I much enjoyed it back in the day. Nokia even had their own app store for it and gave a nice financial incentive for the first hundred or thousand apps.

I feel Jolla & SailfishOS is the spiritual successor.

Depends on your setup. I'm a btrfs guy, so I'd go with something similar as your other reply. It's just as easy to remove/replace/add drives. They don't even have to match in size. Just remember to balance after doing modifications to your array.

Whatever you get, get at least two and do RAID1/5/6. They will break.

Speed shouldn't be an issue for streaming media.

I use a PowerBook G4 running MorphOS.

My parents never bought me an Amiga when I was little, and I've been making up for it ever since.

Inspired by xkcd's thing explainer I generated a list of how often words appeared in subtitles on opensubtitles for my target language.

I whipped those into a database, added manual translation for the top-1000 and started quizzing myself with a tiny php script.

It was more fun to code than to actually quiz myself. I think I played the top-100 before I got bored.

Gee, I can't imagine why they chose to drop this bomb today.

It's like they wanted it to be drowned in other news.

The theorem holds true. The theorem states that the monkey has infinite time, not just the lifetime of our universe.

That's just lazy science to change the conditions to make sensational headlines. Bad scientists!

I'll keep that secret from her 😅

Three years ago, I bought my wife a laptop with Windows 10 to replace her 10yo windows 7 machine.

It had hardware issues out of the box, and went in on two repairs. It works fine now, AFAIK.

But, she still doesn't trust it, and she doesn't think that she can move her Adobe CS6 license over to it..

I even bought her the affinity suite.

I'm starting to think she'll never move on from Windows 7.

I think the major browsers stopped supporting it sometime during the last year, so my best hope is that some included certificates will eventually make her favourite websites stop working. That has to force her over to something more recent.. right?

I use arch, btw.

I bought one years ago. Maybe 2018? I think it's a kindle touch 8th gen, ad-supported. Cost me ~60€, ad-supported. It got jailbroken and KOReader installed. It has stayed offline since, so those ads have long since expired.

It gets the job done. I've never been in the amazon e-book ecosystem, and I don't want to be licensing my books at their mercy.

Standardized firmware isn't something that's specified in the ISA, is it? It's just shitty phone manufacturers.

Asus had some x86 phones a few years back. I haven't dug into them, but I doubt they had a full bios/efi.

pine64 arm devices have u-boot, while a bootloader does fullfil a subset of the uefi spec.

Integrated GPU is not a dirty word anymore.

AMD's system-on-a-chips with RDNA2/3 pack almost the same punch as the discrete cards with the same architecture. See steamdeck as the prime example, but there's quite a few boards, boxes and laptops with the same.
