who is liking animal collective and not the beatles lol.
I feel like this /mu/ (?) guy would also like the beatles and probably check out r/beatlescirclejerk here and there.

this is a great troll idea :xi-clap:

you just tell the ubuntu installer you want to dual boot. it does it for you.
The shared filesystem is a little weirder because Windows uses NTFS and it kind of sucks on Linux (as it's not a unix(-like) filesystem so the semantics are different.) The are drivers for it but I think there can be a problem if your Windows install suspends to disk ( I recall that being a problem way back when.)
Although based on this post I hope you 1. have backups of your school shit and 2. understand Win7 is completely EOL unless you're paying big bucks to MS.

Yeah it's pretty much impossible to get around unless you build everything yourself -from the logic gates and up.

anything from buffalo trace distillery is liquid gold around here.

I've been following this whole rollout hanging out in r/WSE and tuning into the LPs.
What a wild ride it's been.

:jesse-wtf:

Yeah pretty poggers project. Price for the performance leaves a lot to be desired though.

I believe you can eek out more battery density if you make it nonstandard.
Check out old thinkpads if you want laptops with easily replaceable batteries.

hmm I'll have to try this. Thanks!

recipe? this sounds interesting.

yeah Sony is the best way. A friend helped me get one through the raffle.

Windows not being descended from a timesharing OS is part of the problem I think. Unix systems (on paper) have an edge there, but it's clear classic Unix permissions are insufficient too. Android and more so iOS are probably the best permissions model we currently have.

I really like Melodrama so I was disappointed with the new direction. Just all very "floaty" and lacking substance, always felt myself waiting for a conclusion that never came.

this was wild

with OPH and RED you can cover most of your bases.

I think you recommended I check out Gemini, was a great idea - I made an internet friend on there!

I've gone both routes of having a custom built NAS with, I think 20TBs of raw storage using ZFS (both on Ubuntu and TrueNAS/FreeNAS at different times) and having a Synology of 40TBs currently.
Basically you need to ask if you're doing this for a learning exercise or want something that "just works". I am a total nerd and enjoyed playing around with ZFS, docker and everything in between, but it's a real investment and when stuff does break (it does) you're on the hook.
The Synology on the other hand is low power and very painless, I've had amazing uptime on it with very few hiccups. You do pay a price premium for a NAS like a Synology, but I think it's worth it for some people when you get the time savings and extra goodies like HyperBackup or QuickConnect.
A good medium ground for a decent amount of cash (and what I wished I went with) is a FreeNAS/TrueNAS Mini - gives you TrueNAS on a appliance.
Whatever you decide I can help you out, I have good books on ZFS for sure.
