I think I tried DamnSmallLinux in a VM around like 2008 or something which I thought was really cool, then I tried Fedora which I didn't really like, then I tried Ubuntu which I really liked and still do, although I'm going to switch to Mint at some point because I prefer the idea of having a community-owned distro.

You could say that about Pokemon MMOs too, and yet I'm playing PokeMMO in 2025 on my PokeMMO account I created back in 2013.

There are some things Nintendo don't go after, and there are other things that they do go after. Decomps don't appear to be something they go after, which is good because then we can get cool ports of older games too.

FOSS isn't always more secure than closed-source, but it absolutely can be.

It depends on the priorities of the maintainers. It seems like Jellyfin's maintainers might not be putting a huge emphasis on security, which is very disappointing, but they are volunteers at the end of the day.

Why expect this to be taken down if other decomps haven't been taken down already? Why expect other decomps to be taken down?

Well yeah, they're fuckin' morons. The same thing almost happened to Canada, had Poilievre ended up winning.

ThinkPads generally aren't low to medium Windows laptops though, they're literally several thousand dollar machines. It's just they age incredibly well, so they end up on the used market at a heavily discounted price after a while. I'd be surprised if a Chromebook outperformed a ThinkPad when it comes to actual performance.

Yeah that's a good point about keyboard and mice, that's kind of why I like having an actual standalone laptop. For me I feel like a tablet isn't as portable as a phone, but it's also not as useful as a standalone laptop, so it's kind of hard for me to find a use case for it.

It's not a requirement but it's a good indication that she's been in the country for a long time, it's not like she just snuck in illegally from her home country. That was my point.

faster with the things it can do

What do you mean by this? Surely you don't mean actual performance, right?

I don't game a ton but having the performance to be able to do so is really nice IMO. The battery life is great as well (like 6+ hours depending on what you do etc), and being able to put any OS I want on it is huge too. I also like how durable it is too.

I feel like if I got a tablet, I'd want a keyboard, and then a mouse too. That'd still be best for portability though, most likely, but it's kind of nice having a full laptop experience.

This is Trump's America.

Notice how she speaks perfect English. This is clearly someone who doesn't belong in the US /s

What a fucking joke of a country.

I was thinking of buying a Chromebook for travelling cause it's cheap. I was very close to buying one, but someone told me about the world of used ThinkPads. I ended up buying a used ThinkPad with an AMD R7 4750U and I am so glad I did. It can run literally every game I want lol
