The question he asked was more like "oldest person who's life was somewhat documented" so he goes later to find the first person with a recorded history. I wanna say he ended up on someone in an egyptian king's court

oh, he does archeology youtubes and just did a video on "the oldest name". He's pretty cool edit: It was a pretty cool video too. he also asked "oldest name we know a lot about" and "oldest name of a non-royal we know a lot about" in that video

I did this with my dad's old tapes. get an av to usb converter on amazon, plug camera into computer. play and records with ffmpeg or vlc

Do you watch stefan milo?

May I recommend further a good desktop pc w/upgradable parts and a used thinkpad laptop for travelling? You can get a good thinkpad for work and small games for $20-50 and they tend to last forever and be easy to repair. my favorite is X series

Yeah. F-droid's defaults for me have always worked well, and if I want a specific app to be up to date, I'll download it right from the devs (Shattered Pixel)

No problem. I actually don't know, but I did find this arch forum post with a suggestion about kernel boot parameters (although yours would be different) this Does that picture look similar (although more dramatic)?

What's ur hardware. What DE are you using

what about the coup?

Probably easier to explain to a 1700s peasant than most americans today

this essay by Huey P Newton is pretty good about anarchism being good theory, but typically counterproductive in caste societies like US

I have linux distros that i like and work for me, i almost never have issues. I think it depends on hardware, and i think a lot of the issues are just people trying to do things as they used to on windows and things just work a bit different

My reading was it wasn't based purely on number of files, but metadata related to files and stuff (idk what that is in ext4, but movies tend to be large and complex related to music). it's probably irrelevant because that's still a really small number on a modern hard drive.

Technically IaaS I guess

by all means, ask the question AFTER a direct answer

As original commenter pointed out, by the time they commented there were 12 direct answers to the question, none of which were likely to solve any problems. I think you're qualifying your statement after the fact to regain ground

I was weirded out by the 12288 filesize. If anyone else is wondering.

So used to seeing 4096 lol

it's all based on use case... cuz

But you tell them how to disable and reenable their graphics driver, then xorg crashes, their problem isn't solved and they give up. This question is "what is the problem you are trying to fix?"

That answer will help someone more than giving them an answer that won't fix anything

I'm not sure that's true in a lot of linux use cases. Linux and windows handle drivers very differently. There are a lot of graphics problems which have nothing to do with the driver, and when they do it's usually wrong driver instead of driver acting up
