The IPS display for my x220 is in the mail so I’m getting it ready with my first encrypted setup of arch.

    Nice. Do you encrypt for fun or do you have a specific reason for it? I never really get why people do it. The archwiki even links to the XKCD comic about encryption in the warning section xd

      haha didn’t realize it had that comic till now. I guess the one and only reason is if I lose the laptop somewhere or if someone finds it it’s just a brick to them. Otherwise, yes, I have nothing on there that I would would let someone break my legs over. Another added benefit is if I die in a freak accident my wife can’t check my browser history.

    edit: I assigned it to sway exit this afternoon. It’s a dumb use for it, but if you want out of sway fast…

    I really dig my x220 with Arch too. Just got all the media buttons working. Trying to dream up a use for the blue “ThinkVantage” button.
