Must have been a long time ago, it was a good thing my old usernames on my sig would come in handy.

It doesn't take us to our old posts unfortunately so anything in the archives will be removed.

I guess the forums are different from what they were 2-3 years ago. I remember last year it was barely active.

It was probably night time for me when it happened so that was meaningless.

[DasCapschen 7,766]

416782

No I didn't

We had one in Germany a few years back tho iirc, saw that one

Womp womp. :c

Hey Caps, what Linux distro would you most recommend? I revived my old laptop from the dead but the Windows install went corrupt and I didn't feel like making a repair disc so I wiped it. I was thinking Ubuntu, but I always go with Ubuntu

When I say I revived my laptop, I mean it wouldn't turn on one day with the power supply connected. And then one day it did. XD

The thing is probably 6-7 years old.

Yes, I do live in Germany

 

Uhm, for an old laptop it's probably a good idea to put Linux Mint or Ubuntu Mate on it. Some lightweight distro like that

Or if you really want to go really lightweight and know exactly what you're doing, you can always install Arch Linux

Ah, good to meet one of Swirly's friends who live in Europe.

Okay, so I found my activity page (stats are gone as well :|) (and where is that Fluttershy :| emoji??)

But anyway, activity shows 25 posts per page, I posted almost exclusively in CtaM, and I got 1084 pages of activity.
That makes me have somewhere around 27.000 posts in CtaM

Well it ran Win 10 Pro without any hang ups. Ubuntu recommends a 2.0 CPU but mine runs at 1.4 because Toshiba. I installed Ubuntu last night and it Seems to run fine. I'll try Mint out and see how I like it.

Oh well, if it runs fine, no need to change it

 

yeah why is this emoji missing?

Guess I have to go to bed, have something important tomorrow, good night.

I mean, I was watching YouTube videos on my laptop while it was installing it's frickin OS.

Why is MS not picking up on this kind of thing?

[DasCapschen 7,766]

416819

haha yeah, no idea

instead Windows shows you a solid color screen with the text "we're installing, please wait"

Anyway, I'll try Mint when I get home. I'm pretty familiar with Ubuntu. 

It's so funny because I picked up Ubuntu pretty quickly. I've used that less than Mac and I'm useless on a Mac. I used to think Linux was reserved only for the nerdiest techies. Like programmers and developers. I thought it operated like DOS before I ever saw it. I never considered that it could be used as a general purpose OS
