someone told me about it while in the hospital and I didn't fucking write it down and I'm pissed 😩

I hate using The Big Light™, but I can't always have my room dark. My led strip that is up in the corner of the ceiling just died, so I'm looking for replacements. I'm not opposed to another one, I'm just curious what all else there is. thanks

edit: I might actually just replace my big light bulbs with hue bulbs or something (though those are mad expensive)

or if any of y'all wanna chat, I got heeeeellllla time on my hands

Spirits, what should one do if they catch their girlfriend cheating on them?

I can easily find things like rent, internet, insurance prices, but how do I find things like grocery prices? I honestly don't even know what an average grocery list might look like, are there resources to help with this? my gf and I are looking into moving out, and assuming a monthly income of ~4400 USD and rent being 500 USD, I think we should be okay, but I need to be 100% that we won't be barely scraping by or anything. thank you everyone

I'm putting away $300 a month, my question is where to put it. savings account has basically 0 interest, there are HYSA (high yield savings account) that would give me 3-5% apy, or I already have some money in stocks that have grown consistently 25% over the last year (index funds only)

what would you guys recommend? I'm looking to buy it probably 3 years from now. that way either I've got a fat down payment or I can just buy it cash

thanks

I just need it to have icon pack support. I don't want anything weird or innovative, just basic (so things like pie and kiss are out)

neo launcher is buggy and hasn't been updated in 2 years, same with lawnchair, and neither of those have widgets working currently. the stock graphene os launcher has zero customization, fossify launcher doesn't support icon packs. ideally Foss, but whatever at this point. bonus points is it supports private space. Thanks guys

It should be that if i close the laptop and leave it, even overnight, it should only lose maybe 5% battery, but it actually loses all of it, as if it was on (it gets maybe 5 hrs of battery life)

I have it set to sleep after 5 minutes. What sorts of logs should I check to diagnose the problem?

Fedora 41 KDE spin on a 6th gen lenovo x1 carbon (intel i5-8650U)

aside from this, i really am enjoying linux on my new toy

thank you all

Currently the only thing stopping me from moving over is that the only way to get lossless music strreaming is through qobuzz, and im too lazy to move from apple music. what i just thought of though, is maybe running a windows or macos vm, and keeping apple music in there. how good is the audio though? does anyone know if bit perfect audio passthrough is possible? thank you

I love aves libre, but unfortunately it does not support HDR, which is important to me, since I record HDR videos on my phone

I'd like to not use Google photos

I know for photos i could throw them through something like Converseen to take them from .jpg to .jxl, preserving the quality (identical visially, even when pixel peeping), but reducing file size by around 30%. What about video? My videos are in .h265, but can i reencode them more efficiently? im assuming that if my phone has to do live encoding, its not really making it as efficient as it could. could file sizes be reduced without losing quality by throwing some processing time at it? thank you all

When I open an HDR video in Google Photos, HDR/SDR ratio goes up to 7.99. Photos it goes up to 4.99 or so

Aves doesn't go that

any ideas?

in upper body daya I can leave the gym basically dry. leg day though I'm drenched

both days I push to or close to failure

roughly same amount of time

is it just because legs haveuch more muscle mass?

Ive usually bought champion ($35 ususally) and theyre decent, but theres gotta be other stuff out there. Im looking at as colour right now, because i got a hoodie at a festival from them and its super nice, but theyre $50 each unless you buy in bulk

what brands are out there that wont be a scratchy mess on the inside in one year?

every time we go out to eat, I take like two bites and feel like throwing up, and I'm not one to get nauseous easily. this only started when we started dating (wed been best friends for 3 years or so up until that)

its not new food, I've been to these places many times before

Ive rawdogged it with my real name, and a bare email (no alias), no vpn, bone stock chrome, and they still need a video selfie from me. im not comfortable with that (though i might cave eventually, i need to look at cheap shitboxes, dont know of any oother sites like that)

thanks all

I'm guessing it drives more profits

Ceramic coating a car makes water bead right off, but the best brake pads and clutches are also ceramic (aside from carbon ceramic and carbon carbon)

Answered: basically ceramic is a wide range of materials with vastly different properties

I just setup a minecraft server on an old laptop, but to make it acessible i needed to open up a port. Currently, these are the ufw rules i have. when my friends want to connect, i will have them find their public ip and ill whilelist only them. is this secure enough? thanks
