Unfortunately, the article doesn’t really compare to other collectors. My wife’s bookshelves are full of a much higher cost library than my Steam library could ever hope to achieve, and many of them are still on her “TBR” list. She’ll also never read those physical copies, so she’s buying them twice so she can read them on her Kindle or listen on Audible.

They could use loginctl enable-persist if they want a user service to run at boot. I use it for my home nas server, just to make it slightly easier to manage my non-root services.

This just looks like a standard orthographic projection with Canada near the center.

You are mistaking a “concerted effort” with a general consensus that free VPNs are not a great idea. “If a service is free, you are not the customer, you are the product” is a pretty good rule of thumb. Your downvotes aren’t necessarily a conspiracy here.

If Apple gets their way, you’ll be renewing every month:

Artificial sweeteners and insulin sensitivity is a reverse correlation, better methodologies have found they do not cause reduced insulin sensitivity or obesity: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33535094/

People who are overweight or diabetic tend to increase consumption of artificial sweeteners as a result of their condition, not the other way around.

I’ve been single boot on Fedora for a little over a year. The biggest issue for gaming that I’ve seen are because of anti-cheats that don’t support Linux.

“That’s a sandwich worthy of Dagwood Bumstead!”

The Linksys WRT3200ACM has A/B firmware support, but unfortunately that router is starting to get a little outdated. Saved me from a couple bad upgrades, but unfortunately it died on me about 4 months ago. I updated to the Banana Pi BPI-R3, which has been great for my network speed, but was a lot more complicated to set up.

Are you trying to say you’re not a fan of needing to reinstall packages after an upgrade? It’s so simple with these easy to remember commands:

opkg update
cat /etc/backup/installed_packages.txt | grep overlay | sed s/\ *overlay// | xargs opkg install

I can sometimes do this without my attention even shifting. I’ll mentally read every word individually for a while, but forget to put them together to actually understand them.

Wait, I haven’t seen ads on YouTube Premium (yet), and I’m just now realizing this could very likely be because Google knows my wife and I don’t watch sports.

On a serious note, you should learn about Graham’s number, it’s legit mind-blowing.

I will typically use the terms asynchronous and parallel when discussing the concepts, but I hadn’t thought about using multitasking until I saw that comment. I mean, even C# calls them “tasks”.

A comment on the YouTube video makes a good point that we already have a better word for the concept of dealing with multiple things at once: multitasking. Using a word that literally means “things happening at the same time” just adds to the confusion, since people already have a difficult time understanding the distinction between multitasking and concurrency.

I’ve tried using SFC multiple times and had it work zero times. One time after SFC failed to find anything wrong, I ended up fixing the machine by replacing the system file with a copy from a working machine.

For more context, it was a Windows 8.1 license I upgraded to 11. But yes, still crazy they let it “expire” when using the exact same hardware. My theory is that because the BIOS update changed my TPM keys, Windows couldn’t tell that it was the same hardware.

I had been dual booting for a while with Windows 11/Fedora until one day I needed to update the BIOS on my motherboard. Windows decided it was too big of an upgrade and wanted me to activate again. I called support, and they said that I had used up all my activations and would need to buy a new copy.

Thanks Microsoft, for helping me switch full time to Linux!

Not sure if that was intentional, but I suppose it’s technically correct.

You called?
