At least Windows fucking tells you before you hit the restart button. The other day at work I went to reboot a users MacBook and was hit with a surprise 30 minute update.

Goes without saying “something something Linux superiority”

From the States, I say Maccas instead of McDonald’s, and things like bellend and wanker occasionally. It’s fun picking up words and stuff from other cultures

Or what if you want to open an application that takes like a minute to load like Discord or photo editing software or CAD software, and want to do things while the splash screen is there and loading still?

Same! Never have to worry about updates anymore its great!

My college system is working on implementing it as our network monitoring utility, so far so good

There are plenty of ways for a VM to tell that it’s a VM and not on baremetal, but there’s not really a way for a program running on an OS in the VM to block the Host OS or hypervisor software from capturing an image of the screen of the VM.

Sure would love if it respected the fact that I already opted out and disabled it in the app settings, but yeah its nice that you can still block it. Give it a week and they’ll change that just like Snapchat did with their stupid fucking AI chatbot thats now forcibly pinned to the top of my chats list with no way to remove it unless you pay a monthly subscription.

In my experience most standard STD panels will test for HSV-2 but not 1, usually you’d have to special request it

Oh yeah I keep forgetting about that. One of these days I’ll jump to Forgejo

Surprised to not see Gitea here, thats what I’ve been using for awhile now for my little projects

That’s exactly why the next paragraph tells you how to find “External funds used” deep in the Steam Help menu…

You can edit the post to mark it as NSFW retroactively for what it’s worth

Ahahaha you’re right wtf

They should also have a Tor domain too, imagine cuandi2nfh81i4juqknsk18the.onion or something lol

If it hasn’t yet it’s about to. 1-5% daily drops across the stock market for the past month pretty much and now with a 10%+ minimum tariff on all imports means everything is going to get way more expensive. I’ll chew a brick if we’re not in a recession by the end of the year

Yeah, definitely a bot. Respond proving otherwise and with actual substance if not.

If you don’t think the modern Linux distro are shiny and easy to use, how long has it been since you tried? There are plenty of feature complete distros that are shiny and modern and comfortable to start using as a lifelong windows user

3.141592653589793238? Nah
6.283185307179586476? Nah
9.869604401089358618? Yeah

Edit (x5) edits are hard

I did something similar with an old Alienware, I slapped a 4TB drive in it and put unRAID on it and it became my general server for pretty much everything. I’ve moved to a Dell R510 for now though.

With a 1080 you could do some pretty decent models with Ollama, or other AI projects. I have a 1650 in the server I use for my LLM stuff.

Seems like itd make a fine server for fedi verse stuff

Unsure about the RAID question, theoretically if you have enough SATA slots and drive bays in the case it should at least be doable with software? But that’s another reason I recommend unRAID, especially if you’re not buying drives in a preconfigured storage size configuration

We’re not far off actually! Only $50 to go:
