Dude just could have said something like,“Hey, I’m a developer of Plex and have really enjoyed my experience using it. Let me know if you’d like to see something added/fixed.”

I’m going to go with you being crazy. Although based on your mention of “deja vu” and the number “4”, I did see djview4. I don’t think that’s what you wanted though.

I can’t remember the last time I bought a PC. I just incrementally upgrade over the years. I would be disappointed if they came out with a PC that only ran with their flavor though.

That was my thought as well. I’m also thinking it might be a challenge to get something to read them in 100 years.

M-Disc?

My grandmother ran Linux for a couple decades until her death at 101 years old. My 80+ year old mom has been running Linux for at least 2 decades. Yes, I’m tech support, but I don’t really have to do anything. It just works.

I recently read Kernighan’s UNIX: A History and Memoir. It was pretty interesting. Also, Bell Labs still hosts a page with a lot of links/info for Richie at: https://www.bell-labs.com/usr/dmr/www/

There’s this: https://github.com/lextrack/Simple-Screen-Recorder

Disclaimer: I haven’t touched Windows in at least a decade.

I tried FreeBSD for several months about 15-20 years ago. I really liked how clean the filesystem and environment felt, and have suggested it for many people over the years. In the end I couldn’t get around their license vs GPL.

I edited my config, and it changed the font size next time I opened kitty. I’m not sure what is happening to you, other than maybe having the config file not where it’s expected.

Did you remove the # at the start of the font_size setting?

I’m sure you’ve seen it many times, but I love Bill Hick’s take on marketing.

Become comfortable with the command line. Learn the when and whys of using sudo. If you aren’t willing to do that, you may not want to stick with Linux. It can have a little bit of a learning curve in the beginning (nothing like what it used to be), but you should get more comfortable in a short time.

The only one I ever used was https://ltsp.org/ , but it’s been years, so I have no idea how it’s doing now. It was great for thin clients.

LFS of course.

It’s been some time since I used it on an old laptop, but Puppy Linux was very responsive on shit hardware.

I don’t think you’ll get anything that is a real drop in for Partiful.

When I have to. Either when Wayland does something that I can’t do with X11, or X stops being supported.

Gilles Castel (RIP) published a couple articles on taking math notes with Vim + LaTeX which I found eye-opening. In another article he posted about how he integrates Inkscape into the process. If you haven’t read the articles, they may be helpful for what you are doing.

Good points. I’ve run into similar situations with many topics. Human brains are freaking weird.
