I have 2 “smart” tvs. IMHO I don’t connect them to the internet.
Use a device (, pi-running Plex or kodi?)

“For the children “ …. Like none of them have ever heard bad words…. They must be protected at all cost.
Like a person who likes to grab them by the pussy…
You’re self hosting and then sharing the files via tor?
While I appreciate that these benchmarks matter to someone; I’m more interested in hey it runs and is reasonably supported, not requiring hand rolling any config
Hey this XX runs fine.
Did Sir want their slice of landlord rare? And with or without mint sauce on the side…
Thanks. I’m aware of the actual lifespan.
/s
I must have dropped that…
With the lack of moisture and high sodium, the hamburger is immortal; the fridge will suffer a circuit board failure when the power goes out; and those trucks are designed to be planned obsolete in 5 years
So hell if I know. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Kinda yeah. Like many things it is complex.
Back in the day… I was so chuffed when MS released 95, and 98 and was amazed at 2000.
But yes 8 was a horror show, and to that point— is anyone excited about a new release?
When there is really nothing wrong with XYZ machine running 10; but it is not supported in 11 and your EOL on 10; yeah there’s nothing compelling me to want a new computer
MS for a short while was or seemed happy for people to use 365 , but to me it seems like they are just shitting on windows as an os.
I hear you.
Being able to search and read was the hardest part (read as not at all difficult)
99.9 % of my computer usage is FF and libreoffice.
Other than (maybe) initial setup there is nothing stopping “your mom” from being able to have Linux as a daily driver.
Microsoft is for some reason $$$$ shooting them selves in the foot they seem hell bent on making windows unusablely crappy. Oh look enshitification.
Tee hee. Maybe you could go to Circuit City?
Sorry.
Doing no research, you might find a third party book that has a cd dvd ?
Prices? Or am I dumb again, and just not seeing them?
Correct.
They are in charge and are going to do everything to keep it that way.
As you said.
Actually- yeah.
Perception is reality; while hardcore nerds are willing to roll their own distributions, there’s a reason Ubuntu is damn popular. Most normal people want their computers to work, and to have an easy discoverable ecosystem.
So yeah. A Big deal
Yep. I’ve got a different insurance, but yeah I have a very expensive med , where I can only use their pharmacy-by-mail. So I have to deal with this same shit.
Sorry yeah. MacBook Pro.
It does what I need to do my job. I’ve got all the terminal tools. SSH ping nmap. MS makes a great Remote Desktop app And the built in screen sharing works great for VNC. SO. YEAH
I would not ask at the interview… I’d wait until after you’re hired…
I’m not a programmer; but a system administrator. 4 Linux and 250 windows 1 Mac; In our org. I’ve run off a MBP for 17 years now. And not had any push back when I requested it, just said I’d prefer a then 15” now 16” MBP.
Good luck
Longer lasting I think; leave it powered on and warm.
Best in reality; buy 3 drives, and after you do a backup move one off site.
3-2-1-1
DO NOT install a second M.2
Use the external drive
If the internal drive is in there, you could be asked at work to turn it in. It is not a good look to ask to remove an internal drive.
Okay ELI5
X11 is a win doing system. It is old and has been around for years.
Wayland is a new one.
They both are the core that a gui sits on.
Wayland has some great new stuff but some people don’t like change
Done. Honestly it was one of the first that popped in other than roll your own…
I like Plex Ymmv
