I won some Tupperware at bingo in the church basement when I was nine years old.

I have a similar one as well for debian-based operating systems...

dist-upgrade() {
    sudo apt update && sudo apt dist-upgrade && sudo apt autoremove
}

To get this to work without a password, i dropped a file in /etc/sudoers.d that allows anyone in the sudo group to sudo apt without a password.

root@tux:~# cat /etc/sudoers.d/apt

# Cmnd alias specification
Cmnd_Alias COMMANDS = /usr/bin/apt, /usr/bin/apt-get, /usr/bin/dpkg

# Use apt commands without a password
%sudo ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: COMMANDS

Same for me using Boost on Android. It looks like Reddit only without the bots and AI slop.

Same. I used it for so long on reddit that I jumped as soon as the Lemmy version was available.

I am a network engineer and have used Linux as my primary desktop os since 2000 or so. With the bona fides out of the way, I picked up an Acer Chromebook Plus from Costco for $250 and I think it's a great deal for the money (it's currently on sale for $200). It has 8 gb memory, 512 gb storage, 8 cores, etc. Most important, it has a native linux environment that lets me install Linux apps, including GUI apps in case you prefer other browsers like Librewolf over Chrome.

Is it the best laptop on the planet? No. Is it the best laptop you can buy new for $200? Probably.

I got my license in the early 80's, and at that time the cheapest cars were older american beaters with utterly terrible 2 and 3-speed slushbox automatics. The alternative were Japanese cars like Honda Civics, small, reliable, manual transmission cars that got great gas mileage and were way more fun to drive. All these years later I'm still driving a manual, currently a 2021 Toyota Corolla. It's paid for, it gets around 35 mpg, and with regular maintenance it will run until the end of time.

I know American cars have improved a lot since the malaise era but you generally can't get them with manual transmissions, so I'll stick with the imports for now.

I'm guessing the Harris campaign wants muted mikes as well and are manipulating the very stable genius into going along...

I used Boost for reddit for years, so I switched Boost for Lemmy as soon as it became available. It's not free, iirc it was $3 or $4, but it works well and I've had zero issues with it.

I have a Yahoo email account from the mid-late 90's...

With a hardtop! Nice.

We've had the youtube premium family bundle for several years, mostly for android auto in our cars. I switched to Firefox around that time as well but found it didn't work as well for youtube. So I compromised by using Chrome for youtube and Firefox for everything else. I will continue this way for the time being, but honestly getting rid of Chrome completely would not be a big deal at this point.
