no, British Telly is showing fine, !die_reklame@feddit.org is hidden. I haven't selected "hide bot stuff" anywhere in settings.

thanks for the reply. filtered is empty and the community is !die_reklame@feddit.org

this is how it shows in the sidebar (subscribed). went through all options and nowhere is it listed as blocked/silenced/whatever.

yes, clicking "show" reveals the post.

was there at any time , say in the last 50 or so years, at any point, new tech that we, the tech enthusiasts, folks who go out of their way to buy and use and find new uses for tech, tech that we somehow missed to see its usefulness? anything that needed this much debating and convincing and hand-wrangling and moral bargaining? and having those fucking cretins on the other side of the argument?

did someone need to convince you the web is awesome? mobile phone? electric car? conversely, you instantly knew VR is bullshit. and crypto. and all its derivatives.

this shit ain't what they say it is, there ain't no I in this ai. you perpetuating this butlerian bullshit means you swallowed their spiel (look up critihyping), that this financial scam dressed up as progress is an inevitability.

this just needs a normal revolution, of the kind that was enacted a coupla times in history, stripping the right folks of a buncha stuff that I ain't gonna specify here, for entirely legal reasons.

are you looking to get a phone at this stage? then skip that one and go for a Poco F1 or Oneplus 6/6T. those run the way more powerful SDM845, have faster storage, available in 6 or 8 GB RAM, and most important, have the widest suport for other linuxes, postmarketOS and mobian, as well as UT. prices should be in the same ballpark, as all of those are close to 10 years old; if you can choose, F1 can be opened way easier for battery replacement.

those two run native mainline linux whereas UT runs on Halium (that's like android + linux in a VM). also !linuxphones@lemmy.ml

edit: haven't answered the question - 6 GB is obv more than enough for normal use; 4 GB ain't.

efficiently tracking time spent and policing assholes come to mind as potential issues. also, all that coffee and tea + spending prolonged periods there raise the bar on maintenance wrt toilettes.

not a customer, but you'd do well to state front and center whether or to what extent this was vibeshat. same should go for every "I built" post, imo.

all of that for a file server?! did you skip a paragraph or two, what on earth needs this much horsepower?

here's my old dude, slightly more modern than your retired one:

my server specs - core 2 duo with 4 gb ram

servarr stack, jellyfin, pihole, and assorted other stuff...

eOS to lineageOS is like Ubuntu to Debian; a more newb-oriented solution with some stuff preinstalled but with less choices; e.g. you can't switch out the iOS-like launcher. if you know your way around, you're wasting your time with eOS. but if it's for a less technically adept user, you might be doing them a favor with eOS. the murena suite can be opted out of.

had a bunch of those. the best thing you can do is disable the nvidia graphics and run it off the intel graphics, plenty powerful for everyday tasks, lower power consumption, less heat, longer battery life. only downside, you lose display out.

after that, any linux distro will suit you just fine. go with fedora for newest and best or debian for safe and boring.

anyone knows what kinda driver that isn't nouveau works for a GT750M? @mlg@lemmy.world which did you use for your 750ti?

got a Macbook Pro 2013 motherboard (i7-4850, 16 GB DDR3, GT750M 2 GB) that I'm thinking of turning into a desktop. no gaming intended, although welcome if possible (old titles).
