The Samsung bloat is real. I have two identical Galaxy Tabs, one with Lineage and one stock, and the software on the stock one is so annoying to go back to after using the Lineage one.

And it works well enough. No one is ditching Windows

There’s another animated Hobbit besides Bakshi, which isn’t bad. Not scary though.

Aeon Flux is still super weird 30 years later

You can do that bow, with Linux and Apache

Find a video of the Marantz 2150 with the oscilloscope built in,or the Telefunken reel to deal with the glowing level meter. Really wished I’d kept both of those

Worth watching for Rutger Bauer’s acting alone. That man put his all into being a hobo

That’s what I have, except networked. . Works fine. Just meant out of all the things, printers are still the hardest

I’d get a whole second machine and a KVM switch, it would save you much trouble

Nope I haven’t had trouble with drivers in a while. Printers are still probably thr worst but not bad.

It looks like proofed bread dough.

And that’s a bit of a break here. We hit 100+F regularly over the summer, and its 82 F and 85% humidity in the mornings. No AC is bad.

This hugely depends. Most places will happily split it.

I hear but have not verified that they will connect to an open network without letting you know.

Don’t forget you save lots of fuel by firing out of the solar system instead

Wine is pretty good for most things I’ve tried, except new Office (will run the old versions OK). Try O365, if Libre Office won’t cut it. You can try the installer in Wine without hurting anything. For your other stuff,I keep a Windows 8 vm around off network to run some ancient radio programming software, so maybe that is an option.

And it is not scary. A simple distro like Mint, figure out where the software repositories live, how to use thr off8xe suite, and you’re done. Life is "great*.

How did Customs let it through? It has to have DOT spec stuff in the US. I don’t know about more than 25 years old.

Where are you finding things like this? What’s parts availability like?

Stockpile did this too. I quit them (i did not like them anyway but that was the last straw)
