I jumped off a cliff for a cheap Black Friday HP-based Chromebook (i3 with 16GB of RAM)

For my day-to-day Linux needs it has been great. I get all my apps/streaming through the play store, and all major SW for Linux works for my coding (VS Code, GIMP, Android Studio).

The current downside: I can run vms on the box (but I likely could run Docker...maybe?), But there's SSH for that.

Mainly it's a drag that the mouse-lock feature hasn't been implemented. So I can't play Minecraft. XD


It's your software needs that are really important.

What distro?

Do you need virtualization?

Are you looking to just have access to bash and unix-like tools?

Windows and Chromebooks fill most of my software needs for Linux... I push whatever else to a cloud, or switch to a more dedicated tower/rig for horsepower.


It's not. It's extended from that.

However, that code won't deal with other things like changing the port, having a built-in index, or having the server run for a discrete amount​ of files to serve.

Also, go is no different than Java: https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/jre/api/net/httpserver.... The server just allows it to be stand alone as an application.


I shared the link, since it was hosting webm based videos like a champ. I figured Fro wouldn't mind :)

The old solution we had been trying was weblite, and that needs all the user-content data to be manually added to weblite. Now I get to be lazy, cross platform, and have stand alone binaries ;)


As seen @ 1:22:53 in Hackers.



LOL I remember that. That was December 2006. So we're starting to getting close to the 10 year mark. Think NBC will renew?


Is it me or is the wrong word being used (0.o)? See -- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microkernel



vi and/or vim elitists... I've always have used nano, but it seems that's not good enough for CentOS/RHEL guys.


I guess we can't Forget(sic) About Dre? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QFcv5Ma8u8k [Explict Version]
