I don’t know if I’m alone on this, but I just bought the biggest 5400rpm HDD that was in my price range when I set up. Might notice the slower speed when doing a big data dump, but for streaming purposes you can run many 4k streams concurrently and the bottleneck would probably be your network speed before you hit a drive read bottleneck.

Thanks for the link update.

I’m going to go with you being crazy. Although based on your mention of “deja vu” and the number “4”, I did see dfview4. I don’t think that’s what you wanted though.

I can’t remember the last time I bought a PC. I just incrementally upgrade over the years. I would be disappointed if they came out with a PC that only ran with their flavor though.

That was my thought as well. I’m also thinking it might be a challenge to get something to read them in 100 years.

M-Disc?

My grandmother ran Linux for a couple decades until her death at 101 years old. My 80+ year old mom has been running Linux for at least 2 decades. Yes, I’m tech support, but I don’t really have to do anything. It just works.

I recently read Kernighan’s UNIX: A History and Memoir. It was pretty interesting. Also, Bell Labs still hosts a page with a lot of links/info for Richie at: https://www.bell-labs.com/usr/dmr/www/

Disclaimer: I haven’t touched Windows in at least a decade.

I tried FreeBSD for several months about 15-20 years ago. I really liked how clean the filesystem and environment felt, and have suggested it for many people over the years. In the end I couldn’t get around their license vs GPL.

I’m always surprised when these weird freaks believing in trickle-down economics actually exist. Morons who still worship at the fecal stained feet of dementia Reagan.

They need to check gardening supply places.

You can look up the man page for date. I’m not sure if that’ll do, but it’s pretty easy. Something like date --set="1 MAY 18:00:00" as root.

I edited my config, and it changed the font size next time I opened kitty. I’m not sure what is happening to you, other than maybe having the config file not where it’s expected.

Did you remove the # at the start of the font_size setting?

I’m sure you’ve seen it many times, but I love Bill Hick’s take on marketing.

Better late than never, I suppose.

Become comfortable with the command line. Learn the when and whys of using sudo. If you aren’t willing to do that, you may not want to stick with Linux. It can have a little bit of a learning curve in the beginning (nothing like what it used to be), but you should get more comfortable in a short time.

The only one I ever used was https://ltsp.org/ , but it’s been years, so I have no idea how it’s doing now. It was great for thin clients.

LFS of course.
