Hey, you can do a lot worse than Philip J. Fry (like Zoidberg or Zapp).

Is actually great since it forces you to learn which saves you much more time in the long run.

It is great when you have time to learn, but when you are trying to troubleshoot while understand basically nothing of the wiki … it is not good.

It is most comprehended, but for newbie it is too comprehensive. Its overwhelming, I tried to troubleshoot why I boot to black screen even the installation said its successful and there’s no error. I saw solutions that want me edit grub, edit xorg … and some other file that I never understand.

I understand the wiki is very good and very important, its just not newbie friendly.

NP, I guess I’ll just have to accept it (I only use it to convert ebooks to KFX format, it seems a bit overkill to have VM Windows just for that.)

Thank you for trying to help.

I am just testing things out, so I’m trying to install Kindle Previewer and Caesium image compressor. All install correctly, but crash upon execute.

This is the error for Kindle Previewer

A question regarding bottles, do I have to install dependencies in the settings? My exe all installed without error but can’t open.

Oneplus used to be good too,

On that note, Xiaomi also used to be good. In fact, xiaomi’s initial popularity is for the ease of unlocking and rooting. Once it gain popularity, it started to lock down, much like the path OnePlus is on.

A question, what tod do when the laptop is completely frozen, as in you can’t even move your mouse. Is the only solution to force shutdown?

I only use htop to kill process when it froze.

My kindle?

Can I have the github link for that one?

It has been a decade

I love my kindles. I got the Kindle 3 Keyboard (dead battery and dead pixel), 1st gen Kindle Paperwhite (scratched screen, uneven lights), and Kindle Voyage (cracked screen, otherwise is perfect).

I don’t really mind its a closed system, I transfer my books via calibre anyways.

I was on the same boat few days ago, I pulled out my 2010 CR48, Atom processor and 2GB ram.

I end up with Archlinux with xcfe DE, a tad slow but completely workable.
