A Wikipedia article about floors reminds you of a weird lie you heard one time?

Fortunately, Sarah Z is posting a new one next week

What’s the issue with Calibre Web? I add book to shelf on Calibre Web, and hit Sync on my kobo, and the kobo downloads the book and populates it in my library. What’s the thing I’m missing or that’s not working right?

Why does bedrock only work on tablets?

I’ve been on Linux for a year but maintain computers for my whole family, and my kids are still on Windows for roblox. In that year I’ve needed to use the command line on their Windows desktops more than on my Linux desktop, because I haven’t needed the terminal at all but for some fucking reason their computers won’t let you just change the time zone you’re in so I have to tzutil it manually

Open the Start menu, usually

Oh, flatpak works great for me, it’s just that it’s too sandboxed and I inevitably need something to talk to something else and rather than learn to use flatseal I just gave up and installed the AUR versions of everything

I’m not that person but I impulse switched to Garuda (Arch-based) around 8 months ago with a 3080 and everything has just worked, the only thing I’ve had problems with is flatpak being the bane of my existence

I go through my tabs weekly on mobile and close any not related to things I’m actively looking at, so it goes down to 3-6 tabs after every clean. It’s been 4 days and my tab count is just showing the ∞ it does when you go over 99

I set it once like 6 years ago and forgot it wasn’t something pre-installed and configured until I saw your comment. I was reading through the comments looking for the “you don’t need to do anything, ddclient takes care of it”

That video is why I was so confident in saying FlexPlay was a different product lol. He’s one of 11 subscriptions I have on YouTube

That was an entirely separate disposable rental DVD company

I use an Elite Series 2, if that’s the same thing, and the one I’m currently using is the second one I bought because I broke the first. This one has never been paired to a Windows computer, I bought it after I switched to Linux, it paired normally and has just worked

My Xbox controller has just worked on Linux for months now?

The joke was obvious, and you even doubled down by suggesting people intentionally go to Bentonville. I appreciated it

I see! Thank you for the explanation, I’m still very new as this is my first Linux and I did no planning or intentional research before swapping over, I just got mad at Windows and was formatting my main dive 15 minutes later. I avoided Mint specifically because I’d seen lemmy threads saying it was using old packages on purpose for stability reasons, and that for actual gaming I’d want rolling release?

I don’t know the difference between Wayland and X11, all I know is that they’re options, and I’m 30 days into the Arch-derived(is that the right term?) Garuda Linux that defaults Wayland with a 3080 and I haven’t had any problems? Aren’t the Mint problems that it’s a stable distro with outdated stuff?

I was on reddit slightly before subreddits were added as functionality, so 16ish years, and lemmy to me just feels like that 2008ish reddit except most of the userbase is 40 instead of 18

I have no idea what turning the print monitor off means in either Windows or Linux, I use my Logitech wireless mouse on Linux by plugging in the USB receiver and never thinking about it again, I use my Xbox controller by hitting the Pair button and clicking the Bluetooth icon on my desktop

There’s generally one or two slots connected directly to the CPU running in x16 or x8 if there’s two and both are connected, 4 lanes linking the CPU to the chipset, and the rest of the slots connect to the chipset and share that same x4 link. If your cpu has 24 lanes (Ryzen do/did a few years ago, Intel might but didn’t a few years ago), the remaining 4 lanes usually go to an NVMe slot
