Shoot em up: Iridion 2

Racing: just Mario Kart Super Circuit lol
I used to love traveling by plane, but Boeing destroyed that…
Airbus doesn’t get into the news for some reason
Don’t trust Secure Boot.
That’s the second best thing as long as you don’t worry about nation state actors (you’re fucked by then anyway). Only requirement is a board/laptop manufacturer with a proper uefi setup (eg ability to set your own keys, not using those “do not use” test keys, etc) - that usually comes with business machines.
Wasn’t as good, imo.
The first one was maybe weird because it was still setting itself up. The second one was indeed a filler and the worst of the series (but nowhere near MMBN4-level bad). The third one on the other hand is easily a masterpiece beating MMBN6.
I got dropped out from university. I got a Microsoft Azure Fundamental cert since then, now I’m a mixed Windows/Linux sysadmin at an SMB. YMMV, I’m in Europe btw.
The only thing I miss from XP is the classic lock screen where it had your wallpaper and a login window in the air
The upgrabability of this laptop does have one caveat, though. The bottom is a bother to remove, and most Youtube crap conveniently glosses over them. For one, some of the screws would get loose but not come out all the way. I eventually found the trick was to throw some pry tool under the screw head to hold it up so I could get it the rest of the way out. After they were all out, the bottom cover STILL wouldn’t budge. This too ended up being a matter of jamming a pick in one corner of the case and running another one to slowly pry up the bottom case on all sides. I lost a plastic tab or two in the process, but that doesn’t show up on the outside, and I think 24 GB of RAM (and 2 TB of NVME 2280 storage + 256 GB, the Windows drive that I left in the 2242 bay) will be plenty for a long time.
It’s an E series ThinkPad. They are a lot less durable than any other series - they are basically the Dell Vostro of ThinkPads. (Even Dell doesn’t consider the Vostro line business ready now)
For the next best thing for a slight price increase would be the L series which is a lot more bulky and durable (and more repairable in fact - you can’t replace a keyboard in an E) which still doesn’t come with the premium price of the T series.
I like your username
Doesn’t surprise me that a developer from Microsoft doesn’t understand this. To this day, when I select “Update and Shut Down” in Windows, it only actually shuts the computer down about half the time.
There are some tasks that only can be done when the majority of the system is not in use. Windows prepares the files, reboots, does its thing in a preboot environment, then it actually shuts down.
The forced day-night cycle timer perhaps?
His mother must be very proud
Also wouldn’t that pull in major antitrust violation cases especially in the EU?
From the description he put on the per track pages he just added a bunch of equalizers, compressors, stereo imaging shapers and increased the BPM because why not. Oh and also he added “audiophile grade” to the title for good measure.
I’m tempted to flood our Kconfig files with tabs just to prove a point, but let’s not make a mess where it’s not needed. However, if this idiocy persists, don’t be surprised if I start tabbing everything in sight.
This is genius.
I don’t trust Fuck (lol typo, it was an accident, f and d are really close!)
FuckFuckNo
Not going to help a lot but may point to a motherboard issue - I’ve experienced this under Windows and a reboot has solved it.
- apt will brick itself if it gets interrupted mid transaction with no clear recourse apart from a total reinstall, so try not to get greedy and Ctrl+C if it looks like dpkg is hung
You can dpkg -r the package you tried to install then apt won’t complain about missing dependency packages for your app as it won’t be marked for to be installed
trying to install any software that isn’t already packaged explicitly for Ubuntu is a nightmare because there is no equivalent of the AUR for people to push build steps to and you’re quite often left guessing what dependencies you need to install to get something to compile
There isn’t a big global community repo per say like aur but anyone can host their own repos with PPAs, you just need to add them to your lists
Most apt quirks are there with Debian too, not just an Ubuntu thing. The rest of the things you mentioned are fair.
Hasn’t it been like that for decades now?
There are different flavours of Ubuntu with the other desktop environments (called Xubuntu, Kubuntu, and so on). The posted screenshot is indeed a mishmash of Gnome and Xfce though.
