Me using no systemd, no flatpak, no snap… I think I’ll pass

ok, cool, but to do this, it does not need complicated legs/balance system, having tracks à la wall-e or 3 or 4 wheels would do the job

Of course, I even installed latest MX Linux on my 2007 netbook, with an atom 32 bits, 3GB of RAM, I replaced the old HD with a $20 SSD, works fine, pretty slow in firefox, but works :)

I’m using video download helper, an extension for firefox https://www.downloadhelper.net/ and it can download about every video from web site. At one time it was not able so it asked me to install a Companion App and with it was able to dl from anime site and all.

I understand it could make sense for 4G/5G telecom as transmit towers can be saturated etc if people download terabytes and terabytes every day. But for at home cable? having a cap makes no sense really…

Canadian? then https://forums.redflagdeals.com/costco-hisense-2022-2023-2024-4k-43-100-tv-model-sale-clearance-298-2629232/

With your budget, take the 75U78N at Costco, 2yr warranty + you can extend to 6yr for 150$ I think.

Hisense especially the 78N (and 88N) have absolutely beautiful stunning picture, maybe one of the best for the buck, check the review https://www.rtings.com/tv/reviews/hisense/u7n-u7-u75n it handles DolbyVision, HDR, 144Hz, etc

It does not use a shitty OS like roku nor ads like Samsung. You may need to have it plugged on internet for 1st boot and FW update, but after this you can obviously disconnect it, plug your HDMI device and that’s it, it will act as a dumb monitor.

Your btrfs was in a LUKS partition and you can decode it? But know that btrfs uses smart compression by default, so you can recover jpeg or zip easily in general, but for stuff compressed, not sure how to decompress them by hand … Like other commenter wrote, first do a full copy on another HD.

yeah about the same, old coot here, I plug a USB3-SSD (encrypted with LUKS) and rsync from internal HD to this external HD. That’s it.

Yeah, again, I saw this, there is multiple fork… I’m still using the latest 2.4.0 from 2021, I’ll see if it’s compatible.

I am using barrier for years too, I’ll check this one

Impressive work!

I’m with you on the french canadian keyboard, in a recent W11 laptop I got from work, it’s damn complicated to go in the settings, languages, etc and finally find the option to change keyboard layout! And sometimes if you have more than one kb, the system switch from one to another with some secret combo keys or damn god whatnot. I removed the US keyboard and just keep the FR_CA one.

I don’t know what program really is catching the keys, but from my keyboard, the vol+/- mute speaker and mute mic are working, my behavior enable keyboard shortcut checkbox is rightly checked.

I’m using Xfce, and the program to control volume is “pavucontrol”, no problem with it…

Plugin in my panel seems to be /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/xfce4/panel/plugins/libpulseaudio-plugin.so

Quickly came to write “AWK!!!” but yeah… you don’t want its superiority… 😜

Managed a park of HPUX, AIX, IRIX, Solaris at the time, it was nice. Yeah a microkernel could be cool, but we have FreeRTOS for embedded now, it’s not bad. I’m more into developing now

nah, in France, they were big supporter of HP-UX

Wow, same, went to uni from 1990 to 1996, everything was HP-UX, so I installed Linux on my 386 then 486 at the time, easier to do the homework, transferred on floppy. Always had a Linux partition, of course DOS/Windows was used for gaming, Linux for tinkering and dev. I don’t game for years so I’m Linux 100% for years now. I have a windows XP in QEMU for AVRStudio, damn thing cannot make it works in wine because of serial ports.

Pretty sure AntiX would work on this

not this P2, I think OP is talking about the P2 from 1997, I had a P2 266MHz and was running it at 300 (75x4), 32MB of RAM, 4GB HD, it was the shit in 97
