As a Thinkpad user since the early 2000s, I’m extremely excited to see this news after I’ve slowly watched all of my repair & upgrade ability be removed.

I’ve been trying to boot a Ubuntu 24.04 USB (please no discussion of distro choice) but I keep getting a very unhelpful error during the initial startup.

You’ll always have the option to keep it blank. Meanwhile other (myself included) like to have some information at a glance that doesn’t require us to unlock our phones
Boomerang was an old feature on Instagram where it would just take a video and then loop it backwards when it reached the end. It was a really stupid phenomenon that nobody really used, hence the reason the got rid of it.

I actually found these a few years ago when I decided to press every modifier letter combination. Back then it wasn’t documented anywhere but I’ve seen it pop up a few times in the last month so somebody must’ve found and shared it recently
A value is trying to be set on a copy of a slice from a DataFrame. Try using .loc[row_indexer,col_indexer] = value instead See the caveats in the documentation: http://pandas.pydata.org/pandas-docs/stable/indexing.html#indexing-view-versus-copy
Not on fedora, but on Neon with a 3070. KDE 6 will lock up on Xorg, while electron apps will flash on Wayland, though there is a flag to enable Wayland support, it keeps dropping off of discord every time it updates. Running nvidia 550 proprietary, haven’t gotten to use the open ones yet as I need cuda for work
Definitely not as big as it used to be. Lineage, Graphene, and Pixel Experience are just about the only players left. Graphene doesn’t officially support anything other than pixels actively supported by Google though.
Edit: Episode Part 1/3Part 3/3 (I couldn’t find 2/3 anywhere annoyingly enough)
TL:DW: They found driving while using a cell phone is potentially as dangerous as driving drunk. They scored lower in their crash course while on the phone
Important to note:
They didn’t mention how much alcohol was consumed (or they did in the episode and not in this clip, give me a break I found this in 2 minutes on the shitter)
They show them taking a breathalyzer test. Im going to assume they were testing to be over the limit to get a DUI (.08% in the US), though it’s not shown or mentioned A clip of part 3/3 says that they stayed below the legal limit (@ .065%) so they would NOT be legally intoxicated
The sample size is like, 2. Not very statistically accurate, as mythbusters is entertainment and not a real scientific study
Theyre on a closed course. No pedestrians, no stop lights, no other drivers, no “unpredictable” variables in which you would need your reaction time, which would be impaired if you were drunk
Theyre using flip phones held up to their ears, on a phone call. Results probably vary (though are probably worse) texting vs a phone call and on modern devices vs old ones
No real claim either way to one being worse. Moral of the story being get off your fucking phone and don’t drive drunk and you dont need to worry. Dreizehn@kbin.social’s claims aren’t necessary wrong, but they’re not necessary right either
I just moved into a house with my friend and he gave me full reign to smart home the house. Every light has an Innr Zigbee bulb, which are great for having colors during parties and color temperature throughout the day (Adaptive Lighting in HACS), as well as motion controls in the hallway (which has a broken 2 way switch) and kitchen. The front porch light turns on when I come home if I’m on foot, and the back porch light comes on if I’m driving. The lights in the living room turn down if something’s playing and it pauses if I leave the room. We’ve got an old android tablet I stole from the trash on the kitchen wall for a shopping list as well as an overview of the house. They washer and dryer have vibration sensors so we get an alert on our Google homes when our load is finished (we’re both forgetful as fuck). I had an extra contact sensor left over from the doors that I put on the mailbox, so we get a nice AOL “you’ve got mail” when the mailman comes.
Frankly I don’t know how I survived without automation. I forget things so much less now.

Glad it’s working! For the future, you might want to put ventoy on your singular USB. You can then put different ISOs on it, so you can have windows and Linux recovery on one keychain. Has saved my ass a number of times!
As far as I’m aware they can only be used on Android. I did a search for APK on Roku and I all found were some articles erroneously calling custom channels APKs. Roku does let you side load custom channels in developer mode, but you can remove software like you can on an android box, so you’re always stuck with Roku’s ad riddled home page and whatever injects ads into HDMI
