my experience is that through network, it’s just flawless. I turned on my printer and sure there it was. (though this feature just became a huge issue recently :P)

Yet.

The thing about foldables is that they are great and great for a while now - hardware wise. Like, my Fold 4 is amazing. The hole when it’s closed is a bit strange, but now they managed to close these phones technically flushed - so the only “real” problem disappeared.

the software side of things is what more important. how the OS handles the two (or three) and foldable screens.

It’s nice that Google too is pushing this market. This means the support for folding screens will be eventually completely baked into the OS and the manufacturers don’t have to hack up apps and services for it.

Now we need people to buy these to make the tech even more cheap and better. Though, if I look into the future in a kind of sci-fi glasses, folding and flexible screens are evident so I think we will be there eventually.

Reading your post, all I can think of is to get a decent TV and a small form factor computer, install LibreELEC on it and you have a standalone Kodi box.

Lots of plugins available (YouTube, I think Crunchyroll too), absolutely no ads, no slowdown, fluent and capable UI. It can be strange that all the plugins use Kodi’s framework, but they all work just fine. Some needs some additional things to do to work, but you really set up your plugins once, and they are good to go. I’m using Kodi for 3-4 years continuously as my main media machine and all the plugins updates regularly. You can play back local or remote media through network share seamlessly. Just get a PC with enough hardware to do 4K video. (I’m watching at max 1080p, but for that, a 3rd generation Intel i5 was more than enough).

welp, it’s another story how useful is this picture 😄, it just came to my mind and brought me some nostalgia in the meantime towards the artist. (yeah, saying artist in this case is strange, but otherwise who made this is a digital artist, or was, idk how active still)

reminded me of this picture

I like nano tho it has some strange shortcuts

System of a Down - System of a Down

If I uderstand it correctly, this feature will be tied to build flags anyway, so server distros can have this turned off in their kernel.

Lula 3D. Though, I never played with it eventually as it froze up the computer so bad we had to pull the plug, the experience as a kid was probably my worst gaming moment.

Deez beans :3

thanks for the reply, I’ll definitely will look into alsamixer or pavucontrol and dig deeper, to have true 2.1 setup.

I have another, integrated card, but there’s no room for the subwoofer output - or so do I thibk, that’s why I’m using an external one.

All my pain would end by using a jack splitter/joiner, but where’s the fun in that 😅

thanks again, mate. will report, if you are interested

fill up the remaining space on the drive completely with 0s with a dummy file you delete then, before gzipping

I used and use for gaming and OBS mechanical hard drives - no issues with them.

I won’t run OS from them anymore, but gaming and recording full hd live is not a problem.

maybe the OS doing some buffering to SSD, idk, but as NOT the only drive, they are still pretty nice.

Fanta Exotic is pretty dope tho :/

What am I missing?

Nothing. If you are content with your current setup, you are missing absolutely nothing.

You can set this up in Connect

Konsole, but only because I’m on Plasma. I really don’t rven like it that much, but… well, it’s a terminal, it does terminal things so I’m more than OK with it.

On xfce, I would youse xfce-terminal.

anything is fine as long as basic stuff works - like ctrl/shift+insert (tho it’s a thing I had to manually setup in Konsole 😅)

I had a friend in elementary school around early 2000s who was a huge computer nerd and with him I discovered the world of programming and computers in general - he was also the one who introduced me to Linux, Slax/Slackware, Blackpanther OS, UHU and later Ubuntu.

Then I installed my first Linux system for myself, which was Ubuntu then later changed to openSUSE. I loved it, up until the point KDE 4 came out and after 3.5, I hated it with passion so I dropped Linux for a while.

I had and have lots of Raspberry Pis, so I haven’t abandoned Linux completely, also in University, I needed Linux so I had a Kubuntu as well, but didn’t use it too intensively.

Also I used to bork all my Linux installations sooner or later to the point I was unable to recover them.

Now I built a new PC and I deceided I will use Linux, because I have no intentions to use Windows 11 for a while at least, so now my daily driver is Debian with KDE Plasma.

Tho I had no idea the louder part of the community/fandom is so toxic, cringe and childish, and I was and am in a few fandoms before, I’ve seen some shit, but not this much of a shit some Linux extremists have.
