I have kept windows on a separate ssd, but I find dual booting very disruptive, I don't want to reboot to change between tasks, I've tried it already in the past and it sucks.

Eh, games haven't been as captivating as they were when I was a teen, but it's not the games' fault

I miss when antitrust actually existed

I've just converted my last Windows PC, meaning my gaming desktop, to Linux, now I need to figure out how to run SOLIDWORKS on it .. thinking a VM with GPU passthrough, but I'm a bit scared of the endeavor, despite having been a regular Linux user for I guess almost two decades.

Firefox Sync doesn't work on iPhone?

Watch out, it's a slippery slope... You start with a raspberry pi and a USB drive, you end up with a virtualization server and a zfs pool

I wonder wtf you guys do to your pasta, it's like the easiest thing to cook... Boil water, add salt, wait for the time written on the box (or just look at it, you'll see when it's done).

It's a common trope in all media. Alessandro Manzoni did that with The Unnamed in the 1800s

One's hokt and the other is faith

Awesome software, thanks a lot

Maybe that's how it works in your country, but not in mine

Brake line bleeding is a must-have skill for anyone with brakes. Otherwise you can never be sure not to have air in the brake lines. Really it's irresponsible not to know how to do this if you have a vehicle with idraulic brakes.

Well, countries' laws, with some exceptions, only have authority within their own borders.

If you re-sell for example stolen goods, your proceeds from those sale may be taken from you together with whatever stolen good you have on stock, and if you are found to be aware of the illegal origin of those goods, then you are an accomplice and are charged accordingly.

That's why buyers of used items have the difficult task of ascertaining whether those items are stolen or not.

Or maybe she knows exactly what she needs and decided to buy a ROG Laptop

It's quite simple honestly, if you profit off something, you have the responsibility to make sure it's legal. We all like platforms like YouTube where you can find anything you want, but the truth is that they're currently unsustainable when forced to comply with the law.

With the advent of AI there's hope for improved systems for detecting violations, but it doesn't seem to be there yet.

I think I'd keep the original buttons though

Hundreds of pissed off trek fans adamant that a black woman should not be the main character

No one should be the main character in star trek, it's always been about groups of people working together to overcome difficulties, Discovery shat on that and created a character who's always right no matter what. People shat on Picard for the same reason.

hating that there were no men on the bridge

SNW has what, 3 men in the whole main cast? People love it.

The show writers making episodes like the Kira porn holonovel also didn't help, Quark should have been kicked off the station for that. It's not very star trek to let sexual harrassment happen so blatently, is it? Oh wait, yeah no it was fine. Slap on the wrists, no big deal.

Quark also almost caused Jadzia's death when he let in the guy who wanted to steal her symbiont, it's just a bit of bad writing where they shouldn't let a main character they intend to keep cross certain lines.

Bashir skulking around begging Dax for a date and monologing about winning his prize, was creepy as fuck too

Who said people liked that? Everyone says the first two seasons of DS9 were bad, for many reasons.

You guys need to keep in mind there's a huge cross over between nerds and incels

You should stop trying so hard to find reasons to hate people. Incel is a derogatory term, by the way, in its base interpretation it's just someone who can't get a partner, not necessarily a vile person. You're the one being toxic in this case.

old white guys who like imagining white guys in charge of exploring space and getting to fuck all the alien women.

Worf's one of the most beloved characters, and the one with the most episodes, and he's black.

No one's saying Trek's perfect, but you should stop trying to find faults in its fandom just for the sake of being contrarian.

This implies two snails at some point lived in the same shell

I even liked the musical episode
