That made me laugh so hard. Are there really no clients for linux mobiles?

What would you use this laptop for?

I've dealt with similar hardware, using Qtile over a Manjaro base, but had to mostly use CLI/TUI apps. Anything related to web browsing is a pain.

Does the resolution really matter? I may be wrong, but I think nobody runs a Tor node, giving away their bandwidth for free and risking jail time, just so that some random dude in Arkansas can watch some porn.

Can't see anyone mentioning this, but have you tried the johncena releases on 1337x?

All of them are neatly compressed, don't need Steam and I haven't seen a single one that doesn't work out of the box on Manjaro.

Thank you so much. Works perfectly!

You're right. When you put it like that, calling it obscure sounds like an exaggeration. Though it's probably one of the least spoken Slavic languages.

Isn't Hot supposed to work like that? When it's not broken, of course.

I feel like some simple algorithm like the ones used in dithering may be used to mix up the feed.

You can sqeeze plenty of use from these laptops, especially the really light ones.

My gf works as an arts teacher in a primary school and needed something very small and light that she could carry every day to school.

The usage is mostly very light browsing (the school system, some Pinterest), showing the kids some reference images and the ocasional document editing and printing.

For a piece if what essentially is e-waste it handles that admirably, and because of the atom processor it sips power, which still gives it a few hours of battery life after about 10 yeas of ownership.

Tldr: Don't underestimate how useful an old laptop running a minimal linux disto can be for a casual user.

I missed Atom a lot when it was discontinued. Recently found Pulsar which is a community continuation of Atom, and it seems to be quite active.

Years ago I moved to Linux and one of the reasons was to not spend as much time gaming. Nowadays if I wanted to do the same I would have to move to BSD.

Years ago I selfhosted Nextcloud and found this interaction just as clunky as using google drive. Now I'm just using SFTP which has much less overhead and it integrates beautifully with just about any file manager on Linux. Then again, using it on windows is a pain as far as I know.
