Slackware may not be huge, but it is the base distro for Unraid.
Patient gamers being patient. Good on em. It'll get finished right about the time they drop the price.
My buddy played a gig last night with a guy who brought this genius amp. Pretty slick for a small footprint amp for hauling to gigs. He said it sounded great through the owner's Tele and my friend's Strat.
Thanks to Danny O'Dwyer and NoClip crew for saving these tapes from the landfill.
Call me old school, but I just buy a pack of Grolsch beer and take out the rubber gaskets from the bottles. They work pretty well with flared strap buttons. I've never had one fail on me, but I'm not throwing my guitars around much when I'm playing.
People seem to be unaware that Firefox on Android (not IOS unfortunately) has support for several useful extensions. Ad blocking is the obvious benefit, but I use a Text-to-speech extension every day.
Bobbi Flekman confronted the sexism in the Spinal Tap album "Smell the Glove" back when she worked artist relations for Polymer Records in 1982. She has known for years that "Money talks, and bullshit walks"
I want an edit of T-2 with the Lwaxana Triominator replacing Arnold in every scene.
I just can't believe that they expect people who bought the Ally to interface with the regular ass Win11 desktop without touchpads. Sure, horsepower and a better display is cool, but not at the expense of battery life and heat. I hope it's successful so we get revisions and incentive for others to get in the game, but it it's not quite there for me.
For desktop Linux, I use Arch. It's a community driven base distribution, so the needs of the community are what drives development and there are no financial decisions of a company that get priority, which is refreshing. It also has access to the latest and greatest that Linux has to offer.
They have a philosophy of expecting basic effort from users and to have a tinkering mindset. Historically, Arch devs and users have a reputation of being grumpy greybeards, but many of the rough edges have been rounded off in the last few years. If you are willing to do a bit of reading or watching some YouTube videos, it's not really that hard.
You can really build a lean and powerful machine that has just the software you want on the system with Arch. All it takes is a little effort and willingness to ask for help from the community after you have tried and failed to solve problems yourself. It's really not the badge of elitism to use Arch in 2023. It's never been easier to use and doesn't blow up on you nearly as often as the reputation implies. Just use good hygiene and make snapshots so if you blow it up, it's only a 5 minute recovery.
If all else fails with others' comments, try your public library. Seriously.
Low framerates, extremely close draw distances, and odd controller make it less appealing to most retro gaming fans that don't have nostalgia for the system. That's not to say you shouldn't go ham on some Buck Bumble or Doom 64, but it does explain why it's not as active as some other platforms.
I'm a guy who prefers community based distros. They don't have business decisions get in the way of the needs of the community. It ain't perfect, but it's worth the tradeoffs for me. Debian for stuff I don't want to constantly mess with. Arch for the express purpose of constantly messing with (and sometimes messing up).
