Are these only "just" pulled from the online catalog, or the browser itself blocks installation too from file?
If the prior, I don't really like this action, but my browser won't change because of it (for now?) and also Mozilla and Firefox served me well in the past almost 20 years since I use it, I trust these guys.
Many years ago I tried it, but didn't really read up on it. Wanted to back up my Pi's sdcard while the system was running. I even fucking named that script "online-backup".
Now every time I ran that, after hours, I noticed my Pi was crashing, and never booted back up. I used chinese sd cards so I blamed it on them.
But this happened multiple times, just to learn I was using dd absolutely wrong.
dd was always a scary utility to me, and still is. I fucked up things with dd, regardless I quadruple checked everything 😅
but to answer the question; it's possible, but you really need to know what are you doing.
I always read now and even back then people complaining about t9 and how shitty it is...
I don't know, I loved it on my Sony Ericssons. The implementation of it was really nice.
Granted, I did use it on my native language, so maybe in English, it is shitty, but it was a must have thing to turn on for me after a while (when I discovered and realized how it works. before that, it was just some strange black magic)
Just started typing, and if I waited a bit, a list of words came up and could use the dpad or joystick to select a word. only annoying thing was a popup, if the word did not exists I was trying to type, but then I could just add it with two button presses and that's it.
Since at that time these shits weren't really normalized, I can imagine some people would actually like these things and maybe even use them. It would have feel... kinda modern? If that makes sense... (tho when I first saw XP after using 95 and 98 in my life at that point, it felt absolutely super-duper modern x3)
I like this image - it is really nicely done. I don't like what it represents, but the image itself is decent.
yeah, that was the main goal, a PC for another at least 10 years, I don't do too much gaming on PC anyway, so that's not a push to upgrade more recently than this.
My Dell Inspiron 7520 served really well, but had to upgrade sooner or later.
Both of them is about customization. Hard. I don't think there's two similar Slack or gentoo installation. So, for me, at least, it feels there's really no need distributions of those. Maybe it's just by definition, though.
he really needs a hug
