watch the documentary ‘the matrix is broken’.

bandcamp is awesome.

Manjaro, works out of the box. Mint required more steps to get working. Ive been distro hopping 15 years. i finally kicked windows out and have manjaro running all systems but one at home. 3 computers in the ham shack and the media center tv computer 3 mismatched screens no problems. and two laptops, one being touch screen, again manjaro just works. your milage may vary.

Perfectly stated.

thanks.

most of that software requires a subscription, i tried to copy honda stuffs, parts catalogs and service manuals, when i worked for a honda shop. that shit was locked down. this was 2009, 2010. good luck.

manjaro running on an old yoga 12. no problems. it’s the old ladies, so i would have heard.

Ebay for stuff, because you are usually dealing with a person that has some care for your order. Ebay doesnt wait 2 weeks to ship my stuff. Amazon now waits to ship so they can combine my orders. So in the past few months my ebay use is way up and my amazon use is way down. As far as content goes, piracy is still an awesome thing. I pay for physical books and music from bandcamp, the rest is acquired. I think people get lazier and dumber the closer you get to the equator. Thanks for your comment. a guy at 59.9n.

i think you need some voltage because you can only hear it with the gain cranked up.
