IDK what Arkenfox is but I’m also noticing problems, hmm. Does duckduckgo.com work for you? Did your reboot help?

This article would be more interesting if it took Grover’s quantum search algorithm into account, and made some kind of physical estimate of its limits. Grover’s algorithm lets you search N items in just sqrt(N) queries.

It took me some moments to figure out that this is an Android launcher. Nice. I guess it will be on droid at some point.

Things just weren’t like that then. Otherwise all PC peripherals would be locked down too, so no device drivers. That was already a problem with cheap windows crap. But the better stuff was documented.

Maybe there would be no Linux but that isn’t as bad as it sounds, since BSD Unix was being pried loose at the time, plus there were other kernels that had potential. And the consumer PCs we use now weren’t really foreseen. We expected to run on workstation class hardware that was more serious (though more expensive) than PCs were at the time. They would have stayed less locked down.

Asded: PCs were an interesting target because there was a de facto open hardware standard, making the “PC compatible” industry possible. So again, without that, we would have used different hardware.

Um no? I’ve helped run a few self hosted video livestreams using icecast though. That’s not for everyone since it presented some technical challenges, but it was way preferable to using youtube.

Get a USB hub (7 port is common), plug the USB drives in, then run a script that copies the iso to one drive after another. USB itself sucks enough that trying to do them in parallel is likely asking for trouble.

I’ve never felt the need for it and didn’t know what it was til just now. dd’ing image files to USB drives has worked fine for me.

I’ll see if I can try that stuff in the next few days but it’s my old phone that I don’t use much anymore.m, and I have some RL stuff going on. Thanks. Yes it is Android 7 for sure.

Thanks, that is helpful. Have you tried building from source on the desktop? Right now I’ve only used the fdroid apk’s. It works on one of my phones (Android 14) but not on the other (Android 7).

Mxroute.com look for a discount offer since they have lots of good ones.

Um ok but is this really a big deal? Good sounding TTS is nice but crappy sounding TTS is good enough for most purposes and is fairly easy. Speech to text is way harder.

Wall of text, couldn’t read. But visit fsf.org for similar principles.
