I've completed "Trebuchet?!" - Day 1 - Advent of Code 2023 #AdventOfCode https://adventofcode.com/2023/day/1
This year's Advent of Code challenge is to solve the problems with GNU Octave. I managed 16 days and 32 stars last year while teaching myself functional programming in JavaScript. Hopefully, I'll make it to day 20 this year. #adventofcode
BTW, Fatdog64 worked pretty well. MX Linux and LMDE didn't detect the keyboard. I was about to try Linux Mint, but when I rebooted Arch to download the install ISO, the sound was working. Since sound was the only issue with Arch, I let it stay.
Took one more step away from Google. I'm posting this from a Chromebook running Arch Linux. (acer CB3-532) With XFCE4, it's surprisingly light on it's feet. With two browser tabs and a couple of other programs running, it's using 1.6 GB of the available 4 GB of ram. The only real drawbacks are the tiny internal storage (16 GB) and the non-standard keyboard. The hardest thing to configure was sound. A little searching lead me to the right packages to install. For my purposes, it's working well. #ArchLinux #Chromebook #byebyegoogle
... and the day after I request an account, the site goes down with a 502 error. It's almost back up now.
Seconded.😜
