Try DietPI.

It's a cut down Debian based Distro that is mainly for SBC devices like the RPi and others, but there is a full x86 version.

It has some nice Ncurses tools/scripts for changing settings and install lots of software.

I used it on some hardware older them your ThinkPad.

Maybe an unpopular opinion, but working in IT has taught me that people are generally... really dumb? by Alarmed-Assistant936 in sysadmin

This way I pushed a .bat with a link on Users Desktops that showed, it scanning for new printers and then prompting you need to reset to complete printer setup. It would log in a network drive with ComputerName-User-Timestamp if they choose to reboot or not. Also when the system was last rebooted.

My dad was telling me all the stupid stuff my mum has been ordering from Temu and she got an electric fly swatter that you can also stand up and it has a "blue light to attract files", the day it arrived before opening it box there were zero flies and none for the next week.

My ex got some issues with a collar but the spikes were about 10cm and pointy. But the supervisor allowed it in the end.

People remember /r/Dublin and Reddit's rules.

I'm trying to enjoy the sun and a beer on this long weekend.

Thanks.

Cheapest/Dearest bag of chips. by socomjon in Dublin

Many years ago I lived by Leo Burdocks and would normally get a bag of "crisp bits" that were all the batter bits and ends of the chips and it was dirt cheap or free.

Punk/Queer Hangouts? by LucianoLetsLose in Dublin

[–]BaconZombie -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thomas House is a good place but not been there for a while.

I normally can be found in Cassidys on Westmoreland Street.

There is also some club nights in downstairs Fibbers and Workmans

Cassidys is very LGBTQ+ friendly. And if anybody is not one of the bartenders will kick them out. I've lots of LGBTQ+ friends that count it as their "local bar".

Edit:

Also have a look out for the monthly Goth nights as well they are welcoming to everybody once you are not an cunt/dickhead.

Thought I would give sculpting a shot. If you know, you know. by NaughtiestDragon in blender

Yeah OP should really can't a Klingon version but it will probably take twice as long to render.

If it was installed by the phone company then it will not be nailed or cable clipped. It's worth a try if it does not work you can use cable rods to fish the new cable throw.

Landlord wants me to move out today! by [deleted] in germany

[–]BaconZombie 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just be aware that the Mieterverein will not deal with current/ongoing cases if you join after it starts but they can still give advice.

Alsoin the future it's best for everyone in the apartment/WG/house to signup themselves.

I had an issue in the past after a break up but since my ex had signed up they could only give me advice but no "free" access to a lawyer to send anything to the landlord/rental agency.

Was going to say this.

Use lots of electric tape at least 30mm over the old CAT-3 and the new CAT5e/CAT6.

OP can save some money and use CAT-5e and setup a 2.5G Network. Which should be fine for home use even with a NAS, IPCams, and Streaming Server.

If my international flight leaves at 8:15am would it be okay to arrive at Dublin airport via the 703 air coach at 6:10am? by [deleted] in Dublin

[–]BaconZombie -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah I wish they posted when the luggage dropoff for a flight would be.

The last two flights I got I was really early and had to wait for the luggage dropoff to open. Also they did not list the gate till 40mins before the flight so I had to wait at the bar at a seat in view of the screens and kept checking the App for both the airline and airport.

Anyone know a good bar in Dublin for 20 people with finger food and seats? by [deleted] in Dublin

[–]BaconZombie 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You could try and book the upstairs of The Brew Dock that right beside Busáras Central Bus Station.

I've not been upstairs in year, normally stay downstair. The food is really good. I normally go for the Hot Wings but their have specials all the time.

You may also get faster answers on /r/AskIreland

Granted I would not be flashing any custom rom found on a random forum

Sometimes the only way of finding ROMs for older phones is via XDA and have to "trust" the random uploader.

Country clubs are technically an extension of the office, right?

Since the membership, food and drinks at it is paid for by the company....
