I work in I.T. and am interested in every sub-field. I also study English, Spanish, German, French, Koine Greek, Latin, Mandarin & Swahili. I’m interested in human culture.

I like Linux, but mainly use Windows because of work.

He’s definitely aware that the employees don’t care about the shareholders, but his solution is to bring in therapists for the C-suites.

1024_Kibibytes,

I’d rather the healthcare personally.

1024_Kibibytes,

Reboot and see if it still happens. If it does, is it always the same characters that are missing?

A quick search for “Linux missing characters” says it could be the font that you’re using.

Ice cream should make whatever fate awaits him better. Dying while eating ice cream seems like one of the more pleasant ways.

1024_Kibibytes,

That is a possibility, but $5 of ice cream isn’t enough to do most people any damage, although I suppose it could be the start of diabetes.

Shooting and being kind are usually mutually exclusive.

What would cause a hard drive's, in an enclosure, filesystem to not mount in PopOs?

Originally posted in the linux community but wanted to expand my results a bit. Hopefully this isnt considered tech support since the problem is already solved and I just want information. (Copy & pasted) Still new to linux hope its ok to ask here. I decided to replace one of my backup drives for the first time in 5ish years...

1024_Kibibytes,

If you could mount it with the mount command, the drive is likely physically fine. My guess would be that something in PopOS didn’t mount the filesystem correctly. I’m not sure how PopOS handles automatically mounting drives. If it were a drive that was always connected, you could tell PopOS to mount it on every boot by putting the correct line in /etc/fstab

I think most of the Henrys are English?

1024_Kibibytes,

That reminds me of this video of a bear seeing it’s own reflection:

1024_Kibibytes,

Unless the animals have developed a way to move for miles every day, there should be predators who are adjusted for the night side, and predators who are adjusted for the day side that would be well known and defended against from the prey on their side. For a sentient species, figuring out how to defend against one or the other shouldn’t be too hard.

What would be harder to defend against would be those predators who live in the twilight areas are close to both day & night.

To take this thought to the logical maximum, we are all under the stars, always. All buildings are ultimately outside, and therefore under the stars. Even in the sub-basement of the tallest building, the floors above aren’t that high compared to the atmosphere, and it’s still under the stars.

1024_Kibibytes,

That is an excellent point!

Is there any christian religions that don't believe in space?

So I have a born again christian family member in their mid twenties who stated with complete confidence that there is a dome in the sky called the firmament and beyond it is where heaven is. She believes space doesn’t exist and rockets just blow up because the bible said so. She is not the brightest and normally I would let...

1024_Kibibytes,

In 6,000 year creationism, some sects believe there was a physical firmament (basically a shell of ice around the earth), but that it fell during Noah’s flood.

1024_Kibibytes,

American here. Is a bicycle anything like a motorcycle?

1024_Kibibytes,

Hmmm, is that why so many Americans have hearing loss? 😮

Seriously, vehicles and machines are definitely a big part of why I do have hearing loss

1024_Kibibytes,

Exactly right. Corporations need to understand that workers apply to a bunch of places that are likely to hire them and workers have to understand that the company has received probably hundreds of applications for the position. Nobody is special until 2 actual people have & maintain a relationship.

1024_Kibibytes,

Traveling within 10 feet of another vehicle where the speeds are measured as a percentage of the speed of sound (Mach) is definitely flying like a moron.

1024_Kibibytes,

True, but that is well planned, both pilots probably meet before the flight, I think, and actually discuss the whole routine including the distance, because unexpected turbulence and a dozen other factors can throw the plan off, whereas fighter jet meets B-52 without any plan or possibly even contact, at 400+ knots is a bad idea.

She wants the guy to go for a walk and leave her alone in the house.

Arkansas lawmakers OK plan to audit purchase of $19,000 lectern for Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders (apnews.com)

Arkansas lawmakers on Thursday voted to audit the purchase of a $19,000 lectern for Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders, delving into an unusual controversy that’s prompted questions about the seemingly high cost of the item and claims that the governor’s office violated the state’s open-records law....

1024_Kibibytes,

Somebody posted in another thread. It’s the data center for AT&T and the NSA in Manhattan.

1024_Kibibytes,

And sometimes a sandwich is art.

1024_Kibibytes,

But what about when the share price reaches $6 1? Then you’ve made a whole dollar. Who knows? You could make $2.

1024_Kibibytes,

The position is for a senior web engineer, so you either look at the company website and say “hmm” or you open a development app, write the HTML tag, maybe a head or css tag, then save the document.

1024_Kibibytes,

He did invent the modern computer.

1024_Kibibytes,

But work almost always uses energy. Be lazy and do less to save energy. A machine that beeps less does less work.

1024_Kibibytes,

As a man currently wearing pants, like #2. Pants do not have 4 legs. The clothing item represented by #1 is not pants. If it had a back, or might be a body suit.

1024_Kibibytes,

Increasing the CPU optimization by 0.02% does seem crazy to me. If you’re going to spend time working on something, make it worthwhile. Also, isn’t while(true) {print(money)} Microsoft, Apple and Amazon:s business model?

1024_Kibibytes,

He had been on a whirlwind trip according to the headline. The headline might as well read “president has jet lag and isn’t quite sure of the time after traveling halfway around the world”. That’s a non-story and something a lot of people would experience

1024_Kibibytes,

That’s not quite Blahaj, but Blahaj doesn’t seem scary

1024_Kibibytes,

I also like some things. I don’t like all stuff, but I like many kinds of stuff & things.

1024_Kibibytes,

This isn’t just stupid. Anyone over 20 remembers that it wasn’t this hot for this long. This requires that they tell themselves that the heat is for some natural reason.

1024_Kibibytes,

True, but we need to get them to acknowledge that okay, it was 102° F one day in 1972. Yesterday and today were the first days in 2 weeks or more where the high was less than 100° F where I live.

It was not this hot for weeks in 1972.

1024_Kibibytes,

There’s a song called “She thinks my tractor’s sexy”. Their algorithm must believe you’d be more likely to get a date after buying the tractor.

1024_Kibibytes,

It’s also an example of calculus because the amount of dust approaches zero, but is never quite zero

One of 2023's most extreme heat waves is happening in the middle of winter (phys.org)

Temperatures in parts of Chile and northern Argentina have soared to 10°C–20°C above average over the last few days. Towns in the Andes mountains have reached 38°C or more, while Argentina's capital, Buenos Aires, saw temperatures above 30°C—breaking its previous August record by more than 5°C. Temperatures peaked at...

1024_Kibibytes,

BTW what does boost mean?

I believe boost is similar to upvote on Kbin. I’m not sure what the difference between boost and upvote is.

1024_Kibibytes,

Thank you for the clarification!

1024_Kibibytes,

if you’re going to do it on public property, do it at the site we’ve set up for this purpose

From what I’ve seen when this was first posted on Lemmy, “the site we’ve set up for this purpose” was the former police headquarters. A lot of people, especially not rich people living unhoused, might not want to go onto police property, especially in a city like Houston.

1024_Kibibytes,

Stopping people from using air conditioners should increase how much water they drink, although possible not increase any break time, since they’ll sweat a lot of the water out. Turning off air conditioners could be really beneficial to the soft drink, and by extension, healthcare industries.

1024_Kibibytes,

$250? Maybe if it was a family in the poor part of Los Angeles that had committed the offense. NBC Universal makes $250 in less than a minute I think.

1024_Kibibytes,

Correct! Regulators are going to vote to do whatever benefits the oil companies, because the heads of the companies have the money and don’t care about their fellow humans or the planet.

1024_Kibibytes,

I’m on lemm.ee. I think I’ve seen 1 nsfw post. Under configuration there’s a checkbox to not see nsfw content. I checked my alt account. The same checkbox is on lemmy.world

1024_Kibibytes,

That sounds more like Gentoo. With Arch, you at least get the foundation with plumbing and electrical run to the site.
