Leave “Weird Al” alone!

Wasn’t it a Cadillac that leaked oil all over the track at the 2023 Las Vegas GP pre-race?

Of course, there are always small issues that can make it a little harder. When most hardware is designed first and exclusively to run Windows, there will always be issues to be resolved.

I made a mistake though. You never advocated for anyone else to take the LTSC route, and that’s that I incorrectly read out of your message. My apologies. I usually take issue with people saying that’s a solution for other people. You never advocated that. Sorry.

If you’re the type of person that can acquire and run LTSC, aren’t you exactly the kind of person that has the ability to switch to Linux?

We’ve been through this before.

When Windows dropped most 32 bit support, desktop Linux had a chance just like this, but it didn’t happen then either. Unless some distro becomes a perfect 1:1 replacement for Windows on all hardware, with no changes in installation procedure. (including when it’s purchased) as well as: All software must run not only perfectly, but exactly the same, with everything from installation to every moment of use exactly the same, otherwise people will use Windows unpatched, or go out and buy new hardware.

In my opinion, the year of Linux on the desktop will only come when the desktop is abandoned, and it is no longer a commonly used platform.

Yes, it’s bleak, but we’ve been down this road before. Unless a distro becomes perfect, no significant change will come.

Scoop up that hardware being discarded, install your favorite distro (because you will be supporting it) and give it away to someone to learn Linux. There will never be a mass exodus, just install, educate, and chip away 1 user at a time.

My point wasn’t that it was aftermarket, but rather that you need a step to get into it. Can she get in without it?

Why do you need a special step so that your “standard size girlfriend” get get in?

Interesting note: Dick Van Dyke was a big Amiga user back in the day.

Or he brings a ton of cash to the table.

You realize that MAGA logic says that all of those things are the Democrats fault, and reason to persecute them. Only good things are from Trump.

That’s a good point most places, but in NYC, there is no turn on red. I still agree with being able to cross anywhere.

Stay vigilant, it will return.

Straight from the Amiga to Slackware in 97. Never been a Windows fan.

Why do all the penguins have geese on them?

Interesting, thanks. I followed a few links, and it looks like that might do it. It’ll have to wait until I have a bit of time to sit down though.

There is one, right behind the larger truck.

Been following the wiki, but when I try to flash for root partition, I get “data too large” . I’ve tried to wipe everything with TWRP, but it still shows the same error. Not sure how to proceed next.

Not the reaction I was hoping for , I was hoping you might have better luck than me.

I’m trying to install it on my Nexus 7, and having a tough time. I’d like to know how you make out.

I have Linux running on an Acer c710 laptop with an SSD duct-taped in the case. It just won’t die.
