I work remotely, so the form factor makes it a great portable machine to go work in libraries, coffee shops or in a park during summer, and the battery life is good enough to be away from an outlet for an extended period of time (although not quite an entire work day). I also think it is the best laptop - the best computer - I’ve ever had, for my needs. I work as a freelance Go developer, and the overwhelming development platform of choice for the clients I work with - mostly startups - is macOS, so to make it easier for me to integrate to development teams (tools, setup, sharing installation information, etc.), my work machine is a mid-2015 13” Macbook Pro. I quickly started appreciating Arch Linux’ minimalist approach where you can relatively easily configure your distro to your liking, backed by an amazing wiki, rolling updates and an extensive, user-friendly package manager. At the time, I purchased a used 13” Asus Zenbook on ebay specifically to toy with different distros without risk for my work laptop. Since then, I tried a variety of distros and Unixes, such as Fedora and FreeBSD, but it wasn’t until early 2015 that I first installed Arch Linux. To install xbacklight globally, add this to your started using Linux more seriously around 2010, with Ubuntu 10.10 (Maverick Meerkat), if memory serves me well, although I did play around with Corel’s Linux way back when. It, though, has an history of being more compatible with different hardware, especially newer hardware for use with the services.actkbd service, which doesn't know about the X session. This can be inconvenient in some situations, e.g. Xbacklight uses X to change the light settings. It may be needed to configure or start some desktop environment-specific services. These include at least: Plasma (KDE) and XFCE. Some desktop environments will handle querying and setting the backlight, including configuring the backlight keys. The following tools will allow scripting or controlling the backlight using other means, if desired. Some laptops, using a recent enough kernel, will automatically handle increasing and decreasing the backlight using the hot keys.
