Tiny Core can loadit self into RAM, but it doesn’t have to, you can do a normal install as well. Also even if you want to run it from RAM, it only takes 46MB in RAM not ideal but manageable with 512MB. Also you can even downgrade if you are not UI dependent, you can install the core (non-tiny version) and only needs 26MB RAM.

I wanted to say tiny Core, but someone gave that. So I’ll give another suggestion. Use something XFCE based or LXQt based. Maybe mint in XFCE De is the way to go if you want a feature rich solution that is light on resources.

This is the answer. Tiny Core is absolute best for old hardware as it gets running upto speed quickly takes very little resources and you can see what kind of resources it consumes and can add things to it to make it useful.

English is technically my fourth language and I started learning it at age 12. However I really got good around age 16 when I started watching a lot of Hollywood movies with subtitles. Even now when I speak fluent English, with dare I say some “elegance”, i prefer my movies with subtitles, because it’s just a happy place in my mind.

Demo was useless, they never showed climbing, never showed a person sitting on it. I doubt it’s even ergonomic.

Seemed gimmicky

That is genius, I wish I was that smart.

I was on Linux mint XFCE at that time and even though it had a setting to decide what to do when power button is pressed but it was broken and would reset itself every few hours.

I had to disconnect power button from mobo because my room mate’s cat would just shut it off, luckily I had a case whose side panel was very easy to open with a hinge, so I tied two cables near the latch and to turn it in, I’d turn the latch open the case, quickly short the cables and close the panel and latch.

Thanks for reminding me of that. Also I swear that cat knew what I did and kept trying to open the latch for a few months before giving up.

I used to think that till I met absolute Chad of a man with failing kidney and he would laugh at the situation refuse to be treated, he was like I’m 47 I lived a happy life and I’ll die if ill die but I’m not being bound to a bed, refused multiple dialysis interventions from his family and was clearly getting in pain towards the end, finally sold his very few possessions, gave some money to his youngest sister that struggled financially and took some drugs and died on a beach alone. (he had already gave up one kidney to save a sibling).

That man clearly didn’t care much about, he didn’t care about his family getting hurt because of his illness and death, he didn’t care about pain to his body, he didn’t care about death, and honestly I saw him 3-4 days before his death, he was still laughing like he was at peace and played a few games of uno with me.

Must be nice knowing you don’t overthink.

Good joke. Everybody laugh.

Seriously gave me a good chuckle after days.

Yeah tell that to my sister, who wants 4k for her laptop simply because she’s heard 4k is better 4 times 1080p, she’s buying a 13 inch.

Small numbers are just not sufficient for some people. I know if I send this article to her, I’ll be questioned “why do you not want me to see happy?”. So instead I just watch my nephews collage fund contribution shrink.

Sorry it became a rant of family tech guy.

I feel i am the soup and rice guy so, best of both worlds.

Oh I’m greedy.

The guy at the bottom is M.A.D. (Music Art Dance) my Indian colleague watches it in background like all 8 hours he is in office.

I’m guessing it’s Indian.

Yes, but we don’t have proof that universe can’t generate new matter. For all we know there is a mechanism in universe not yet observed that can create new matter out of little vacuum and more stars will keep forming.

So technically all we can say is, it’s likely that stars will die out in 1000 trillion years.

Bro you need to understand how relative humidity works. Evaporation is dependent on both air circulation and humidity gradiant. Now out of the two humidity gradiant is by quite a strong factor to the point where you can have very high air circulation of 100% relative humidity and you would see very little evaporation. Compare that a 20% relative humidity and no air circulation and you will see much more evaporation until relative humidity reaches 100%.

So what a dessicant does is take the relative humidity down by quite a lot in a sealed container and that forces evaporation quite a bit, and it will continue to dry the phone until relative humidity reaches 100% which will only happen once rice/desiccant has absorbed all the water it possible can at the given temperature and pressure.

Again untrue whatever you think is “whole” water, any dessicant will absolutely undoubtedly help with evaporation.

Not every person is tech savvy enough to open boards. Advice for most novices is still put phone between dessicant to get water out of the device is valid and good advice.

Would using isopropyl alcohol be better option? Sure it is. but telling my aunt to do it, and device will probably die because she doesn’t know how to handle pcbs anyway. I’d much rather just advice using dessicant and hope mineral residue doesn’t sort anything. And I’ll continue with that advice forever.

Yeah fitgirl would never release official android app or any platform for that matter.

That’s underselling it, it’s one of the most populous islands of Indonesia(50% of entire country’s population lives on Java with heavy concentration on Jakarta) . 13th largest island in the world but 3rd largest in Indonesia. It’s also home to more than 70% of Indonesia’s GDP. Java is the heart of Indonesia.

I just noticed, he has lights pointed directly at his face, his pupils are still diallated quite a bit, I wonder what drugs he must be on.
