I have 16GB of RAM and 16GB of swap as a swap partition. Though I have also tried a 16GB swapfile and saw no difference. I don't know about zram.

It's a 2021 Asus Zephyrus G15 with an AMD CPU and an Nvidia GPU. I got an aftermarket SSD off of Amazon so I could dual boot with Windows, but I haven't booted back into Windows a single time since installing Linux. Though that might be a good test.
I can try set -x once I reinstall my distro and get it back up and running tomorrow, as it is currently borked. Since zypper does all the downloads then all of the installs, I was able to see that it always happened during the install phase, not the download phase.
I am definitely interested in the possibility of it being related to the proprietary Nvidia driver. When it happened yesterday, the proprietary Nvidia driver was being updated (not sure at that exact time. But it was in the list of packages to be updated). I'll keep an eye on that for sure.
- Already done. :)
- It started with GUI, but I switched to command line, and even did it in a separate TTY to make sure it wasn't something weird going on with updating plasma from plasma. After switching to Arch-based distros, I have only use CLI.
- Currently I'm on EndeavourOS, but after the most recent time this happened, it won't boot, and I can't even mount and chroot to it (I get an I/O error message)
- No, I'm at about 1% capacity.
- I ran this from a live USB, and it came back with no errors detected, but returned instantaneously, so I'm not sure if it ran the right thing. Doing more research on it now. Edit: I did it wrong. The test is running now. Edit 2: Smart says it passed. :/
Thank you for the suggestion. I am unfamiliar with this, but I am reading about it now.
What do you use the UI for? I just turn my TV on and off. No user interface needed. Only a power button on the remote.
My point wasn't that nothing changed. My point was that if I haven't noticed the changes, they must not be important. I would be perfectly happy with Android 9 right now. It would make zero difference to me, so why would I go out of my way or pay money for a new phone to upgrade?
I can't think of a single thing that's changed in Android since like Android 9. There's no reason to upgrade.
I just disconnected my smart TV from the internet. Nice and dumb.
I graduated college with a 3.55. I got my first job through contacts (my sister cut the hair of all the executives' wives, I including the CEO's wife). They never once so much as looked at my transcript.
I don't. When I installed my solar panels and batteries there was a stipulation that if I charge my batteries from the grid, I don't get a tax rebate. Essentially they gave me $10,600 USD for me to not do that. If they catch me doing it, I would need to pay that back. However there is an exception for inclement weather. If there is a severe thunderstorm, fire, etc. in my area, my batteries are automatically charged from the grid.
Yeah, I just ordered a new SSD. I'll give that a try when it arrives tomorrow. Smart says it passed, but suspect my SSD enough that I think it's worth it to just try another SSD.
