It's the same error if I try VANILLA or GAPPS

[SOLUTION] It works after you enter a password using "lxpolkit".

Mine:

1. JoJo's Bizzare Adventure
2. Monster
3. Vinland Saga

The distro family trees are like different pantheons.

Distros are like individual gods. Community developers are priests and end-users are the commoners who pray for blessings, good fortune, and happy lives. Priests direct the prayers of commoners to their respective gods.

There is the Debian pantheon, ancient gods of peace and stillness.

The Arch pantheon, progressive gods that bring revolution along with a bit of chaos.

The Red Hat pantheon, gods tha- wtf am I writing?

Just installed Feeder from F-Droid. The app is empty right now.

What global news source with RSS do you recommend that's not spammy and mostly unbiased?

I got interested after I saw Jotaro mention it in JoJo's Bizzare Adventure Part 3.

This show is a timeless gem. I really liked first 3 or so episodes, but the "car exhaust" monologue at the end of maybe the fourth episode made me fall in love with Columbo.

Please watch it if you haven't yet. If it's your type of show, you're missing out big time.

And one other thing: I'm only on episode 5 so please spare me some spoilers in the comments 😅

For me it's DJ Peach Cobbler. I've been watching his videos since he had around 2,000 subscribers. Now it's nearly 450,000.

He used to mostly make videos on games, now he does a lot of history stuff too. He also has a little satirical news show, and a few tasteful shitposts. A really diverse YouTube channel.

What's your favorite YouTube channel that's not a mainstream big-name like pewdiepie, mrbeast, ksi, etc...?

I'll probably watch it once, have some dumb fun watching it and move on.

Also the opening line in the new official trailer "As a child, I yearned for the mines" is just.... chef's kiss had me rolling xD

Who knows? I might get to extract some fun out of the cringe dialogue and uncanny CGI.

I don't understand why it gets THAT much hate though, before it's even released. Maybe it's just the internet amplifying everything.

May be very shit opinion, feel free to disagree / attempt to correct

What if protonmail, gmail or whatever email provider you are using goes belly-up? Are all your accounts doomed?

If so, what are some preventive measures? Adding backup emails to your registered accounts?

This laptop was originally sold with Windows 7 32-bit edition installed. Even back then it was really unresponsive and clunky. After several years of it lying around and being useless, I decided to do a really lightweight debian install on it.

And guess what? It can do so much more than sit idly in some landfill.

Now I can use it to write my study notes in neovim (gives me a good excuse to learn vim, and I'm learning slowly), listen to music with gst123, learn c and c++, torrent large files with transmission-cli and qbittorrent, and the list goes on....

I mostly just use tty. I hit "startx i3" if I absolutely need a GUI, but for everything else, tty. I use links2 for Wikipedia, online resources and browsing memes which is already a big chunk of my internet usage. I was really giddy when I saw Tor browser had a 32-bit version, it runs surprisingly well even with less than 1 gigabyte of memory (unless I visit some really bloated sites)

I can't play videos though, that's the one major thing it can't do. The integrated GPU is unsupported so playing videos or 3d-gaming is out of the question.

BTW is there a lemmy instance/frontend I can use via CLI or links2?

This is an Acer Aspire one laptop, with a 32 bit CPU and Debian 12.7. Whenever I install Linux on it, the Internet works for about one day. And when I boot it up the next day, it just stops working. This is the case for WiFi, Ethernet and USB tethering via Android.

After running networkctl it gave me this:

I can ping 8.8.8.8 in this state, but not gnu.org. I can't open websites in Firefox either.

Then I ran "sudo systemctl start systemd-networkd". The networkctl output changed but everything worked exactly as the above two images. Couldn't open websites still.

Yesterday everything was working perfectly

Edit: Thanks to @nanook@friendica.eskimo.com and @MyNameIsRichard@lemmy.ml I finally have internet access on my 12-year old e-waste!
