Great album, one of my favourites.
Where I’m from Narayan was a summer hit in the dance clubs when it came out, although my friends and I were more into Firestarter and Breathe. I venture saying that it helped bridge punk and dance in a big way.

I’ve got Transmission on my NAS and use Transmission-remote(Linux and android) for the client. Simple, easy to setup and it just works.

This actually looks cool with several robots being supported

I just installed tailscape and it works for my needs. Will read up on your docs. Thx

Well, its a way to preserve music history, show them to younger audiences.
I remember falling asleep to this album when I bought my first Walkman

It’s not just Asia, my parents are from the 1950s, in an European country, and they had the same mentality. Money through hard work was the equivalent of a good life. Our holidays were never fun. No one knew what enjoying life is.

It uses the soulseek network (an old favourite of mine) installed though docker accessible through a browser.
If you want a desktop app, I recommend Nicotine+ for Linux or visit https://www.slsknet.org/news/node/1 for Windows.

The artists I like don’t come around where I live, so I can’t support through live music. I’ve done it in the past when I lived in a large city. In the end we’re all trying our best. And we all have our use cases, there’s no right way to listen to music.

The best way might not be a perfect one. Still a little bit better than most other options.

I live in Europe. Had Spotify for about 5 years, stopped paying and using 6 months ago. I usually buy from Bandcamp, mostly non mainstream music, and download in FLAC and store it on my server. I can stream through the app on my phone when I’m out.
For the ones I can’t find on Bandcamp, or albums from major labels, I tend to find it on Qobuz in MP3. Pricing trends to be similar everywhere.
My pirating nowadays is mainly for old music or establish artists.

I thought it was about the true story of how the USA was built

Si no, quitas la magia al turista de norte de europa. Portugal y España son tan exóticos que solo puedes volar hasta ahí /s

My partner is a long time gamer on Windows. Her Win11 laptop doesn’t have the same performance as mine so I setup a gaming account for both. I barely told her anything on how to “operate” it and after a couple of times she has no problem on her own.
Just now, I came back to the pc and see kwrite open with a message from her. Never told her how to do that. She just searched for “notepad” on the menu like she would on Windows.

Check if this applies to your machine

I work in Windows (company provided laptop) so on average I spend less time on my Linux PC. And I completely agree with you.
KDE as been my go-to desktop because of the familiarity. Some people argue that it has too much costumisation but the defaults give you everything to run a modern PC. While still allowing you to venture into the “terminal”.

I agree

Of course the there is also the stigma of Chinese government telemetry embedded in Deepin

Can we get a CSI style story detailing everything that happened between taking the joint and getting into a murderous craze, and also where dafuq did he get that marijuana? 🤣

I’ve had the same path as you. Arch has been the simplest distro I’ve tried. And with archinstall it’s a breeze.
I’ve also found that Plasma 6 takes away most of the hassle with setting up a desktop - for my use case.
Been using a PC since Win 3.1 and it’s by far the most stable system I’ve ever had
