Running xfce4 Fedora brilliantly on an old Dell Chromebook thanks to this, fully recommended!!

Is Damn Small Linux still around?

Did you not ever have to have a controller plugged in the host and Link per player? That’s a quirk I’ve faced using my laptop as the Steam Link device, streaming from my desktop.

And yet they couldn’t extend the same courtesy for me when they raised my grandfathered family plan

I’d guess the concern was something to the tune of “if it’s only getting mb power, will it somehow dangerously undervolt or be otherwise damaged?”

I’m thinking that I might buy it once we have creation kit access and mods that add story and flesh out the game a la Fusion City Rising and companion mods for Fallout 4

That’s annoying. Part of the reason for local media is reducing the amount of monthly bills

What’s the state of apps like kodi or other methods of local streaming on Apple TV?

I miss my e280… With Rockbox, it got me through high school, getting to play Pokémon Silver on it

I got a used Fuze v1 off of eBay that works only as long as it boots rb from SD card, the internal flash now dead

While you’re not completely incorrect about it not being Linux’s fault, trying to gatekeep “anywhere outside of Steam support” is just as unhelpful as game developers not focusing on Linux.

Does that same logic extend to not-Steam’s ProtonDB, a 3rd party website for tracking how well games play on Linux using Proton?

In addition to rsync as phx mentioned, you can use photorec to get a deeper scan

You did well pointing that out. Imma just restate it here for those scrolling quickly:

we do participate in online targeted advertising and use analytics

When you need service, but data is blocked by all the steel in the ceiling/roof. I’ve used it, but with my VPN active. I wonder if they’re now going to try to block VPN services?

Yeah, this straight up happened to a dude I was rather fond of. We were working in desktop support for a big fintech company, and he used his not-quite-admin privileges to bypass the bootlock on the laptops for personal use. I warned him that it was a bad idea, he brushed it off. Was gone by the next week.

Twitter 3.0?

Because radio stations’ DJs would say “and here’s artist with song name”, I firmly believed that one of two things must be true:

Radio stations had the bands always playing live for them

And/or

Radio stations would present a local DJ, but they would then tune in to the artist playing the track live for a larger station

What’s even funnier about this is that my dad has at the time taught me how to use a tape deck to record radio and CDs to tape. So I clearly understood recording mediums. Just, the idea still lingered in my mind for a while.

Import python.Joke.ShellProgramming()

I mean, I imagine a primary reason is also that the mainline distros don’t use it by default, necessitating one to look for “spins/flavors/whatever” that use it instead.

I’ve been seeing both recently. I’ve opted to err on the same side and just make it clear when I’m talking about spinning rust versus solid state.
