You can do a lot of things.

Depending on your use case and curiosity you will eventually hit the boundaries of the sandbox, because as you said it is not quite Linux.

I was expecting Comic Sans.

Stargate SG1, a beer, some nachos and nobody else home.

I’m old enough to remember UML (User Mode Linux). I don’t know if it’s still around, but it was a port of the Linux kernel that you would run as a standard user binary.

I had an old Sony Vaio that I used as a home lab for a while. You can run some docker containers for Pi-Hole, Jellyfin or Home Assistant.

To crush my enemies, see them driven before me, and to hear the lamentation of their women!

Just checked, my local llama.cpp instance is still up. No, you can’t use it.

Legendary. Bear in mind that a lot of The Pogues’ lyrics are about getting hammered.

I see what you mean, and I have that (old PC with a bunch of 2.5" HDDs formatted as ZFS).

For me power consumption is more important than performance, so I’m looking for a lower power solution for photo sharing, music collection and backups.

Just another reason not to buy earbuds. You are sticking a fairly large amount of power inside your ear.

I care enough that the words “I care a lot” trigger a song from Faith No More to start playing in my head.

I’m ready for the return to webrings.

Someone should start digging.

I’m surprised at how much more methodic and organized I’ve become. Taking notes to get thoughts out of my head helps me reduce brain clutter.

Turning chores into pleasurable activities (podcasts while cleaning or cooking) also helped.

I’ve also grown more patient with other people’s actions. People don’t usually act with malice, more often it is just plain inability.

Also, very little fucks remain to be given.

Thank you, that was a good read.

My opinion is that YouTube became an unusable mess, and I avoid it as much as possible. I guess that’s enshittification at work.

Bingo.

Go fight for the health system you deserve instead.

If third world countries can have decent basic universal health systems, why is it so hard for you guys?

That’s how you level up in Linux. You break things, learn what you did wrong and do better next time. Linux won’t hold your hand, you can and will shoot yourself in the foot.

You are doing it right by having backups and playing it safe. You’ll be ok.

I laughed.

I’m also drunk.

So either the joke is good or I’m easily amused right now. I’d say it’s both. Good work.
