All for Mike Johnson (R-LA)'s continued paid vacation.

I honestly don’t care what happens to this cop, but I hope this forever cements to people that cops don’t get the facts and details right, even in the most inconsequential of cases.

Jana also claimed that the government “has improved the operations at the Broadview facility over the last couple months.”

And if that was sufficient, the government would have no trouble meeting the minimum standards imposed by Judge Gettleman then.

He is doing his speech now… I’m nearly brought to tears.

Yeah, could it not be just setting /var/age or /home/user/.config/age to ‘20’ or ‘D’, and just have a function to pass that value to a web browser to bypass every age gate prompt?

Many files copied to an external disk are cached, and not written immediately unless you run the “sync” command.

So when you press the “eject” icon, on most frontends a notification will tell you not to unplug it right away, once the write is complete it will send a “it is safe to remove the drive” message. This can take a couple minutes if you are writing a big file to a slow drive.

Situation Normal:

Oops. The strategy to put on a cruel and embarrassing display to dissuade investment, and then ask for unilateral investment isn’t working?

I knew that this game was overhyped and its life would be limited, but now is the time to try to preserve this game as much as possible ahead of shutdown date.

Sounds like a Personal Computer of Theseus. Nobara is great, it’s a one person project dedicated towards making gaming and streaming easy.

Hey the Steam deck counts. That’s one more Linux device for prospective game developers to target.

CAD is still one area needing development, for sure.

Haven’t tested these myself, but after a brief search, timekpr and little-brother are packages I found you could try, related to session time management.

Glad to hear from someone on the receiving side of recommendations to switch, and that it is going well for you.

Impressive that you were able to pull off the migration for a corporate usecase.

Thanks. I figured Microsoft trying to force people off Windows 10 might be a bigger reason than ever to get people to switch than philosophical ones. I wanted to see if that was true for people on Lemmy or if there were other reasons, hence I made this post.

I think the hardest to get on Linux is those in the middle with a very specific piece of hardware or software that needs to work in a certain way. Kind of like the bell curve meme, total computer beginners and total computer experts can embrace linux the easiest.

With the power of Free and Open Source, I grant thee eternal computing liberation!

Glad it has worked out. Over the years I’ve been free tech support for my close friends and family whom I’ve installed Linux for (I’m fine with it because it had been my hobby, passion, and suggestion for them). I hope you’ve not been inundated with support requests.

I think it says something about Linux adoption rate amongst gaming users, that popular modding tools like r2modman have native Linux versions. And it’s great for me to hear “It just works” from new users since my bar is set at a weird spot, having seen things progress over 9 years.

If you know the games she plays, you could test installing them separately ahead of time, so that there would be minimal difference when that switchover happens.
