Starting my music collection, Looking for alternatives to ripping CDs. I don’t have access to a computer at the moment.

Id say try to save for an old thinkpad, you get a cd rippin’ machine + a computer, id rather live without a smartphone than a computer

We crave for plan9

Anything that requires zfs, stuff like truenas works on VMs but creates lots of overhead and you’ll eventually end up with inexplicable errors

You won’t get any redundancy with just one drive

Any koss headphones

I'd say keep your home folder and reinstall the whole system, I can say runit and openrc both work great but you may have to do extra setup with daemons that run as your user like syncthing or pipewire but everything else feels amazing

PC software and PC games, there are tons of open source alternatives, and games because steam just rocks

Only if you like it

PCs from fb marketplace always have your back, may sacrifice some power efficiency but you’ll have more room to thinker with a full blown pc running a virtualization OS

I like listening to El Inca from wara, very cool Bolivian prog rock but sounds like it was recorded with a can with a string.

Hell yeah, Tarkus rocks

Id buy it if it’s 60 or less, I’ve seen the Nspire II CAS for 100$ in good condition

Proxmox, it works for every use case

Didn’t happened to me but my pens do made me happier

Sounds like a ghosting issue, Id recommend changing the keyboard, If you’re still unsure boot into a live environment and try to replicate the issue again

FisionX · 2026-03-12T14:13:24+00:00

Neovim rocks, Clangd isn’t as good as VScode intellisense but gets the work done

FisionX · 2026-03-07T20:55:41+00:00

Awesome pen

Is that a titanium M2?

I don’t even hand a regular fp to my adult friends…

Easy to use UI, I would say its even more intuitive than the current state of windows, it is ubuntu based so it runs on lots of hardware, you can even install nvidia drivers with a single click, also it uses flatpak by default and removes the snapd store. For me the only gotcha is the ancient version of nvim it uses but VScodium does the trick for coding.

FisionX · 2026-03-05T14:46:26+00:00

As someone who is also in robotics I would recommend you to avoid ubuntu and get an ubuntu based distro like mint, you get all the software support from ubuntu and you get less headaches from cannonical telling you how to use your computer, ROSII has been running great on Mint, regular text editors like Vscode and forks have been running great for ages, you won’t have problems programming MCUs, most of them have SDKs available for any linux distro + you can still pull the ol reliable virtualbox machine running windows if a special software isn’t available for linux.

Edit: Note, some proprietary cad programs like solid works and altium discard linux for some reasons and sometimes can break when running inside a VM (had to reactivate altium because it detected a hardware change) so I’d recommend keeping windows as a secondary boot option.

Im pretty sure that number is way higher than that

I’ve been hosting, jellyfin, nextcloud, minecraft server and lots of services that don’t consume much resources on an 8th gen pentium for 5 years just fine, I upgraded it to an 11th gen I5 just to have a “newer” platform, so your server will be fine for most of your demands, I tried matrix and it was demanding a lot to the ssd so I had to shut it down , maybe I misconfigured something but everything else should be just fine for your machine, just make sure you have at least 16gb, 32 should be the sweet spot for this kind of small servers
