Confused. Which community do you mean the NYTimes, become-me, or shitjustworks ?

I have considerably more characters than 6 at lloyds

Try Mint or popOS. Ubuntu is getting very microsofty themselves

GUI is primary, a few clicks in the same app that you do your normal day to day updates in when a major release comes out.

There is a command line version but the gui is a doddle, and there’s no driving reason to use the CLI - it’s a distro aimed at beginners

No. Both day to day patches and major upgrades are done through the update manager app

Mint & popOS are both Debian tree distros and Ubuntu derivatives without the snap cruft.

They work fine for gaming in my experience as any linux native game is always tested against ubuntu and I’ve had no issues with Steam/proton for windows games.

No EAC anti cheat compatability for Linux of any flavour of course.

What’s your discord issue ? It’s been working fine for me for years

Most common reason is running out of disk space. Boot from USB and have a check as to whether the update filled up the disk

Same as it’s ever been. Israel is the only Middle eastern country the USA considers a reliable ally. No I’m not taking a position whether that is true, but that’s the perception. It’s not the only reason, but it’s a big one.

My motherboard which is only a few years old (2ish?) has serial port pin outs.

Am lawyer, “beyond reasonable doubt” is for criminal charges. “Balance of probabilities” is for civil cases ie where jail is not a penalty option.

Defamation is civil.

You don’t need to give the VM network access to download the software if you have a linux host. You can directly mount a virtual box drive from the host, copy the file(s) onto the drive and then unmount it and start the VM as per normal.

Search for qemu-nbd iirc (network block device) - I have the how to details saved on my host (ie not on me) so ping me if you want them. Note it’s a qemu app that works for vbox

Given the entire governance structure of the BBC and many of the senior managers have been stacked with Tory cronies over the last decade I don’t think that’s still true.

Much better

At that age cpu it’s almost certainly a hard drive not ssd.

My guess is 1-2 days. 4gb RAM is going to thrash like hell

Could be worth asking on selfhosted (how do I link a sub on lemmy ?) They probably have more relevant experience at this sort of thing.

Edit

Does this work ?

TL;DR don’t bother

Like one of those recipe blogs where you wade through 10,000 words about the cook’s relationship with their nonna before getting to the recipe, the author very verbosely talks about peripheral issues at length before you get to the recipe.

Except there is no recipe.

There’s an edit at the end which summarises to “just google it”

Well there’s 5 minutes of my life wasted.

This post crashes me if I scroll down

Thank you

What is the difference between type 1 & 2 please ?
