  • There is no need to seek a diagnosis as that only will put you into drugs.

    Extreme hard disagree

  • That does not sound healthy. It sounds like it is having a significant impact on your work.

    I have no idea what could be going on. But it sounds like you are chasing dopamine, all else be damned.

    The reason for these switches doesn't seem to be worth the effort of switching so it seems kind of irrational and driven by ...something. Euphoria? Compulsion? Maybe it is an impulse control thing? I'm not a psychologist so what do I know.

    I think a less impulsive approach would be to evaluate the pros and cons of the options, even if briefly, and decide once and for all if a major switch in OS was needed. Or if there were a more measured approach like installing windows on a separate disk.

    It sounds like you're just kind of burning the house down and rebuilding on a whim and as a result can't get anything done.

    Aren't you worried you're going to get fired when they ask you what you've gotten done in the last month and you tell them, "nothing except changing operating systems a dozen times?" (He asks, as he is blowing off work again today... We all got our issues I guess)

  • I wonder how many people in America agree with him about Hitler. No, actually I don't think I want to know.

  • I promise you'd be surprised what being interested in a topic can do. He doesn't give a flying fuck about intelligence briefings. But a book by a genocidal dictator? Now that will really pique his interest.

  • It is, yeah. Nobara has been great for the most part. Though it isn't as polished as I've found Mint to be (without more contributors I don't see how it could be). But really the only reason I switched was for GPU support that the 6.x kernel provided.

  • No idea but I'm curious to hear what you find!

  • When our espresso machine kicked it I was using a French press again for a while and did the bloom thing for the first time based on some advice from who knows where. I should have done an A-B test comparing bloom to not bloom, because I'm skeptical that it matters.

  • The thing is... What about all the other political positions? Senate, House, state level, etc. need funds and ads and all that to win. I guess if he wins and declares himself "Supreme Dictator For Life," maybe it doesn't matter. Otherwise, state representation has a lot of power. I guess the chuds will vote red down ballot but if RNC becomes as dysfunctional as donnie dumbass, they're going to lose a lot more elections.

  • I don't think I've even seen an OS/2 system in person, unfortunately. This article makes me want to try it out. I've got an old Thinkpad 760 knocking about somewhere...

  • Totally agree.

    Ok, folks, one of us needs to do a PR on this app to implement this fella's feature request!

  • Maybe in my old age, I have mellowed out and realized, like everyone else, I can be a dummy at times. And so I am a hell of a lot more patient with users who don't know everything (or much of anything). I also have become more interested in human factors (mostly as a spectator...or victim).

    Looking at this I am actually kind of curious what their specific workflows are. While "cut" might do the trick if I had to cut and paste files to a bunch of different directories I would want to bash my head in. (Of course I would be using Linux, btw, and would do it at the shell prompt lol) But seriously, there is a better way to reorganize many files to many directories in a UI than cut/paste.

    When I was 25, and an insufferably arrogant IT nerd, I would've downvoted you and mocked this hapless individual; I hang my head in shame thinking about who I used to be. :( I've come a long way. I'm not as arrogant... I'm just insufferable! \o/

  • That was my concern with Nobara as well. That and the wonky patching process (on the command line), a footgun I used on myself recently. I've been on Fedora for a few months. Maybe it is time to give Garuda a go.

  • Seriously, nothing could make me happier than this dysfunctional, demented dick bag taking charge of the RNC. Everything he runs, he sucks dry and runs into the ground. So long as he doesn't get elected, maybe this is the death knell of the Republican party. Where are my progressive peeps at to break off from the Dems and form a new party and get shot on track?

  • "So you say we get to go to a free camp? Where we can stud--oh, where we can really concentrate? Wow sign me up."

  • What the fuck

    Whatever is feeding you ideas like this you need to break the hell away before it ruins you for life.

  • "Never seen her, she doesn't exist, who is Donald Trump, never knew him" --djt probably
