That looks pretty good I’ll have to try and find one in that style thanks!

How do you have them positioned? I have mirrors on my bike but they kinda useless, the slight movements I make on the handlebars+bumps in the road make them too hard to see. If I put them more at the center of my handlebars so they move less then I can’t see anything but my own bike.
There are quite a few pieces of software that have 2 different branding. For instance the windows file searcher agent ransack also goes by “file locator pro” to keep from scaring the corpos.
They literally try and positively review bazzite in the linked video.
If his teasers are to be believed thats what he does for the second installment of this.
I think the purpose of the video is to review who you can just tell to switch to linux and have them be able to do it unassisted in a short time frame. I think it does a pretty good job of showing that, the type of person linus was emulating represents a pretty large group of people and they generally can’t switch without either a large amount of frustration or a helpful friend. Also keep in mind this is the first in a series not a single video.
I think you are grossly overestimating people’s capabilities if you think anyone can switch to linux with no interactive help. https://xkcd.com/2501/ . “Setting up windows” for most people means swiping the credit card and pressing the power button. They do not care about data collection, and if its slow then they think they should buy the upgraded model.
I also think its funny how many of the people in this thread see this as a negative video, when I think it actually shows things in a very positive light, just a realistic one. I have already had someone switch to linux because of this video.
Windows laptops absolutelly come pre-installed with the drivers compatible with that system.
Also while hit or miss windows update will install graphics drivers (on a slower cadence than direct from.nvidia/amd) even in a fresh windows install. It’s a common pain point for windows update to mistakenly downgrade your drivers.
People are being exposed to something outside their bubble, and are lashing out.

I am not a doctor, I just find steel interesting. I also prefer leaf to hash. but I think it’s going to take more than 1000C to create the fumes osha is mainly concerned about, which would make the steel yellow with heat, Even for welders it’s the sort of thing that should concern only people who do it professionally. That said you are kinda directly huffing whatever is coming off it (hypothetically of course). If it’s getting red hot, then it might still be having some oxidation, but it probably isn’t getting into your lungs and it probably is going to stay put in the metal, Probably…
If it’s not glowing at all you are definitely good.
Chromium is only dangerous (in reasonable quantities) when its Hexavalent (meaning it has 6 missing electrons). Trivalent chromium (3 missing electrons) is actually essential in trace amounts. Stainless steel has trivalent chromium. Exposure to high temperatures (welding, plasma cutting, maybe grinding) can oxidize it from trivalent to hexavalent but your kitchen utensils aren’t going to be exposed to that. I’m not an expert though to be clear.
The term “ratio’d” originated from twitter at a time when it had neither upvotes or downvotes (it refered to retweets vs comments). Fundamentally any platform that has more content than can be reasonably consumed by one person must have a way of filtering good and bad posts and as soon as you have that you have people who will chase both the good signal and the bad. You get rid of the upvotes and you encourage people comment farming, you see this on some platforms like tiktok where people will intentionally add in minor errors so that a lot of people comment corrections boosting their engagement or in traditional forums where every other comment is “bump”. Personally I think upvotes are the least bad thing to have people fixate on as it has the least number of side effects.
I do agree that upvote begging like this post is parodying is bad though and should be discouraged.

This is probably paranoid, but a picture of a key is enough information for someone to clone your key fairly easily, probably not the car keys, but definitely what I assume are your house keys.

I smell greenwashing.
So these are manganese and zinc based with a cellulose divider. Manganese is not great to have in a drinking supply, better than lithium but still. I want to know what parts exactly can and can’t be composted.
I was really skeptical until you said trust, now I know I can trust you.

The work around is to refer to yourself as software engineering. “senior software engineering 2” or whatever


If I had infinite money and didn’t have to work, I still would, just less and with some different direction. I don’t think anyone thinks liking one’s job is required, but it’s obviously nice to not actively dislike a 3rd of your life if at all possible.
