My understanding is that Roblox requires changes to the kernel to lock it down in order to prevent script kiddies from cheating. Linux makes that very difficult to impossible, so they abandoned/never supported the platform.

Maybe Sony should have some things cutoff for that root kit, hmmm?

Can you play Roblox? I thought they blocked it on Linux.

Babylon 5: Into the Fire. Killed just months before release after a corporate restructure. The closest we got was some Freespace mods.

My daily driver is a 10yo Dell business laptop. Before that I ran a similarly aged Lenovo. I run mint.

In my experience, the amount of ram and an SSD are the biggest contributors to how good the performance feels. Running mint on 4G is possible, but performance is comprised. 8G is perfectly fine most of the time. 16G (my current setup) is peachy keen. I'm astounded what I can do in blender on a 10yo machine.

That said, if you can afford one (and they operate in your country - they don't here), then grab a framework, like others have said. If that's not an option, then add some ram and an SSD.

My 2c.

Let's be honest, the Soviets were perfectly willing to allow the Nazis to destroy Europe and then reap the rewards. Just ask Poland. Of course, then the Nazis invaded the Soviets and that threw a spanner into the works.

It depends, but probably. I use 5-10yo laptops running Debian.

The olive oil might be causing it to become too doughy. You don't need it (or the sugar). Both are for taste and texture. You'll likely need to fiddle with the water if you lose the oil.

I'd also recommend measuring by weight and not volume. It's more accurate. Buy yourself some cheap kitchen scales.

Le Fabuleux Destin d'Amélie Poulain. Also my favourite movie.
