Fair points.

The biggest motivating factor for my use case was that it was more than happy to run off a USB C cable tapped into my solar bank’s 12v line. So for boondocking, it was a great solution.

I can confirm that the one I used 3 years ago could stream Netflix and HBO from browser, no problem. It also handled local files in VLC like a champ.

I even installed Steam and played a handful of non-resource-intensive games on it.

I’d buy another in a heartbeat for use as media rig. This time I’d install barebones Debian on it, instead of med-weight MX like I did prior. It’d probably perform even better.

There are some really wicked PC “sticks” (for lack of better word) available these days. I used one from MeLE flashed with Debian as a mobile entertainment center in my travel trailer.

After I switched and got used to a tiling WM, it’s really painful to have to use a floating one.

My assumption was also that they meant Core2Duo, or “2M cache”

Overruled.

I don’t disagree, I was just commenting from the angle of how enthusiastic many are about ThinkPads.

I don’t know too much about Chromebooks myself, so I look forward to the banter in order to learn more.

Hot take. 🍿

In my case root partition is encrypted, and the keyring has to be unlocked every time you reboot.

I use a luks encrypted USB drive for automated backups. My backup script mounts and decrypts the drive automatically, using secret-tool to grab the encryption pass from my keyring. It then creates the snapshots, and automatically unmounts the drive after.

There might be better methods, but this one works well for me.

If you bring a book, I’ll sign it.

Like, any book?

“I use arch so you don’t have to.”

The unhappiest people always want to tell you how to live your life.

Rage baiting, and not the light-hearted harmless kind. Best just report, block, and move on.

Most of those sites and apps are ad and malware ridden cancer.

Your techno-political memes are confusing the terminally regarded folk.

Also, please start posting these in !funhole@lemmy.sdf.org to help us cultivate normie downvotes.

That’s fair.
