If the laptop supports dual drives (not unheard of but not the norm) it’s way safer to dual boot from different physical drives.

Whatever OS you choose make sure they have a guide for dual-booting. Any Linux OS should be capable of dual-boot but not all will support that configuration equally.

As a failsafe I would also make a rescue USB, especially SystemRescue because of the findroot option.

If all cables were created equal then it’s kind of a big deal that laptops can now charge via USB-C. Proprietary chargers can suck my ass.

Expanding rural broadband access is a necessity if we want to scrape back the country from the fascists.

So it ain’t happening.

Probably not the most pressing issue but Civil Asset Forfeiture is one of the most egregious rights violations that is not only legal when used but extremely lopsided in its fairness against those who have effectively been robbed by the police.

I think his main “selling point” that’s a bit unique to the US is his hard stance on the southern border. Too many white people are afraid of us becoming another Latino/Hispanic country.

Didn’t notice The Streets in your top 100. It’s kind of in line with Gorillaz. My fave album of theirs: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Grand_Don’t_Come_for_Free

It looks nice but I’m sure they lean towards cool colors because they’re better at keeping you awake.

Or get off of X.

This may be the worst side effect. Trading efficiency AND accuracy for flexibility.

If Mars became one “arm” of the human race Earth would still be the heart. Your heart fails and all your limbs are fucked.

I rarely run out of candy so fuck it.

For real. I was so hopeful for the Type-1 and would’ve reserved one if I had the money.

Oh, you don’t have to ask.

I do this for free even!

Plug for “America’s Sweethearts” also starring Billy Crystal as well.

Haven’t bought an EA title in years and no regrets. It’s like donating to the GOP at this point.

Edit: I mean if DJT started a gaming company that’s EA.

I just installed the latest version of Debian on a 12 year old netbook. Just sayin.

What Windows 10?🖕🐧

Minus the spirits I’d probably enjoy kicking around the island from Oxenfree.

Again, capable of a lot but it’s best at configuration management. I like to use Ansible after I install an OS to do things like tweak SSH to be more secure, install Fish shell, set common environment variables and aliases, create a bin folder in my home directory, and clone down a bunch of custom scripts I have and a remote Git repository. You can do this kind of thing with a bash script also but with a well written ansible playbook you can run it over and over and it can fix configuration drift (in my example it could ensure my repository of scripts is up to date).

Using it on my latest install. Not bad. I mostly picked it for the visual aspects but I’m in the fence about it’s functionality. It feels like it takes more clicks than it should to open stuff.
