settings/appearance, then Theme, and picking a preset or giving it a color. That then applies to all open instances of Chromium. 260 0 12 50.8k 228 .

Aug 09 Love how Chris Titus shows how Omarchy may be omakase, but it's also an invitation to bring your own sensibilities to your own OS. Stick with the defaults you like, change the ones you don't, but you'll have everything ready right from first boot! https://t.co/t9IdRqCciB 316 19 9 71.1k 271 .
Aug 09 I spoke with Kimberly about why we're going all-in on Omarchy at @37signals for a bonus episode of the REWORK podcast. About moving all of Ops and the Ruby programmers to Linux, and answering the objections too. Have a listen! https://t.co/anAb1v0wfZ 272 20 12 40.1k 250 .

Aug 08 This is what project-nerd fit looks like. I remember this exact feeling when I first found Ruby. A deep, warm gratitude that something simply fit my brain perfectly. Omarchy is to Linux for me what Rails is to Ruby: A love letter in return. 549 19 24 58.9k 240 .
Aug 07 Shopify's scale and share of global ecommerce is already mind-boggling, but it's the relentless growth that keeps shocking me. Fantastically proud to have this company as the flagship for Rails at scale, and to be on the board to enjoy the show from the inside 🀘 263 8 11 44.1k 262 .

Aug 07 Omarchy v1.12 has been released. It's now got system-wide font changing via the new Omarchy menu along with power-profile settings. Install options for Editors + More fonts. A bunch of fixes.

Aug 07 In before "religion fixes this". And yes, I've come around on that too. We probably do need a operating system for the mind where some of these practices are just baked in as good defaults through myths, traditions, and repetitions. 101 2 12 21.6k 232 .
Aug 07 Louis CK made this joke/point a decade ago, but it's every bit as relevant today as it was then. Everything is amazing, yet you do nothing but complain about it. We are an utterly ungrateful species. https://t.co/ef5zhechzI 901 69 44 61.4k 223 .
Aug 07 "I find no inconsistency in cheering much of the antitrust agenda against Google while also celebrating their work on Chrome or their stewardship of YouTube.

Aug 04 New entry-level AMD 340 from @FrameworkPuter is solid! Single-core Zen5 matches the HX370 (2,900 Geekbench, so close to Apple M3). Only compromise is a 25-30% hit on multicore (12K GB, also ~M3) over HX370, so HEY tests run in 2m55s v 2m5s. But it's $630 cheaper! ~$1,300 all-in. 191 9 14 34.3k 279 .
Aug 04 It's shocking how efficient Arch + Hyprland really is. A fresh Omarchy installation uses just 1.3GB RAM on boot. No wonder folks are making this work on machines with as little as 4GB! https://t.co/twOJdPLnD8 1.3k 41 96 98.6k 208 .
