Synapse

Forced to use Windows 11 at work, my brand new laptop with 32GB or RAM takes 10 to 20 seconds to open the explorer or view an image. It’s horrendous. It’s absolutely not because of the application I need to use because I literally do EVERYTHING in Google Chrome. This year IT uninstalled Excel and Word from our laptops because we are supposed to do all the work in Google Drive. Updates always need minimum 2 reboots and you need to attend to the computer because rebooting will get stuck on the encryption password. I hate it, but it always been like that so…

EM stands for Elon Musk, obviously

The title of the book makes me think that was the point. Still looks uncanny as hell.

Do they taste any different from the Cavendish?

It’s a formula very useful for a tone of engineering fields, electronic, mechanics, automatic control and probably a bunch more. I used it a tone in my early carrier, including the imaginary flavor.

First, BACKUP EVERYTHING.

Then, the best distro is probably going to be the same you are currently using. You will not have to deal with issues that may be specific to one distro. There is enough difference from one computer to another to cause annoying issues, even on windows.

• Set a decently good password (password is required frequently on Linux, so do go overboard with a 40-random-characters-long password, you will regret it)
• don’t install programs or run scripts from shady sources, prefer to install programs from the Software store (package manager and flatpak)
• setup a backup system to regularly copy all your files to a separate storage device. This is the way to protect yourself from ransomware but also user errors! Having the possibility to format your drive, reinstall and restore backup in a 1 hour time span is going to give you the peace of mine you need for exploring and experimenting with Linux

My opinion: they are fanatics, there is no logic to it beyond just the feeling to belonging to a group, a counter-culture of sort. It’s not different from Facebook flatearthers, just a different fixation.

Tankies have a lot of reach here on Lemmy because the main developer is one of them and he also is the admin of lemmy.ml, which is one of the biggest and oldest Lemmy instance (server) with many active users and communities.

Tankies, by definition, will support China and Russia without a single atom of discernment. Cherry picking whatever “facts” goes their way and dismissing any contradiction as “western propaganda” or just telling you you are a matrixed liberal minded retard.

It’s best to only respond to them in Russian or Mandarin, because funny enough, they can’t speak a single word of these languages.

Don’t you know that PRC is the most democratic country in the world ?!? People are totally free to express themselves! PRC is a beacon of light showing us the way to total respect of human rights and diversity!!!

Firefox has been pretty good on Android for a little while now. They have recently rolled out an interface refresh that is an improvement in my opinion.

There was already a criminal investigation ongoing and his tragic death happened in the meantime, amplifying the media coverage of this case that was only reported by independent media until now.

Yeah, looks like they only have it for the Pixel 9 and 9 Pro. Well, I’m not gona buy a new phone for that, but it looks pretty cool.

Where did you get this keyboard case and do they make one for the Pixel 7 ?

It’s perfectly reliable. You only need caution when using RAID5 and RAID6 as these features are still in the experimental phase.

I’ve not been, but it looks amazing

Hey ! I’ve seen this place before!
