It’s an installer for Termux packages. You can do the same thing manually in Termux shell, if you know the names of packages you are installing.
And yes, Termux uses Debian apt package manager.
The biggest online store in my country has 4GB flash drives permanently on sale for $3.
A Debian live image fits into 4GB flash drive. If you search stuff for sale you can probably find them cheap, and 4GB is practically the smallest size you can buy.


They still make an acceptable FTP server for backing up your huge tarballs.
Github is more involved, you need to create a release and then attach files to it. With sf.net you jist do a FTP upload.
But it’s on a dedicated server you have already paid for, which also hosts your own Minecraft game server with active players (mission-critical process which can never be allowed to stop).
DNS is pronounced ‘hosts’ because it was originally one big text file.
kill is a command.
love, happiness, and peace are not commands.
You can totally find love using command sudo apt install love. It’s a game engine.
happiness is a Perl module inside libdemeter-perl package. Let’s not install Perl modules, there lies insanity.
And you can find peace in a whole bunch of packages, it’s an icon of the peace symbol.


Gnome is the most stable DE with all features included, it also has minimal amount of system options to still have all features.
XFCE misses a lot of features, such as printers. KDE has all bells and whistles but is less stable.


My answer is killall -9


Dolphin does mount it …somewhere. Supposedly. I expect only KDE developers know where exactly.
You can get the same functionality using Gnome file manager and gio command, and you get your network share properly mounted in a file system, but then you won’t be using KDE.


Gnome 3 abruptly removed app icons from the desktop moved taskbar to the top of the screen, and broke Alt-Tab. That’s why prople hate Gnome and love KDE, because KDE did not break these features.


Dolphin shows you places that are not in your file system, such as network shares or your phone‘s media directory. Those are fake files, illusions of Satan, temptations designed to stray you from the path of God. Avoid anything that is not opened with open and not read with read system calls, for doing so is a sin before eyes of God (fopen and fread are permitted). Mount your network shares using sudo mount -t cifs.
That was the whole Redhat business model when they just started.
The PC case with Turbo button was originally 486-DX, but there was no place on the new K6 motherboard to plug it into.
People are boasting about Arch, but my first open-source OS was FreeBSD 4.2, fitting on a single CD-ROM.
It included a tiny base system and C compiler, and practically every other package had to be compiled from source, using the ports system, which was just a collection of makefiles, one for each package.
And you had to be careful to use gmake instead of make, because the default Make was BSD-specific tool incompatible with most of open-source software, which targeted Linux. And you had to make sure to use GNU versions of grep, sed, and awk, and remove all bashisms from shell scripts, because /bin/sh was of course incompatible with bash.
You had only about 50% chance that a given package would compile. Package manager? What package manager? Just run suand then make install.
And my PC was AMD K6, and it had Turbo button, which did absolutely nothing. And I was very proud of my TEAC CD drive.
