Great, thanks

It is not for me personally, but for a person who wants a gui. And a Touch screen. Also I need an on Screen Keyboard because he also does not want to use a keyboard or mouse.

I tried using a very simple compositor like cage to just start shortwave, but I couldnt get my Keyboard to work since it needs gnome accessibility runtime to automatically show when clicking a text field.

And also xfce is more than light enough not to take up more than 1-2 secs of the total boot time

The flatpak thing was just the jellyfin-media-player so I can play my music from jellyfin too, but I guess ill just set up DLNA so I can stream to the device from my Phone

Yes, I personally use flatpak because I want a reliable way to update packages that are not in the native repositories. Still, I would love if it would be like snaps in the sense that I can use the native libraries and only install the app as flatpak.

Its just really frustrating to have to install the whole fricking gnome desktop again just so some flatpak can use it

Void Linux is the Definition of „lacks a few packages”

Sort of, actually

I was trying to build a PC just to play internet radio on using Shortwave, and a 30€ thin client with 4 1,5Ghz cores and no active cooling, 4 gigs of ram and an 8gb ssd were more than enough for that

where you you even get an 8gb ssd

I bought a Fujitsu thin client for 30€, and I decided to spend the 5€ extra to get one with a drive (making it 30€ total.

why would you use one outside of some specialized embedded application that shouldn’t even have a desktop interface?

1. I have way too much free time

2. I have no money

3. Originally it should only have been a minimal void Linux install so it can connect to my local server via RDP. But I just realised that that futro s920 with 4 1,5ghz cores is actually way faster and more reliable than my 4th gen Intel i5 will ever be

and even then why not something lighter than kde or gnome

I ssh’d into the PC. It runs xfce4, and it is just made to display shortwave (an Internet radio player) in full screen on a cashier terminal screen that I ripped from the terminal assembly. I just needed the cheapest thing to run shortwave on so my father has an Internet radio, since the other 2 options were

• buy a big ass Antenna for his normal radio, or

• buy a used Internet radio for 200€ (this way it only cost about 90€), wait until its Server is shut down, and then somehow with a mix of wireshark, dns logging, and pure luck somehow locally rerout the domain that the radio tries to connects to, figure out what kind of json file I need to host on my local server in order to make it refresh it’s database of Radios, and maintain these IPs forever.

also, please note, the image is in no way connected to this project, it just reminded me of it

Its a Fujitsu futro s920, got it off ebay

Why would you waste your energy and manage something yourself when they collect your data anyway?

OK, but why is it a for profit company in the first place?

And why does open source Software like xz, ffmpeg, etc still work without being for profit?

Fucking liberal.

Something something EU has other standards then USA, for example with Walkie talkies its illegal to use frequencies that US uses in EU and the other way around.

Its the same with cellular, US and EU has other Standards and the eff device may not be suitable to use those frequencies

Just connect it to a Server (like a raspi) via USB and share the printer through CUPS

Its a little tedious to set up, but it works

The controversy you pointed out is about someone who was writing factually false information and feeding hate against people who should be covered under the freedom of speech. The ban happened during his life, and not years after he died. Therefore his works were not a peace of gone culture, but hate in the present of time.

If I follow your argumentation, that being that you should allow people write false information feeding hate against specific people just living their life in peace, you should be against censoring Hate speech against Lgbtqia+ people too, or the better question would be: where do you draw the line? At Jews? At queer people?

The changing the Books part hasn’t been archived in the Catf wiki yet, but the non downloadable books is already fully written

https://wiki.rossmanngroup.com/wiki/Amazon_Kindle

OK, tanks for clarifying that

Yes, it would be great.

Yes, but you say it like the Author himself changed it.

In the specific Example, the book is from before 2000 and the author is long dead. That book is a piece of culture now, displaying the writing style from a place in time where it was normal to discriminate against people. By changing a book, regardless of if it was actually amazon or just some manager that bought up the rights for the book, it is manipulating the Past. Amazon should not allow to do such things

Its just a bitter taste, thinking about how a few companies can lay words into the mouth of people they did not even say, years after they died

I would rather just have them Ban the books, because then you can see how they are manipulating the information you see.

The kobo unes run Linux ootb, and they are as easy to install something like pluto on as an android one, but I still prefer them because I can do all kinds of shinanigans with the command line

Also if they are too expensive for you, just get a used one, as long as they have a backlight you can read just as well on them as a libra color

Another one of these cheap Simulators. Its almost like all of them just use the same Framework for the game (buying stuff, placing down objects, etc) and just change the Assets to whatever fits.

I have no problem with tycoon games, but for Petes sake just call it a $thing themed tycoon game and not a simulator

EndeavourOS is even worse.

It will install, and work, but then after one update it will just Brick because the newbie didn’t read the Patch notes from the arch RSS feed.

of innocent noobs

Don’t know about you, but I only recommend arch when someone says they want the most costumisable distro. No matter if they just mean the DE, if they are too dumb to realise the difference between a DE and a distro, they shouldn’t be on Linux anyway.
