Not always, I have one with an amd chipset that I can't get Linux on (last time I checked).

You have to open them up and remove a screw then install different firmware.

The dell Chromebook 11 I got from eBay for under £20 was easy to get it working on though.

The dark crystal is the greatest fantasy movie of all time.

One of the reasons I think they hit different is because of the technology used to film them and the practical effects.

To me horror films from the 70s and before seem more real and scary than modern ones that are full of CGI and weird pallete swaps like when they film night scenes during the day and then darken them after. It just gives off this whole 'this is a fake movie' thing to me.

I haven't tried for years but vst's are pure pain on Linux.

Have you tried bitwig studio? It has a native Linux version and is incredible. Vst will still be shit (if they are even supported) but if you master bitwig you probably won't even need them.

OpenSuse leap

[-] astroturds@startrek.website 4 points 1 year ago

Yeah, but quite often you get to see them wash it all off.

I'm constantly trying out all the ones I can find but so far connect is the only one where I can customise the colours. I love me a sepia theme!

Luckily it's also great in other ways.

No way! Opensuse has always been perfect for me, I do usually use leap though.

I like it, it's an Ubuntu lts with a nice theme (I wish it had grey instead of just black and white though), wine integration to run compatible windows software and it's always just worked for me.

I don't like the fact that some things are locked out unless you pay for the pro version but I think that's just layouts and stuff.

I'd say it's good but like all of these Ubuntu derivatives you're almost always better off just using Ubuntu. Even people changing from windows to Linux, I'd still just tell them to use Ubuntu.

Don't get me wrong, I was furious with Michael almost the whole way through!

I think they were trying to tell us the story of someone that struggled with starfleet principles but ends up finding their way and becoming a great captain, but she just pissed the fans off.

She did get a bit better, I now give her a pass because she told her boyfriend that if starfleet told her to she would just kill him.

She's still the least suitable captain of any show though, in my opinion.

Yeah that got me too.

Thanks, I really like the whole idea of Lemmy and this instance. it's quite exciting being present for the start of it all. It took a while for it to compute in my brain but I'm getting there.

We are boldly going!

I kept prodigy until last because I was convinced that it would be too childish but it was superb!

I love murf!
