Neverball.

So gaming on Linux is obviously amazing now, but back in 2006 or so when I started using it, it was less than great. I probably tried every single game in the Ubuntu repos and Neverball entertained the hell out of me.

I spent hours rolling this shiny ball around. I loved Marble Madness on NES as a kid, so it was a natural fit.

A close second was Freeciv, as I had also grown up with a copy of Civilization.

Honorable mentions to Nesticle and Snes9x.

I’m not a game dev, or really a dev at all, but I started writing a text adventure game called Weird Woods.

It’s because the potential customers for your product are asking about AI adoption. It’s become a box to tick for all of the non technical goofballs making decisions.

I’m reaching here because I don’t know the first thing about Mullvad, but it probably has some script that takes care of it’s own DNS needs. I remember the before times, when you had to write up and down scripts that would update resolve.conf directly, then configured OpenVPN to run them on connecting/disconnecting.

It’s possible it could be a box checked or config option in Mullvad that broke it by not fixing DNS on it’s way down?

OP also said they don’t fully remember what was done, so they may have disabled systemd-resolved or installed openresolv or who knows what else.

Fortunately, in this case, they should be able to follow the systemd-resolved docs from the beginning to end up with it working.

127.0.0.53 is the local stub used by systemd-resolved, so OP should pull this thread and comb the docs. If systemd-resolved is installed and not being used, it will cause conflicts with openresolv (most likely alternative).

I sync important files to s3 from a folder with awscli. Dot files and projects are in a private git repos. That’s it.

If I maintained a server, I would do something more sophisticated, but installation is so dead simple these days that I could get a daily driver in working order very quickly.

It most certainly is not

Pharmacies/drug stores in America have unique laws and ordinances that go back to prohibition. During that time, they took over the role of saloons in communities, since they were able to sell medicinal whisky.

I don’t. I migrated to Arch in 2011 or 2012 btw. Fuck I feel old.

Celebrities do express support for third party candidates regularly

Uh because they have freedom of speech and can think whatever they want

That would be a departure from every other “investigation” in this war, where Israel investigates and finds no wrong.

Yeah sure, a distro could start spying on users. How easy it would be would depend on their distribution model, and how willing they are to violate the GPL.

Linux is a tool that big corporate entities have profited greatly from for many years, and will continue to. Same with BSD, Apache, Docker, MySQL, Postgres, SSH…

Valve, Sys76, Framework, etc. Are proving that using Linux to serve an end user market is also profitable, and are capable of supporting enterprise use-cases.

I understand that there may be specific problems to solve wrt improving adoptability, usability, compatibility, etc., but Linux is doing more than ok within the context of the FOSS ecosystem (and increasingly without).

Your thinking is slightly skewed, IMHO. Linux doesn’t have an inherent incentive to compete with MacOS or MS, and if it did, it would be subject to the same pressures that encourage bad behavior like spying on users, creating walled gardens, and so forth.

Fixed it for you: VSCode, Red Star OS, and sh

It is pretty insane how outsized Trump’s influence is.

• He sank a bipartisan immigration bill developed, in part, by some of the most conservative members of Congress, with the sole purpose of denying a victory to the Whitehouse.
• He and his most fervent cultists still refuse to concede that he lost the 2020 election.
• Politics of fear and spite, afflicting large swaths of the electorate with such.
• Democrats have been “in power” for… almost 4 years. It’s not a mystery, it’s simple arithmetic!

Fugg yeah thanks for the tip!. I was not there for krohnkite the first time around, but I’m here for it now.

Whatever you do, steer clear of Plasma Wayland right now. Polonium has a lot of issues.

You haven’t provided any info about your partition scheme for either drive, but I assume you’ve got your bootloader installed in an EFI partition in the newer drive. You will still have an EFI partition on the old drive created by the Ubuntu installer, so just be sure you know which bootloader you’re using.

Option 1 and 2 aren’t functionally any different. It’s not clear what issues you’re worried about, but if you’re nervous about breaking the Ubuntu installation, you might just want to wait until you can get the new drive.

You also don’t give any indication of how much data you have that you want to keep. If the 2tb drive is almost full, you have fewer options than if it is mostly empty or half full. You could resize your EXT4 partition and create a new partition, for example, allowing you to mount a fresh, clean filesystem to a subfolder in your home directory. Once the data migration is finished, you can format the old partitions and mount them somewhere else, or resize the newer partition over them. Be aware that your HDD will eventually fail mechanically, however. Maybe 5 years from now or next week, but they all fail someday.

It’s not clear to me what the goal of option 3 is, but it’s dependent on how you use your machine. If you want to install a lot of applications or games that you want to run fast, you don’t want to migrate a bunch of your data to your newer SSD. If you just want a temporary place to store the data you want to keep until you can format the old drive, I guess this is a fine approach, but creating a dedicated user for this is just adding unnecessary complexity, IMHO.
