For the first time ever, teaching as well as the best human tutors is within our reach.

No it fucking isn't. The video calls are awful and don't do anything to help you learn why what you said is wrong. Lilly just acts confused and ignores what you said. And in their normal explanations it just assumes why you didn't know something, gives an answer for what it guessed, and doesn't do anything else. The old explanations were much better than the new garbage they offer.

just moving them to a dedicated window.

That's the key, it's like having a separate window, but without the separate window.

At work I'll open anywhere between 40 and 100 tabs at a time, but I want to keep them near my existing tabs and not in another window. I have an extension that opens them all in a new tab group. I typically work from the left edge of the group and close out of tabs as I get through them. I can still hop between my non grouped and grouped tabs without having to change windows. And if I want to pause it for a bit then I "minimize" the group like a window.

I prefer wide local area network.

Actually now I’m curious. Could you do a lan game over a cell connection? Do carriers isolate devices?

And this is the reason why I use lemmy and not mastodon.

Right after post I’ll get a blinking cursor for about a full minute until it boots in

Check your BIOS boot settings. AMD FX series should support EFI boot so if you haven't already switch to EFI and disable legacy/CSM support. And if you haven't already turn of PXE boot unless you use it. Sounds like some device has a boot up "bios" device that's hanging the boot process/PXE boot is trying to do it's autoconfigure.

At work we have these phones that sit plugged in all day and run stuff. I got tired of having 6 phones scattered on my desk and wanted to organize them. So I designed and printed this little tower for them.

Each level is stackable so you can make it as tall as you want. The phones sit in little trays that make it easy for them to slide in and out. And on the side there’s fans to blow air over the phones and keep them cool. I recently added air filters but apparently I didn’t take any pictures of it yet.

Absolutely. That's why race to idle is a thing. As soon as the CPU is fed cycles it races to complete the task as quickly as possible. When the program first launches and starts monitoring the only thing it knows is that it was just doing something. It hasn't had a change to not do something. It's now completed its race and now it's able to relax for a second and idle.

Because you’re not supposed to.

Until Covid one of my co workers was a travel agent. It’s a not insignificant field. People still want to plan their trip and need some advice and would rather pay someone who knows their shit vs digging through the internet.

They're apparently massive pieces of shit and very unreliable. But that makes sense for a product with a Pininfarina product. (yes I know they do the outsides of products not the insides)

The machines used to be relatively fast. But over time they've gotten slower and slower to the point it takes multiple seconds to respond to a touch.

Fixed link

Anything less than full size/tkl and the keys they cut always end up annoying me.

I have a keychron K8 pro at work and a WASD code at home. I just learned that wasd went out of business the other day and now I’m very sad :( I’ve had my code for over 10 years and I have 0 plans on getting rid of it.

Doubt it. It's not like Windows 10 is going to stop working or something.

It’s literally just the company saying they have (will have?) this product soon™️, and someone reporting that. What exactly are you looking for beyond that?

SSD speed only affects boot time. Which on any reasonable SSD isn’t bad.

Linux distros can use a good bit less ram than windows, but the gap isn’t that big. Unless you’re borderline on windows Linux won’t make much of a difference. Especially the more noob friendly distros since they tend to be more bloated.

And they only talk about games built for windows through proton/whatever because native games suck balls. Proton emulating windows made Linux gaming good. Native Linux gaming is still typically worse than native windows.

This is a classic case of a Linux user speaking out of their ass about windows. If you're in the EU it should not come back.

Not used. Nobody really sells knockoff chargers used.

Also in the age of USB C it's not even relevant. At this point I just buy USB C to whatever laptop charger port I need.

Those power supplies can be expensive

Used official ones are like $20 on ebay.

I just blocked the instance entirely. I'm not interested in seeing porn browsing lemmy, and I doubt the people who made an account on the porn community are posting the most enlightening non porn stuff.
