I knew someone was going to ask that and I'm going to give you the lame answer that I don't remember for sure. It's been a while since I used my Chromebook, but it was a fairly mainstream application that wasn't compiled for ARM. I ended up using the Flatpak version, which worked fine but was a resource hog on an ARM Chromebook with only 4GB of RAM.
The S330 has an ARM processor, so definitely avoid that one (and any other Chromebook with an ARM processor). To be honest, I would buy a cheap Windows laptop and install Linux on that rather than fiddling with trying to get it to run on a Chromebook.
Or, as others have said, leave ChromeOS on the machine and run Linux in Crostini. If you have a reasonably speced machine it runs pretty well. Although again, I would avoid ARM as some Debian applications aren't available for ARM Chromebooks.
In my 60's. According to Internet sources, shorthand was taught in schools until the 1990's. It's likely that shorthand use declined as PCs became common in offices.
Sometimes I play rain/storm sounds I've downloaded from YouTube. Other times I use the iPhone white noise generator. I've set up 2 Siri shortcuts (one for sound on and one for sound off), but tapping the back sounds like a good way to do it, too.
That's too bad. I have 189,000 miles on mine (304,000 km) and it's never let me down. I haven't had to do anything but regular maintenance on it. I wanted to replace it with something a bit newer and nicer, but had to replace the car my wife and daughter share, instead. Fortuately, I don't drive very much so it will probably hold out for a few more years.
I commuted 2 1/2 hours a day, mostly highway driving. In a Yaris, with a passenger. For 8 years. I was driving, not stretching out to take a nap.
TBH, I would have preferred a car that was quieter and had a bit more comfortable ride. But a Corolla, Civic, Mazda 3 or Elantra would have been just fine.
My current car is an '07 Yaris. It's totally bare bones, but everyone who has been in it comments on how spacious the interior is.
I've always driven small cars, because they're economical and I've never needed anything larger. I hate that small hatchbacks are so scarce in the US and that our roads are overrun with ludicrously huge pickups and SUVs. We transitioned from land yachts to small cars in the late 1970's and 1980's, we could do it again with the right incentives.
I don't think an apology is necessary. You were completely comprehensible and there wasn't anything wrong with the way you expressed yourself. Conversations on Lemmy are informal and a lot of people write the way they speak. We're not composing academic papers here.
Because the Republicans, with their allies in the Federalist Society, have been planning this for decades.
Because the US Constitution excludes the most representative institution (the House of Representatives) from the appointments process. The President (determined by the Electoral college, which gives disproportionate weight to low-population red states) nominates justices, who are then confirmed by the Senate (where low-population red states have disproportionate power).
And here we are. Where the conservative supermajority in the USSC exists because two presidents who lost the popular vote have nominated justices who were then confirmed by a legislative body representing a minority of Americans.
I use the All feed to discover communities I'd like to subscribe to. I know there are other resources for that, but they all require you to know what content you're looking for. Sometimes i just like free-range exploring.
MHO...
I would not miss Hexbear at all if they were defederated. Most of the content I see from them is pretty obnoxious, and even the "nice, polite" posts have a strong sealion scent to them. I block most of their communities when I encounter them in my All feed, and will probably block the instance once Lemmy has that capability.
That being said, I support the decisions that @sunaurus is making in regard to Hexbear. His decisions about site administration and moderation have always been sensible and competent.
What scientist would not want to promote their latest research while wearing a CGI-generated cat head and doing interpretative dance to a base heavy riff by a band autotuned to sound like robotic pre-pubescent Japanese girls?
