Even a potato can run linux if you try hard(er) enough.

I'm typing this from my orange pi zero 3 w/ dietpi installed... aaaaaaand I don't really "hate", but more like "not care about it anymore". Sure, its privacy concerns are truly a nightmare, but eh. It's good to have options, that's all. Even if one said "options" can be more harmful than good.

Title. More specifically, for the orange pi zero 3. It has a mali-G31 gpu. Thanks in advance.

tl;dr

Editing;

$photoortexteditoryoulike $(find / -iname incompletefilenam*)

Running;

exec $(find / -iname incompletepackagenam*)

Interacting (copying, moving, etc);

$desiredinteraction $(find / -iname desiredfileorpackag*) /desired/output/directory

It may be a "not-so-attractive" tip for most of you, but I find it really useful when I want to edit a specific file (that is located alongside several ones, like a picture or a text file). Or when I've finished compiling something and I want to find the binary file asap. Saves me lots of time on really slow pcs (like a rpi zero).

Title. Basically, a lower panel that shows the latest news, etc (fetched from a rss link or a sequence of rss links) while scrolling left (ala CNN). Why? I'm trying to make a "smart clock" of sorts that shows a live stream, a real time clock and -also- the latest news -- all crumbled together in a single screen.

I'm using a orange pi zero 3 w/ Dietpi installed. And due to the expected "crazyness" of this idea, I had to resort to you guys.

Thanks in advance.

Title. I'm trying to come up with a fully functional, optimal yet read-only scheme for fstab and I could use some pointers.

Thanks in advance.

Title. Been using "conventional mouses" since a while, and I'm in the mood to try something new. Even so considering its a ergonomic mouse that won't screw my wrists even more while gaming(I'm over 40 y/o).

There are plenty of reviews for it on the internet (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2_2wixvrWPg&pp=ygUVcmFnbm9rIG1vdXNlIDIgcmV2aWV3 for instance) but I'd like to hear some "real world" reviews about it.

Title. In other words, sbc recommended/optimal power supply is 5V4A but I use an 5V3A instead -- will it damage or kill the sbc? The reasoning behind this is "an direct undervolting towards the system, for lower power draw and temps".

Thanks in advance.

I know this seem like a typical "Your opinion man" post but honestly, is there anything really useful beyond hosting an adblocker? (read: complementary, not found elsewhere, that enhances own's personal needs and/or life as a whole). And yes, I'm aware of what can be hosted -- picture editors, video editors, webtops, dhcpcd, emulators, and so on.

But the question is -- why I'd need all that if these stuff can be found on any ordinary PC out there? Even phones. Hell, even on a smart tv. That is like "trying to reinvent the wheel" for no necessary purpose other than "to look cool". There's also "because its fun", but is it really fun doing pretty much the same thing over and over again? There isn't a "learning gap" between these hosting options -- all of em have (pretty much) the same procedure to get things running.

With that said... I've been trying really, REALLY hard to host more stuff but I can't go beyond hosting (only) an adblocker.

"But can Linux install things via a single .exe file? HAHAH EAT IT NERD!"

"Honey! Our TV isn't showing up channels!"

"Gee, fine. Hold on."

ssh [email protected]
cd /sys/devices/tv/channels
cat channels_list
[none]

Ah, *beep.

I'm unironically considering ditching any online interaction(s) on the internet and use my PC solely for offline content (write documentaries, texts, play retro games). Because I really don't want to use the internet with that level of intrusion in my pc.

Wha? Even a bleeping potato can run Linux nowadays, with zero issues at day 1.

t. Got a Orange pi zero 3, and the lil' bastard is rocking solid -- even with (near zero) support.

So you are telling me that really soon I'll have genes inside me removing cancer and even "fixing" some "unfixable" things like poor eyesight and even brain-related ones? Sign me up.

If someone does not take the least amount of effort to answer a simple question like that one .... then he doesn't care about you in the slightest.

"But its a generic question!"

Two words: common courtesy.
