he's a minority owner, don't think he himself even holds a majority of voting shares outright--there's some bullshit and shenanigans going on that gives him the 'control'. iirc, it requires near-90% approval of all non-musk held voting shares to make 'major' changes like ousting a board member or ceo. that's why he's still 'in charge'

A separate drive is far better as linux can be the drive booted by the BIOS and then Grub can then point back to your untouched windows drive to boot it when you want.

this is the way to do it.

i have one system at home set up like this. boot menu's been borked for years by an update. won't boot the other drive, never have bothered to fix it--i just bring up the bios boot drive select and boot it that way.

it took me way longer than i care to admit to see slippers.

it's the emergency water dish for the dog. looks a little low, better fill it up a bit.

mastodon was the only one of the three i recognized straight-away.

passing the buck, straight from the narcissist prayerplaybook.

two dolls instead of 30 dolls

so stuff is gonna cost 15x more by december? i can hardly wait. better go reserve my new home site down by the river now--so i can get a good spot under some cover.

if it walks like a duckcult..
talks like a duckcult..
acts like a duckcult..
dresses like a duckcult..
oppresses minorities like a duckcult..
suppresses the vote like a duckcult..
squashes free speech like a duckcult..
censors the press like a duckcult..
detains and arrests the opposition like a duckcult..
denies science and facts like a duckcult..
defies the law like a duckcult..
rewrites history like a duckcult..

guess what.. it's a fucking cult.

you are not wrong.

the mint installer can resize on the fly, and let you choose how much space to 'take' from windows, during install if you choose 'install alongside windows'. always backup your important stuff first, disable bitlocker (if applicable) and let it finish, and do a full shutdown from windows (shutdown /s /t 0) before installing linux as a dual boot like that.

but since you've already maybe mukked up the partitions, i dunno how that would work. probably need to 'unmuk' the drive first and make sure filesystems & everything are 'ok'.

safety rules and regulations are usually 'written in blood'.

Even after eliminating all those government programs and laying off/firing all those federal employees,

the federal government still managed to spend over $200 billion more in BLOTUS' first 100 days than same time frame last year.

the good economy was lost in hillary's emails.

okra is totally underrated.

when a company puts its reps at a disadvantage by always being grossly understaffed and having hour+ wait times.. who's the 'horrible' people? the company or the caller?

it's just sensible. if you take from one end, you run the risk of unexpectedly grabbing the 'light end' and accidentally dropping the partial carton on the floor next time you take it out of the fridge.

afaik, even if you don't pay and never pay, features like onstar are still 'active', still have cellular connections enabled, and are still tracking your every move.

yup. starlink might be tanking, too. they're having to give away hardware and discount monthly rates these days.

above all else, processed foods are designed to maximize profits.

that's one hell of a water bill if you were in the shower counting to one million.
