You’re being incredibly generous if you think he understands any of it.

NATO doesn’t.

Some of its members do. These are not the same things.

KDE.

I won’t use gnome (I’ve mentioned elsewhere), and unsurprisingly I just dont like it either. The design choices are restrictive, the environment is oversimplified - its just not for me.

Ive used lots of DEs over the years, even fvwm95 (the original, its neat that some folks have updated it though), and at this point if its a desktop its getting KDE.

Off lease lenovo/HP/dell tiny/mini/micro. Keep the NAS for the storage, use the tiny/mini/micro as the media server. Anything with a 6th gen Intel and up will be decent on transcoding (use the igpu), 8th gen and up is better.

Personally I’d put proxmox on it, and run each service as an LXC, or for the little ones, one LXC for docker and throw the docker containers on there.

I have 7 tiny/mini/micros. 3 dell micro, 3 lenovo tiny, 1 HP mini (used to have 2 but one got replaced by a dell).

Powerhouses with low power draw. Highly recommended.

If you do build, I’d say an Intel arc GPU. The rest is just buying stuff that works well with Linux, which is most everything in terms of the basics.

Buy a commercial display, thats what I do.

You can check out the xit posted to xitter that’s right in the article if you want. Nothing wrong with the info in the article, there are other sources as well.

Its because they are now very into magic school bus (the original), Wall-E, and Aristocats. They only get movies the two days my wife works during the week, and a few hours on the weekend.

They will likely cycle back in another week or so, that repeat obsession and rotate is fully expected.

And Nightmare Before Christmas is a solid choice! During the holidays I have different playlists of related movies, so we mostly do those - Nightmare Before Christmas gets to be in the Halloween and Christmas playlist so it gets extra playtime.

Ive got a 6yr old and a 2yr old… Its been maybe a week for me lol

No evil thing will btw

It might not be as good a brag down at the country club

That depends on if you’re buying new or you have a classic roadster.

Money and means always matters.

The bending of the knee is just a quest for more money.

They have sufficient money and means to get out.

Having had a disagreement with Miguel De Icaza that boiled down to him saying “Well I have these books on my shelf so I’m right” (narrator: he wasn’t right, it was hilarious later).

I will never, ever touch Gnome. I get it.

I see you’ve met my moron of an uncle. Who is in his late 50’s.

The obsession is because that’s the news friendly way of answering with “racism”.
