They reached a trillion because they don’t pay livable wages.

I came here to suggest MX Linux w/XFCE. I use the plasma flavor mostly now but I’ve been using MX as my daily driver for like… 2-3 years now.

I’ve been meaning to do something like a portable library myself. Your version of that sounds interesting.

Do you mind if I ask what the AFAQ is? A Google search didn’t lead me to a concrete answer.

How much storage does it have? Google search indicates it may just be 32GB. With a small distro, you just maybe just barely fit text only Wikipedia on there with Kiwix (or whatever the Wikipedia archive reader is called.)

Alternatively, you could put some books from Project Gutenberg on there. Throw in some public domain music recordings, a freely available movie or two (like the ones from the blender project), and maybe some light weight open source games… Then, you could have have yourself a portable offline library which could be shared with no legal repercussions.

I feel like you don’t understand the meaning of the word “ever.”

How about a project Gutenberg “best of” CD full of free public domain ebooks?

You guys are actually using chat GPT?

It’s so awful that these are harvested for skate boards. Are those sick ollies really worth it?

I love that website. I’m considering getting the printed volumes to support them, even though I’ve read most of the articles already.

Most of the time, when English speakers add random umlauts to a word, it makes no sense. But this is actually the correct pronunciation of ä.

Could be! I have no idea.

I’m not an expert, but I believes he codes the Linux Kernel on Asahi these days.

There’s a lotta people named Ian who are very upset right now

It’s nice of Batman to watch over that family at the beach.

If you know the model of your motherboard, you could look up the user manual. Then you don’t need to open it to see if you have two slots. Also, I don’t know your setup. If you have a slot for a physically bigger hard drive, then it might be a good idea to get a bigger storage drive as your second drive. If you like Linux, then reinstall it to your main drive and keep the second drive as storage drive.

Blu Ray players too. I have a Sony BPX 370, and it will play any (non 3D or 4k) Blu Ray or DVD from anywhere in the world.

This was my favorite movie growing up, and I quote it frequently despite not having seen it in years. One day, my husband (who has never seen it) said “wait, is this movie a comedy? I thought it was a tragedy?” …it’s both.

Also “once it hits your prostate, you’re a goner” is very relevant right now.

“und so weiter” which is a phrase that literally has no English equivalent. It’s so special and unique and conveys a feeling of…

Nah, just kidding. It means “and so forth.”
