Re: More Coffee !!!

Beyond the niche method novelty, I don't see much point, and it is far more expensive than just going to a local coffee shop and getting one (and supporting your local brick and mortar business in the process). Heh, I meant hypo but hey, hippo works in my case too. Given that a hippo has enough jaw ...

Re: MX Linux boots in init not systemd

You are only using sudo on the first command. $ sudo apt-get update && apt-get upgrade && flatpak upgrade That will only run apt-get update as superuser since this line breaks down as follows: sudo apt-get update apt ...

If you want, you can increase the maximum allowable usage to 50% by editing /etc/default/zramswap and setting PERCENT=50 (remove the '#' preceding it). This is a percentage of your RAM ...
