Sounds just like using some of the desktop environments made to layer on top of MS-DOS back in 1988-1994 OR using Norton's Commander as the "desktop" on top of DOS....... We even sang a guitar song about DOS and Norton in the 90s. In the song, cheerful Norton deleted (yes, F8) 40 megabyte...

So, which of the Arch variants is most similar to Puppy in its spirit? Well, it's probably Obarun . Without systemd. S6 supervision suite as init and 66 as service management. JWM as windows manager. There is also ArchBang . But there's just an Openbox. In addition, the author's mood, like mine, dep...

Reality check? doesn't use PPM (any more) and isn't called "Puppy" and isn't built with official Puppy woof-CE (though derived a bit from it I gather). Note also, at least as far as I understand them, I also hope that in the future there will be some kind of orderly standard. So far, I've...

These regulators have been available since the '70s so they are cheap and there's tons of information about how to use them. Start by reading the fine print of the data sheet. I have a Chinese multimeter bought for $3. If it burns out I'll buy a new one ;) Flash is right. By the way, electronics fl...

I found such an adapter in the pantry. The only good thing there is the polarity switch But the designation on the case did not always correspond to the correct polarity... "Why, why doesn't it work?! Ah!!! There's a plus and a minus mixed up..."

Is this due to the old age of these power supplies or the 10V higher input current? The capacitors are all dry there. Yes, in the 90s and early 2000s, such Chinese adapters were sold on every radio market. The quality then was you know what. Throw it all out the window. You have the leadership of t...

I did spring cleaning and tidied up GRUB. Yes, boot loader is not exactly a Desktop as required by the topic, but still. Jokes about Resetting and Shutting Down have been added, but they are in Russian. The picture was "expanded" horizontally, because UEFI GOP and, accordingly, GRUB allow ...

If you are in Canada the AI response won't be suggesting a Suicide Hotline but instead the Medical Assistance In Dying hotline. Still, it's probably good to live in a socially developed country. Such concern for people. No one offers me anything. ...That's what I'd like to say :) But no. In the Rus...

@Sofiya The icons of the BeautyLine series are not bad. They don't contain all the ones I need and are a bit "sugary", but I was able to get used to it

The eyes blink. I don't have a very standard palette, but there should be red. Personally, I have abandoned scripts and output everything in its pure form with the zcat command. But scripts are used for window managers, I understand this trouble

Such fun colors, but ANSI-gallows adds a little charm and sets you up in a philosophical way

rockedge Qemu contains a built-in server. Officially. But actually uses the Samba of a real computer :) I'm just making a bookmark on smb://10.0.2.2/shared in the file manager - Caja or PCManFM - inside Qemu. And then I transfer the files. Without a password - only one way, but with a password, of ...

GREED factor The UN There was such a good (not bad :) ) movie in the early 90s. Greedy . So it seems Uncle Joe symbolizes the USA. And his family is the UN. And the uncle does not skimp on antics. And pay attention to the slogan of the film there in the picture on the right ;) And again with an act...

In addition, the application selection menu and the theme selection menu are not called when switching the keyboard layout (for e...

really an anomaly, but I won’t be surprised at anything, the further Arch gets worse, the size of the packages has become very large, and the other changes they made are also not very good.we'll survive this too so far Arch is not so bad

I have electricity and water again. That's why I'm in a good mood again. It means the thread title becomes permanently changed for those who want to reply in future, and makes it much harder to find.

No reason why you can't put a title heading in the post itself. It's easy enough to do, and it would be appreciated by those of us who have to keep cleaning-up behind you... Why do you clean up such little things? If a forum user cannot understand the structure of the forum branches, then you are n...

Where we are going we dont need an init system.

@MinkiTheAvali For the sake of interest. Did I understand correctly that this is a parody of "Back to the Future" ? When Doc says that where they're going, there's no need for roads.

The screenshots were taken directly by photographing the monitor, and not in Qemu - this is not very good. Well, I have to show that it works on real hardware somehow, right? Anyone can make a linux that works on a "486" in qemu by just setting -cpu to 486 but then enabling all the fancy ...

Make some kind of project. I have a second unused Raspberry Pi 3+, a seven-inch screen, a terabyte hard drive & a special adapter board for it. Well, a couple of speakers & an amplifier. According to my quick estimates, this is enough for the device to work for 14 hours. This should be enou...

When trying to open a tar archive in LibreWolf I'm given a choice like in a Russian election: Though with pextract, UExtract and xarchiver there are 3 candidates, LibreWolf offers "Default archiver (default)" Nothing in common :P There were 4 candidates. But three archivers were unknown t...

The second largest country by population in Asia is China. Not only in Asia, but in the World. In addition, Hong Kong and Macau are not taken into account when calculating.

To match the theme for emulators, I moved the cat to the middle. And I added strips simulating the scan of an old monitor. The cat and the stripes are in a separate transparent picture.
