    lmao for real. i’ve been so tempted to just get a system76 and be done with all that. randomly losing audio in the middle of doing anything is so obnoxious.

      I haven’t had any issues with it since the last time fixing it. There’s a single app (Steam) that forgets its audio settings on reboot and every update replaces the launch script I use to help it remember, but even so, it runs perfectly well.

      It’s just that every time I do decide to mess with it, I end up with a silent reminder that I have no idea what I’m doing. Then I tinker some more and it starts working again and stays stable so apparently it’s correct now and I’m not sure I understand why. So I decide to leave it be, until the urge to try something new becomes overwhelming…

      “Never touch a running system” is for cowards. And reasonable people, I guess. I suppose I’m neither.
