Never was able to try mint, I only did once but the installer didn’t work for some reason, probably Nvidia related so I don’t blame mint for it.

Oh wow yeah I had forgotten about the grub update, the only way to not have a bricked computer was to be active in the arch communities because they didn’t remove the faulty package even though it was known to brick computers
It feels like I’ve seen this exact same headline about 57 times in the last two weeks. What does this say that is different from when the first tariffs went into effect on Feb 1st?
The level of disillusion in the thread is insane. At no point in time is it a good idea to recommend Arch and it’s derivatives to Linux newbies. They will 100% wreck their install in the first two weeks. Even I, as a pretty experienced user had to wipe my arch install after failed update attempts, luckily I had a separate home partition. Anything else like fedora or tumbleweed will provide packages that are very up to date, but that are also tested. For example I don’t fear that updating my fedora install will completely brick the networking of my system like what happened to me on arch.
Ironically I wouldn’t recommend any Ubuntu derivatives as for some reason, every single time I’ve installed Ubuntu or one of its variants like PopOS they ended up messed up in some way or another, albeit never as critical as Arch did to me numerous times. Probably some kind of PPA issues that make the system weird because it’s always the fault of PPAs
The dev taking the issue and closing it 30s later because the dev is competent enough to open the console and check the values and seeing "[Object object]"
C’est là où les bétonons (bébé béton) boivent leur lait maternel
The survey is from late 2024. I think this is more related to the war in Palestine and the fact that some people used that as a justification to hate on Jews in generwl
Complying with government data requests is NOT the same as collecting information for profit. A company cannot just decide to not comply with the local laws where they sell their products, or else they would risk getting banned in that country. Proton just like signal or any secure service will have to provide all of the requested info they have on you when demanded to. The point of using Proton and other secure services is that the actual important information (contents of your emails, drive elements, etc.) are encrypted, so even if they give the information, it will be useless. Proton isn’t sold as an anonymity service, but as a secure one. I’ve seen this whole debate and from the beginning it’s been stupid and uninformed takes that criticize just to criticize without any understanding of how being present in a foreign market works
Proton pass if general UX and speed are important to you. Bitwarden if amount of features is important to you
I know it can’t take my job because I tried to make it do my job. Spoiler, it can’t. And that’s because most jobs aren’t doing things that have been done so often that Claude has an example in its training data set. If your job is that basic then yes, an AI will take it from you. Most of the programming job is actually solving a problem within the context of the codebase, not the coding itself. I am working with old and archaic technology from the 60s to the 90s and let me tell you, using the official doc is way more factual than asking any AI model about information because it will start spewing bullshit after the second prompt
Heh for me even the newest models like the new Claude are only really useful when I did the thinking and the initial code writing, and i ask it to simplify it or to make it use more efficient libraries/features. Because when asking it to do my work it produces shit, and im very junior level
Doesn’t matter, the app has access to a unique device ID as well as an advertising id that the os provides free of charge without any user prompt! And that happens on both iOS and Android! How magnificent
Free speech for me but not for thee
Make backups of your important files, or use a separate home partition. When I used arch, more than once I had a bricked install after doing updates. The last straw for me was when after updating my network completely went out. I switched to fedora and haven’t had issues for 2+ years. Also, (this goes for every distro, but more so arch than others) NEVER update if you don’t have at least some time in front of you in case something happens. Arch was definitely a good learning experience and it was fun at first tweaking everything, but the drawbacks in stability got a bit old after a while. The AUR is a godsend and it’s the best thing ever, you should also be using an AUR helper like Yay to make your life easier.
When my company provided neuralink with crowdstrike installed crashes and forces me to sleep so I and half the country can’t work the next day
Please don’t bring 2018 memes back, they can stay in their grave. Imo terms of memes I think this was the very worst era.
Maybe. still extremely cool and I will 100% use it and play with it. This can also help with the claims of a phone replacing a desktop computer like we’ve seen with the desktop mode and Samsung Dex.
True, just side graded from a S23 base to a pixel 9, the pixel is a lot better in many ways. Mainly the UI is clunky and everything is bloated on the galaxy. There’s way too many features and way too little thought that went into organizing said features. Meanwhile the pixel is beautifully animated and has very nice and actually convenient features for calls for example. Most of the galaxy features I feel are just toys and gimmicks. The pixel is also more repairable with their online parts pairing tool as well as being more open to custom ROMs
I think it’s almost always wise to buy the dip. The article suggests otherwise but buying the dip is basically like going back in time x days/weeks/months. Statistically, the likelihood of the stock going back to pre-dip levels is very high. That time may be long or short, doesn’t matter. The best dip buying cases for quick money are when the entire market is shaken up by something that happens to 1 company, like the United Health CEO, all pharma companies lost ~15% for no apparent reason. Safe to say I would have made some money if I had bought it, but I didn’t want to invest in CVS.
