Short answer: GeyserMC sidesteps that player authentication process Java players need to do

Long answer:

I've used and set up GeyserMC before. It sounds like the server you're joining has online-mode on, which requires all Java players who are joining to have a valid Java account and current authentication.

GeyserMC, being a mod to the server, entirely sidesteps this entire process. Your Bedrock cracked client requests to join and GeyserMC, being the way your client communicates with the server, just let's you in. It just sends your client the chunks, the entities, etc. and lets you interact with them, and Java players are shown an additional Player entity (being you).

GeyserMC actually has authentication a server owner can set up that does require a valid Bedrock account or valid Java account, but it seems the server(s) you're playing hasn't set this up.

The question is so generic and open ended it's not a surprise. The only filter on this is "runs well on ThinkPad" and "lightweight", which are both up to interpretation

Can completely agree with the LMDE 6 recommendation

I decided on the basis of making my hardware last as long as I can, I chucked an i7-2760QM into my Latitude E6420 and 16GB DDR3 memory, shit actually runs flawlessly with LMDE. It even was able to run Windows Server 2022 in a VM while having me screen share said VM for an assignment I had.

Oh, was this why DuckDuckGo was down yesterday?

I think that’s a Hermitcraft reference, and I did not expect to see that on Lemmy of all places.

If you look up Hermitcraft S6 rap battle I think there’s a segment where Xisumavoid (sometimes called X) raps that

Edit: Jesus Christ this is embarrassing

For the phone bit, I started off with really old smartphones like a Galaxy S1, but basically any old old phones are really built like mini laptops and are usually pretty modular as they weren't often water resistant or actively anti-repair

However I fully get your point and fall into the same boat with cars

I'm not a big Twitter user to begin with, so I assumed based on the title that it was going to be similar to YouTube disabling the dislike counter.

This is making the list of posts you've "Liked" private. Saved you a click.

Personally I'd like this to be a toggleable feature like Reddit has (had?), but otherwise, yeah seems like an obtuse change, I don't understand the why behind it.

I've had experience with the older Toughbook CF-18's and Linux (specifically Xubuntu actually), in my case mine worked out of box, but I had the digitizer option.

Could you give us the output of the lspci and lsusb commands, to see if it's being detected?

There is also Synaptic which is a graphical front-end for apt, although I would definitely class it as less user friendly than Discover and the like.

I know if I was doing some Linux challenge with no terminal it would have to be my crutch.

Edit: Arch Linux has pamac which I used more frequently than the terminal back then.

Not OP, but I'm aware of it just from seeing it mentioned in threads like this. There might be a community or list available showing all these cool things but a lot of the time it just goes around by word-of-mouth.

I just want you to know that was an amazing read, was actually thinking "It gets worse? Oh it does. Oh, IT GETS EVEN WORSE?"

Don't threaten me with a good time!

23yo zoomer here. Like everyone else, I was stuck on the Michael Cera one for a while, but it was because I never heard of the guy and even after googling I didn't realise he was in one of the other photos.

Gosh texting on the Nokia felt so normal and equally a nice reminder on how nice the mobile keyboards we have now are.

I've never heard of a boomerang, the comments here filled me in but I'm not an Instagram user.

The iPod was fucking magical by the way, always wanted one as a kid growing up, even begging my parents just for the nano but they didn't see the value in that compared to the cheap knockoff MP4 players. I still want one nowadays but they're all stupid expensive.

There'll be a modloader in the next 5 years that will have you load .js scripts as mods

I still have my iPhone SE 1st gen with the perfectly ratioed 16:9 display, so nice not having black bars, while also having room to put my thumbs while I hold it in landscape watching a video.

My main phone, a Pixel 7a, is better in every way but my goodness holding it while watching a landscape video is terrible because my fingers keep occasionally touching the edges which are registered.

I did pretty much exactly this on a Galaxy S1 (i9000) that was old even when I got it, but my uncle who gave it to me said that to make it usable I needed to install Cyanogenmod.

I thought I fully bricked the phone trying and it actually sat dormant for years afterwards until I re-found the Odin backups I had taken, and was able to fully fix and restore it. Unfortunately by that time, nearly no ROM existed that was both up to date and a usable speed.

I mean the minute you see "Copilot bad, from windowscopilot[dot]news" should surely raise some flags

Hey, I have a Latitude 7280 which I believe should be the 12" version of yours. A year or so ago I tried running Linux on mine (I believe EndeavourOS but also tested with Debian) and I couldn't get sleeping to work right. When the laptop would wake up it seemed to just stay on a black screen and I'd have to hard power it down.

Was this something you ran into with yours? I've been forced to use Windows on this laptop since because I never figured that issue out and couldn't find anyone else with it

Anyone got a non paywalled version of this?
