Have you paid for a service that uses AWS though? Youay never know if you've funded the big A.

There's plenty of privacy respecting non-proton options that don't involve trying to set up your own mail server.

They're not wusses, they were just biding their time to unveil their true selves.

It was built with AI, so articles will scream about it being a triumph of whatever engine made it.

It's very easy.

Chrome let's you do "install" websites to home screen, Firefox allows saving shortcuts to home screen.

The annoying thing is that you can't save them to the app drawer (at least on vanilla android), so if you have a clean home screen you have to sacrifice that.

I used it decades ago (using the CLI installer for a Sid install I eventually fucked up beyond repair) and it was okay for a slightly tech savvy teenager, even then.

I suspect a lot of these issues are down to hardware compatibility more than anything else.

Ditto, I used it on my eepc 701 way back when. I miss that sort of computing experience!

Bunsenlabs is the successor to crunchbang.

[–] ALiteralCabbage@feddit.uk 2 points 2 weeks ago

Crunchbang was amazing, but it's sadly no more. Development stopped on it some time in 2015 I think.

Bunsenlabs is a direct successor to it, and should be good on OP's system.

I love open worlds. I hate crafting. Just let me buy what I need; it feels more immersive to me. Same with games like the Assassin's Creed series - there's no way some fake Irish pirate is making leather holsters in his ships bedroom out of rabbit hide and bearskins.

And why does where you swipe down on the notification bar change what's shown?!

 

I have an old notebook which I've been toying with a few smaller distros on (typically easy to install, liveCD types), and while I enjoy the tinkering aspects of this, I had a thought that I've been mulling.

In the past I've run distributions based on larger, better supported, systems (Ubuntu, Debian, Arch, etc.) and if or when they have folded, like crunchbang did, or PeppermintOS (however briefly), I just changed them out.

However, if I were to go back to peppermintOS, say, would it be feasible to 'convert' the system to the parent distribution? So, could I force peppermintOS to 'become' Debian, for example? Or is this overly simplistic? It's a level of engagement with my operating systems that I just haven't had!
