SHE BETTER BE MORE WORRIED ABOUT THE NUT WHEN SHE GETS THERE - AYOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I think I actually fixed it?

i tried to do an os refresh but kept getting some generic error bc the backup partition wouldnt update?

after a bunch of fumbling around I actually slowed down and took a second to read the errors and saw an error for a game i had removed.

so after ducking around (intentional duckduckgo pun) i found the sudo apt purge command and zapped it

then i followed https://support.system76.com/articles/upgrade-pop/ and some things happened and downloaded and i rebooted

and its working now? I will know for sure if its working if doesn't start happening again in an hour.

but i think it might be good to go based on that experience.

Edit: continues to work. Might be solid. Will report back tomorrow.

So I turned off fractional scaling (i did that before as well and nothing changed) and ran more updates and then shut down and rebooted- issue seems to be stopped for the moment.

if it comes back, I will create an update post. Thanks!

edit - it did come back but see response below.

I'm going to attempt an os refresh and see if that does anything.

Will report back.

Yeah that was a major oversight from the Obama administration. Feels bad.

Your are right. I was extra when I wrote that. I will make an edit.

Fair fair fair - a lot of good points have been made and I was misinformed about biodiesel.

I'm not saying that there isn't a place for large vehicles but the tend of bigger bigger bigger needs to calm the fuck down.

Hey friend. For context I meant lithium from other countries.

Yes, we are all in agreement on this.

If they could only use hog shit to power me - but don't get me started on NC pig farms. Disgusting.

Fuck yeah in interested change my wrong ass and uninformed opinions.

♥️

I'm just saying right now more than 80% of all energy in the use comes from non renewable / non nuclear power. I'm glad your area has great renewable energy sources in place.

I'm powered by Sharon Harris nuclear plant.

I'm not saying that EVs aren't better, I'm saying that it's not a magic bandaid. Obviously there is not one fix or easy fix.

I don't need to get into my corpo hate right now because I'm tired and I just wanna mine space rocks.

Where does your power come from? You don't just plug into the wall and get magic clean energy. You are just shifting the shit elsewhere.

It's a lie told to sell you a good and you are eating it up.

Less than 8% of energy consumption in the US comes from renewable energy. Another 8% come from nuclear.

That's petrol / natural gas / coal powering your home, factories, shops, and restaurant. Natural gas is not green, it's greenwashed.

It's not that easy. Sprawl needs to be addressed. Our cities are build around cars. You can't slap a few busses in a town expect shit to work.

I work an hour away from my home. I would take a train but there isnt one that is reliable or cheaper than driving.

Having a light rail system that connected the east coast would take centuries unless the government acted with unprecedented action and speed even then it would be decades.

I'd love more public transportation yes.

I am saying right off the bat I think biodiesel would be a more viable alternativ as it could be relatively easily adopted as the infrastructure is already in place.

Edit - I was probably a bit verbose when I wrote this. Clearly it won't take centuries. Decade or two at the most

Edit two: I was also misinformed about biodiesel - thanks for the helpful information, I appreciate it.

Biodiesel specifically due to it's relatively clean manufacturing process. Cost not withstanding. Cost will go down as adoption improves.

Oh wow a whole 3.2 million.

Nuclear gang rise up.

Evs make us reliant on lithium which just shifts the problem to another country. Additionally - the infrastructure is not there for evs.

I think the best alternative right now would be biodiesel hybrids and straight biodiesel vehicles and FUCKING SMALLER VEHICLES
