dis_honestfamiliar,

Interesting comments here. I’ll share my process. I browse the web in incognito (private) exclusively. If there’s something I want to come back to later, I copy paste the URL into a non private window so that it becomes part of history. So, my history is filled with things I plan to come back to. Then, I bookmark things that I need to come back to more than once.

"Must Try" distros and DEs?

Hey folks! I’m getting a fresh laptop for the first time in about a decade (Framework 16) in a couple of months and am looking forward to doing some low-level tinkering both on the OS and hardware. I’m planning to convert into a “cyberdeck” with quick-release hinges for the screen since I usually use an HMD, built-in...

dis_honestfamiliar,

Try those but also wanted to say enlightenment. I don’t even know if it still exists. If it does, give a try.

dis_honestfamiliar,

I can top this.

I was running hackintosh along side others OSes. Keep in mind it was working fine until it wasn’t. So this hackintosh one day started having a problem. After some time of inactivity, the monitor would sleep. Once it did, it wouldn’t come back up. Only a reboot would help. Eventually I thought it was incompatible with the DVI output since I saw similar hackintosh issues online. I bought a new monitor that would support display port. When I was disconnecting everything I notice that the DVI port wasn’t fully plugged in. 🤦‍♂️

Linux Ubuntu Dual-booting horror

Any and all help would be so greatly appreciated. I’ve been battling with my laptop to be able to dual-boot Ubuntu Cinnamon and Windows 10 for about four days now. I’ve probably gone down five or six different rabbit-holes of troubleshooting, GRUB command-line fun, reinstalling and updating the BIOS, trying and failing to...

It sounds like you have Windows in one disk and Ubuntu in another disk. Confirm this before proceeding.

Now if that’s true, and what you said about dedicated windows ssd on a boot loop, it sounds like MRB needs fixing. I suggest you make yourself a windows 10 USB disk or disc. Run that and when it asks to install, you look for recovery. And try to run the fix boot and recover MRB.

Something like these 2 commands

Bootrec /fixboot

Bootrec /fixmrb

commands

dis_honestfamiliar,

There was this one game called calling for the wii. Since the Wii controller had a speaker, it would ring like a phone and you would answer it, then followed by game’s sound out of it as if you are talking on the phone. Plus it had a story I found interesting.

dis_honestfamiliar,

Yes :‘( I thought degree and projects is all you need. I laughed at those lazy group members, but the joke is on me as some of them now have a job in CS and I don’t (they had an IT job or relative in the industry) Here I’m going on 2 years and I’m still waiting for employers to line up. Or even just one one unsolicited which isn’t spam. :’(

dis_honestfamiliar,

That face shows otherwise. But yeah glass half full.

dis_honestfamiliar,

The differential is usually not enough. I mean almost no income is enough to lose sleep time and time again. Just saying.

Anyway. I’m curious, so please share. What do you do exactly and how did you get to L2?
