You gave a snarky response implying that there aren't ads on Ubuntu and they replied with confirmation from a developer that they'll be forcing ads on ubuntu.
Are you still arguing that canonical isn't serving ads on Ubuntu? Or are you just being an ass because you were proven wrong?
I don't keep a Swiss army knife set of distros anymore. I put tumbleweed on a USB. It's rolling so I update it when I plug it in, then do what I need to do.
I used to have a USB with Ubuntu LTS and whatever the newest Ubuntu was. Then another would get something else that I needed/wanted. I always ended up wiping the drive and adding the newest release every single time. I was always out of date by the time I needed one of them for boot repair or something. This was also a time when persistence... Wasn't very persistent. With tumbleweed I can install whatever I need and it's there next time. I'm sure you can do the same with any other rolling release, but tumbleweed is in my opinion on par stability-wise with incremental distros. It's my first grab whenever I need to check a PC. If I need another distro or boot USB, I can make it from this one with a second USB. I suppose the only thing I can't do is make a bootable USB if the computer I'm on can't access the Internet
As far as I know, it isn't illegal to attain or have media for personal use. It is illegal to circumvent DRM and to distribute the media.
So, for example, it isn't illegal to record a stream. But the hoops you'd have to jump through in order to do so would end up circumventing DRM or with incredibly poor quality.
That's how these noodles are prepared, they're run through cold water and served cold. The novelty here is it flows through a trough to you, instead of chilled out of sight and served.
Someone call Mark Mothersbaugh asap. 💩
10F is quite large from a chemical stability point of view.
They're space truckers
I used both tumbleweed and leap for a bit and they really are good. I'm actually using tumbleweed on a home server right now and it's been a champ. But...
My biggest gripe is opensuse seems to use different package names than any of the other distros for basic packages. I had to install a package that used capitals in the package name, and coming from mostly debian based distros, that made me rationally angry when trying to find the package I needed. I think it was network-manager or something that's usually installed by default and I wanted something familiar.
Online directions for setting something up usually has deb and/or fedora rpm directions, which is usually just some difference in package names and the equivalent install command, searching the base package will let you figure it out. I had very few issues following debian/Ubuntu directions and translating them for fedora. Opensuse is always non-existent so you always need to translate those directions for opensuse, which is usually like doing it for fedora until you run into point (1).
That's only after taking away all the toys they pulled out instead of doing anything to get ready for the last 30 minutes.
I really like my synology DS216j. Pretty much all I use it for is as a file server and storage, mostly because it can't really do much beyond that these days, but it sure does handle that like a champ. I'm not trying to run a business with multiple users on it, just me and the family, which means mostly just me and my projects. It was super easy to set up in my early days of home networking knowing that I wanted a central location for storing my files from different devices and holding my expanding media collection. I think I saw that it had been running for over a year (would have been several years, but we get power outages occasionally and it's not on a UPS) without a restart when I increased my storage, and it's been running without issue since 2017. I'm planning on upgrading to a device that has 4+ drives sometime soon to make expanding and redundancy easier to handle, but it's a hard sell when this one is still chugging along.
I think it helps that I've always had a raspberry pi or other computer do the tasky things, so I never got entrenched in trying to make it do anything other than be a dlna/upnp server for media and shared file jockey for everything else.
Tar lzma nuts, amirite?
There's also that pesky low r/w bitrate.
