I know you didn’t ask but just in case you (or anyone reading this) don’t know about it; Good Lock from the Samsung store. Once downloaded, you can create a routine in the settings app to reconfigure the bixby/power button to do whatever you want
I’m glad my bitterness can bring joy
This just in, Google will he deprecating their phone app fart button in 18 months for the new and improved Android Poots button.
Wait, we’re just now getting word that in 7 more months, Android Poots will be replaced with Google Toots. All 3 buttons will be active at the same time while Google works on feature parity.
You’ll never believe this, insiders are telling us that 4 months after Google Toots, Google will be introducing Google Farts to replace Google Toots. Google Farts will be different than the original Fart button, not sure how but we are expecting it’ll be a worse experience.
And finally, 6 months later, after hundreds of millions of dollars spent, somehow none on marketing, and after generating a healthy user base that defied all odds, Google will begin to shutdown all 4 buttons and lay off all the teams that worked on them.
I always forget. Can we do a release upgrade to this or do we have to wait until 24.04.1?
Edit: Nvm. You can update today

As far as config files go, I haven’t gotten around to automating those so I usually search my nas for old ones and copy/paste what I need
I upgraded to the Pi4 but I use this case. It has a daughter board that lets me use an m.2 SATA SSD over USB. But any USB to SATA adapter should work fine
I’d bet $1 it’s the SD card. My 3B+ used to have the same problem. Been running pis off some sort of SSD ever since, no issues.
He posts infrequently but Sean Hodgins videos keep getting better. Don’t let the thumbnails fool you, he puts a ton of work into them. It’s hard to describe, it’s mostly him showing off his projects but they have an analogue/80s cyberpunk feel in the way he tells his story, the music that’s played, and how he edits the videos together.
In the US, corporations are people
Are you familiar with the watermark they are talking about? How does that express itself; does it show up on models or is it like metadata in a file?
As a hobbiest who’s relatively new to CAD, I wish I liked Shapr3D more than I do. I want to use it on my Mac but everything is multiple clicks away compared to other software and it seemingly has fewer keyboard shortcuts to compensate :/
Also, this is probably user error but I could not for the life of me figure out how to make the spout on teapot for a Halloween costume in Shapr3d. Spent maybe an hour and a half on it. Ended up installing Fusion360 and had it done in about 30 minutes. I don’t know the term for it but getting an extrusion to follow/form to a bunch of different sized circles in Shapr3d wasn’t doing what I expected.
I appreciate what KDE is doing with their DE, I’m glad it exists but it’s not for me either. I only suggest it because it’s surprisingly light on resources for the amount of customization options you get.
Since it’s your first time, my first suggestion is to try Xubuntu (Ubuntu with XFCE desktop) or Kubuntu (Ubuntu with KDE desktop and generally more popular than Xubuntu). Both distributions are lighter on resources and they have an Ubuntu base which means there’s a ton of documentation online so if you run into problems, you will have plenty of resources.
Alpine is small for sure but it is more niche and it doesn’t use systemd which most major distributions use which means if you happen to run into weird issues, your pool of resources will be smaller. Don’t get me wrong, Alpine is great but I wouldn’t recommend it for new users. I don’t know anything about Puppy Linux; maybe it’s fine?
If your machine can’t run Xubuntu or Kubuntu, then worry about trying more niche distros like Alpine or Puppy.
If you run into issues, feel free to ask questions. The community is generally nice but you’ll want to try fixing it yourself first and then including what you tried in your post to get a better reception.
Embrace the terminal. It’s daunting at first but it’s such a powerful tool. Don’t use sudo with every command. Don’t paste random command in the terminal without doing a little research to understand what they do. Again, ask if you need help, you won’t learn everything overnight.
Good luck!
Edit: Linux Mint is also probably a good choice. Never used it myself but I’ve heard good things.
Hardware. I do all my work on a laptop and those Apple M series processors have been amazing for performance and battery life. I’ll stick with a Mac until those Qualcomm X Elite CPUs start getting shipped in Windows laptops next year. After using this Mac for the past year, I think I prefer Windows and WSL over MacOS or Linux. This whole post only applies to laptops though; Linux on desktop and servers for life.
Plex
At the time, Windows was updating and restarting whenever it felt like it which would stop my Plex server from running until I logged back in. Windows and Macs are now just thin clients that allow me to connect to all my Linux servers.
I’ve seen some youtubers recommend OnShape. It’s a browser based CAD app so it should work fine.
