I'm actually guilty of this every few months or so LOL! ๐Ÿง€

Sigh, unzips...

And if I called Google AI as dumb as a box of rocks, isn't that also just about as insulting?

My own computer is a piece of shit by modern day standards. Is my computer offended when I call it a piece of shit? Nope.

Again, I'm not insulting a person, so I don't see how anyone would take it personally or get offended. Totally different context.

Oh boo hoo, people getting emotional over AI..

The word retarded is used in automotive technology, it means delayed, the opposite of advanced. Not like I'm insulting a human.

Get over it.

Would they get a bonus if they came with their own skull?

[โ€“] over_clox@lemmy.world 3 points 17 hours ago

At least one.

Don't feed the trolls. OP's account is apparently just barely over an hour old, and all their posts are hateful.

Report them and move on, I already have. When the mods check, I'm sure they'll deal with it quickly.

Hi, is the fire hydrant included?

In B4 the mods delete and ban OP..

 

Let the votes fall where they may, upvote if you like AI, downvote if you don't..

 

I've been testing this OS for a bit, but I'm having trouble where drives are shutting down prematurely, as if the power management is too aggressive when it comes to external USB drives.

My USB hard drive will shut down on whatever timer Linux is using, despite my VirtualBox machine actively using it via Shared Folders. I have to use the Linux host and Caja to wake the drive back up. Like what the hell?

My USB DVD drive will spin up stupid fast to buffer a lot of DVD video, then Linux spins the drive down and turns it off. Then the next time it needs data, the drive has to spin up stupid high speed again, causing the video to freeze frequently while the drive spins back up, way too fast no less for the task. Why not a simple consistent speed and keep the drive running while watching a movie? VLC if that matters, on the host Linux.

Is this a power management configuration issue? Are these somehow the same issue, or are they two separate issues?

What should I do to resolve/reconfigure?

 

I heard you folks like cassette players around here..

Yes I put it in the trash at least.

 

I can't find that episode, the camera burned up, did anyone else get footage from a different angle?

 

Similar to how the term 'digital' has shifted from doing numeric calculations and storage to how it's used today, referring to content you purchase and stream or download from the internet.

Terminology changes over time, and I'm not sure that I like some of the changes. ๐Ÿคท

 

Hypothetical/sarcasm of course. I'll start...

'Please do not flush your fetuses until after 10pm. Thank you, Management'

 

I've got a whole bucket full of old hard drives, CDs and DVDs, and I'm starting the process of backing up as much as still works to a 4TB drive.

It's gonna be a long journey and lots of files, many prone to being duplicates from some of the drives.

What sorts of software do you Linux users recommend?

I'm on Linux Mint MATE, if that matters much.

Edit: One of the programs I'm accustomed to from my Windows days is FolderMatch, which is a step above simple duplicate file scanning, it scans for duplicate or semi-duplicate folders as well and breaks down individual file differences when comparing two folders.

I see I've already gotten some responses, and I thank everyone in advance. I'm on a road trip right now, I'll be checking you folks recommend software later this evening or as soon as I can anyways.

 

I'll start...
