Depends on your OS, but symlinks can do that for you - file exists once, but multiple “files” link to it. The application (torrent client) doesn’t care.

Or you can do a reverse Hannah Montana, take the worst from both worlds, combine them, and release Duke Nuken 4ever
In case someone else actually has to look this up: Yes, this is the guy you remember as “Puff Daddy”.
“All About the Benjamins” and “I’ll be Missing You”, etc…
So for the next 20 years all AAA game publishers will do the game equivalent of only releasing MCU/DC reboots, sequels and prequels?
MySpace Tom comes to mind. Bless that guy.
Well, we could agree on those two things, at least…
…and they’re gonna make the volcanoe pay for it.
Something about volcanoes not sending their best. Look at ehat happened to Pompeii
I’ve had plenty of rants about Norwegian broadband (or lack thereof) over the past 25 years. It’s a bit of a long story, but the gist of it is that during the 90’s there was this one company (Telenor) which had practical monopoly on telecom (it was the private remnant of what used to be part of the government), and of course they didn’t want to develop broadband 8nfrastructure as the made shitloads of money by selling ISDN at the time. Broadband was available in the biggest cities only, and even there it was limited. And the punchline of that joke was that when I was on dialup I had to pay by the minute. During that time, hearing about not having to pay by the minute in the US sounded like paradise to me.
But luckily competition happened, and Telenor realized they had to allow modernization or be left out of the market entirely. Small communities could sign up to have broadband “delivered”, and once enough people had signed up for an ISP to considet it profitable, digging would start. Today, twenty years later, I’m pretty satisfied with how it turned out. I live practically in the middle of nowhere, in a tiny industrial town sqeezed to fit into the terrain, where three of the cardinal directions are blocked by mountains and the fourth being a fjord. And I have 1gbit both up and down.
Ouch, I was not aware of that. Here in scandinavialand we have a few local or regional ones in each area, plus a few big ones that cover the entire country.
Once the fiber is in the ground, “any” ISP can use them, regardless who buried it. I think it’s a remnant from 20ish years ago when the default was ADSL over copper, and the telecom cables were considered public infrastructure.
Install steam and test which of your games will run in mint. Some might require proton, but I’m sure you’ll find that you don’t need that many reboots.
In my opinion, the full potential of linux is gained via the command line. The GUI is just an abstraction layer, and various distros have various approaches to this abstraction. Comman line familiarity is far from a necessary step, but it sure is a useful one.
Yr.no has an API that is free. https://developer.yr.no/
I have exactly zero experience in what work a law office does, but I would think it’s mostly paperwork and email? If so you can do that at no startup costs.
Pick a distro (pop, mint, whatever), and install libreoffice or one of its many variants for offfice integration.
A common misconception is that linux involves a lot of coding. Sure, it can if you want to - all the hooks for programatical access are there, for example if you want to build shell scripts for automation. But you don’t need to. It’s just an option many linux users, myself included, like to take advantage of.
When it comes to convincing you, all I can say is this: It costs you nothing to try.
Unless they’re willing to give you your own IP (dynamic, or maybe static for a fee), that’s a good reason for replacing your ISP imo.
Or migrate to blender
It doesn’t have to be fancy as long as you have a practical use case. And it’s worth mentioning that the “fancy” stuff is often easier on linux than on windows.
Awesome! I’m one of the guys peer pressuring you in the other thread, and I’m glad to see it worked.
It also just so happened that you went for the same distro that I use on my desktop.
What’s going to be the primary use of this laptop other than having linux installed? Any projects or use cases in mind? I’m asking because I found out some time around the turn of the century hat the best way to learn linux is to use it for something one would otherwise do in Windows.
Again: Reagan.
He fired pretty much all ATCs striking for a decent wage, and the industry never really recovered. Low wages result in low recruitment.
Factorio. Sure, it’s universally hailed as a great game, but I still call that underrated. Yes, I’m a cracktorio addict, how could you tell?
Plus the dev-hours spent combating ad blockers are billable. My hours aren’t.
I was thinking the same thing. Spanning tree is love. Spanning tree is life…when deployed correctly.
Alternatively I’m thinking noise, as I’ve seen that in 10gig connections a few times, which is why I prefer LC fiber where possible.
