Running xfce4 Fedora brilliantly on an old Dell Chromebook thanks to this, fully recommended!!

And yet they couldn’t extend the same courtesy for me when they raised my grandfathered family plan

That’s annoying. Part of the reason for local media is reducing the amount of monthly bills

What’s the state of apps like kodi or other methods of local streaming on Apple TV?

This makes me feel like Jeremy Clarkson was on to something in the Top Gear Burma special (if just slightly off)

While you’re not completely incorrect about it not being Linux’s fault, trying to gatekeep “anywhere outside of Steam support” is just as unhelpful as game developers not focusing on Linux.

Does that same logic extend to not-Steam’s ProtonDB, a 3rd party website for tracking how well games play on Linux using Proton?

In addition to rsync as phx mentioned, you can use photorec to get a deeper scan

Yeah, this straight up happened to a dude I was rather fond of. We were working in desktop support for a big fintech company, and he used his not-quite-admin privileges to bypass the bootlock on the laptops for personal use. I warned him that it was a bad idea, he brushed it off. Was gone by the next week.

I mean, I imagine a primary reason is also that the mainline distros don’t use it by default, necessitating one to look for “spins/flavors/whatever” that use it instead.

I’ve been seeing both recently. I’ve opted to err on the same side and just make it clear when I’m talking about spinning rust versus solid state.

It’s worth mentioning that HDMI CEC is spotty on Kodi. I’ve had no problem with it on a Pi or CCwGTV, but if you try to convert a desktop or laptop into a media center PC, chances are the HDMI output won’t do CEC, and you’ll need an adapter (further reading: https://kodi.wiki/view/CEC#CEC-capable_HTPCs)

I mean, it’s pretty much required in school. I had about 5 presentations each grade from late elementary through the end of high school

I had straight up just never considered that terminal file explorers existed. This post has opened my eyes, and so here is my Saved comment. (Maybe one day, kbin will implement saving without commenting…)

Holy shit. The only time I’d be ok with my carrier doing that would be if I didn’t have to pay them a single fucking dime. You don’t get to double dip, carriers. You’re already over charging for data use.
