Mint is always a good starting point.

Don't use plain ubuntu, it uses snaps for a lot of stuff and it breaks many little things. Mint is based on ubuntu, but without involuntary snaps.

You should take a look at the available desktop environments: Cinnamom, XFCE and Mate for limux mint. Pick the one that looks nicest to you or cinnamon if you can't decide.

Also check out gnome and KDE, those don't come with mint but starting on a different distro isn't a problem.

Anyways, the distro doesn't matter too much. The differences apart from desktop environments (and snaps) are tiny.

No idea how to do this properly, but it's definitely possible. Maybe a USB to IDE adapter makes more sense than going through SATA as it can just expose the floppy drive as a USB stick.

But then again CD drives have been around for ages as well and work properly on linux, so do your research.

The steps will probably look like this:

• Autodetect when a floppy is inserted
• mount it (possibly combined with the first step)
• automatically run a script after mounting
• writing the script, which will read the contents of the drive and control your player (chatGPT should be able to do that for you with a bit of trial&error)

There are people who make backups and people who will.

It's the same thing with this: Even if it goes nicely most of the time, it'll eventually screw up everything and you'll be spending at least an hour figuring out what went wrong.

Sounds like there's something wrong with your windows EFI partition in that case.

I don't know how to fix that short of a reinstall. If you do reinstall, make sure to unplug (yes, that's actually neccessary) all drives except the one you want to install windows on, otherwise the installer is almost guaranteed to fiddle around with them despite you not selecting them.

Because their algorithm is pretty damn good at recommending relevant stuff. For example, titanfall 2 got revived and I found a lot of small youtubers (<20k subs) making some incredibly good content through it. The secret is to click "not interested" on all the clickbait crap often enough and at some point it'll learn.

Though I do use

Looks about like MIUI to me.

Is it a rewrite at least or just a rebrand like oneUI was?

The issue is that grub, the bootloader, doesn't know about windows and can't boot it. You can go into BIOS and change the boot order to boot windows without figuring this out as a stopgap.

I had to create /etc/default/grub as well on arch, so do that and rerun grub-mkconfig.

As usual, the arch wiki has a great but short guide on that: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/GRUB#Detecting_other_operating_systems Read the entire article to get an idea of how to work with grub, then follow the windows section exactly.

My 256GB SSD is full from just elite dangerous and my 512GB SD card is almost full as well.

I'll have to join you eventually.

Oh yeah, I forgot they replaced CSGO. That was a scummy move indeed given the game lacks those major features.

given that the lawmakers who enact crap like that are usually tech-illiterate, we at least have high chances of loopholes.

At this point, I instinctively disagree with anyone who tries to "protect the children" or "fight terrorism". I tried challenging that prejudice many times, but never had any success.

CS was quite shitty for quite a while before I quit. Now it looks like it's recovering, the CS2 launch went well (apart from server issues) so there's definitely a reason to have hope. At least with valve.

Titanfall 2 also recovered, but that was always a good game. I'll even say it's the best shooter ever made period.

I don't have any hope for any of this improving.

The EU is currently working on legislation to search through all chat messages sent by everyone ever, so the only way to keep any privacy is to take it into your own hands.

But that's how politics work nowadays. You need to assume that every group is homogenous and when someone from that group points out that it isn't, you call them a hypocrite.

That does look quite nice, the reviews talking about 4-5 hours of SOT on the non-pro scared me a bit.

I don't have a pixel yet, but my oneplus 8 uses 13%/hour with the screen on.

By the way, you gotta love accubattery. So much data from a simple app, I just wish it showed the averages over more than 14 days.

They shouldn't be required to keep selling it, but they should be required to strip it of any DRM when they do stop selling it.

That way everyone wins. They can get out of the market at minimal effort and players can still enjoy their games.

No, it's morally obligatory.

And that's what makes this bad. A game that's perfectly playable and even has a community is taken away by greedy Ubisoft. This should be illegal.

French 80s cars are the most 80s cars.

This is important. Some people just aren't aware of the massive privacy violations that are going on, so the education system should teach them and show how good FOSS is compared to crap like sharepoint.
