    And this is something I particularly hate when MS tries to push some new UI change that nobody asked for. Outlook and Teams new UI for example:

    MS: do you want the new UI?

    Me: No

    MS: I’ll just add a new App with the same name to increase the chances of you accidentally opening the new UI. By the way, I’ll make it difficult for you to switch back to the old UI.

    And that’s how I end up with 2 Outlook and 2 Teams.

    On the positive side, that’s just the work laptop because all my personal devices run on Arch.

        I use Ansible. Just have to be careful with the playbooks, so you won’t end up with a bricked system.

        I run the playbooks once a week from one of the systems and takes care of them. In my case quite a number of them are always online (raspberry pi), so that’s convenient.

        That has worked pretty well.

            Yup, and they’re very easy to setup

            It’s pretty stable too

            If your Nvidia drivers do break, just uninstal and reinstall them (reinstalling isn’t enough, you have to uninstall and install them again)
