Don’t really know, hit something about it elsewhere, but it didn’t say anything more than that, but yeah, that seems to be the gist of things.

I think the reason is because apparently a lot of people are unhappy with a deal Nix inked apparently with a company that does business with the US’ Immigrations and Customs

Don’t forget Clue

It was around $60 for a full set of ink (colour and black and white) when we grabbed some a month or so ago, so about average I think. When you think about printers, what brands do people talk about? HP, Brother and Epson, right? Canon I think isn’t really trying hard here, printers are just an offshoot of their camera business, do they make much else that isn’t cameras or camera related?

I’ve got a Canon TS642A that’s serving us well here. My Brother was giving me problems, mostly in wireless connectivity so we replaced it with this, which was I think the second cheapest Canon we could find, and we’ve only replaced the cartridges I think once in the last year, though we don’t use it all that much. On Linux, I don’t think it even needs drivers, its… Postscript I think? Setting up the wireless was a bit tricky, but once up and running, it’s been rock solid.

I always loved when Picard broke out the polite British fuck you, remember when he was dealing with the Shelliac<sp?>?

No need for an Apple keyboard unless you’re looking for extra function keys, a regular keyboard will work fine, and if’n for some reason you need the Mac layout, it’s available, I’ve always used the English (Macintosh) layout so I can get easy access to keys I like to use or sometimes need.

Interesting, I’m running LM:DE, and haven’t had any problems, on first start up it offers up a selection of things I might want to do including loading proprietary drivers. So far I have it running on multiple computers, including two POS terminals that were never meant to be used as computers.

Usually I just take a screenshot, I have no idea why I did a photo this time.

Hmmm, interesting idea, I’ll think about it, thanks.

I sorta understood that, but nothing research can’t answer. I know just enough extra about computers to really bork things. 😜

Attached is a pic of the BIOS, and I think you can see what I mean about it not being the real BIOS

Could always triple boot, use the third to play around to see if’n something else is even better than what you have, or use a container to test run different linuxes… linii? Personally I’m enjoying LMDE, and don’t like Gnome either, but that’s the great thing about Linux, so many different options.

Arch is a good choice, Endeavour was my flavor of choice, but these days I use Linux Mint: Debian Edition, which works mostly fine for me (got one minor piece of software I can’t get for it).

You’re welcome. I do recommend looking up Sunset’s Isekai, it crosses over with a lot of things, it’s Stargate crossover being one of my favorites, it ends with the SG1 team using an Equestrian portal to escape back to Equestria, which turns them into ponies. O’Neill winds up being a pegasus, and when told they’ll be changed back to human before they take the Stargate back to Earth, he looks at his wings, and asks the Princesses one question… ‘Do these things work?’ Some how I can easily see him doing that. T

That said, there’s been a fair number of MLP stories that I’ve discovered because of it.

As to the MLP lore, they do good with it, but there are some surprises, but you might’ve guessed one of them already, which explains the rest.

For computers I typically look at Lenovo, there’s a wide range of choices, and they can have some pretty sweet deals at times.

Linux Mint: Debian Edition. After watching a YouTube review I decided to take a break from Arch and give it a try, I’d always like Cinnamon, and I really like this.

Another place to look is at Lenovo laptops, I’ve had no problems installing Linux on them, and catch the right sale and you can get some really nice deals, though you have to be careful as they have a ridiculous number of variations on each model, some existing only for a single special deal.

I use both and while I prefer Kbin’s interface slightly, I will say that my experience with Lemmy is definitely better, the Kbin instance I’m on often has 500 errors on various parts of the site, along with lots of duplicate posts. Overall, I think it’s a toss up, neither one is particularly better than the other, though Lemmy is bigger.

Indeed, but I’ve watched a half dozen reviews at least, and none have mentioned it, though Ups & Downs was the most thorough. Heck, La’an’s timing’s been mentioned in at least one or two of those, but the translation? Nope, zip. Yeah, I think people will be catching stuff for weeks if not months afterwards.

Surprised none of these reviews have mentioned the translation, that got a chuckle out of me.
