Also he’s dead, why do dead people deserve anything, any rights? What harm happens to Hitler? He’s dead. Did we ask dinosaurs to look at their DNA, for all we know they were sentient? The whole argument is stupid.

We should make a song, death…death to the O.I.L… Same tune as Bob Vylan did in Glastonbury.
There is still some optionality like maybe you get a windfall from a boomer dying and you can pay the principal. Or in 30 years your currency devalues to the point you can afford the principal.
Anyway it all feels like fool’s hope. Situation is fucked.


You are right, I had forgotten that, Mint XFCE might be 3gigs on HDD, but it’s quite light on processor and RAM. Anyway my suggestion is invalid for x86 requirement.


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.
How did they know they were indigenous bones? Was dead person’s consent asked for to check if dead person wanted to be identified as ancestor of somebody?
I mean i understand caring for our dead, but anytime it’s a matter of consent, its always for the living descendants, HIPPA protects medical records for 50 years, but they’re generally protected so the living descendents don’t feel impact for anything that maybe damaging.
And talking about laws I know it’s a tangent, but the reason copyright exist after death is so that revenue can be enjoyed by living descendents. Laws are not necessarily sensible a lot of times.
