This, or you could just symlink a folder in your home to wherever a wine prefix would be to run it.

rsync

You can get a Ryzen minipc for under $200 now.

Try disabling the metadata downloaders.

The chrome instance is commented out…

Yeah. More people involved need to be seeing jail.

So, yeah. I can’t watch the full hour, but I skipped through and get the point.

Essentially, there used to be some guardrails around direct advertising in movies and TV after everyone selling ad time in the 50’s-70’s got multiple generations hooked on cigarettes and booze. Then it shifted from smokes to Coca-Cola which was in literally every movie in the 00’s, and now it’s websites.

The trick is, you can leave these brands anywhere in sight on screen, as long as you don’t directly tell the audience they need to buy it.

Bottle of Aviator Gin in a bar shot, sure.

Brawny paper towels in a janitorial closet, why not?

You just can’t draw attention to it. It’s a foolish distinction now because it’s been getting abused for so long, but until there are direct bans on all brands on screen - which seems kind of impossible - this will be a thing. Even more so now that you can quickly work AI generated billboard scenes in wherever you want without having to CGI or film it anymore. Sucks.

Edit: This is a perfect (though comedic) example of how it still works - https://youtu.be/5OHxP7pnwPg

You may not have been carrier or region locked. Most are.

I’m sure they wish that too, instead they have people like you just throwing your own BS around a thread where they’re trying to ask for honest suggestions. Sucks.

He says he has Ubuntu installed and is loving it, and just asking if there’s any other things to round out a tablet experience.

You: ☝️ “why don’t you completely change the thing that is working for you, and even though you didn’t ask, do what I’m suggesting you do because I like it, and it works for my mommy who just uses the web browser. Also, if anyone disagrees with me for evangelizing and giving unsolicited advice, I’m going to call them a prick and argue with them because I’m just special” ☝️ 😤

Friend, you’re so up your own ass, you didn’t even read OP’s post. He wasn’t asking for your ill informed recommendation for a distro…

Why don’t you read it again?

Button is there for a reason. If you’re just interjecting with nonsense, it should be downvoted.

I downvoted because your comment had nothing to with the context of this thread or my comment, and just served to be an “AKSHUALLY ☝️” moment for yourself.

For someone who just does web browsing, sure. That is not the question or ask of this post. Read my comment again.

Well all the Linux distros you see being discussed in this thread for PCs. There’s a much wider array of driver support in the kernel for x86 related hardware. ARM tablets, especially Samsung devices, have speciality hardware. Honestly, you’ll be lucky if you can get past any bootloader issues on a Samsung.

There’s a big difference between an Android tablet and a PC tablet…

Y’all need to really stop recommending immutable distros to people who aren’t even familiar or know what their regular setup will be. Like this poster who even said they are still going to have to work out Windows alternatives.

Imagine that: some scammy motivational speakers who have been peddling a bunch of feel-good bullshit for decades didn’t know how to fix a company that was hemorrhaging money with warm thoughts and regards.

I would have taken that bet.

AGAIN.

This is not “phoning home” as claimed. It is not a SECURITY RISK as claimed. It is a privacy want/complaint/nag at the very VERY least. THIS IS ALSO NOT A PRIVACY FOCUSED PROJECT.

Refer to the original comment, and realize this was being run in a container. So, what…it’s a risk to have libcurl ide tidied on your server? Your IP address is so damn private and important? Literally nobody cares.

Y’all need to get better hobbies, seriously. Probably just need to get off the Internet if this is the stuff causing consternation in your lives.
