What distro should I use on my potato?

I have an HP Stream 11 that I want to use for word processing and some light web browsing - I’m a writer and it’s a lightweight laptop to bring to the library or coffee shop to write on. Right now it’s got Windows and it’s unusable due to lack of hard drive space for updates. Someone had luck with Xubuntu, but it’s...

Junior dev:

Straight out of uni, know the latest developments while having also studied long established standards and specifications (like POSIX, LSB, SQL, etc), full of energy, and ready to speedrun burning out any %

Senior dev:

Hasn’t learned anything substantial in decades, uses outdated specs because “who got the time for that, and legacy stuff works just as well anyway”, copy pastes most of their work from stack overflow, is only still employed because of their inside information knowledge and the utter absence of documentation leading to a bus factor of one, and has perfected the art of gaming the system to the point of photoshopping a sloppy IDE screen over their WoW game whenever a picture of them “working” gets taken.

Yeah, checks out.

Seeing that I’m a senior dev, take it any way you want.

I feel cucked having google only get most of my traffic. I am an alpha male, I want them to get all of my traffic.

How about blackholing google to limit the damage instead? And you could limit it further by not using services that you know feed data to google.

I’m not one for labeling music in genres, so I’ll write my answer in two parts: the “canonical” information, with artists documented as “IDM” artists on Wikipedia, and the “personal” information, which I think fits the so called “IDM” genre, but don’t quote me on that, I wouldn’t really know. This is “best effort”.

Canonical answer:

Orbital, aphex twin, and boards of Canada come to mind, but that’s more for the curious casual reader of this thread, as I’m sure you already know them. Also John Tejada, Carbon Based Lifeforms, Moderat, which are less known.

Personal answer:

I dunno if I would say that they fit in “IDM”, but I really enjoy the music of the artist Siriusmo. Also (in no particular order, all this could be hit or miss for you, so don’t dismiss it all because you don’t like one) Sasha, Kaito, Ernest Saint Laurent, Vessels, Barker & Baumecker, and pretty much everything under the labels monkeytown and Kompakt (respectively based in Berlin and Koln). I’m not sure where the genre lines stop tho, so you might add Nick Warren, Phil k, Dave seaman, John Digweed, etc. to that. Labels renaissance (the British one) and Global Underground.

Thank you very much for this post. I’m glad someone did the effort of getting some of those and presenting them from the PoV of a first time experience. I was curious.

However, I’m not sure what you meant with:

BUT when I shared it with others, people in body reported less effectiveness due to thickness of skin and under-dermal stuff, so it’s better to test it if you aren’t skinny as a skeleton.

At first it sounds like you say that overweight people have trouble using them (which is logical, the device needs to touch the bones), but then you go on saying that it doesn’t work for underweight people? I’m confused. Could you please elaborate a little? Thanks 🙂

Oh. Yes, that makes sense. I read it too literally I suppose (“better to test” as in “better to give it a try”, while “better to try it first” was meant). 🤪 thank you! 🙏

The essence of that article can be summarised in:

  • The Streisand effect is helping the news outlets that meta censored.
  • We can all move away from meta, and they will essentially go away.

Honestly, if the makefile is well written, I will take that any day. Good makefiles are 😙👌.

They are extremely rare, tho…

I guess the solution would be a declarative language that compiles to makefiles. So that people don’t have to know the nitty gritty of writing good makefiles, and can just maintain a file of their dependencies and settings…

Nope, it is real. It is slang, but real. The actual phrasing is “avoir du lait sur le feu”. As in “Allez! J’ai du lait sur le feu!”. But it is rather outdated.

Last reference I was able to find was from the 60s.

I didn’t know if it is traveling, or if this is another.

They seem to be unrelated. (This one, as per the video (1:22), was inspired by “a similar exhibit in the US”)

¹ Repudiation in SimpleX Chat will include client-server protocol from v5.7 or v5.8. Currently it is implemented but not enabled yet, as its support requires releasing the relay protocol that breaks backward compatibility.

² Post-quantum cryptography is available in beta version, as opt-in only for direct conversations. See below how it will be rolled-out further.

Some columns are marked with a yellow checkmark:

  • when messages are padded, but not to a fixed size.
  • when repudiation does not include client-server connection. In case of Cwtch it appears that the presence of cryptographic signatures compromises repudiation (deniability), but it needs to be clarified.
  • when 2-factor key exchange is optional (via security code verification).
  • when post-quantum cryptography is only added to the initial key agreement and does not protect break-in recovery.

Cool, but it’s now impossible to submit anything, as the server is being DDOS’d. Not out of malice, mind you, there are just too many geeks out there, and this is a Sunday…

Still, one can read the titles of the already posted rooms with:

I had to read word by word to make sense of your drivel. At first, it seemed to be sarcasm, but reading “out their” convinced me otherwise. Lrn2English bruh.

For other readers that will find this comment: I’d have written a logical rebuttal explaining why the concentration of wealth, IP laws, predatory financial institutions, etc. make this flat out impossible; and how fair, true capitalism died under Nixon, but it would here be like casting pearls before swine.
