Hearted Youtube comments on Veronica Explains (@VeronicaExplains) channel.

  1. Using that Fender pick to remove the NVMe cover is peak awesomeness.

  2. Linux Mint is my daily driver on most of my PCs but I use Pop!_OS on my 2011 Macbook Pro because I felt the elegant aluminum Apple hardware needed something with a bit more graphical flair. Silly reason, I know, but it works for me.

  3. I LOVE my iPod. I restored it, also, and have thousands of my favorite songs - no notifications, no temptation to open TikTok, and no doom scrolling. I put bulk podcasts and audiobooks on it as well. This video was so fun!

  4. Very cool! Changes are scary, I know! I can feel it in your speech (even you’re never saying it clearly)… and I’m very glad you’ve taken that step tho. I hope – even believe – you’re gonna be very happy with your decision. Since I’ve been following your Web content production, I can say that’s “YOU.” Good luck, and go for it!! 🤗 Reach and help everyone you can.

  5. I think Disney is releasing Toy Story films at the same rate that Debian releases stable versions, so I'm not that worried.

  6. All of the Ventoy Bros are wrong - the REAL best way to install an operating system is by booting over the network using a NAS. Why limit yourself to 128GB of Linux ISOs when you can have P E T A B Y T E S But seriously, another great video from Linux Mom :D I'm partial to the 'dd' method myself - something something "console master race get off my lawn".

  7. I’m one of the builders of this OSCR and I just wanted to say thank you so much for the kind words and visibility for this project! We’re so glad you’re enjoying it! You did such an excellent job of covering what an OSCR is in this video; I’ll definitely be sharing it whenever somebody wants to know more about what I’m working on. 😊

  8. Thank you for another video cutting through the noise and just telling us “how to do it.” I’m cloning my laptop to an ISO right now so I have a backup.

  9. "Just enough PERL to be dangerous" sounds like a description of an entire generation of low key hackers and should be the name of your album if you release one haha.
    75
  10. It's good to fix old tech if you have the skills to do it. Great job Veronica.
    75
  11. BAND.
    72
  12. I'm so happy I subscribed to this channel. Love the content.
    69
  13. Reading all these comments makes me wanna NOT use Ventoy.
    67
  14. Man this channel is the coolest. From the 90s educational programming esthetics to the useful Linux tips to the retro fanatics. Creativity in its purest form, beautiful.
    66
  15. I have many wonderful memories using my C64 in the 80's. I had just about every accessory you could get for it. My hobby then and now is astronomy. I would write my own software for recording my observations and photography sessions and store them to a floppy. I still have all those today even the nightly observations of Halley's comet in 85/86. Loved that little computer.
    65
  16. Well this is weird. I was looking up how to clone my Linux drive yesterday. Here you are delivering the content I need
    64
  17. I love it that you just used Super Mario to lure people into the world of Vim! I use Emacs but largely with evil-mode because I nearly destroyed my hands using the standard Emacs key-bindings on a model-m keyboard. Modal editing can do wonders for your RSI.
    63
  18. Thank you for close captioning your videos, and not just using the auto-generated ones. This means a lot to the deaf community!
    61
  19. What happens when they run out of Toy Story characters to name their releases after? 🤣
    60
  20. I hope your channel grows, Veronica. 100K soon enough.
    59
  21. Very well said and I agree 100%. I've been slowly moving my machines back to community distros for years now and this just confirms my mindset. Thanks
    59
  22. Right? It's a hidden gem of a command.
    56
  23. It's a good day when there's a new video from Veronica!
    52
  24. I'm a support engineer at Oracle for the KVM based Oracle Linux Virtualization Manager (OLVM) product and I found this very interesting. Thanks you for taking the time to make this video.
    52
  25. awk? Yes, please!
    50
  26. I liked the video. It looks like it took you more than a day to do it. This demonstrates your commitment to your community and to the task of offering us the best or at least the most complete analysis of your experience. I just want to say, thank you for this.
    49
  27. First! I kinda like the new-ish trend of forgoing "convenience/comfort" for aesthetics, kinda ethics and the coolness factor. I can't wait for pagers to make a comeback half ironically. Love your videos btw!

  28. I prefer `find | xargs grep` because it executes grep one time across all the found files instead of executing a separate grep for each file as find -exec would do. find | xargs grep is often an order of magnitude faster when grepping a lot of files. EDIT: OK I wrote the above before I finished watching the video! And I see the the '+' form of exec does effectively the same thing. Wow I learned something new after using find daily for about 25 years. Thanks!
    48
  29. As a 60year old man I am trying to understand more of Linux. I find the videos that you do very helpful. So thanks a lot !!

  30. Any day with a new Veronica Explains video is a good day. I'm a huge fan of archinstall; I think it encourages more people to try Arch, and that probably leads to an overall better user experience. I'd love a video on btrfs if that's possible!
    48
  31. "Depress the return key?" OK. "Hey, return key! You will never be good enough for your makers to love you!"
    46
  32. Some product manager just loaded this into their llm to create a new manual
    45
  33. I like the choice of books holding the laptops up!
    45
  34. I have horrible news: I think the N64 is probably “vintage computing” now. So… this is more channel appropriate than we may want to believe.
    44
  35. Educational level of your videos is truly astonishing. Absolutely loving almost each and every video you made!
    43
  36. I've used the Fedora Xfce spin since version 28 with no real problems to speak of. I still have it on my backup laptop (in a dual boot with Windows so I can do my taxes once a year), but I moved my primary machine to Debian 11 Xfce (with the non-free network installer) because the constant kernel updates became tedious for me. (And I'm 75 and all those new-fangled things like btrfs make me nervous.) I have VS Code installed on both distros and it works the same, although language versions (e.g., go) are usually newer on Fedora. I added the VSCode repo to get it. I always enjoy your your videos, Veronica. Cheers from Wisconsin.

  37. <-- This Linux n00b appreciates these Lil' Linux Lessons. This Amiga veteran appreciates the Workbench 1.3 cameo as well. ;)
    41
  38. XFCE just released version 4.20. Blaze it up!
    41
  39. I appreciate that you used official documentation! I don't like when people have vague instructions etc, so this was super pleasant!
    41
  40. You've done an outstanding job explaining the unexplainable. And it's great to see you're doing really cool stuff with your setup. Best wishes from a former c64 scener (I ran one of the most acclaimed C*Base BBSes on a c128d with 100MB SCSI HD, 6MB Ramlink, Swiftlink, 56k modem in the mid 90s). I hear that my gear is still used today by someone to run a telnet-enabled scene BBS.

  41. I feel like I won a prize just watching you videos. I'm glad you'd never spam us with Telegram.
    40
  42. I've been missing these videos, with our favourite Debian supporter!
    39
  43. Holy Crap! 30+ years in this business and I just learned about '+' as an argument to find. How much of my life have I wasted to \; ?! Thanks Veronica! You're frickin' awesome!
    38
  44. Arguments? That sounds like something I used to have on social media.
    38
  45. I've been a Linux Mint user for years. You hit the nail on the head when you said, "People just want to use their computers." How true! If I could get MS Office to run on Linux Mint, I could switch my company over to Linux Mint exclusively.
    37
  46. I love this! I miss the spirit of the 90s web too. We had so much fun back in the day. These days it's a different kind of adventure.
    37
  47. Veronica and people like her make the world a great place to live on.
    36
  48. When I saw this, I thought it was going to be click-baity, but damn, was I impressed with this process! Anyone who might not be familiar with booting something on a phone might think it's kind of obvious, but the level of automation in this is next level. Cool stuff, I'll look more into GrapheneOS!
    36
  49. I like this short form. Great for filling an idle 5 minutes.
    35
  50. I just saw a post on Lemmy yesterday about restoring an old iPod, with a clear case and new SSD. I was wondering where you could get parts for this and how it was done... Then Veronica posts a new video explaining everything. What a coincidence!
