LemmyTools did try, but development stopped a while back, and it’s pretty broken.

Remember a couple of years ago when Biden just made it illegal for rail workers to strike?
Just pointing out that this king shit didn’t start with Trump, it’s just gone even more off the rails.

The Asus EeePC 1000H that I bought back in 2009 is a 10 inch monitor netbook. 160 GB HDD because I didn’t go with SSD, only came with 1 GB of RAM and cruicially was offered in both Windows XP and Linux flavor which was a bit niche at the time.
Its 32-bit single core (hyperthreading) atom processor is very slow at 1.6GHz, but it can still be used with antiX for my usecase.
If you manage to get hold of one of these old dinosaurs, I’d probably opt for an SSD solution, that’s a pretty big bottleneck.

Good point.

While the stroad seem realistic, seeing a pedestrian carrying groceries doesn’t seem like americana iconography.

I suppose abraunegg’s onedrive does help with creating a config file, but it might still scare away newcomers to linux having to dig around for it. I suppose they’ll need to learn eventually.

That’s a lot of choo-choo’ing

If we’re sharing silly useless projects, I quite like “activate linux”, the configurable watermark inspired by “Activate Windows”.
It’s unfortunately not a strictly terminal based goof, but wanted to share anyway.

This reminded me to install onedrive for linux. I mean, I have 105 GB of free cloud storage on my OneDrive, it’d be dumb not to take advantage of it even though I’ve moved from windows. CLI and systray GUI. The GUI makes it very easy to log in and setup, no need to touch a config file.

It is nice to have guard rails like a GUI until you grasp the possibilities, that’s how I’ve learned historically coming from DOS and Windows at least, but you can still mess things up plenty with this tool.

I switched to linux a little over a year ago and went with MX Linux because they have great GUI tools for windows refugees like myself, and because they don’t like systemd over there they use cron jobs. Now, having switched to Nobara I’ve just installed both SystemD Pilot here, but also found KCron, a KDE Cron configuration module which allows for the same functionality as what I’m used to.
If I just want to setup a “when system starts” daemon, is there really any difference in using one over the other? I guess it’s possible to shut down services more gracefully?

In any case, great job on this utility.
