Didn’t cal.com only exist to be an open source version of Calendly?

Easy!Appointments actually looks perfect thank you for bringing this to my attention

That’s what I was thinking we might go with if we can’t find anything else

I didn’t think to look for WordPress plugins but that’s actually a pretty good idea

That’s one of the first things I did actually, I’ve found basic things that I don’t usually consider tend to end up being the problem for me in the end, however it’s not the case this time.

I was considering doing that as a last resort. My understanding is that nomodeset just pretty heavily nerfs GPU performance, you can’t do GPU acceleration, things will be a lower resolution etc, and again this machine doesn’t even have a dedicated GPU so for the use case I imagine the device in that shouldn’t really matter. I’ve been using it with nomodeset just fine and everything looks great and I don’t feel like I’m getting a lesser experience, but if I can get a permanent fix that works I’d rather go with that.

I guess that compatibility could be worth checking, but besides the swap for the SSD it is all the original components, I’d assume there wouldn’t really be any issues with that. I’m not gonna turn anything down though it could be worth just giving that a quick try.

Oh yes sorry I should have specified. It’s not just a black screen or anything it’s as though I unplugged the hdmi cable or something. I’ll see the Linux mint logo for a bit, it’ll fade to black, then my monitor just says “no signal” and turns itself off. The computer is still on, it’s not like it shuts itself off, it just doesn’t output anything.

The github repo has activity, but the last stable release (1.2.2) released 5 years ago. I’m not really interested in using the nightly build

For sure the ideal scenario. I wish you luck friend

It sure is possible, I’m currently dual booting win11 and fedora on my laptop, so they actually share a drive.

If you want to do it on one drive I’d recommend first shrinking your windows partition to whatever size your comfortable with in the windows disk management tool (whatever they call it, I don’t remember off the top of my head), then when you initialize a Linux mint install it should be able to recognize that windows partition. From there it’ll give you the option to either wipe the whole drive, or install in the empty space alongside Windows.

For what it’s worth I’ve had little to no issues dual booting both, it’s been working for me just fine. Although I will say, I think I actually have bitlocker encryption disabled, though I can’t say for certain and am unable to check at the moment. It would make sense for that to cause issues, so it would definitely be worth looking into.

Compared to some other alternatives, I think the thing it really has going for it is how simple it is. It’s really a drop in replacement for discord, something I actually think maybe my friends that don’t really care about Foss would consider switching to. They’ve told me they don’t want to take the time to learn a new messaging software, I don’t think they’d have to with this.

Lol you’re fine, I wasn’t trying to be sarcastic here it was a genuine response I thought it was funny :)

This is the answers I come to Lemmy for thank you bestie

I used aegis for a long time, switched to protons after they introduced it. Ideally I’d be using something physical though like a yubikey

I guess I should restate, I more so just meant I don’t mind it being wired I actually just meant external. I’ll edit my post but I’ll have to check out the ploopy trackpad since you’ve praised it so much!

Read “ad software” and was beyond terrified for a moment
