I got a job and was not allowed to use a linux laptop, so I went with mac.

Same. 2015. I could have pushed them to let me use Linux, but it would have been making waves in a remote shop. The 2015 MacBook hardware was decent, so I got it. Domain binding was still in fashion. 99 problems. Finally, I got it okay-ish, set up Brew, it’s a hack. I started trying to use the terminal to do things, almost no config available, the disk mount subsystem was alien, the logs were crap. Since then, the hardware and compatibility has just gotten awful.

You’re not wrong. I use it a lot. it’s super for short local trips and maybe medium trips.

When I asked it to go a few states over, routing cost me a couple of hours last time before I realized something was off.

Use it, but scrutinize it.

Hell, I don’t even trust a single study anymore… This one was done in India under the pressures of not having enough dentists to cover their massive population.

The actual point behind it might be if you’re not going to floss, definitely mouthwash

mouth wash is at least as good

Mouthwash has a couple of downsides.

1. It does not discriminate good bacteria from bad bacteria. If you stop or delay treatment, you have a chance of getting a runaway situation with nasty bacteria.

2. It does not remove plaque. If you stop or delay treatment for a while, bacteria make and settle down in to plaque. You’re relying on dental visits to remove the plaque.

3. Mouthwash does not remove food lodged in the gumline or in between teeth.

If you don’t like flossing, I’d recommend getting a waterpic. Keep your tongue scrubbed and brush after every meal. Only use mouthwash if you start having funky smells / tastes / things seem off.

No cavities in 25 years. Unfortunately, the 25 years before that did not go as well, it took me a long time to sort out dental hygiene.

I keep one in a docker container and one in an actual pi, that way I can perform updates and upgrades without interrupting DNS service at the house.

We’re too corrupt to allow the competition :)

I was on a cruise once. Upper deck mini-buffet had a plate of piped black bean croquettes.

They were lumpy like the beef here, and because they were piped, one side of the ends was pinched off.

The head chef for the boat was making his rounds. We were laughing at the presentation. He smiled at us probably thinking what are these assholes laughing at, he looked down, frowed, what za fuk were zey thinking putting shit out like this. Within a few minutes the pan disappeared and the next day that buffet was quite pretty.

Hell, even if you are a programmer and have no memory issues, it’s a hell of a lot faster to have it boilerplate something for you for a given engine with certain features than to sit down and write it from scratch or try to find a boilerplate. Stack exchange usage has been going down regularly as LLMs are filling the gap.

It doesn’t get you to third base or anything. But it does get you started and well-structured within the first couple minutes of code for any reasonably simple task.

Last year I worked on a synchronized Halloween projector project. I had the first week of work saved into my repo, but as Halloween approached, I wrote a lot of it on the server. After Halloween, I failed to commit it back and inadvertently wiped the box.

This year, after realizing my code was gone, I decided to try having copilot give me a head start. I had it start back over from scratch, asked it in detail for exactly what I had last year, it was all fully functional again in about 4 hours. It was clean, functional well documented code. I had no problem extending it out with my own work and picked up like I hadn’t lost anything.

Nobody is going to upload this but this is the same scenario that had Brave screwing around with cryptocurrency and selling search engine results.

My dream for Mozilla is that it does not descend into a capitalist marionette full of silent information gathering and black-box AI widgets. If you’re going to do AI, I want it open, like training data open. Whitepaper open. I want to be able to trust the company and it’s projects and especially it’s browser.

Yeah, that defense always works for the BLM protesters too right? Right?

Even the printers that sell print heads as parts charge 3/4 of the printers price for them.

And, if you don’t print from an inkjet inside of about 6 months they often get clogged.

Laser printers can sit around for a decade fire right up and be fine. Inkjet printers are but for a narrow set of circumstances destined in short-term for e-waste.

F***, which cabinet seat is he going to appoint them to?

It’s not supposed to be read only every time, The nasty command you enter is likely fixing a symptom.

A lot of times if you’re swapping back and forth between windows and Linux the drive will be perceived as dirty. An fsck might be enough to make it stop misbehaving.

After you plug it in if you run sudo dmesg, It might give you some insight as to why it’s being mounted read only, If you fix the underlying cause you won’t have to remember the command anymore

Trying to get Roblox running inside of mint is a pita

There may be an easier way to access the external drive, It depends on what you are bar is for difficult. Are we talking about a NAS or an external USB drive?

What’s your current method for connecting to it?

If you’re going to call for the stopping of advancement of science while we figure out how to not be horrible we might as well just cash it out now.

A few seconds of microgravity? Something sounds off, that would probably be enough to be seen in parachutists and fighter pilots. I think I’m going to wait for the peer review on this one…
