They’re famous for selfies.
They look like they’re always smiling.
People call them the happiest animals on Earth.
But when danger comes for their babies…
They don’t fight.
They don’t protect.
They throw their babies at predators and run.
That’s right — mother quokkas have been observed tossing their joeys out of their pouches to distract predators while they escape.
It’s brutal.
It’s cold.
But it’s survival.
Scientists call it “infant abandonment as a defense mechanism” — and in quokkas, it’s instinctive.
The moment they sense they’re beieing ruthless does. jettison the baby and run for cover.
No last look. No hesitation.
Because in the wild, being cute doesn’t keep you alive.
Being ruthless does.
Yeah, I started on Ubuntu, got acclimated to Linux using it, went to mint, didn't give me what I wanted and just dove into arch, been running the same install for 8 years now and honestly don't want any more from my os... I also love my steam deck.. It runs arch BTW 😉
I don't mean yo undermine your design but I was recently looking for like a modular pegboard type thing and found printy panels pretty cool, https://www.printables.com/model/859807-printy-panels I am going to design something similar using that consept
I run arch BTW, 7 years throwing it down stairs, running commands that I had no idea what they did, learned linux from scratch deleting chunks of my hdd compiling and installing random software, never once had it break bad enough to reinstall . I bet you love ltt too haha... maby you should stick to a beginner os like Windows, I've heard Apple is even easier... or why don't you just pay someone smarter than you to host and troubleshoot your os while they market your info and habits to the highest bidder... oh wait
Tbh, I don't really notice it, it hasn't got a dedicated gpu and it lives mostly idle, I use it as cloud storage and a media server aswell as other server apps such as teamspeak and I'll set up a game server every once in a while.. I love having it
Nice pick up, my boss said I could have a dual xeon server tower with 96 gb of ram and 20 Tb hdd space for a slab... nice little upgrade to my home server haha
Search wireless pc remote on Amazon, they have a trackpad scroll wheel and media controls and theyre about the size of a smartphone in landscape with full qwerty keyboard, they're fantastic, I bought one for every TV in the house... connected to old mini pc's
I use old Intel nucs or just mini PC's in general put debian or whatever you want on them paired with an Amazon wireless keyboard and trackpad, I think I searched wireless pc remote on Amazon, and blamo you have a media centre pc... if you use plex they have a desktop app or a media center version of it you you can boot into on boot which is great because I don't need to launch it everytime. Plus when I press any button on the keyboard it wakes up the TV and pc seamlessly... honestly it's fantastic, I have a smart TV that cost way too much because I exclusively just use the pc connected to it
