just watching a gay newzealander called "Banjo" who is living in the outer hebredies. this is maybe the best of UK BBC TV right now.

^we watched that too a while ago. Was good.
Really brought home for us the freedom of - and yet the reliance on - vehicles in the great US of A (and hell, anywhere.)
ie your life is in a van.. and that van doesn't start then, well fuck you essentially.

I was listening thinking ok early 80s late 70s. New york. not american though.. then I read the 'liner' notes LOL nice. All my kids without prompting from me love this sort of feels like coke soaked laate 70's NY disco c.f : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yVuAIfRj9N8 huh was recorded in san fran - ...

^ preach

LOL I only know it as I searched for an acid house artist called the exact same thing - this is waaay better though LOL

LOL macos is acceptable.
Well crunchbang and any potential sucsessors all attracted us here in the first place more or less.
I had to fall back due some corp bullshit on my macbook. The X1 yeah the 2011 twenty fucking eleven X1 did the job more or less OK all day...

macos makes a fucking mockery of them rounded corners.
wasn't that once up on a time a bit of a joke on some WMs?
mac terminal is so anal it will not go 'full page' it will retain the nearest char (as in terminal chars) proportions, which.. on one hand I hate and one hand I sort of respect.

yup :D
classic film :)

We watched "The green knight" which was OK.
I may have googled a few reviews/explainers which helped make more sense of it than I was getting.
Great shots, good acting, weird plot (but then so was the book lol)

Thanks Slob I knew you would come in with some of that Apple Knowhow :D I have no idea about mosyle. I do Know that it hasn't interfered (so far) with my admittedly left field choices on stuff and method of install :D pretty sure it can be tweaked. We don't (for the moment) enforce a lot really. We ...

^ the display is nice - I've had the M1 I got from the company expenses scheme and the M2 next to each other and man does the M2 does some NITs in my highly scientific test. I got the old X1 out the other day, still up to date with debian and i3 :) The screen (from 2012) looked like a bad photocopy ...

So work provided me with a new apple Mac book pro M2 16G 512G 14" It's absolutely splendid hardware , I just wish that it didn't have macos on it LOL (it's fine really nothing 'wrong' per se (full screen is a mess and the new stagemanagerr is rubbish, and after 10 years of linux almost nothing ...

oh wow yeah happy birthday baconman!

We watched "The English" on Iplayer. Thought it was very good. It was a kinda classic western with some more modern ideas over 6 episodes.
Loverly scenery and acting we thought was top notch.

Big shocker, but I'm using MacOS now.

I'll not pretend to understand all of this thread :D But I wsa listening to a podcast (cyber by VICE) and they were talking about ISPs trading data, with various organisations, which reveals the netflow data, which I presume includes your initial connection to the ISP - before you jump to the VPN? T...

Yeah I only d/l kids films anyway - then close the torrent once it's done. Hardly amazing security but not been hit in the 6 years or how long i've used it

I happen to have a VPS - so I use that with rtorrent - never had any DCMAs.
I d/l at ethernet speeds... then download back down from there to the home server to view on the TV. It does need a lot of maintenance though.
So yeah it's not perfect as anything would lead right back to me.

Awesome Ivan! I was happy to point out what I thought was the start - but did not want to get the thread cutters out (I've never done it ) :D
Looks great.

Gutterslob, perhaps yes leave as the natural evolution of the thread. Definitely better broken out though - nice work !

Seems like a clean cut to me? From here https://linuxbbq.com/bbs/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=965&start=1480#p63896 onwards really. Perhaps the OP(s) could collate the excellent info already here, once in a new thread? I know the principles of all this, just can't be fucked to do it as in actually im...

Lol - That is a childs hand in the picture :P
it was pretty big though.
