Well, I’m mildly autistic with absolutely zero charisma, and follow through with my moral and ethical beliefs almost to a fault. I’m probably “smarter” than average, but nowhere near smart enough for it to offset any of the previously mentioned issues.

So I’d be dumb and charismatic at a minimum. Sounds like I’d be set for life and quite happy.

Quick question, you said air intake at the front bottom. Is that what the black oval at the bottom of your render is? Or is the black bar USB ports?

Oh snap, I found the user manual and it has a much better image

I know it’s super low resolution, but the Acer B300 desktop I found on their website in the Wayback Machine looks really close to your render.

I can’t seem to find any other images of it though.

Not an answer but another idea for jogging your memory. I don’t know what PC magazines were popular in Germany, uhh well ever, but it’s not too hard to find archived copies of popular magazines here in the US from that time.

Here is a random copy of PC Magazine from some month in 2006.I didn’t see any PCs that matched your rendering, but there was an Acer Aspire that I had completely forgotten about.

Your second point is specifically the reason I don’t pay for Premium. I would actually really like to but unless there is some kind of guarantee they won’t be double dipping, I’m not going to.

Really? Because I just got whipped with a switch or a belt when I had my little boy autistic meltdowns.

Have a look at Heliboard. It’s open source. To get swipe you have to import a component that is extracted from GBoard that doesn’t come with the app, but it can be acquired from… places.

This is one of the actually decent uses of this model. I have used Whisper to transcribe to phone calls, and just the other week I had to export the audio from a video I was working on to run whisper to get subtitles for the video. It’s still not a set it and forget it solution, but correcting it’s small mistakes here and there is so much faster than manually transcribing the audio.

Given how modular ffmpeg is with the way the switches work a user never has to interact with that portion of the application. I can technically use ffmpeg to trsnscode an mp3 without ever using the video components.

That’s what I’m sayin’! I’m mildly autistic and not very good socially. Even if I want to be there it can be difficult. Tending to the fire is a way I get to participate.

Ah, fair enough.

Are either of those accessible from the GUI in a fresh default install? I know exactly where in Windows to find that control panel (granted they make it more convoluted to get to in every successive version), but I don’t know how I would do it with just what the OS provides in either Mint or Kubuntu (the two distros I have the most familiarity with).

I have only been rocking Linux as a daily driver for a year or two now though, so it could just be a gap in my knowledge.

Oorah!

It had to be me

Soooooo Craigslist? It’s wild to me how everyone flocked to FB.

I could be completely wrong as it’s outside of my areas of competency, but my understanding is that the functionality was harder to achieve because of some technical reason due in part to Google/Alphabet fuckery. So another day ending in “y”.

Unattended updates for everyone, 1.19 is here https://f-droid.org/2024/02/01/twif.html

Yeah, fuck that guy.

Technically he isn’t the CEO anymore. Doesn’t mean he isn’t still a cunt.

I have, and that didn’t seem to work. The Gitlab issue that the other user posted seems to be highly relevant because all of the users reporting an issue have the same phone that I do.
