MOVED to: https://mastodon.au/@Linux<p><span>My screen resolution can do as far as 4096x2160, with both Windows and Linux, recommending I use 3840x2160. I usually like my screen around 1920x1200, but something has changed with the drivers or something, because at that setting I end up with two black bars on the left and right of my screen, making it narrow. So I now usually keep it around 1920x1080.<br><br>That said, not everyone is using a large Toshiba TV in their living room (which doubles as my work room), and so I took the time to make sure this document could be readable at 1024x768. <br><br></span><a href="https://codeberg.org/Linux-Is-Best/NixOS_Configuration/src/branch/main/basic_config.txt" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://codeberg.org/Linux-Is-Best/NixOS_Configuration/src/branch/main/basic_config.txt</a><span><br><br></span><a href="https://mk.absturztau.be/tags/NixOs" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#NixOs</a> <a href="https://mk.absturztau.be/tags/Nix" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Nix</a> <a href="https://mk.absturztau.be/tags/Linux" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Linux</a> <a href="https://mk.absturztau.be/tags/Configuration" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Configuration</a></p>
