I also don’t care about the notetaking or AI. I like my Bigme Inknote. I actually wound up using it for math class, but that was kind of a one-off. I got a Bigme S7 after, which is hella portable and also a great e-ink e-reader. Yes, they crashed the AI/notes BS into it too, but I just ignore that.

It may have a knife, but it isn’t a knife, so it’s fine! Yes, my boss has some amazing logic. She’s also virulently against open source, because “Anyone could have put code in that…”

I honestly love these reviews about as much as anything else on Lemmy. I wish CKRT could be reliably purchased in Canada… But then, I’d be broke, so… My EDC is… A Leatherman Skeletool. I’m so sorry. My boss wouldn’t let me carry a knife, despite me opening like twenty boxes a day!

I opened the garage door last night, what if my 3D printer got too cold and ruined the print?

Umm… Where are you? Half my circle of friends are near panic about the fact that half of our country is now on fire every summer…

I’m a meatietarian. I love a good burger. I do, however, also love planet Earth. My first impossible burger experiment was awful. The restaurant didn’t cook the damn thing! Was like, “Well, that was a disappointment!” Several years later, A&W had a deal on their veggie burger, and it was great! (A&W Canada, so don’t complain to me if they run it in the States.) Ask me to switch to those burgers in exchange for not dying of heat death or mass fire in the next five to ten? Yeah, sold.

Ahh, I see. Someone else mentioned portainer, that has a lot of “click to do bleh” functions. Might be what the doctor ordered. You could also put the command in a bash script, like restart.sh and then it’ll show up with an ls.

I Tailscale in to my home network, and then from one of the machines I’m the network, I can ssh in (or whatever.)

We don’t. Burritos exist.

Dad joke time: Mostly the Aussies!

I use Cantook on my phone and skip the account setup. I convert Kobo books and other ebooks using Calibre to Epub. I like Cantook because there’s a setting to use the volume buttons to turn pages.

CoMaps works almost, but not quite, as well as Google Maps in my chunk of Canada. Might be worth trying? I believe it is based on the OSM data.

Framework 13 here, KDE Fedora user too. It literally never occurred to me that I could use the fingerprint to log in! Commenting so that whoever answers you can make my day too.

Hear, hear! Spent so Goddamn much time trying to recover a 256gb drive onto a 500gb drive when I had a stinking 1tb drive sitting in the next room! Just thinking about it makes me owe the swear jar another 2$!

Unrelated mini-rant. I had an assignment to write a couple of pages about the logical fallacies evident in the movie shown by one of the jurors, but not number eight. Number eight did have a lot of confirmation bias. I asked if I could write that, and my instructor just went “Sure, go ahead. I’ll be able to give you a zero in the first paragraph and it’ll save me a ton of time making!” This was in a unit called “open-mindedness.” Ty, you’re an ass-hat. Also, a shit teacher!

I have a Windows 11 VM running in Proxmox. It works fine. I put a desktop with a Windows license in the cluster, passed the hardware ID into the VM, it didn’t work, so I hollered at an MS rep for a bit and they activated it for me. I don’t use it for much, but it works.

Well, I think you should’ve splurged for a slightly better keyboard…

My local library has career coaches. They go over results, do mock interviews, but the career coach at my library? He’s a straight up headhunter, and he gets the best walk-ins referred to HR at companies that fit. I had a buddy who was four months unemployed, suggested he talk to the career coach, and dude got him a job in less than two weeks. Also, maybe look at non-profits in your area, might have volunteer or low-paid psych jobs that can get a foot in the door.

My parents lived in a part of the world where they didn’t always have phones. Dad lived on a farm, mom lived in town. School together, Church together. After school, Dad would go “help around the house” at mom’s. Or vice versa. Once they got old enough, one or the other would go to the city in the family car for shopping, and bring the other with. Go see a movie, grab a bite to eat together.

Audio! I went from stereo to 7.1 and got this intense loud buzz that wouldn’t go away! (Fedora KDE). Drove me nuts. Spent hours trying every dang thing. Finally connected it to a Windows machine. Same buzz. My woofer had just ate itself. Nothing to do with Linux at all.
