I have my Mac desktop configured to snap icons to a grid. However, for a while I've noticed that moving an icon causes them to snap to the upper-right corner of the screen, ignoring where I actually want them and overlapping existing icons. The only way around this seems to be going into Display Settings, changing any parameter such as Grid Size, and then moving the icons again. Has anyone else been experiencing this?

I'm trying to find a YouTube video of a stand-up routine that I loved, but I can't remember the name of the performer! Here's what I do remember. She had long brown hair and a voice that reminded me of Mickey Mouse. I believe the video was taken from one of those late-night shows. Her routine was about getting older and not wanting to date casually anymore. It was pretty raunchy too. Two punchlines I remember had to do with drinking c-m and claiming her biggest weakness or red flag was that her p-ssy is too tight. Thanks in advance!

I am interested in dual-booting a Linux distro (probably Ubuntu) on my 2019 MacBook Pro. Ideally, I would have a shared data partition so that I could access my documents from both OSes. Does anyone have suggestions on the best way to accomplish this?

UPDATE: created macOS, Ubuntu, and data partitions. Was able to mount and access data partition from both systems without any issues. As a bonus, Ubuntu let me replace the standard documents, photos, videos, etc. folders with symlinks to the data partition.

My partner and I bought a low-end 3D scanner on Amazon to create this visualizer for a song I wrote!

The scanner aided in created a 3D mesh and texture map, which we brought into Blender and added fluid simulations via the FLIP plugin.

The song was recorded in Logic Pro, featuring my childhood Yamaha Portasound PSS-270. The video was comped in Final Cut Pro.

I'd love to know what you all think :)

Does anyone here have a BOOX e-paper tablet? I'm a big fan of e-paper devices—I love my Pebble smartwatch, Kindle Paperwhite, and Light Phone II. I've been eyeing the Tab Ultra C for quite a while, and I am considering the pros and cons. Mostly, I intend to use it for browsing the web and maybe some light note taking and document writing.

Suzuki's much anticipated re-issue of the Omnichord is here! It's a faithful modernization of the iconic form factor and sound of the OM-84, and it's expected to retail for around $800. Given that in 1984 these instruments went for between $260-$300 ($700-$1500 today), that's exciting!

I've got an original OM-84 that's still going strong, but I'll definitely be keeping my eye on this new line.

Hi friends! Has anyone here had success using Yubikeys on Linux? I've been going back and forth with support to no avail, trying to get my Yubikey 5C NFC to play nicely on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. Any suggestions are appreciated.

UPDATE: After working my way down the entire software stack, I contacted the vendor of my USB-C port and requested a replacement. It did the trick...

I don't think this solves the problem, but it is a step in the right direction.

I recently acquired an Intel Compute Stick during a liquidation sale. Has anyone used one of these as a home server? I currently host UmbrelOS on a RPi 4, which works great, but I can't imagine what I would use the Compute Stick for...
