I use Vanilla Music. It does folder play particularly in a way I want, where it adds the songs randomly into a queue, which shows me how many songs are left, lets me manually move them around, etc.
It also seems to have a lyrics search plugin, but I don't know if that means lyrics support in the way you want.
As an alternative suggestion, consider using a linux laptop with a drawing tablet.
I use a wacom intuos s with bluetooth to takes notes on xournal++, although rnote should work as well.
Not infinite ram. I'd say double ram, plus there is a noticable, but quick delay when switching to an application that was compressed by ram. But it's much, much faster than switching to an app that was swapped to disk.
Cachyos (arch based distro) does this hy default.
I use cromite, and it's good, but the adblocker is unable to handle the more aggressive popups and ads, whereas firefox + uBO does fine.
Thus, cromite is my main browser and I use firefox for... other stuff. This setup is mainly because I'm too lazy to install Mull or another firefox based browser to be my main option.
Stallman doesn't seem to get that pedophilia is wrong because of the hierarchy of power, and the power imbalances between older/younger people, not because of some inherent wrongness about being attracted to a prepubescent person. This is shown by how he condemns some pedophilia, but is accepting of 12+/past puberty. (I despise this logic, because it would also make gay sex and sodomy wrong, as well).
I find this deeply ironic, because his primary issue with proprietary software is the way that it gives developers levels of power over users. From his article Why Open Source Misses the Point
But software can be said to serve its users only if it respects their freedom. What if the software is designed to put chains on its users? Then powerfulness means the chains are more constricting, and reliability that they are harder to remove.
You would expect someone who is so in tune with the hierarchies that appear with software developers, publishers, and users, to also see those same hierarchies echoed in relationships between people of vastly different ages, but instead, we get this. I'm extremely disappointed.
These failures to understand hierarchy and power, are exactly why Stallman shouldn't be in a position of power. Leaders should continually prove that they understand hierarchy and the effects of their actions on those below them. Someone who doesn't understand how their power could affect another, shouldn't be a leader.
Amazon has a "refurbished" program, where you can find lots of cheap thin clients and smaller form factor desktop machines.
However, the refurbished computers often have their SSD/HDD replaced with a crappy one that is unreliable, so I would recommend assuming that you assume that you will need to buy storage in addition to that.
But, overall I really like Amazon Refurbished because you get a better quality guarantee (warranty/returns), but a cheaper price.
Winlator is really just termux + proot + box64 + wine wrapped in a neat UI (+ controller support). You can, and people have set this up manually before winlator came along. You'll either need termux-x11 or vnc for the GUI.
Mobox is a similar project that does this automatically via a script... but I don't see a license in their github repo, plus they require the proprietary input bridge for touch controls.
As a someone who has used both Arch, and Debian, neither has less or more bugs.
Debian has the same bugs, over the period of their stable release, and Arch has changing bugs (like a new set every update lol).
Yes, Arch is going to get a lot more features. But it comes at the cost of "instability". Which is not so much a lack of reliability but instead, how much the software changes. I remember a firefox bug that caused a crash when I attempt to drag bookmarks in my bookmarks bar around, which lasted for like a week — then it went away.
The idea behind projects like Debian, is that for an entity that needs stability, you can simply work around the bugs, since you always know what and where they are. (Well, the actual intent is that entities write patches and submit them to Debian to fix the bugs but no one does that).
Another thing: Debian Stable has more up to date packages than Ubuntu 20.04, and Ubuntu 22.04. This happens because Ubuntu "freezes" a Sid version, and those packages don't get major updates for a while. So often, the latest Debian stable has newer packages than the older Ubuntu releases.
Termux recently got moved off of the play store (kinda), and is now only available on f-droid/github, because Google was further locking down what they allowed on their store.
And in addition to that, they recently added a restriction in later versions of Android: "Child process limit". Although this limit used to not there, when enabled, it prevents users from truly running arbitrary linux programs, like via termux.
Although the child process limit can still be disabled in developer options, it doesn't bode well for how flexible base android in the future will be, since many times corpos like Google move stuff into the "secret" options before eventually removing that dial all together.
TLDR: Termux has been, and is a thing... for now.
Also, I want to shout out winlator. It uses a linux proot, similator to termux, and has box64 and wine inside that proot that people can use to play games. I tested with Gungeon, and it even has controller support and performance, which is really impressive.
Linus complains the author didn’t submit the patch to some places for public comments and testing BEFORE requesting a merge.
Although a reasonable expectation, I can't find anything about this on the kernel.org docs for posting patches. They seem to imply that you just check and verify your patch before submitting it on the kernel mailing list, but that's it. I didn't see any mentions of mailing lists explicitly for feedbacks or other conventions.
I would use multiple firefox profiles for this. If you go to
about:profilesor use the commandfirefox -Pto launch firefox, you can view and create other firefox profiles. Each firefox profile is essentially it's own instance of firefox, complete with different history, extensions, and setting. You could have a "Netflix" profile and a regular browsing profile.
