I’m all seriousness, I was looking into this today, and stumbled upon this page. 9 Best Text Editors for the Linux Command Line obviously skip vim, neovim, and emacs. Hope it helps!

Yes, it’s vanilla flavored.

Does this help at all?

Try explicitly setting your DNS servers to either cloudflare (1.1.1.1 and 1.0.0.1) or google (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4) and see if that has any effect.

If that does not help, make sure you’re getting a good signal from your router. Move your PC and router closer together for testing purposes to rule out wifi interference.

Troubleshooting issues like that are often a matter of ruling things out as best you can to track down the cause.

If it ain’t broke…

I remember when 128MB RAM sticks were $400

Get off my lawn

I know the Windows vs Linux thing is like beating a dead horse, but I use both, and the Linux machine never gets slow like Windows does. Windows does so much crap in the background that you and I don’t need want or care about, and Linux just does what it’s told when it’s told. Give it a try if you’re feeling adventurous.

Now software bloat has caught up to the gains we’ve made in hardware and we’re back to it taking 15 seconds to load a word processor.

Honestly I print out anything my little kiddo does at school on his Chromebook, and some stuff has black backgrounds. I got tired of wasting toner so I made a script that would print a negative screenshot if it’s a dark image. One keystroke and I get what I want

When I press Super + PrtSc, a bash script performs the following:

Takes a screenshot of the entire desktop (import -window root) and saves it as ~/screenshot.png…

Analyzes the screenshot to calculate the “mean brightness” value of the image. It converts the image to grayscale and determines the average pixel brightness (a value between 0 and 1, where 0 is black and 1 is white).

Checks if the image is dark by comparing the mean brightness to a threshold of 0.2. If the mean brightness is less than 0.2 (i.e., the image is very dark), it applies a negative filter to the image (convert -negate), effectively inverting the colors (black becomes white and vice versa).

Sends the image to a printer (lp command) named MF741C-743C for printing.

That was a supremely enlightening explanation! I’m installing bluefin in a vbox to check it out and ordering a new SSD. Thank you!

Thank you very much for the recommendations! Out of curiosity, what are the benefits of using say bluefin over just plain fedora? I should also add that I prefer a long term support installation because I don’t reinstall very often. Thanks again

Yeah, “What the F does that mean?” Is the next line Michael says in the film Office Space 😌

What the f does that mean?

Looks like the common edition is outdated, but for the curious: https://wiki.astralinux.ru/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=37290417

If your local machine dies, and you have a backup on your phone which you cannot unlock… aren’t you screwed?

Where is the key stored?
