  • very neat

    software is always better when there's a face behind it

  • she lived 8 YEARS with a bullet in her head wtf

  • kinda funny you can block their "ad blocker not allowed" banner with ublock

  • i'd recommend getting a new SSD and installing Linux on that, then you can read your windows drive from Linux and copy over the files you need

    Game files can be copied over the same way (obvs to different directories)

  • wtf how does a laptop need drivers to use the keyboard? i thought they just used usb/ps2, that is truly fucked

  • with a usb drive (live usb) you can boot most distros without making changes to your actual system, try that and see which you like the most.

    you'll probably break your install a bunch of times anyway so don't feel like your choice now is permanent

  • moth jumpscare

  • if you get a coreboot compatible laptop you can burn GRUB into your firmware so that it can't ever be destroyed by windows.

    Then you can boot into linux by having GRUB load the /boot/grub/grub.cfg file in your linux FS, or load windows by chainloading into another payload in firmware (e.g. SeaBIOS) that can load windows.

    This is kinda advanced though, and there is a big limitation in that you can only run BIOS (not UEFI) because EDK2, which is the only coreboot payload that can do UEFI can't be chainloaded into from grub

  • where the fuck did i ever say that

  • from what I've heard musk and the HR head is basically destroying spacex from the inside?

    i dislike their upper management but i still appreciate what the people there do, and think what they're doing is incredible

    lemmy doesn't seem to like nuance unfortunately

  • Honda's thing is still epic but you could probably even compare it to delta clipper, from 30 years ago or so

  • rivaling their ... 8 year old technology

    not a fan of musk but spacex seriously leapfrogged everyone in the 2010s

  • I assume bazzite uses kde?

    if so, you should be able to press Super+P to open up the projection menu for changing how external monitors are used

  • god i love ppl outsourcing their learning to Microsoft

  • the carat is such a horrendous unit, why can't we just start saying 75% gold

    it's insane that a unit can be a measurement of mass in one case and a measurement of purity in another

  • tbh 9 months on iss isn't too long, they're experienced astronauts and they had their ride back docked to the iss for a long while anyway. it's probably way more miserable having to hang out with dumbass celebrities for the rest of your life
