That's nice for the EU folks, elsewhere Microsoft has doubled down on this practice.

I recall playing the tutorial. Never went online. Dial up sucked. Interesting tidbit, if you shoot your drill instructor at the range you're dropped into a prison cell at Fort Leavenworth. All you can do from that point is listen to somebody whistling and drag a tin cup across your cell bars.

I really hope Ladybird is able to eventually become a strong alternative browser engine to Chromium.

I don't blame anyone, there is no need to personally see the circus that is our country currently. Watch the circus from stands unless you want to be a part of it.

AMD, easily. Its literally plug and play. You can even pick some second hand options for cheap that are still solid for gaming such as the vega 56/64 and the RX 5700XT (which is I use). Intel isn't bad so long as you're not playing the newest stuff, my Arc a750 is solid in games like Fallout 4 and Elden Ring. Starfield is complete mess on it. Another thing with Intel is you'll need a distro with a 6+ kernel to get the most out of it.

I use Olauncher, pretty similar to Niagara and is FOSS. https://github.com/tanujnotes/Olauncher

It appears only one of the toilets has TP

I really wish, they would release a gaming oriented vertical mouse. High DPI sensor, good clicker switches, etc. Right now stuck with my Logitech lift that tops out at 4000 dpi and has mushy switches.

For me it was partially Windows 10 placing suggested apps and ads in the UI. The other part was just curiosity. After some distro hopping I landed on Mint, then Fedora and finally Arch where I've been for about two or three years.

That stat is wild, reading is such a foundational skill in today's world.

Just to be an absolute rebel; Solus

This was the first version of Doom I played, scared the hell out of me as a child. I recall telling some classmates I played Doom and how frightening it was. They were completely puzzled by my description of it, it wasn't till much later I played vanilla Doom on PC and saw the differences. Such a good port and really shows how flexible dooms setting and gameplay are.

Windows phones were really solid, OS was very user friendly and stable. I personally didn’t feel the “app gap” that a lot of others complained about but, I use my phone for browsing, calls & text. If I recall correctly it was also ahead of the curve with PWAs, integrated them really well. And price/performance was good on some models like the Lumia 650.

I did not know hypo caused that, I’ve been trying off and on for years to drop weight. I was diagnosed years ago. I did see my weight go up but I assumed it was because I left the service and wasn’t doing PT regularly anymore. I’ve been stuck at -16lbs for months now. Awesome to hear that, might peruse a similar angle myself now.

I've been installing Aruba switches at several locations throughout my company and don't have any complaints. Can't speak on the cloud features as I do not use them. GUI is fine, it allows me to do what I need.

Everything is on Windows, I did initially try to run Fedora Kionite but the freeRDP didn't seem to have the level of device redirection as Windows. I'm using the built-in Windows RDP solution to do this at the moment. Essentially all the audio equipment soundboards, mic, etc are connected back to the remote computer via CAT5/6 cable so the thinclient is there to allow them to control the remote computers and keep noise out of the studio. I appreciate your response.

Have you checked the XDA forums for any other ROMS?

I was so surprised to have this running day one, just had to switch to proton hotfix and it was off to the races!

Nice, I’ve also thought of installing PFsense on it and using it as my home router. But that seems like kind of waste of its potential. It’s perfectly sized for that purpose though.

I had this hunt earlier this year myself; ended up going with the Acer Nitro 5 15. Its fully user upgradeable with DDR4 RAM, two m2 drives and even a 2.5 in drive. And it has a TB3 port for charging and works with external graphics as well. Everything worked under linux right out of the box.
