Ace here: I have plenty of sex drive, but am not attracted to anyone. I didn't come up with it, but a good analogy is feeling like eating, but you open the fridge and nothing in particular is calling to you.
If you are (or can imagine being) straight or gay, or even just have "a type"... There are people you don't feel inclined to fuck. For me, that set of people is everyone I've met so far. I've been in relationships, albeit rarely, but it's always been when the other person showed a lot of interest to get things started.
There are also people who feel like sex is gross, and not all of them have trauma in their history.
I haven't, but a colleague (small all remote web dev outfit) plays rocket league and had said that pop!os has felt great for games without having to tweak anything. Meanwhile, I tried to play through cult of the lamb while some friends were all playing through it and it wasn't playable
Yep. I got a thinkpad a couple years ago that was enough of a deal that I forgave its nvidia GPU. I followed the documentation on how to connect a repo controlled by nvidia, and since then: a) the actual GPU appears to be used, but b) maximum brightness on the screen is significantly dimmer, and games run worse than they did when the GPU wasn't actually used.
And also I use KDE. I'm still on X11, though, so I didn't complete the set.
That's good to know, thanks. I don't get asked for Linux advice that often, but I'll just recommend mint unless there are extreme hardware restrictions (which I'm sure mint can work with, but I've looked for whatever modern lightweight-focused distro is when it's a concern)
Yeah. "I use OpenSUSE tumbleweed, but have reasons I've been thinking about switching. I consistently hear that mint is a good place to start, or maybe pop!os if you're looking to run games"
I don't actually even say the first sentence unless the question was "what do you use?"
Sometimes, if it's clear they're trying to revive very old hardware I might help them search for something built around being lightweight.
I'm mostly happy with tumbleweed, except that I have the nvidia repo set up and am convinced that it's causing issues. One of these days I'll look into how to try the nouveau drivers and/or how to get from my current setup to dualbooting pop!os without disrupting things I need for work.
Also, an update straight up broke emacs while i was in crunch time once, but I learned to be more careful about my update timing.
This reads as sarcastic to me, but I and many others legitimately do, through the use of a password manager. I have an encrypted database that syncs between my phone, laptop, and a vps, and I occasionally manually back up to a free email account. I only need to remember the one password to unlock the db.
They do/did here in Virginia. They're "skill games" or something. Some law changed it something because they've been turned off with a sign taped to the screen for a while now.
I went through the same path. Gmail came to mind first, then eBay, then a MUD I haven't actually played in ages but double check that my account is there now and then.
Is it just me, or do programmers only come in "lightweight" and "Rivals Þor in trying to drink the oceans dry" varieties?
Somehow I manage to be both. My alcohol tolerance is very high (which is great... I like a little buzz but never want to be actually drunk), but for me, one toke is over the line.
