Sure Elon. Here, have another hit of ketamine.

Using a machine like this just as a NAS is a bit of waste. It’s a full blown PC that would work very nicely as a home server for Jellyfin etc. The RAM will limit the utility, though.

The solution is to learn a new language. Then, whatever accent you have in that new language, that is your first language. I’ve noticed this with Canadians a few times. They’d speak English like you’d never think it was anything but their first language, but when they spoke German, they had a French accent.

Yeah, I think the biggest obstacle to wider adoption of Linux is the lack of availability of devices that come with it installed. As long as you can’t buy a Linux PC at Best Buy & co, it will always be somewhat niche. Pretty much anyone can use Linux these days but installing it is just too much of a hassle for the average user.

Git gud n00b!

/s, of course.

I’ve come across this kind of response a few times on here and elsewhere, but I think it’s nowhere near as prevalent as it’s sometimes made out to be.

Wow. Just wow. What a bunch of utter darlings. Just let them stew in their own idiocy.

Edit: To clarify, I mean the people who wrote this readme.

Mint is the distro for people like you and me. Minimal hassle, just works. No need to muck around with it.

Yeah that’s just so dumb. Also, i wouldn’t be comfortable with the OS on eMMC storage. That’s hardly known for reliability. So close and yet so far.

One is about shagging your computer and the other one is about making it prettier. Duh.

The difference between intelligent and stupid people is that intelligent people know that they don’t know a lot of things but stupid people think they know everything.

Pick something up and put it in its place. Then do it again.

Because they wanted bombs.

Sure, buddy.

Yes, at least for the Europeans that is very much the case. The Germans, for instance, were always morally appalled by the more overtly violent aspects of US Imperialism, but were perfectly happy to hide under their coattails and let them do the dirty work. The deal was that Europe world accept US hegemony in exchange for military protection. Nobody could ever imagine that the US would just rip up that deal because it will definitely hurt them more than everybody else.

All nuclear programs were started for military purposes. “Civilian” nuclear power has always been a fig leaf. While the current Chinese thorium effort is a break from that tradition, it’ll be far too late to make any impact.

Blaming capitalism for every evil in the world is just dumb. Surely Stalin and Mao started their nuclear programs because of capitalism?

I’m sure they’re thinking about it. Anyone who buys one of those deserves no better.

It’s certainly not very user friendly in the initial setup. It took me quite a while to figure out how to set it up. But once that’s done, it works very well.

I tried the YouTube app exactly once. Since then my TV doesn’t have an internet connection any more.

Just don’t connect it to the internet.
