The whole Recall thing is what finally made me get off my lazy ass and make the jump to Linux. I chose PopOS, and I've been very impressed with the out-of-the-box experience. Between Steam and Lutris, I can play just about any game I want to.

It feels like I actually own my laptop now.

I told one of my friends that Walz looks like the kind of guy that if he came over to your house, he'd find something to fix.

PopOS for me. I have played around with Linux in the past, but never seriously dived into it. The whole Windows 11 Recall fracas changed that. I went with Pop because it's an out-of-the-box distro. Everything just works, and it has Nvidia and AMD graphics support baked in. I used to not like Gnome, but it's kinda growing on me now. Then again, that's the beauty of this OS: Don't like the desktop environment? Download a new one from a bunch of alternatives. Current distro not floating your boat? Make some bootable USB drives of different distros and take them for a test run.

It's a beautiful thing.

I dunno. I like their earlier stuff.

I'd take a sandcrawler over a cyber truck any day of the week.

I regret upgrading to 11 on my home machine. I want to either go back to 10, or just migrate to Linux Mint. Only two things stopping me from jumping is a) My graphics are Nvidia, and b) making time for it.

Forgive me if I am hijacking the thread, but does anyone have a recommendation for a chair that can accommodate a big dude? Like 330 lbs or so? I ordered one off Amazon, and it didn't last 6 months.

 

Sorry! Didn't know where else to post this! Anybody surprised by this one?

Try LibreWolf or Floorp.

Most definitely! You even get those features in the free tier.

 

Lyrics:

Marvin, he was a friend of mine And he could sing a song, his heart in every line Marvin sang of the joy and pain He opened up our minds, and I still can hear him say "Aw talk to me, so you can see, what's going on" Say you will sing your songs forevermore

Gonna be some sweet sounds, coming down on the night shift I bet you're singing proud, I bet you'll pull a crowd Gonna be a long night, it's gonna be all right, on the night shift You found another home, I know you're not alone, on the night shift You found another home, I know you're not alone, on the night shift

Jackie, hey what you doing now? It seems like yesterday when we were working out Jackie, you set the world on fire You came and gifted us, your love it lifted us higher and higher Keep it up and we'll be there at your side Say you will sing your songs forevermore

Gonna be some sweet sounds, coming down on the night shift I bet you're singing proud, I bet you'll pull a crowd Gonna be a long night, it's gonna be all right, on the night shift You found another home, I know you're not alone, on the night shift Gonna be some sweet sounds, coming down on the night shift I bet you're singing proud, I bet you'll pull a crowd Gonna be a long night, it's gonna be all right, on the night shift You found another home, I know you're not alone, on the night shift Gonna miss your sweet voice, that soulful noise, on the night shift We all remember you, your songs are coming through And at the end of a long day, it's gonna be okay, on the night shift You found another home, I know you're not alone, on the night shift

 

"Everything that goes around Comes around..."

 

I still miss him.

 

This features the unmistakable voice of the late, great Teddy Pendergrass.

 

Moar 70's soul!

This song was featured prominently in the film Car Wash (scenes from which comprise the video). Perfect for romancin' your SO!

Aaaaaawww yeah.

 

Any old school soul fans in the house? 😁

 

I wish you all the very best on this Krishna Janmashtami.

Jai Sri Krishna! 🙏 🕉️

 

Sri Krishna Govinda Hare Murare He Natha Narayana Vasudeva He Natha Narayana Vasudeva

Sri Krishna represents the pure Self, the center of Consciousness, the way to the Divine, Narayana. “Govinda” refers to Krishna as the loving protector of humanity. “Hare” indicates the removal of suffering; “Murare” denotes Krishna as the destroyer of demons within; “He Natha” means “O Master (Lord)”; and “Vasudeva” is the Supreme Being who permeates all.

 

One of the greatest break-up songs ever written.

Lyrics:

It makes perfect sense Seeing how the seeds were sown To find you out there on your own You said your goodbyes And broke all the ties It struck me dumb To think I tried for you Tonight you can feel The seasons changing You'll never change When you're no better than the weather You're cool But there's rain in your heart You're blowin' like a feather

And that's the oldest story in the world You lost the key to paradise That's the oldest story in the world

Did we have it made? Somehow I thought we could remain If nothing lasts No one's to blame And you can't look back To where you got off the track That's a mystery that we'll never crack

It's just the oldest story in the world We lost the key to paradise That's the oldest story in the world Someday we gotta to set it right And that's the oldest story in the world You'll hear it again and again That's the oldest story in the world, yeah

Somehow I thought we could remain If nothing lasts No one's to blame And you can't look back To where you got off the track That's a mystery that we'll never crack

And that's the oldest story in the world Lost the key to paradise That's the oldest story in the world Someday we gotta to set it right That's the oldest story in the world Just like a rolling stone That's the oldest story, that's the oldest story Now you can't go home And that's the oldest story in the world, yeah

"Well, I don't want to leave But it's time to go" "Where?" "Well, I just don't know" And that's the oldest story in the world
