16 gb of non-upgradeable ram seems a little light, but I’m not familiar with RISC. I would like to get one to play with tho.

candlewood suites, never had a bad experience.

Thanks for that. Almost all the software I use is open source, and honestly I don’t pay close enough attention to what the license is. I should probably read up on them, but I’m not profiting off them either and I try to contribute where I can.

Quick question, does Meta ever not lie about their products?

Can you elaborate on that? I don’t really follow him that closely. I thought he was the guy that fights for right to repair.

Boeing is the industry in the military-industrial-complex. Commercial jetliners are an ancillary product for them.

If they censored it like they did pornhub then how would all the right wing States get their propaganda?

I wonder what direction the Linux kernel will go once he’s gone. Obviously it will continue to go on and Torvalds should get a statue somewhere if he doesn’t already have one.

Wow, Larson was a visionary.

Man home assistant is such a rabbit hole. You start with automating a smart light then three years later your soldering your own custom ESP32 with a total organic volume sensor to automatically turn on the bathroom fan.

Lineage OS user here, my banking app got an update a while ago that stopped trusting my finger scanner because I’m rooted. Luckily it still allows passwords or else that would be a deal breaker.

*Edit, now that I think about it I’m not even rooted, just an unlocked boot loader.

Post-it notes on the monitor.

Totally agree on Microsoft having a vested interest with being the US Gov main software provider and the spend a lot to keep it that way

I know what some of those words mean. Looks cool dude, I bet it’s satisfying to type on.

While I don’t have much experience using nixos as a hypervisor I do have a few years experience using Proxmox on top of Debian. Managing multiple VMs and backups are very straightforward with Proxmox. As for your daily driver VM, the skies the limit, well mostly your HDD space is the limit. I’ve realized that after trying a ton of different distros the only real difference is the package manager and the preinstalled software.

Embrace, extend, and extinguish Microsoft’s gonna do what it does.

I assume you want disk encryption on Windows which is why you haven’t turned off bitlocker and disabled it in BIOS. I’m not familiar with whole disk encryption on Windows but Linux has many options.

If you’re going to dual boot I would recommend a separate boot partition for GRUB/boot manager that points to the windows boot partition because Windows likes to mess up a shared boot partition.

I’m making stuffed COD and roasted veggies. https://cookingwithcurls.com/2013/06/05/shrimp-crab-stuffed-cod-good-wine/

That’s what I was wondering. Seems like a recipe for disaster having your main system be several versions behind them shoehorning bleeding dependencies for AUR programs into the mix.

I’ve messed up my system so many times over the years that now I think I secretly get excited when it accidentally happens. Maybe I’m a masochist, but I actually enjoy trying to understand what went wrong. A USB stick with a light weight Linux distro and chroot you can usually get back in there and look around at the damage.
