  • Video Game Physical Software and Hardware Sales Just Had the Worst November in the U.S. Since 1995 - IGN

  • and of course, this will be misconstrued. The executives will shout "look! people don't want physical ownership!" and the push to digital rentals will continue... and result in even higher prices when they pull a Netflix.

  • I had used Lubuntu to rescue an underpowered laptop back in community college. At university, I was on the campus tech support team... and ended up "the Linux guy" for the few foreigners who had installations (I knew how to run apt and that's about it). Out of uni, I ended up in a career supporting RHEL. Of course Raspberry Pis skyrocketed in popularity as well, so I got to sink my teeth into a Debian-derivative and blow up a few installs without having to worry about change management.

    When time came to build a system in 2025, I figured I'd try it as an experiment. I stumbled at first and learned Debian does not play well with new hardware, but after switching to Linux Mint it's been nearly painless. Most of the software I had been using in Windows was already open source (because I couldn't afford to buy software), so almost everything migrated 1:1. Excluding Winamp... :(

  • ...and I'd like to add, if they are showing ads relevant to the website you are on, you are clicking those ads and thus giving away what interests you really have.

  • I will never understand why they removed the bluetooth tap to toggle, and replaced it with an open to a separate screen. That's what long-press was for!

  • To me, yellowed plastic is a badge of honor. Old age comes for us all.

  • Canonical extends Ubuntu LTS support again - if you pay

  • You should have seen the panic back in 2017 when my team found a cluster of Server 2003 running at a hospital.

    The client thought it was fine.

  • x86/32bit to try on an old Acer one nettop intel atom CPU N270 @ 1.60GHz 2GB ram

  • I just hit the same issue a few days ago. So Debian 12 (Bookworm) still has i386 support, but that support may end as soon as next year as they haven't confirmed i386 as an architecture for LTS.

    If you do go with Debian, you can easily choose a lightweight desktop during installation.

  • I'm really curious if it'll stick around even longer given how slow tech advancement has become.

  • MPV: The Ultimate Self-Hosted Media Solution You're Probably Sleeping On

    Jump

  • One of my favorite remotes had the sources split across the top. Composite, Component, VGA, HDMI. And if you hit the button twice it'd cycle through the different ports of that type.

    Never found a remote like that again. Now they just throw a menu to slowly browse through.

  • It's 2025, And We're Getting A Brand New 8-Bit Game Console

    Jump

  • I saw these guys at Portland Retro Gaming Expo. I played the demo a tiny bit, and while it was interesting in a way... it felt a bit too early to be showing to people. Maybe it was the 3D printed stuff that made it amateurish.

    That said, if I am recalling correctly, the was open-source (oh I found the site and it is) so maybe that whole booth was to demonstrate how someone could build their own unit.

  • 28 years and there is still nothing close to it. Either they focus too much on flight like Zone of Enders and Daemon X Machina, or they ground it too hard like Front Mission Evolved. No happy middleground.

    I really thought with the success of Fires of Rubicon that we'd get a decent attempt at a clone.

  • LXQt 2.3 Desktop Environment Released with New Features and Enhancements

    Jump

  • I didn't look too far into it yet. I know that Bookworm is good until 2026, though there is a big TBD on whether i386 is part of the 2028 LTS. I guess I have a minimum of another year to figure it out. Not that I do much with 2008 hardware to begin with.

  • LXQt 2.3 Desktop Environment Released with New Features and Enhancements

    Jump

  • I JUST got done posting about LXQt rescuing old hardware earlier today, found out about this news, booted up my laptop to perform a Debian Trixie upgrade in preparation... only to find out that my Pentium M is too old to rescue. Debian dropped i386.

  • so instead of defaults I think you want noauto,nofail

    Then it shouldn't automatically mount, but at the same time won't throw you into emergency mode if it fails to detect the drive.
