I’m lazy too!

Gentoo stable scratches that itch quite effectively.

Front loading though, that’ll take some work!

I’m a social worker, not a CS major.

Firefox, binaries.

Benefits, community and flexibility.

Basically what OP is asking for, yes?

Gentoo, honestly.

The community is much more friendly, the system is probably more arch than arch. The downside is compiling, but big packages have binaries now, and small packages build and install just about as fast as a binary distro.

Good hunting!

Something to try:

Boot into a Linux liveUSB environment. Then, chroot into your Linux partition (you can use Gentoo’s chroot instructions from their handbook).

Once inside the chroot, reinstall your boot loader (grub or systemd).

I have a suspicion that Windows had its way with your boot partition.

And give them a home…

I tried Ubuntu on a laptop, and when i saw the Amazon logo, I did a double take. I actually got a bit dizzy, and had to evaluate what I had just done.

Shame on me though, because I installed Ubuntu on a vps, and got spam in my ssh session. “Get Ubuntu pro now!”

Sigh.

Closer to anarchy, seemingly.

Inappropriate to compare with governmental organizations. Differing goals.

It’s not a virtual machine. It’s an operating system running directly on your hardware from a drive. The drive just happens to be a USB stick.

I’ll take this space to further the recommendation to get a cheap machine with which to experiment.

It’s what I did for my business. I needed to keep a Windows laptop for client side interactions.

It’s somewhat ugly, but journal++ works well.

My understanding is that ‘halt’ had been an alias for ‘halt -p’, but that changed recently. -p tells the command to power off. Without it, it just shuts down process.

halt -p

I may, but I can’t see it! 😉

This looks like a similar but different problem. https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/slackware-14/dual-monitors-blank-screen-on-one-when-using-displayport-error-clock-recovery-failed-4175744481-print/

It seems most likely a GPU driver issue. I run Ubuntu on servers mostly, and have never used a Radeon card.

Good luck!

I did a search, and discovered articles pointing to sending addicts to farms. I couldn’t find anything similar for neurodivergent people.

Can you link something?

Thanks! Downloading now.

To be |TRUE| you’ll need some hardware that is mostly open. I believe the Asus C201p is quite close.

Nostalgia is a potent drug.

Reality is a bummer. 😉

I learned on manual typewriters in middle school (late 70’s, early 80’s). We learned to look for our home row, then pay attention to copy or dictation.

I’m 59 now, and a cancer survivor. Also a man.

I look back to the me in my twenties, and think what an ass I was. Not as a man, but as a human.

The positive aspect? I’m not that ass anymore, and my hope is in another ten years I’ll see the current me as an ass.

Introspection and personal growth as a human. Sex or gender agnostic.
