I'm assuming that "phone bo" means phone book? If that's true then I'm at 20/20.

I plan to live forever. So far, so good.

Hell yeah.

I am the IT guy in my family, I have a bunch of S7s for the wife and kids with eOS, and everybody is more then happy with them.

I got a fairphone 5 a awhile ago for myself, and while it did cost €600+, I wanted the modularity and reparability, I just wanted to support that type of company and try it out. Hopefully I will have it for 10 years or so.

The two continents!? Like, the land masses themselves? Damn, this sounds serious.

Looks cool!

Just a suggestion: If you do want to find people to play with, you should try meetup.com, I met my RPG group there, and we've been playing weekly for almost 20 years now.

Nix is such a cool project. If I had more time I'd definitely give it a go.

I ran bazzite on a Lenovo flexpad with Intel und 630 graphics and it ran perfectly. I even ran mechwarrior 5 on it, albeit with the graphics details turned down so low that it looked like a mechwarrior game from the 1990s.

I'd give bazzite a go. Learning about how to install and use distroboxes is also lots of Linux fun.

Edit: also, you literally cannot break any of the immutable fedora distros. Very newbie friendly.

Jokes on you, I'm into this shit.

I have seen these guys live, in a bar deep in the woods of 'sconnie. Those were the days...

The truth of the matter is that we don't really know.

Science used to use "heavenly spheres" to calculate the movements of planets back when the earth-centric system was the leading theory. When the observations didn't match the predictions, more spheres were added to adjust.

Now we are doing the same thing with dark matter. We can't explain how galaxies hold together, so we make up some placeholder substance that makes up the majority of mass in the universe, but is undetectable, and call it dark matter. It's just like adding more heavenly spheres.

With the Webb telescope we are finding lots of stuff that doesn't fit our model, which is kind of like Galileo observing the moons of Jupiter for the first time. All of these new observations are showing us that out current model is possibly way off.

Have you tried reversing the polarity of the main sausage array?

[–] UNY0N@lemmy.wtf 2 points 2 weeks ago

That is a very healthy attitude to have!

No idea where to find such a font. But why not just do it yourself? Find a font you like, make the 3D file, and then add the positive bars to support the loose bits manually to each character that needs it.

I'm assuming that you don't have hundreds of such cases for your stencil, of course.

I'm about to install bazzite on my wife's older (2017) Windows 10 machine, and I've been going over how to recreate everything she currently has. Most programs (even proprietary ones) are not an issue, but I'm not finding much in the antivirus department.

I never even thought to install one on my Linux machine (also on bazzite, but I have used other distros in the past). So although I am no stranger to Linux, this issue blindsided me.

I know clamav exists, and I'm educating myself on how to use it, but a GUI would be nice for the wife. She's not afraid of the terminal, but she likes the convenience of GUI programs.

Any suggestions? What do you use? Or is it just generally accepted that one should be careful and keep things up-to-date and that's enough?
