@l1ghtsword well, he doesnt have a smartphone. well, he did have a nice samsung one, he said he wanted to buy one but that it'd have to be a big one so he could read stuff on the screen, then he bought a big one. 2 days later hesaid he said it was too big and that he didnt want it anymore, so he gave it to my sister

@mushi ubuntu, i choose you!
-
@patentlypaul if you find a "technician" over here who even knows what ubuntu is, i give you 20 dollars
-
@mushi My uncle
-
@patentlypaul by over here i mean in my area. literally the only thing they can do here is formating stuff
-
@mushi Sorry, i live in germany. Here we are working on personal servers running linux https://protonet.info/en/
-
@patentlypaul yeah, and i'm just in a tinny littlr city in the surroundings of brasília =(
-
@patentlypaul i did use ubuntu for a short time in my introducion to molecular modeling class, but we only used it for long enough to open a windows virtual machine
-
@mushi as a kid, i managed to install lego mindstorms (NXT) and 'Enchanting' to program lego robots.
-
@patentlypaul really? that is cool, i never had much contact with computers, even when i first got one in my 12 i couldnt use it much because i had to share it with 2 sisters and my father thought it was illegal to have more than one computer. And now i'm computer illiterate
-
@mushi I first used the computer of my mother booting from a 128GB flashdrive. My mom was first confused what OS was on
-
@patentlypaul 128GB? thats is pretty recent, isnt it?
-
@mushi I just bought it for about 40€
-
@patentlypaul so, if you know about computer stuff, why do we need to safely remove a flash drive but not an external HD?
-
@mushi when I was a kid. Now I have a laptop running windows 8 but always use Ubuntu from external HDD which has more memory inside.
-
@mushi ...than the laptop itself.
-
@patentlypaul Young'un!
-
@scribus it was my uncle
-
@patentlypaul I just mean that if your first computer in any way involved GB, that's a lot more recent than my first computer was.
