EXTRA:

Just found this post that outlines the initial efforts/hacks, to port Rockbox to the iPod.

Excellent morning news.

ROMs to turn portable-mp3-players libre.

Great project, congrats to devs on the 4.0 milestone!

[Currently listening with Rockbox on 512GB iPod]

Ubuntu minus the binary-blobs and corpo-junk = the good distro of Trisquel

toothbrush mentioned above that the limits may apply if you use Limesurvey’s hardware.

No limits if you self-host.

The limit you reached seems to be at odds with the Limesurvey docs.

I haven’t used Limesurvey recently to know if it works at large scale without restrictions, maybe someone else can weigh in.

How are you defining ‘large scale surveys’?

There were no scale restrictions on V1 when I used it, how is V2 restricted?

From the Limesurvey features page:

LimeSurvey 2.x currently offers:

Unlimited number of surveys at the same time

Unlimited number of questions in a survey (only limited by your database)

Unlimited number of participants to a survey

The same car mod term in the 50s was ‘hotrodding’.

The wiki page for Red Dye 3:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erythrosine

Erythrosine is restricted as a food additive in the European Union, China, United States, and the United Kingdom.

Its usage is limited in Australia, and New Zealand.

Walked under this, in the opening year, at the Turbine Hall.

Got a real feel for what War of the Worlds, The Tripods(1984), and The Triffids are trying to convey.

People are mentioning ‘OOM Killer’ which may have similar features, I have not tried it out.

I’ve had this on previous laptops, and gave up on using Sleep mode, just used full shutdown every time.

Once fully frozen, it’s not really able to be saved.

Is it a full freeze? Press CAPS-LOCK or NUM-LOCK to see if the hardware is still responding.

If it is, it might just be a DE freeze. Try to SSH into into your frozen device, from another PC or phone.

Or press CTRL-ALT-F7 to see if you can switch to a terminal and login.

Once in, use ps -ef, or top to see and kill what might be causing a freeze.

Turn on auto-save in LibreOffice(you usually only lose a sentence or 3 words with this on).

Investigate IDEs with auto-backup or an autosaved change-history.

–//–

To diagnose whether you have bad RAM, boot from a LiveUSB distro and use it for a day or week.

If no freezes, reinstall a fresh OS.

If it still freezes, get new RAM, or replace whole PC/laptop.

It is an incredible solo-effort, with largely simplistic features.

As a usable OS, it’s a fever-dream curiosity.

Trisquel is a fully ‘Free as in freedom’ distro.

Zero telemetry now or in the future.

Ubuntu based, so large FLOSS package repository.

Mate UI, simple user friendly layout.

* You will need hardware that works with fully free hardware drivers (for printer, WiFi, GPU etc). Drivers with binary-blobs are not included, due to potential security risks or spyware.

Test your hardware with a bootable USB.

you can put down buildings while on pause.

Now this! is a pro-tip. Thanks!

Fully free distro list

If you know how to source hardware that uses fully-free drivers, they are worth a look.

Guix and Parabola also look interesting.

You probably didn’t even know it’s pronounced Jimp too!!

MATE (prn: MAH-Tay)

because it comes with standard Trisquel and is a smooth DE experience.

My guy, circuit-bending is usually only for music.

That’s what my favourite font uses, behold MULI !
