Is Damn Small Linux still around?

Sadly, no. One was in production and was pretty stable, but suffered performance issues (at least for me? But an S21 Ultra really shouldn’t have performance issues) and now the Dev has gone inactive…

I mean, you can’t neglect the prior 2 PlayStation generations. Gran Turismo started on ps1 with the first two, and the next two on PS2. Besides that, great entries like the first three Spyro games, Jak and Dexter, Ratchet and Clank… And let’s not forget just home much freaking staying power the PS2 had! Was still getting new games alongside Wii, Xbox 360, even the PS3

As a link to a different website, at least. This one links to imgflip

I sure love that The Muppets are embracing solar energy…

That’s annoying. Part of the reason for local media is reducing the amount of monthly bills

What’s the state of apps like kodi or other methods of local streaming on Apple TV?

Ever since that switch, I’ve just straight up used a discord bot. Hasn’t failed me yet!

While you’re not completely incorrect about it not being Linux’s fault, trying to gatekeep “anywhere outside of Steam support” is just as unhelpful as game developers not focusing on Linux.

Does that same logic extend to not-Steam’s ProtonDB, a 3rd party website for tracking how well games play on Linux using Proton?

In addition to rsync as phx mentioned, you can use photorec to get a deeper scan

Yeah, this straight up happened to a dude I was rather fond of. We were working in desktop support for a big fintech company, and he used his not-quite-admin privileges to bypass the bootlock on the laptops for personal use. I warned him that it was a bad idea, he brushed it off. Was gone by the next week.

That joke kinda sailed over your head there, mate

The only thing play protect has done “for” me lately was remove file access to Poweramp the day after I got it. Fuck Play Protect.

You mean we shouldn’t blindly trust random, almost entirely anonymous, users giving out executables to be run on the very same devices we do banking and important life paperwork on? Say it ain’t so!

God that’s accurate. Or how telling your phone to launch Kodi on the CCwGTV, it showing you feedback that recognizes the name (eg “Launch Kodi on Main Google TV”, but still coming back with, “I can’t do that”

You’re just launching an Android app! Don’t give me that bullshit!

With how Google marched backwards on cloud storage since the turn of the decade, GMail is getting even less promising. Once my wife and I finally move out of here, I’m going 100% self hosted, setting up my own email server, et al
