@mcc it's a terrible laptop, it was held by 10$ worth of JB Weld, to keep all the different bits from flying off.  @tim_lavoie @mcc At Hundred Rabbits we run 100% on donated devices. :) -- Sent from x250 thinkpad @tim_lavoie thanks :) I'll be alright unless this one fails too. We're still in Von Donop, the blackberries at coming out so we do the 5km trek through the woods to squirrel cove nearly every day now to pick some :) @neauoire Oh nice! Thanks for the reminder to check on our own blackberries, they've been behind the others in development.  @neauoire I am really trying hard to stop myself from quoting a certain sketch about a particular parrot. Specifically, the line mentioning fjords. Sorry for your loss, hope it's not a gigantic problem!  I forgot what real speed felt like, it's nice to be back on the x250 and building 800 html pages for my wiki in 300ms with uxncli.  @neauoire We need backups preferably ones that have compatible disk media. I'm long RPi4 with passive cooling and SanDisc cards: http://move.rupy.se/file/last_computer.png (though I shamefully have not switched to it as main machine yet) Otherwise I recommed X25-E SSDs with either Atom or Xeon (also passively cooled but with fans on top) from ~2019. Mainstream consumer hardware only leads to frustration. I know the philosophy of reuse and repair; but I'm arguing for build it yourself. @tinspin we don't buy electronics, we try to make due with whatever people donate to the studio. |
@neauoire I continue to love the idea of the pinebook in theory and I continue to keep seeing reasons not to use one :(
I am sorry for your loss, and hope your files live again.
