Going to reply to some 30+ comments on this platform. Which is really nice. 🩷

But then I need to find a new Linux distro for my media playing laptop 😪

Oh, now I understand while some people still use vim. They just like chips.

About that laptop, I’ve had a HTPC for many years, and I’ve used Fedora for most of them. Eventually, I got tired of the frequent updates and the fact that the update GUI stopped working. I kept on updating through the terminal for many years, but I got tired of that as well. Nowadays, it’s running Debian, and I haven’t noticed any downsides so far. I think it’s a good distro for media consumption.

Sweet! I remeber using pure Debian in a Raspberry Pi a few years back. Worked flawlessly. I'll keep it in mind!

I laughed out loud at this. Thanks! xD And thanks (?) for giving me the idea to search for an AI Waifu app.

Good keyboard. This hybrid setup of sitting at a desktop to use a tablet in this way for one handed typing on a keyboard seems like insanity to me..... But you do you. Hope the crisps are good.

There are tissues next to me with which I admittedly wipe my fingers and then type with both hands. 🫣

Yeah I hate that they don't sell this form factor anymore... Which I anticipated and therefore bought TWO 😎

Imagine a highly advanced alien race visited us TOMORROW. Are you prepared to explain yourself (read "humanity") when they find that video?

It’s pretty good as long as you don’t absolutely require the latest versions of everything. If an older version gets the job done and frequent updates annoy you, look no further.

I do this with most chips. It also slows me down long enough to fight the urge and just vacuum the whole bag

I'm so grateful I grew up during the 90's and early 2000's.
