The question is so generic and open ended it’s not a surprise. The only filter on this is “runs well on ThinkPad” and “lightweight”, which are both up to interpretation
Can completely agree with the LMDE 6 recommendation
I decided on the basis of making my hardware last as long as I can, I chucked an i7-2760QM into my Latitude E6420 and 16GB DDR3 memory, shit actually runs flawlessly with LMDE. It even was able to run Windows Server 2022 in a VM while having me screen share said VM for an assignment I had.
I think that’s a Hermitcraft reference, and I did not expect to see that on Lemmy of all places.
If you look up Hermitcraft S6 rap battle I think there’s a segment where Xisumavoid (sometimes called X) raps that
Edit: Jesus Christ this is embarrassing
For the phone bit, I started off with really old smartphones like a Galaxy S1, but basically any old old phones are really built like mini laptops and are usually pretty modular as they weren’t often water resistant or actively anti-repair
However I fully get your point and fall into the same boat with cars
I’m not a big Twitter user to begin with, so I assumed based on the title that it was going to be similar to YouTube disabling the dislike counter.
This is making the list of posts you’ve “Liked” private. Saved you a click.
Personally I’d like this to be a toggleable feature like Reddit has (had?), but otherwise, yeah seems like an obtuse change, I don’t understand the why behind it.
Don’t threaten me with a good time!
I can usually read them, though issues can range entirely from nothing to entirely broken. I otherwise haven’t tried creating a .docx file on Linux (I would usually use .odf instead) and seeing how it renders in MS Office, but when it comes to an assessment I’d prefer not to test that.
I moved from Manjaro to EndeavourOS and was been pretty happy with that. Unfortunately my study mandates things like .docx files, Visio drawings, things that just are more clunky to do if I’m trying to do it under Linux, so I’ve been actually using Windows 10 on my daily driver.
However I have LMDE on a second machine which I have been pretty happy with, although I am more of an Xfce guy than Cinnamon.
I did pretty much exactly this on a Galaxy S1 (i9000) that was old even when I got it, but my uncle who gave it to me said that to make it usable I needed to install Cyanogenmod.
I thought I fully bricked the phone trying and it actually sat dormant for years afterwards until I re-found the Odin backups I had taken, and was able to fully fix and restore it. Unfortunately by that time, nearly no ROM existed that was both up to date and a usable speed.
I moved from Manjaro after a couple system updates just borked something like X11, but those happened over a 3 year course of using Manjaro.
As insightful as it is to find the root cause of a Linux problem like that, on my main system it was just not something I wanted to deal with or risk having right when I need the PC.
I looked at this at first and thought “What? 1.3 million? That’s crazy low what the heck” then I saw “in thousands” and I can’t help but agree.
Aussie chiming in: haven’t heard hands up before, might be a US thing
I’m not 100% in the loop on things they’ve done, but I think the main thing is that there are better alternatives out there such as Signal for keeping in touch with friends and family, but oftentimes those friends/family just don’t want to have yet another messaging app so it leaves you needing Discord to keep in touch.
Yeah, my iPhone 4s still has the last version it supported and with a tweak it still works fine. It still even has the random quotes submitted by users, which have been long gone now.
For me, I was a curious and inquisitive 15 year old that wanted to try out something different to Windows. I didn’t really have any gripes with Windows at the time, so I tried Ubuntu and it went from there. I mostly remember after that installing Xubuntu on everything because it was just so lightweight and to this day I still love Xfce.
I’ve got one of those cheap Rockchip rk322x TV boxes and it took me fucking literal hours to get the Mali driver working and the performance, while noticeably better, was still way worse than if I ran it’s stock Android image on it.
Ah, good old VGA brings the memories back
Basically that’s how I use it, just a secure VPN tunnel to my home hosted stuff while I’m out. Painless to set up.
My thoughts exactly seeing this post. Haven’t heard that particular rhetoric here before. Typing this from my Pixel 7a running GrapheneOS
