I’m graduating a year later too.

I highly recommend the man pages versus what is on Google. Type ‘man’ or ‘man -k’ to search them. Also available on the web for your particular distro.

Also you might wanna increase the block size in dd. And, it might be faster to use dump and restore, since that isn’t copying empty space.

It seems like I woke it up from a decade-long hibernation and is unable to boot. However, the disk reads fine in an enclosure.

Publisher matters. Some random website advertising a disk cleaning utility could be malware while a Fitgirl repack most definitely isn’t. Installing something from an official Ubuntu software repository is also pretty safe, while something from a 3rd party repository or community development library could be malware. I also generally trust PDFs from Anna’s Archive and Libgen or Internet Archive, because of the reputation loss to them if it were. You can minimize your risk to a tolerable level this way.

I’ve got news for you, that’s slime not mint.

Mac OS X was installed in 2010/2011. Back when people didn’t hate Apple.

My dad did in 2011. Wikipedia says this is a popular model to Hackintosh.

One thing I will agree with is to stop using SCP.

https://www.brightblack.net/blog/2024-02-09-scp-was-deprecated/

It was deprecated a while back and older, but more experienced Unix wizards still suggest it. SFTP is an alternative, but rsync also works.

Skip Fedora and leap straight to OpenSUSE Tumbleweed.

In that instance maybe run docker with gluetun and qbitnox. It’s a bit difficult to setup but will sort of achieve what you’re looking for.

Can you set the interface in qbit to tun?

That sentence calms my concerns with Mozilla, though it’s a little confusing given the stance they tried to posture.

Ffs finally. “Experimental” my ass, also - it’s not a new thing, zypperoni has it.

On old Plasma versions (Debian) the Lock Screen manager would crash pretty much every week until I upgraded to the latest release.

“Are [mainframe OS, non-flagship/consumer OS] [consumer device] ready in [Current Year]?”

Not to be an asshat about it, but this is what the title reads to me. I’d love a Linux mobile distribution, but really what that’s asking for is: optimized mobile driver kit for an open hardware platform, and the ability to manufacture them at an economy of scale to deliver quality without paying out the ass for. I feel like this is difficult because that development time required to have a stable software and the hardware itself would require tons of money, so one would have to be sacrificed since FOSS devs don’t really have a lot of money… since they do it for free.

I watched some old Minecraft let’s play a while back and I think it’s gone forever now. Really wish I had somehow downloaded a copy before it just bleeped out.

this is actually the default behavior for zypper!

With 64GB all I can think of is a lot of memory for street map routing (OSRM). Otherwise, homelab it.
