Of course. It is/was my favorite purely based on the design of the front page.

Linux user of 20ish years here. I run Mint with cinnamon on my desktop PC - sometimes I just want stuff to work out of the box.

Had the same issue for my nvidia 4060. I just installed a kernel manually which allowed me to run a new enough driver.

God damn it, please don’t.

Alternatively, I’m looking forward to seeing world records being set in the sport of defederations.

Not necessarily. I’ve seen failures like this if the boot partition works, but fails to mount the root partition. systemd then fails to proceed, and shuts down the running services.

Not without mounting its root partition on the failing harddrive

Only time I manually overclocket a PC was with a leaded pencil in the good ole days of AMD Thunderbird

Broadcast: dropping leaflets from an airplane

Can confirm. It was common here in Norway. My dad got most of his news updates and weather forcasts from there, as he was usually busy during the evening news broadcast.

Rtx on/off meme template;

“Off” is a greyscale picture of metacat struggling with manual dependencies. Possibly combined with “Isn’t there a better way?” from ye olde shopping channel ads.

“On” Is a HDR image of a smiling metacat having no such issues. In the background a rainbow can be seen over a flowery garden, in which people are holding hands with rabbits frolicking in the grass.

Yeah yeah, I know, I’ll go to bed now…

Do they have that new car(t) smell?

Create a linux mint install USB. When you boot from it, you’ll be in a fully functional linux OS, without installing anything. This way you can try it out before making a commitment.

Although a recurring recommendation is to install linux on a second PC to try it for a while.

Anyone who lives near the sea an can see ships disappear behind the horizon.

After working in IT since 1999, I can count on my dads lefthand fingers the times I’ve had to solder a graphics card.

PS: My dad lost his left arm in 1996

It could be a good vehicle, if it was built by someone else.

The past few years have revealed that while Tesla have the tech, they lack the basic precision manufacturing that other automakers mastered decades ago.

As made famous by that Windows screensaver

My solution in perl back in the day when I was a teenage hobbyist who didn’t know about the modulus operator: Divide by 2 and use regex to check for a decimal point.

if ($num / 2 =~ /\./) { return “odd” }
else { return “even” }

Am I to understand that the cable use has multiple cores within a single cladding? Interesting approach…

Now we get to classify them as singlemode, multimode, and multiestmode.

I’ve been working a lot with ships, and the same issue is prevalent there. On the smaller boats DC is used, and this is usually stepped up and inverted when higher voltages or AC is needed. This is usually fine unless we’re talking about a lot of current-hungry hardware such as sidescan sonars etc.

12V is fine for recreational boats only. 24V is the only viable DC voltage for industrially equipped boats (I was involved with outfitting a tiny ROV boat with a side scan sonar… all the equipment was 24V, while the mains were 12V. It was a pain in the ass to manage.)

48V would make things a lot easier, as that’s standard for a lot of high power equipment such as radars.
