It’s taken out Ecosia as well.

Using https://searcxng.online/ instead for now.

Such colourful days :)

I work at a community radio station and also am admin for our small town’s local Facebook group. It might suck a bit but it still has a large audience.

Asus F555D - 12G RAM, AMD R8 M350DX GPU and a sticker that says Radeon Dual Graphics. That’s probably what was tripping up the system booting to a black screen.

Difficult with Facebook as the interface keeps getting changed - the instructions go out of date so damn fast.

So I’m guessing they grabbed the %appdata% for Chrome and were able to get the passwords out of that?

Not Sandisk. Had several just die with no recovery possible.
Kingston had a few failures but probably OK as a cheap one.
Only had one Samsung crash, so mostly sell those despite the premium these days.

Baah. KBIN just ate my reply.

Point form since I forgot to save to clipboard first.

Tried mint - booted to black screen
Tried ubuntu - got silly crashes like in the post trying to install stuff. It also wanted me to sign up for some sort of support package with 5 free devices to get updates or something. Also, trackpad scrolling was uncontrollable. Would scroll up half a screen or more as I lifted my fingers off.
Tried fedora - only 100% and 200% zoom option, and no right click.

Managed to fix the fedora issues with some command line found on Google and a gnome customising addon.

n00b here, just playing. Can’t migrate fully as I need VBA and Playit Live etc.

Did you De-qualcomm it too, or not affected?

and bacon.

Now I’m a bit sad. A part of my childhood has died. bash.org.

I know there was one where someone was typing on IRC while driving his truck, and ends his quote with “fuck just rear ended a lady” but no way to find that quote directly now.

That was years ago, before smart phones I think.

Yep. It’s nice to know you’re in control of it. Not like bloody AnyDesk which decided one day out of the blue to remove the TCP Tunneling feature I was using.

Those words can be arranged in different positions to get a different meaning.

Nice. Mine runs on top of the fish tank on an old netbook. What sort of tablet?

Johnny Castaway can live on at least.

Why Hmm?

My 2014 Toshiba i7 still chugs along. Technically it’s two laptops in one as the first one if it was rebooted while hot the GPU would go all 1024x768 in the top left corner. The replacement mainboard I got ended up being an AMD one but if I enable the AMD chip in device manager it simply dies so it uses the onboard Intel HD graphics instead.

1GB SSD, plus 2GB HDD in an optical bay adapter.

It’s on its third battery - works for about an hour but jumps to 7% within a minute of running on battery, so if I put it to sleep etc it won’t go again without power.

Try converting to MP3 first if using Audacity: https://www.neowin.net/software/file-converter-universal-right-click-media-converter/

MP3DirectCut - https://mpesch3.de/ - might also suit. I use it a lot for community radio stuff as it doesn’t have to pre-load the entire file, making extracting interviews from the MP3 log files a very quick process. Cue the file, B for begin, N for end, File, Save selection, done.

Star Wars - the one where R2D2 gets zapped by Sand People and falls over with a comical thud.

Haven’t seen it for yonks, but enjoy it when I do.
