Past elections are on Wikipedia. And this one will take a while to pull the numbers together, but it’ll be added in the coming months.

My kids only knew Linux from the first day they used a computer.

They didn’t have any difficulty transitioning between that at home and the chromebooks or windows desktops the school had.

I started out with a Knoppix live-CD back in 2002. Remember that distro?

Thats what got me to start dual-booting and eventually nuke my Win XP install entirely.

It’s been all penguins ever since.

Discord works great on Linux nowadays.

And has done so for quite some time.

Black Friday, the shopping day is a gimmick

And one that’s been exported to other countries who don’t even have the same national holiday adjacent to that friday giving people the excuse to shop more on that particular day.

Here it’s nothing but a cynical corporate cash grab.

You don’t have to tell the truth.

Making it exactly like any other dating app.

how do I know someone hasn’t placed a bomb inside

You learn enough about electronics to identify things that shouldn’t be in there, and then you open up and analyze your devices.

Alternatively, you could not become involved with an organization that is at war with a powerful country who has a capable spy/espionage agency.

I’ve used old laptops as battery backed up NAS boxes.

Obviously assumes that you can install a reasonably large drive and that the battery still has some life left in it.

I was about to say something similar.

I suspect that people in their target market not being made aware of it is part of the problem that is leading them to shut down.

Don’t bring that to their attention- they’ll start banning open source too.

I tried FreeBSD many years ago (back when I was on dialup and bought a book with the FreeBSD install CD included…).

At the time it was interesting to tinker with, and I did use it as a dual-boot on my Win95 computer, but I moved on to Linux when Knoppix came along.

At the time linux seemed more end user friendly.

Maybe I should spin up an install just for nostalgia sake, and to see where it’s at these days.

It’s also on the cusp of a major upgrade release, so good documentation of the latest version’s features will be in high demand very soon.

If that happened, I sincerely hope there is proof, and that it’s on its way to a capable prosecutor.

Preferably before November.

Most that I’ve found have been on the ground near bus stops.

Multiple TB when setting up a new server to mirror an existing one. (Did an initial copy with both together in the same room, before moving the clone to a physically separate location. Doing that initial copy would saturate the network connection for a week or more otherwise)

I’d expect Apple’s move to be followed by a lot of creators adding a “Don’t use the iOS Patreon app”

I’ve already received similar posts from a couple of patreon accounts I follow.

The only reason I paid for Lightburn in the first place is because it’s the only even slightly mature laser software that supports Linux.

Given this news, what are our options?

LagerGRBL seems to be open source, but nobody packages that for Linux as far as I can tell.

And I wasn’t able to find anything else when I was looking last year.

I’ve been a teenage boy before and I did some bone-headed things

Same.

I would be surprised if anyone with the same history didnt do at least a few completely boneheaded things at one point in their youth.

Then once you have crypto in a wallet on peertube, it has to be deposited into the CEX - that is if the CEX has that particular cryptocurrency. Should it not, then a DEX is required, which means more steps.

That’s one of the pain points with Odysee.

The crypto that they pay out with is not directly able to be converted to fiat . You have to go through an intermediary crypto coin first, then convert to something you can buy food with.

What was the last version of Windows you used before hopping on over?

Windows95

I got sick of constantly dealing with the BSOD.
