If you like hiking, you might also enjoy indoor rock climbing. It's more social and fun than a gym and you will have the opportunity to interact with a lot of the same people repeatedly. You might even have some beginners groups in you area to get started. Meetup.com is good for finding groups like that.
Good luck out there!
That actually sounds like a neat idea. I mean, it's a privacy nightmare, but not much more than any other social media site.
I guess I'll look into XFS and see if it's suitable for my use cases (I know almost nothing about it), but this supports my opinion that BTRFS is an easy choice over EXT4 at least.
Edit: No snapshot support in XFS, so I'll stick with BTRFS. My performance requirements are not that high on desktop. If I set up a high-performance server that would be another matter.
I was surprised to learn that F2FS has rather small maximum volume sizes. 16TB with 4K block sizes, 64TB with 16K block sizes. But your whole kernel needs to use 16K pages to use 16K F2FS blocks, which seems like more trouble than it's worth. Either way, it's so non-future-proof I'm not even going to think about it.
For context, Debian dropped support for 586 in Debian Stretch (9.0), release in 2017.
I have not done the legwork to compare this to other distros, but Debian generally supports older hardware than most other major mainstream desktop distros.
Kind of makes sense. It would be an addition to the lineup rather than a replacement like previous "T" series. It would just cannibalize sales.
Bummer, but probably the right move.
Mobile payment is the only major problem I've encountered. Fortunately, for me it's just a nice-to-have, not a must-have.
I've heard that some banks have that feature within their own app, but I've never actually seen that. If anyone knows of specific banks that support that, please share! I suspect there's no such thing in my country but who knows?
It's an extra step in macOS 15. You need to go into System Settings now.
Used to just be able to use the contextual menu to open it and get an approval dialog.
Most Republicans don't. Never have in my lifetime, honestly, but with how hard they fight these days against e.g. feeding the hungry and treating the sick, it's more glaringly obvious than ever.
I'm actually using an atomic distro now (Bazzite). But that's not why I chose it, and honestly I don't think the advantages are significant.
There are some downsides that affect me on a regular basis, though.
I need to reboot more since every update requires it. That feels like going back in time 25 years.
I need to deal with the complexity of multiple distros with DistroBox to get the functionality I am accustomed to. I think that alone is proof that atomic distros are not quite ready for prime time.
The advantages elude me. Snapper or timeshift handle rollbacks just fine, as long as you use a modern filesystem like btrfs. So I haven't worried about busted updates in years.
I'm quite happy with Bazzite, but I can't point to anything good about it that is specific to immutable distros. I just don't get it, really. I guess the advantages are more for the developers and maintainers than for end users.
The great thing about USB-C is that it's so easy to charge anywhere. Get a power bank or two and you should be good to go.
My grandfather used to half-jokingly call them the CIA's press wing.
