1. Follow the site-wide rules
- Instance-wide TOS: https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/
- Lemmy code of conduct: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/code_of_conduct.html
2. Be civil
- Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
- Do not harrass or attack members of the community *for any reason*.
- Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the *thing* you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
- Bigotry will not be tolerated.
- These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
3. Post Linux-related content
- Including Unix and BSD.
- Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
- No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
4. No recent reposts
- Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
Please report posts and comments that break these rules!
Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is *credibility*. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't fork-bomb your computer.

And how did it look on the inside?
Doom should be possible.
looks like it snapped.
Try:
You'll have to install it like on the bottom
Yes. Arch Wiki probably has an article about this exact problem.
Yes, but it can't run flatpaks....only snaps
Great one! (Not just a nice one, a great one even.)
Now get out! Just Get Out!
When the compression algorithm goes too far
Computer.tar
Akshyually, that's just archival format, not compression.
.gz
Failed opportunity to create a compression algorithm called feather.
Does it post?
Instructions unclear. Wrapped laptop around post.
He seemed to manage it just fine, it shows up for me with no issue
Edit: /j
(I was referring to the Power-On Self Test. It’s that blinky-light thing mobos do before booting off a disk. For a mobo to post, it just needs a cpu, ram and power.)
Yeah, I was just making a dumb joke cause I like bad jokes :)
It's a pun. Post as in power on self test, and post as in post to social media.
I thought you mean he'd mailed it to you.
Have you tried turning it off and back on again?
That's why you don't put your laptop in your backpocket
*puts it in my butt*
*thumbs up*
Honestly the internals aren't necessarily damaged even if the case is obliterated, but you'll need a replacement screen, mouse, and keyboard for starters. Highly likely that the damage to the sockets and ports will require removal of parts and idk if it will still post afterwards. The MB is often smaller than the case itself and the bus is often wires in laptops, so it might have survived.
All in all, probably costs more to fix than a new PC.
Most of the laptops I've had open lately have had about the top third be the motherboard and the bottom two-thirds be battery, with maybe some ports and speakers tucked down the side. So I'd expect that last of replacements to include the battery, too.
I might check whether the hard drive survived - a decent M.2 is small, expensive and reusable - and maybe the RAM if it's not soldered in.
Just do a headless install.
Bringus Studios presents: Installing SteamOS on literal fucking roadkill
Oh, I know what that is, that is the computer of a Windows 11 user
Something something Cloudstrike
Its cringing
try to bury it in some rice first
I mean, Linux is pretty flexible. So, I guess yes?
Leaving vim be like:
Well, yet another viable way of getting out of vim
Ergonomic keyboard approach.
looks like you bricked it.
Repeatedly until it stopped screaming.
Gently used laptop
No lowballs
Will not respond to "is this available"
Price is firm
OS/2 WARP MIGHT BE THE BETTER CHOICE
Well, that's a challenging Linux install.
It will however run Doom as is.
I'd recommend CrunchBang, but it's no longer developed.
It went crunch but not bang yet
Just poke the battery and it will go bang too.
*Enhanced Flavor™*
There's actually a fork of a fork of a fork of a fork but it also hasn't been updated in 8 months
If you're talking about BunsenLabs, it's definitely still active.
I think you forgot installing the FLATpacks
It's gonna have to be "Linux From Scratch" at this point....starting with the hardware.
probably, can you run doom on it though?
Of course! This is the perfect distro for your laptop
iNsTaLl aRcH aKsHuLlY iT wOrKs
Try Arch, BTW.
Too angled for arch
Put it in some rice
Configures Catpuccin with Hyprland
Will this work?
Do you by chance live near a pet graveyard built on Native American burial grounds?
Shipping?
"fell off a desk"
... That was Balanced on top of the statue of Liberty or something
How tall was this desk?
Regular height, but it was on the ISS.
Rinse it under water for 15 and a half seconds, that should do the trick
There's only one way to find out!
Sweet ergomech laptop
Install Iron first.
Doesn't look like a comfortable chair, but I don't see why not.
As long as internal compoments are not damaged by some reason
Dope design.
Avg Linux install after a year
idk what happened but the laptop definitely seems less flatter than most of the jokes in this thread
That trackpad and palm rest is looking like Gizmo Duck
You don't need functional hardware to run Linux. It just runs on anything.
Sure... it will just buff out
It may be very mildly damaged, shouldn't be an issue just replace some parts

Don't install Rocky on that paper cutout ahh laptop or you automatically lose
I have an elitebook g6 running Linux just fine, I'm sure yours can too!
No ducktape in the roller.
Also, are those two packages with belkin products? Reminds of their colorscheme.
