The Neo Store client for FDroid allows you to do this. I haven't actually used the install feature yet, but it exports a list to an .aps file and says it will load and download the list (dependent on the repos you have activated.)

Bold of you to assume most of them have ever read anything of substance, including their bible.

I actually thought it was a The Onion headline.

When I made the first leap from dual-booting Mint / Windows this is what I did. As someone else said, there does remain some "artifacts" after unless you know what partitions to remove, for me it was a fucky bootloader/GRUB that still retains the Windows EUFI and BIOS menus, etc. But it works.

A few months ago after more than a year of working fine, after an update (I assume kernel, as I really don't use that PC in a way to have fucked it up like that) something tripped/screwed with SecureBoot, though it was always disabled. It would only boot if I navigated to the BIOS through those stupid menus to clear the keys and reboot.

That's what pushed me to just do a full install, and I'd wanted to try KDE anyway. Just from my personal experience, a "native" install is just so much smoother!

More clarification in this article:

"But, that's not actually what happened. Never mind the fact that $300,000 won't buy you anywhere close to 512 H800s (those estimates are based on GPU lease rates not actual hardware costs), the researchers aren't talking about end-to-end model training.

Instead, it focuses on the application of reinforcement learning used to imbue its existing V3 base model with "reasoning" or "thinking" capabilities.

In other words, they'd already already done about 95 percent of the work by the time they'd reached the RL phase detailed in this paper."

Because then they might have to explain to their brain-numbed viewers what Socialism really is

It's what he would have wanted.

There actually is an F-Droid repo now for Ironfox, which I think I accidentally found in the repo list of NeoStore (another F-Droid client.) Link is also on gitlab:

Was he also by chance perpetrator of said "domestic violence incident"?

Somehow Voyager does have the best "feeling" intro of the Trek series.

I'll counter that as much as I have learned to accept the reasonings for the theme for 'Enterprise', I still think it might be the worst theme of just about any show ever. And then they added the country twang around season 3...
