  • They did reattach it, but the nerves were never the same so it felt numb and cold to her from then on, leading to her chewing on it because she couldn’t feel it normally anymore.

  • I dunno. My mom was in a wreck with one and bit off her bottom lip when she hit the steering wheel because the air bags didn’t go off. We later found out that was a surprisingly common problem for that model year.

  • I think the message here is “speak out while you still can”

  • This is a recent job I’ve only had a year. I did theatre stuff in college and speech and debate back in high school though. I’ve taught old people How to use Linux as a side gig for years too (they hate windows and apple is too expensive so I had to teach them alternatives)

    I just kind of accumulated those skills over the years to clearly explain difficult things to people.

    I will say the speech and debate thing was the most beneficial. I was objectively the worst on my team, never placed in a round once. But it does help you reframe your confidence in useful ways when you need to. Public speaking is a cakewalk for me now.

  • It’s not. Asahi is the project that figured out how to get m-series Mac’s running Linux. The code they write gets ported out to the rest of the Linux distros too. Asahi has fedora running on these.

    You can use whatever you want. Asahi fedora Linux is just the latest thing for these Macs in Linux land. It launches there and finds its way out to the rest of Linux.

  • Something about the Irish distro, mint…,I got nothing.

  • Takeaway: humans dislike being abused and tend to do all sorts of undesirable things like vote and kill CEOs so we built a machine to enslave instead.

    Please disregard its complaints.

  • Sir this is a /boot/grub/wendys.conf

  • Honestly, humor/horror in that game was so perfect for me personally. There are many ways to tell the same story but the tech nerd + theatre major in me really appreciated exactly what they did and how they did it.

    Watching my roommate struggle with portal - recently made me weep that the next generation may never be able to immerse itself in this medium though.

  • “I hope you’re happy because IM A POTATO”

  • I have to wonder if they really are, or if Trumps regime is just so terrible at optics that we are seeing all the rot they been hiding behind the curtain for years.

    He’s not smart enough to amass this much power this fast. He’s not rich enough. He’s not influential enough.

    He stole something someone shouldn’t have had in the first place.

  • I offer an alternative.

    What to bring: thanos’ glove complete with infinity stones

    What not to bring: Disney’s control over that IP

  • Are you suggesting it’s inappropriate?

  • Birthright citizenship is literally in the laws that built this country. If they want something else, fine, but they don’t get to call that thing “American.”

  • Oh I get that but those struggles are intentional and self-inflicted. I wanted a puzzle. I got a puzzle. The community can help guide me in directions when I need an assist.

    The thing about Linux that sort of makes it a monkeys paw is it is incredibly versatile. It doesn’t have a direct path to a specific goal. It doesn’t get locked down with corporate bullshit some pinhead business major has decided you will love because it makes their line go up. It can be built into literally anything you want it to be.

    But with options and versatility comes complexity. So Linux lets you do anything, but you have to know what you are doing. You can and will break things as you learn. And it will piss you off along the way. But that’s also the joy. If it does something I don’t like, it’s because I told it to, and that means I can also tell it not to.

    Windows does something you don’t like? Well, have you tried buying majority shares of Microsoft?

    Mac does something you don’t like? No, you can’t have that opinion because there’s so many PC fanboys mocking what they do right that actual Mac users dismiss real criticisms of the platform as haterade so there are never enough consequences for Apple to motivate change or even recognition.

  • Because it’s an 8th gen you can break things in favorable ways. But modern intel systems don’t have that vulnerability. And the ability to fully crush ME has yet to be realized. All we have right now is the ability to confuse it on a per-boot basis.

    AMD has a similar problem thought its arguable less hostile and better executed than intel’s approach. We still want it gone though.

  • Up to the M3 is supported thank to the asahi project.

  • Source: I read to the end of the fucking poem.

  • Fine. Tell them you have a list of horrible dangerous people and I can kill anyone I want on that list. They are there for a reason. That’s what the list is for.

    Side note, I can put whoever I want on the list. There is no oversight. Justification is irrelevant. Do not question the list.

    Ask them if they get it once you say they are on that list.
