I've used KDE on a Thinkpad T60, it's about 17 years old, has 3GB of RAM, and a Core Duo. It ran surprisingly well. Replacing the HDD with a SSD can also make a noticeable difference, so you should consider that if you haven't already. I also turned off a lot of the animations and effects for better performance.

I took a programming class in highschool, so I know some BASIC. Not that I've ever used it since then.

I live in Florida (unfortunately). Cows are pretty common in my region.

CTGP-7 doesn't care if you cheat in Monster Hunter Stories. Cheat plugins are designed to only work with specific games and won't affect other games. If you need more information you should ask on the official thread on GBAtemp.

In my experience, it's idependently unless updating breaks a version dependency on another package. In that case pacman won't update anything until the issue is resolved. I think I've only ever had this happen with AUR packages.

Jet Set Radio

It's through Proton, but the game runs flawlessly. Do note that you're really going to want a controller for this one. Playing this with a keyboard is a miserable experience. Another thing is that there's an unofficial tool for importing images over your custom graffiti, but it's for Windows and I've never tried it with Wine.

Someone made a flowchart on what to play after finishing the series.

If you're willing to check out non-RPGs, then I highly recommend Star Tropics (which is on the flowchart). The best way to describe it as a cross between MOTHER (setting) and The Legend of Zelda (gameplay). An interesting thing to note is that Star Tropics is a first-party Nintendo game that's never been released in Japan despite being developed there.
Another thing is that there's a point where you'll need to get a password off of the Internet. The game originally came with a letter from the protagonist's uncle that contained the password, which would only be revealed by dipping the letter in water.

I would have probably died at birth. The story I heard was that the doctor's pregnant mistress showed up, they got into a fight, and he was so pissed that he left in the middle of his shift. He eventually came back, but by then I had already swallowed amniotic fluid. I ended up spending a few weeks in another hospital after that.

Open source e reader (lemmy.ml)

I recently got a Sony prs 600 e reader from 2009. The battery is at the end of its life (It lasts about 3 days with heavy reading, and a couple weeks without reading). No backlight, no Wi-Fi, just an SD card that I can load epub files and small PDFs. The screen is slow and the contrast isn’t the best. The “touch screen” is...

The closest I can offer to what you're asking for is that there are some e-readers that use Android. I own a Boox Page, which is one of those, and I'm happy with it. Boox products are a bit on the pricier side, but they do offer features that can be difficult to find on other manufacturers' offerings, such as a micro SD slot.

I'm originally from Long Island where we have a cursed lake. The story as it was told to me was that a Native American "princess" fell in love with a man who was either from a rival tribe or was a colonist (it varies on who's telling the story). Her father disapproved of the man and they had to meet in secret. Unfortunately, while crossing the lake to see her one night he ended up downing. In her grief she cursed the lake to take the life of of a man every year. Some variations of the story also have her committing suicide.

As a child (like 3-4) I would watch the same movie every day for months. I assume this is an autism thing. In other words, I've probably seen Space Jam over a hundred times. Other movies I've seen way too many times include Babe and Toy Story.

My sister uses her second monitor maninly for Discord, but sometimes it's art references or game guides.

There's a homebrew app called ftpd that you could use, but it only works on a hacked system and that requires an SD card reader to initially setup.

The story I heard was that they were both named after a friend of Gene Roddenberry made during WWII that he was unable to get in contact with after the war.

New details revealed from FAA audit of Boeing’s 737 MAX production. Dozens of issues found (www.seattletimes.com)

A six-week audit by the Federal Aviation Administration of Boeing’s production of the 737 MAX jet found dozens of problems throughout the manufacturing process at the plane maker and one of its key suppliers, according to a slide presentation reviewed by The New York Times....

From what I know, what's going on now is entirely a Boeing thing.

It might be something like Qantas 72 where a fault in a component that supplies vital data to the flight computer caused two uncontrolled drops which resulted in over 100 people getting injured.

"The average person gets 3 vaccines a year" factoid is actually just a statistical error. The average person gets 1 vaccine per year. Vaccine Georg, who lives in Germany and gets 89 vaccines a year, is a statistical outlier and should not have been counted.

I did the math. He got an average of 7-8 vaccines per month, which came out to about 89 per year for the 29 months he's been doing this.

There was also Philippines Airlines 434 where components for a bomb were hidden in the culprit's shoes and then assembled on the plane. The plane managed to land safely, but one passenger was killed by the explosion and a number of others were injured.

Question about side effects of region unlocking

With 3ds/2ds prices still through the fucking roof, I have been looking at some Japanese models, since their price tags are slightly less crippling to look at. Unfortunately, I can’t speak Japanese, and I haven’t regularly used a 3ds since the release.of NSMB2, so id like to have it in English so I can navigate without...

To answer your question about system updates, it's almost always safe to update and there's no reason not to update as long as your CFW (Luma) is fully updated. System updates are only an issue on OFW, since the updates are basically just for patching the exploits used to get CFW in the first place.

As for the limitations of region changing, The Guide has that covered on their page for the process.

Another really important thing is that you should never follow any guide other than the one I previously linked. You especially should not follow a video guide because they get outdated very quickly and may promote old and/or unsafe methods of hacking the console.

Dreamcast ads got real weird. I vividly remember this one ad for Seaman: It showed a pair of feet and a fish tail sticking out from under a blanket. The accompanying text was "I will not mate outside my own species " repeated several times.

The aviation nerd in me wants everyone to know that's actually a picture of a completely different plane. I'm pretty sure that's a Douglas C-47 Skytrain.

(Sorry I don't have a funny comment to add.)
