I got my new computer three years ago, but I still use the old one with Mint 18 on it for some stuff, and the Eee is in the drawer.

It’s about 15 years ago I used a 486 based embedded board with ethernet, can’t remember the name of it.

Your plan sounds good, then you can take your time working on the old PC and re-install as needed, especially because the newer windows versions are happy to kill a dual booted Linux.

Don’t give up before you have tried using memes to get support!

When light encounters a strong magical field it loses all sense of urgency. It slows right down.

I use Devuan on my servers, changed because I was annoyed that systemd was forced on me. (I have mellowed a bit since and accept that systemd is here to stay)

I chose Mint for my laptop, because I just want a OS that works and still gives me a taskbar. (Here I got fed up when Ubuntu switched away from gnome)

All of them are apt based Linux because it just works and when apt shoots itself in the foot during dist upgrades you can still wrangle it back in working order.

How will https://sh.itjust.works/c/curatedtumblr work when Lemmy is Tumblr?

Yes, and that’s why the professors are scratching their heads.

Trans men on the other hand prefer Haskell, top biology professors are dumbfounded!

A evergreen quote:

Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it.

With your powers combined…

Funny enough Cinnamon is Gnome 3 done right.

And I agree gnome in general has its sore points, I’m just used to them.

Never had a FB account never will.

The way we begin 2025, both the Fallout and Judge Dredd universes come to mind.

For me the drop-down for Mouth/Nose has a lot of empty spaces, that show up when you select them.

As a emoji noob it could be nice with some text naming the specific selection.
