Well, what you comment is difficult to diagnose. Years ago HP struggled with computers with this processor but it was by overheating GPU that is soldered to the motherboard. This is true for certain models of GPUs from nVidia, but I don't know if this is your case, you didn't specify the model of y

Re: Regular font for human beings to learn to write

Well I watched your video and I think the person who made it has NOT idea about what typography is and less about its history. To begin, typography is idealized writing. It is, to some extent, abstract, impersonal. Not attempts to imitate handwriting as when Gutenberg printed his famous Bible of 42

Hi again: Well your scheme is not bad. 50 GB for each OS is a lot, even if you don't store a lot of information in logs for run a server or something like that. I never use to install the \boot in a separate partition. I install the root (\) of each one inside it's own partition and the GRUB do th

Re: Dual Boot System

Hello: Well I have few experience with dual systems, and I don't understand your idea. You can have a SSD Hard Disk wherein you install one or more OS. You don't need to have a lot of physical hard disk for that. In fact in only one you can get two OS doing the right partions in a common hard disk

Re: Fedora and Garamond (LaTeX) fonts

Well, actually ebgaramond is one of many options available for print and save money and paper. You need to learn a little bit of typometry. One of the best books for learn about all this is The Elements of Typographic Style I hope you can check it and learn more, learn about more families and can t

Re: Fedora and Garamond (LaTeX) fonts

Well, perhaps the problem is not with the Garamond font in fact. You should take care about few typographical details, one of those is about the boldface. As you should know, the boldface is an invention from the 19th century, and the fashion of the boldfaces still goes on. But Garamond, or the

Re: Bit of a problem

Well, multiple boot machine is something very nice but we must be careful with all we do when we're installing the OSs. There is a long time I don't install Fedora, but ubuntu can specify the boot partition in the installation interface it uses now. I think Fedora also give us a lot of facilities.
