I haven’t seen these until much later
I didn’t get that far. And I only had an Amiga at that time, which made things more difficult to set up. I wonder how fluent transparency would be with AGA, haha. My next attempt was woth a PC around 2003 with KDE3 and it got me hooked.
I loved reading HOWTOs, they were a bit like scene zines, but the content wasn’t that helpful indeed
Contrary to other OSes, the information about it was mainly on the internet, no books or magazines. With only one computer at most homes, and no other internet-connected devices, that posed a problem when something didn’t work.
It took me weeks to write a working X11 config on my computer, finding all the hsync/vsync values that worked by rebooting back and forth. And the result was very underwhelming, just a terminal in an immovable window. I think I figured out how to install a window manager but lost all patience before getting to a working DE. Days and days of fiddling and learning.
Aren’t sysfs entries supposed to be created by kernel modules?

It’s a lifestyle, not a way to save money. I pay for piracy related tech more than a netflix subscription costs.
16·1 year agoXFCE, using it for over 10 years, not planning to change it unless the DE changes radically.
Xubuntu LTS. I’ve been meaning to switch to Debian Stable when something breaks, but it’s my third LTS on the desktop and 5th on the laptop and there was just no opportunity. I also learned to avoid PPAs and other 3rd party repos, and just use appimages when possible.
You can have a kernel from Testing or even Sid, I believe, but yeah, it’s what we want to avoid - tweaking.
LTS is released every 2 years, for reference.
A mandatory part at the beginning of every Ansible playbook!
No, no the brony kind of interesting
I keep a domain full of interesting files, it stopped being indexed some time between 2010-2015. I don’t think it’s just mine, I never see the “index of” pages in search results any more, unless I explicitly search for that phrase.
There’s a torrent on TPB as well as a 280GB of this stuff on archive.org
Looking it up and the ut’s all news like this:
NZBMatrix, a popular Usenet indexer, closed in 2012 due to a large takedown notice from Hollywood studios
Matrix? Are there some Matrix rooms with Linux ISO?
If you have a bit extra money, get a seedbox. Cheapest I’ve seen is €10/mo
Tough audience here, huh?
Have you tried checking what the bytecode does? Maybe it’s just a way to block detection by Microsoft and antivirus programs, by creating a different binary every time. Just because something isn’t written in a high level language doesn’t mean it’s malicious. But it may be.
