    Anyone switching back to Windows 11 for this awesome "feature"?

    Yeah, that's pretty bad. What's even worse is that 1) most users don't care and 2) the other users probably don't even know. But yeah, this video is getting pretty "viral" (get it? :P )

    Solved Backlight MacBook Air?

    Hey guys and gals. On my MBA I have Mint installed for occasional use only. Now that the days are getting shorter I sort of miss the backlight on my keyboard. Is there some package available to install in Mint so it would work again? Thanks in advance. EDIT: Never mind, solved. All I had to...

    Linux will run out of memory after a few days running?

    Just installed this in FF on one of my (many) Puppy VMs and for that purpose this is really useful and increases the functionality of said VMs. It does the job really well in saving (freeing) RAM so there are enough resources left to do other things without having to close browser tabs and...

    Can you install Linux on 2011 Macbook Air? Live? Can you undo it?

    You can't. If anything goes wrong during the installation on your internal drive and you will just make it say half way you will be left with a MacBook without an OS. As soon as you click "begin installation" the process of wiping your drive is irreversible. However, by choosing a "low entry"...

    Can you install Linux on 2011 Macbook Air? Live? Can you undo it?

    As far as booting a second OS on your MacBook insert the USB stick, boot up and press the Alt key. You will get a promt that lets you choose which OS you'd like to boot. This is the prcoedure. Apple allows you no access to the BIOS/UEFI directly so this is the way to boot a different OS. If...

    Can you install Linux on 2011 Macbook Air? Live? Can you undo it?

    Yes you can :) You can even INSTALL on USB and run it from a MacBook. I have Mint installed on a MacBook Air from 2018 and have run "live" for a while before installing it. As long as you have 4gb of RAM you are good to go.
