Check if there's alternatives to what you use in Windows, or if there's a Linux version. Decide if you need to use the windows program, or if the Linux equivalent will work. There may be a learning curve to using a different program, but I haven't yet really found anything that doesn't have an equivalent that isn't a program paired with hardware that will only work with each other.

I'm in an interesting place because I installed tumbleweed as a server. At some point there was a change to networking and when I updated, networking didn't work anymore, so I had to roll back to just before the update. I don't want to start from scratch, and I don't want to either bring a screen to it and troubleshoot what's going on again. I tried in the past, and after a few hours of getting nothing (everything should be fine, it just doesn't send or receive anything), I rolled it back and walked away. I have a feeling I just need to run yast and reconfigure there after updating, I just don't want to go through the effort of fixing it because it still runs fine.

I worked in toxicology. Likewise, if any detective showed up in my lab for results, let alone talked to anyone anywhere near their samples, they can say goodbye to their case.

I made some sort of Norwegian dish for my ex (she's Vietnamese, comes into play later) that she really wanted and missed from when she visited Norway. It was a casserole consisting of potatoes, cream, pickled Herring, and ground black pepper. Like, I'm pretty sure that's every ingredient that went into this thing. I'm not even sure if there was any cheese or salt.

I thought I screwed up somewhere because it was not good. She loved it because it was so bland and apparently I made it perfectly. I do not understand how she could go from eating food like bun bo hue to whatever the hell I made and enjoy it.

That would have to be an automatic action, cause I ain't hitting a button when reading comments. I don't even upvote/downvote enough

I've found that the Arch wiki works for most distros if you know how to translate it. There have been multiple times I've searched how to do something or how to fix something in Linux and the only useful result is an arch forum or wiki. All I had to do is translate the steps for debian/ubuntu/opensuse/fedora/rpiOS, etc.

The process was usually "search this error" > "this part" isn't working, search "this part error" > arch forum showing steps to fix. Search "where the fuck is this file in

<distro>

Then there's opensuse, and there's fucking camelcase capitals in their packages (NetworkManager? Seriously?) so I have to Google "opensuse <command/application> package" like a fucking rube.

I did this once. I got to a command line installation and I think I either borked installing a usable desktop environment, or I was just sick of it all and decided I wouln't be getting working hibernation or Wi-Fi this way anyway and the slightly lower resources used wasn't worth it.

I think I had tried Gentoo before that and must have decided I didn't like myself for some reason.

Quality movies and shows, HBO was the place for that for decades. If you saw HBO and static, you knew you were in for something good.

If I recall correctly it was in response to a bill that would nullify the treaty with the indigenous people. In my mind, trying to gut the agreement that you'll work together and respect each other instead of trying to kill each other is an act of war, any response less than killing people is being respectful.

The first time I got this I thought I screwed up big time. Then, half a second later I was like "wait..."

Yeah, I have gripes about this list. Starting with the poor title.

I agree with their sentiment, I like my menu on the side, the middle of my screen is busy showing me what I was doing. I don't want it covered up because I opened the start menu.

I'm the minority in my family I suppose, because the kid doesn't know better and can barely tell the difference between raspberry pi OS and Windows and the wife "kinda likes it in the middle". I'm also the only one who uses Linux. I feel dirty if I ever have to do something on their computers. I keep a liveUSB of opensuse tumbleweed to minimize my interactions with Windows at home.

Or Windows gives you a blue screen and just "BAD_POOL_HEADER".

I got that intermittently at work on an instrument about every week or two. The best answer I could find was "it could be software or hardware related". Yeah, thanks for that, problem solved. Wish I had thought of that. Not even a time stamp. Finally found out when it occurred to within 20 minutes and there was jack shit in the logs.

IT ended up calling in a service tech to re-image the computer.

Please don't post trash here, find an actual good article with journalistic integrity.

Chris Murphy has a new (and younger, but not necessarily more attractive)

First line. What absolute trash of an article.

I was a manager at our student union building in college, very occasionally I had to go to the back of the food court since I had the magic keys and all. The shear amount of oil coating the floor after mopping in the Sonic area made me never want fast food again. I had non slip shoes and it was still like walking on ice.

Yeah, but you can run 7 Debians on it without trying.

In that case you can just arrest and convict a political opponent of something stupid. Not a good idea

Drivers are on the computer, firmware is in the component. Firmware can be updated in both windows and Linux and will affect both systems. Drivers live solely on the OS, so fedora drivers will not be affecting windows. There's an incredibly small chance that your firmware was updated and caused this, but I don't recall a firmware update ever occurring automatically on Linux, I've always had to do it manually.
