Papanca, to linux in Noob question: what to arrange before switching to linux

I have heard both sides; some people complained of issues with nvidia on linux, others said; nope, no problem whatsoever.

I’ve been running a live distro and doing exactly that. So far, so good :-)

Lol, thanks. I have some perfectionist tendencies, but good to know i’m not missing something glaringly obvious!

Yes, you’re right, but at least they have a web app, so it’s not a total deal breaker. I think a linux version is in the works, but knowing Proton it can still take a long time before one will be available. I also know that their VPN linux version is pretty shaky for some people.

They will tweak the most unimportant detail and say; we listened to you, now take it!

Yes, there were studies where it was proven that these sounds are actively being reinforced by human interactions; cats learn that this works

I don’t know why you got downvoted, i completely agree with you. They really love fresh food and fresh water (those water fountains), it’s just their nature. It’s not that they are spoiled. Dogs for instance will also eat from a carcass, but wild felines only eat fresh

They don’t need to say that; they will just sit on your papers or laptop, or stand right in front of the tv

The three phrases of kitties:

Let me in!

Let me out!

Give me fresh food, even though my bowl is still pretty full

You always have a choice. Just stay informed, surround yourself with wholesome people, and be willing to change your views if needed. I don’t think you become a certain way just because you age.

Papanca, to asklemmy in Do people become less of a twat as they age?

I’m not that young myself anymore, and i definitely recognize my very strict upbringing you mentioned, but in my view respect needs to be earned. And not once, but over and over again because people change. Seeing most political leaders being very old white men makes me cringe. They often just don’t understand the modern world. Just an example; they make decisions about cybersecurity while i’m convinced they don’t know the first thing about it. They probably rely heavily on their advisors and just echo what they say would be best.

Papanca, to asklemmy in Do people become less of a twat as they age?

Yes, definitely. Another thing that comes to mind, reading your reply, is that people surround themselves with like minded people. That can be a good thing, or very bad.

Some great comments below, but i also wanted to add that i think it depends on how open and honest one is. For example, it happens quite frequently that i change my view on something, because someone (usually one of my adult kids) points out certain things that i didn’t know or thought about. And then i can just apologize and tell them they are right. It keeps me humble and open to other viewpoints or scientific facts that i didn’t know or consider. If someone just kindly points something out to me, that makes it easy to apologize. But if people are hostile and tell you you’re wrong in an aggressive way, then it would be pretty hard to admit you hadn’t thought of that.

But from what i see, there are a lot of people who just don’t want to seem dumb, or are extremely set in their ways, and they will never admit that they were wrong or that there are different ways to see or understand something. Rather, they become angry, or grumble, or change the subject.

Papanca, to asklemmy in What are these comments on lemmy posts?

A few minutes ago Ruud posted that there was a hack, i wonder if it has something to do with that?
