I just did something similar last week without the seed part but I can say that you howl from the burn of the heat haha

Microsoft has gone too far: including a Game Pass ad in the Settings app ushers in a whole new age of ridiculous over-advertising (www.techradar.com)

Windows 11 is getting out of hand with its push for advertisments, frankly - remember the recent full-screen pop-up to persuade users to install Edge or other Microsoft services? Then another advertisment was placed in the Start menu, and now Microsoft has finally worn my temper thin - with a new Game Pass ad coming to the...

the issue I have had with PopOS is multi-monitor support, I cant rotate my rotated second monitor except through the nvidia settings, and my settings get wiped after a reboot, its a known issue for years, other than that I havent had any problems, I have been slowly finding replacement software for everything that I used on windows

Try out krita, rawtherapee, darktable, for photoshop stuffs, depending on what you need.

The Adobe stuff always held me back before but I finally just started messing with linux and trying stuff out. I don't need photoshop for professional use so I was fine spending the time trying to find alternatives for what I needed

To those of you with nothing to hide: One day you might have. Because you don’t make the rules. (mullvad.net)

The most common argument used in defense of mass surveillance is ‘If you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear’. Try saying that to women in the US states where abortion has suddenly become illegal. Say it to investigative journalists in authoritarian countries. Saying ‘I have nothing to hide’ means you stop...

It's not that I have something to hide, it's that I don't trust your judgment

variants ,

What would be the final straw

variants ,

I was in the same boat, I have a dual boot main machine now but I haven't booted I to windows since I installed Pop!OS, I've been mostly just seeing what alternatives to everything so far, especially photo stuff, but I seem to be pretty settled now after messing with popos on a little thin client and little second pc I keep at work

Haha my coworker told me the same thing, that when her baby came out and she saw her for the first time she couldn't believe how such a beautiful creature could exist, then a few days later she saw the picture and was like that's what she actually looked like?

There are laws that prevent the theft of someone's catalytic converter as well

I mean honestly yeah after working multiple jobs for years I had to wake up around 4 to be able to get off work around 2 to make it to my second job at 3 now even though I have a single job I still get up at 4 it's just ingrained at this point, thr benefit is I still get off at 230 and if people want me to stay past that at least it's over time pay

The bad guy is the dude who made a hole

The demand may not be by the end user but by businesses that need to fill stuff with filler text. Say you're working for an automotive company and have to pull off a big email campaign you can use generative ai to help you type up a couple dozen emails, sure they'll be crappy but you finished your work by the deadline so spending the company money for a service like that seems worth it

variants ,

It's not that they shouldn't be correct it's that people are expected to do the job of multiple people with limited budgets so they contract their work out to services or don't take the time to double check stuff.

When I worked with the marketing people ot was a team of 3 that had to cover the US mexico and Canada, so they would have people on retainer to make things like art or text for a lot of the stuff, but I can see how they could use a service that used ai for those things

Look at what happened with Wacom, so I just see this kind of cost cutting is appealing to businesses that want to cut costs at the expense of quality

Again I'm not saying it's good but there is demand for this stuff as shitty as it is

When they start getting beat in the street by the same people they thought were on their side for not being the right kind of person

One time we saw this weener slinger in a parking lot that basically had a drive-thru operation going and we got intrigued but wernt hungry at the time.

So we went out looking for him again on another day and found him somewhere else and got ready for some dinner glizzies, but he was charging $14!

We had come all this way so we had to still get them and they were very good with a side of fries and a canned drink but no matter what $14 for a hot dog is just not right

variants ,

We went to this new local spot that opened up on the corner by our house and it's pretty solid. So my bro in law took some of his friends when they came to visit and just destroyed the place. They knew too much about the food and even noticed the panko crusted shrimp appetizer was just the frozen one you can get at Costco. Haven't been back since just because of my world being shattered

Welp the wake up call already pushed me to linux, finally

Man that's such a good idea, I need to invest in a bathroom briefcase, with a built in cyberdeck and subwoofer

Do the turds fall straight to the highway as you're driving around?

variants ,

Second rule in the book of the road is driver controls the stereo. Now more cars you have to plug in or connect Bluetooth so it's safe to assume that if you're connected to a car stereo you're the driver

To be more realistic the wolfox would be saying he is going to eat all the sheep, and the sheep will be talking amongst themselves saying he'll settle down once he gets into power and what he is saying is just to anger the wokes

I mean there's so many different fridges you can buy but I've only heard of two dying. One was a compressor issue but that's all I know about it. The other one was a valve or something went bad but with the help of youtube my brother was able to diagnose it and replace the part. Apparently that's the most common failed part on at least that brand of fridges

And then this guy took off his denim jacket
And his shirt said "Bark At the Moon"
He was a headbanger
He whipped his head around so fast
He gave himself a concussion

But eggs need ketchup too, come to think of it, ever food source known to man needs ketchup

BBB helped me get a refund from Adobe after they restarted my Adobe contract without warning at non student pricing, and when I asked for them to cancel it they would charge me a full year as cancelation fee, so I complained on the bbb site and bam every thing got reversed

Email the researchers with your complaints

Sure but I doubt these researchers are in a position to provide all that

Spotify is raising the cost of Premium subscriptions, again (www.engadget.com)

Spotify is officially raising its Premium subscription rates in the US come July, following reports of the move in April. The platform is increasing its Individual plan from $11 to $12 monthly and its Duo plan from $15 to $17 monthly — the same jump as last year's $1 and $2 price hikes, respectively. However, its Family plan...

I tried sourcing my own music but man it's a lot harder than movies and shows. Especially when you like to hear random recommended music how do you get enough

It depends on the server. Most servers set it to require an email verified account because of all the bots and spammers, I haven't joined any that required a phone number but might if they support a product and want to link your discord to their orders or something

Does the form factor between 3.5" and 2.5" matter in a NAS server? (slrpnk.net)

Been finding some good deals on 2.5 disks lately, but have never bought one before. Have a couple of 3.5 disks on the other hand in my Unraid server. Wondering how much it matters wether I get a 2.5 or not? What form factor do you prefer/usually go for?

variants ,

I recently started getting my drives from serverpartdeals 3.5". The refrubs seem to work great for my use case of just media. I have a second unraid server that is just 2.5" ssd's and 4 nvme's that I use for my personal files and photos since it's a much smaller and low power build I can stuff a bunch in a mini itx case so 2.5" is great for that

I mean the way people leave public restrooms is probably the same way the water in a swimming pool is

variants ,

My old coworker always talked about how at the place he worked at before they would take their morning cup of coffee into the restroom and drink their coffee and talk as they pooped and he always wanted us to do that. Something about eating in a restroom just doesn't feel right to me
