I am using xfce atm. I might just have to fix my driver problems and do a netinstall

That’s a good idea. I can probably scrounge one up

i have broken the install a few times just deleting stuff. The live disk won’t find my wifi card so i can’t net install unless I buy an ethernet adapter.

I’ve never tried it but i don’t see why not. Let us know what ends up working for you. Your English reads well to me.

I read through your post a few times and it seems like you want the option to use your Persistent storage or just use the stick as a default install live boot medium.

If so, have you thought about using any of the live usbs with persistence and just make multiple users. One where persistence is used and encrypted and one that does not have access to the Persistent partition?

I usually use debian with x on old laptops but I’ve heard good things about gallium being pretty light

Thanks for the long and considered response. I did misread the post header the first time.

I think you make good points but isn’t this thread about lemmy.ml and the OP on lemmy.world?

I’ve been here since the app exodus and see way more posts complaining about tankies than actual tankie unpleasantness in the popular and top posts. I think most people just looking at the popular posts would not come across any more unpleasantness than they’d see on reddit

Yes, Hamas that was elected as a minority party, and took over in a coup before about half of the pre genocide population was even born. The people living in a permanent refugee camp should rise up and destroy the Iranian backed terrorist group. They will accomplish this with all of the supplies that are allowed to come in. I’m sure I just took the bait but I hear actual people make that same argument.

I agree netanyahu’s delegation has walked away multiple times but hamas has too. Sinwar was not the negotiator, he was the military commander on the ground so even when the hamas delegation would make progress all decisions on what goes on in Gaza went through him. He wanted a war and was (at least outwardly, judging by his writing) happy to be martyred.

I am not saying Israel is a good or consistent negotiator in this but Sinwar was a terrorist who was keeping hostages as insurance. He decided to do the attack on 10/7. This was a decision he could not get backing for from his benefactors (as far as has been reported.)

Netanyahu knows that the US will not cut off support for them. It’s not even seriously discussed in the MSM. Bibi will continue to massacre the Palestinians until they are all displaced or dead. This is the only way he is staying in power. His alliance depends on settlers and other orthodox. That being said, maybe more western countries start pressuring him, cutting aid, air dropping food or something now that Hamas’ leadership is being degraded.

“Everyone is quick to decry the scores of thousands of civilians we’ve killed. Where’s the credit when we get one right?”

Sinwar was seen as a big impediment to any deal. Usually just he would decide to walk away from talks, as opposed to a whole delegation like the other parties. Anyway, after being imprisoned for 20 years, several of them in solitary, and writing a book glorifying martyrdom, it seems that he was fully committed to the long term struggle against the Jew and removing him may help end this genocide.

All untimely deaths are sad and a loss of potential. I’ve never heard of this guy but I do know the band was famous for a while. Going on Spotify I didn’t recognize any of the songs though. Either way, balconies are dangerous. If you are young and/or prone to shenanigans or leaning over railings please stay towards the bottom of the building. Don’t let the good times get out of hand!

Can’t you export your library / media settings and only have to change file paths or mnt points?

I’m adding debian to the drive on a ten plus year old laptop as we speak. It’s taking forever because I have to do part of it manually but usually it takes less than an hour and is mostly idiot proof (my current project is on its 3rd week so I am just a special kind of idiot) but a small lightweight distro alongside the windows partition is an easy way to give old hardware new life without migrating data.

I hope he’s okay and they find the rest of him.

I used it on a relatives computer recently. On streaming sports sites it got about 90% of ads but did miss the transparent overlays that open a new page when clicked. UbO handles all of that just fine.

I went through something similar and had my blender sitting for a while. Then I had kids and decided to get on the smoothie train again.

What I found regarding blandness was never add ice, never add water. Use whole milk or heavy cream or half and half. Unflavored yogurt is good and tastes like fruit when blended with frozen fruit. Bananas turn into a smooth thick liquid when blended. Frozen Bananas are often recommended but don’t help texture as much.

To summarize, frozen fruit is already bland and cold, don’t add water or ice. Skim milk is water for this use case so avoid it.

My local big box pharmacy gave me the name brand for the generic price because the generic was backordered. They said they did this based on what the insurance allows. I went there three times in two weeks to ask about an eta before one of the techs suggested we try that. It worked and I had my meds in an hour.
