SFC has worked numerous times for me, usually for botched updates. Haven’t used it in a long time after leaving tech support

I took a peek in a recycling bin last time I was at Target and saw a handful of vapes in there, this would be a good place to start.

That’s how I’m reading it at least

I believe the “non-commercial use only” is regarding the subtitles themselves, not the code. Im sure any commercial use using stolen subtitles from other services wouldn’t go over well

This is just a theory, I don’t have knowledge of the inner-workings of either Linux or Windows (beyond the basics). While Microsoft has been packing tons of telemetry in their OS since Windows 10, I think they fucked up the I/O stack somewhere along the way. Windows used to run well enough on HDDs, but can barely boot now.

This is most easily highlighted by using a disk drive. I was trying to read a DVD a while ago and noticed my whole system was locked up on a very modern system. Just having the drive plugged in would prevent windows from opening anything if already on, or getting past the spinner on boot.

The same wasn’t observed on Linux. It took a bit to mount the DVD, but at no point did it lock up my system until it was removed. I used to use CDs and DVDs all the time on XP and 7 without this happening, so I only can suspect that they messed up something with I/O and has gone unnoticed because of their willingness to ignore the issues with the belief they’re being caused by telemetry

I’ve heard the 24.04 installer is having issues. I would hold off for an update for them to patch other stuff as well

Not on fedora, but on Neon with a 3070. KDE 6 will lock up on Xorg, while electron apps will flash on Wayland, though there is a flag to enable Wayland support, it keeps dropping off of discord every time it updates. Running nvidia 550 proprietary, haven’t gotten to use the open ones yet as I need cuda for work

I am not as worried about DMCA as the author is lol

Queer spear

I’ll have to look into this a bit more. The guy at the end of the comment chain says his chromium stuff is still flickering, but I’ll give it a whirl when I don’t strictly need a working dev environment :P

Installed neon on an external drive. Liked it so much I cloned it to my internal drive. Spent 4 hours trying to diagnose why I was being dropped to a grub shell every time I tried to boot. Apparently the bootloader ID was fine being “neon” on the external drive but had to be “Ubuntu” on the internal drive or grub wouldn’t find it. Fucking infuriating, but I like plasma 6!

A truly unpopular opinion.

Honestly for me I don’t think it’s necessarily about anything really happening in the movie, it’s just cute watching 2 robots fall in love n save the planet and everything. Also WALL-E is just a silly lil guy you can’t not root for him

Had to switch back to X11 because of novideo being shit. Tried 525, 535, and 540 and vscode would flicker like that one light at the back of the gas station nobody likes to visit because all they sell are stale cigarettes

If you don’t want to buy a domain you can try a reverse DNS lookup, your ISP may already give you one. Mine was C-XX-XX-XX-XX.hsd1.pa.comcast.net and I could get a let’s encrypt certificate with that. I did end up buying a domain but it was good for personal use

Edge has done this by default since release, with an option to be more strict in what it blocks

That’s also a valid possibility. Not a big fan of the idea of an ECU or similar getting an OTA, but I guess it’s better than doing a recall if there’s an issue? Not that my 1990 or 2010 vehicles ever needed something updated in them.

I hate the future of vehicles. I don’t believe that the infotainment system should ever be connected to important vehicle functions.
