This might not be the answer, but it is important. This is one of the last videos Beau did before he retired and his wife is taking over. It is still one of my favorite channels, but keep this in mind especially for the next several months, and beyond if things don’t go our way.
Young people need to register and vote. If they did, SC would be blue reliably.
All but 2 states honestly…
Texas, where woke goes to die.
Sorry, I meant Florida. Texas is going purple baby!
The hero we didn’t know we needed.
But have you heard of TempleOS my son?
The en-metro-ification continues.
I mean, sticking with a paradigm that existed at least since windows 3.11 (my first version of windows) isn’t exactly ideal, entire software stacks are built around it existing.
It’s really too bad that Microsoft abandoned Windows Phone, because that is where this UI makes sense. But shoehorning the mistake of windows 8 into everything seems like doubling down on failure.
It would be nice if a competitor entered the space where usability is the goal and be an open source solution.
Gentoo: you compile your mother from source, and then give birth to yourself.
I meant from people like you and me that are Googling an obscure topic or researching something or troubleshooting information, those things are disappearing behind the walls of Discord
Exactly instead of a bunch of publicly searchable information silos we have a whole bunch of fragmented private ones with absolutely no overlap and far less useful. We need a publicly funded site of some kind.
Well, glad I jumped ship after the api fee fiasco. I never even used the mobile app, but the tone deaf/elonification, I was done. That’s right he got the great idea from Musk. How’s that IPO working out?
I read about the free edition, I will have to look into that. Thanks!
I ran it about 5 years ago. A friend had trouble getting the Nvidia closed source drivers installed so I spun up an install to get it done. I was able to figure it out. There was an error message that either she didn’t spot or maybe didn’t find a resolution too.
I do like Gentoo primarily because I am a troubleshooter at heart, I just don’t always have the time to deal with a broken system anymore.
I do get tempted to run it on bare metal from time to time. The last time I tried to install it in VirtualBox, it didn’t work out unfortunately.
I think that you misspelled Hannah Montana Linux?
(I just Googled KISS Linux. I tip my fedora, but I hope that you’re compiling everything from source!)
I had never installed Linux before. Back in 2006 my old college roommate told me that he was reading about it. I used Solaris Spark workstations back in college, but never ran Linux before. My other roommate ran Slackware which looked cool but I never looked into it. Anyway I had recently built a custom PC and I was trying to avoid paying the windows tax, and was growing tired of having to reinstall the cracked version I was using of “corporate windows xp” so I pulled up the installation guide, printed it out, and proceeded to install the stage 1 tarball.
It definitely was a trial by fire. I learned a tremendous amount, and I don’t regret any of it.
I even was playing WoW under Cedega.
I did eventually pick up a copy of Windows XP to run in parallels for Linux, and unfortunately, had to give it up for Windows XP as the main os due to Blizzard banning people who were playing Linux at the time.
I miss it sometimes, but I don’t have the free time to properly maintain an install of Gentoo.
I usually run Linux Mint on my VMs and test bench hardware however because it just works.
I ran Arch briefly but my conclusion was that if I wanted Ck and bl torture, I would just main Gentoo again.
Only masochists run Arch.
I run Gentoo BTW.
There was a program called Secunia that did exactly this. It was amazing. Sadly they were acquired and ended the free offering.
There are administration tools available for system deployment but they’re generally closed source and limited to the software selection available.
Unsure about command line, but PC Decrapifier is useful for removing preloaded software.
Ninite is useful to install software in batch.
Ninite can also install Malwarebytes, which is quite useful.
Between Windows Defender and Malwarebytes I generally don’t recommend anything else. And then Malwarebytes, which is extremely effective for free, is the only security suite worth paying for if you want to “set it and forget it”.
On the Microsoft side of things, a great deal of software can be deployed via command line.
It’s possible to build an offline installer for Office and Office 365 for example via the office deployment tool.
Additionally, it looks like if you pay for Ninite Pro, it supports command line.

Hmm TIL.
The quickest way to get the right answer in any community, in my experience, is to provide the wrong answer. People will come out of the woodwork to correct you.
True Patriots run Gentoo. CHOMP
Soul Reaver or Naruto?
Instructions unclear; unhinging jaw to consume ramen.
We have hundreds of years of out of copyright books and newspapers. I look forward to interacting with old-timey AI.
“Fiddle sticks! These mechanical horses will never catch on! They’re far too loud and barely more faster than a man can run!”
“A Woman’s place is raising children and tending to the house! If they get the vote, what will they demand next!? To earn a Man’s wage!?”
That last one is still relevant to today’s discourse somehow!?
