Jayb151,

In all honesty, I much prefer the original film with Sting. This looks fucking awesome though.

Jayb151,

If I were to guess, most likely Japanese cakes or Korean cakes. The Korean market near me has what they call a French bistro inside the food court. It’s got amazingly fluffy, spongey cakes that are just lightly sweet. Most of the actually sweetness seems to come from the fruit on top. And actual whipped cream instead of our Western sugar paste cream, ew.

Does skiff work?

I need a low budget laptop

I want to create a setup where I have a powerfull PC at home, and a lightweight economic laptop to carry around like at school to take notes or watch media on the go. I’d like to spend around 250 euro, and for the os linux is ok. Thanks for the help. P.S. sry if the sub doesn’t fit but I didn’t know where to post this...

Jayb151,

So much this. Go to eBay or if your country has an equivalent and search for business class laptops. Dell, HP, Lenovo, whatever you like. Business class laptops are way easier to work on and can usually be upgraded a bit easier. And like this post said, you can usually find 3-4 year old laptops in good condition and with decent specs.

I just got one for my daughter so we can play Valheim together.

Jayb151,

I also want to push Microsoft learn. I’m a 30 something year old who is 2 years into an IT career. It’s been awesome so far. I think the Microsoft route is best bang for your buck. Basically self guided learning and you pay for the test. At my job specifically, certs are what’s really going to make you stand out.

Test 17

Jayb151,

Actually, I’m still rocking my Mi Band 2, great purchase

Jayb151,

It’s just difficult to install with a gui

Jayb151, (edited )

If fire fox has profiles like brave, I’d switch instantly. I need profiles to separate all my different accounts

Edit: I just wanted to say thanks to those who replied to my comment, it looks like I’ve gotten a couple of really good ideas for implementing profiles within Firefox. I’ll be exploring these thanks much!

Jayb151,

Came here to say Valheim. It’s a great game that I’ve sunk hundreds of hours into. And if you go to their discord you can find a ton of people also looking to make friends.

Jayb151,

What if that’s not an option due to the age of your phone?

Jayb151,

I’ll say this, I never used edge before, but it’s comparable with a bunch of my work sites so I was kind of forced into using it. It’s actually pretty great. Better overall than stock chrome, though I prefer brave or Firefox for non work related stuff.

Once I started using Edge, I was surprised by how well it worked.

What are some FOSS programs that you think are a far better user experience than their counterparts? (sh.itjust.works)

I used Plex for my home media for almost a year, then it stopped playing nice for reasons I gave up on diagnosing. While looking at alternatives, I found Jellyfin which is much more responsive, IMO, and the UI is much nicer as well....

Jayb151,

Man, I’ve been running Plex for about a decade without a ton of issues. I tried jellyfin, and I can’t get video to play anywhere that’s not the PC that’s running it. What am I doing wrong?

Jayb151,

While I agree with the spirit of your argument, a 5 or 6 year old is not going to be able to enter a classroom without making a disturbance. And students entering late make it more difficult for the teacher.

Also, if this is an issue so much that the school has to put our a statement, it’s probably not just a one time thing, it’s probably the continued abuse of the existing system to the detriment of those following said system.

Jayb151,

Amazing. Just be sure not to aim for the bombs

Change my Mind! - I like the linux,but some things keeps me staying on Windows.

Recently, I switched from Windows to Linux, tried many distros, and ended up with the Ubuntu rolling-release. Things went well for some days, but I started facing some issues like printer issues, gaming performance issues, and overall Ubuntu performance issues. So, I switched to where it all started, which is Windows 10. Now...

Jayb151,

I’ve been running endeavour on a little tablet PC with kde. It’s been pretty great overall, but I’ve also gotten interested in Manjaro. Thoughts on how they compare? I read one article that was like, whatever you like better!

Jayb151,

That’s all great info, thanks for taking the time. This is my first go with Arch based. I work with Windows for a living and have used Debian based for years.

Endeavor has had a little bit of a learning curve, but sounds like I’ll be sticking with it.

I know they say they are a terminal based os, but any tips on some equivalent to a software center, or at least where I can find compatable apps?

Thanks for what you’ve already taken the time to write!

Jayb151,

I’ve only gone back to Reddit when Google lead me there. Otherwise, I’m here.

Jayb151,

I felt the same, so I built one for around 5-600usd. If you have a bike, you can turn it into an e bike.

Jayb151,

Does it have a function to import your current subscriptions?

Jayb151,

It’s a wild statement to insinuate that your family voting for Trump somehow makes them bad people. Likewise, Peterson has some decent advice that I think should not fully be written off due to his personal life.

I haven’t really seen anyone in this thread disqualify his argument based on merits and only using their own feelings to say he’s wrong.

In all honesty, I don’t have a horse in this race, but I don’t think Peterson is a terrible as everyone seems to think. Maybe I’m crazy

Jayb151,

I mean, just voting for Trump doesn’t objectively make you a bad person… That’s the definition of being subjective. Also, I’m confident in my intelligence, please don’t make lemmy the dumpster fire that is Reddit.

I’m not saying that Trump is a good person, again this is a discussion of Peterson, but one could argue that aside from Trump’s character he wasn’t the worst president the US has had.

Jayb151,

36 & US Midwest based, have only bought stick shifts my whole life. My wife also had only ever driven stick.

Jayb151,

He only desired the strength to defend his people.

Shame

Jayb151,

Ya, profiles is what’s going to stop me from switching. I have like 7 different profiles

Jayb151,

Desktop. Tablet. Garage. Pretty straightforward at my place lol

Jayb151,

That’s what I was thinking too. Like, where can I get a nice, sturdy couch for under $800 USD?

Jayb151,

Hey, you know the keyboard shortcut for endeavor that does the same thing as the Win+X for Windows? That’s always how I shut down our restart my windows PC. I installed endeavor on my Lenovo duet 3 that came preinstalled with win 11 and that is one of the few things I’m missing. Snip with shift+win+s, and the clipboard history would be the others.

I’m debating if I want to dual boot endeavor on my main PC, but I’m not sure about it because my nvme is pretty small. I also networked my kids computer and my garage computer for file shares and I’m not quite sure how well using those windows PCs to get files off a Linux system would work. Thoughts?

Jayb151,

Hmm… That’s a good answer, thanks for taking the time! I currently have about 130gb free on my boot drive, and I keep all my data on a separate 4tb drive. Dual booting on the same nvme could possibly be an issue though.

Thanks much!

Jayb151,

I’m running endeavour os on a Lenovo duet 3. It’s fully functional including the gyroscope, which is super damn amazing. Windows basically wouldn’t run, but I feel like a super user when in using endeavor on it. It’s so good.

Jayb151,

I mean, you’re not considering people who would want to have children later.

Jayb151,

I actually wanted to see how Graphene works so I was going to install it on my old pixel 3a, but it’s no longer maintained. You know where I can get the last release images for the 3a?

Jayb151,

I’ll only mention it because I haven’t seen it yet, I just installed endeavor os and it’s been pretty Great

Jayb151,

To speak to your points, I started with about 1 year ago in a new career in IT. We initially were coming in one day a week and this has moved to two days.

First, when we moved to two days, I have it about 6 weeks, then started crunching numbers. By the sole metric of closing tickets… My team as a whole is more productive in the office. I didn’t break down exactly who was more of less productive, but I have my ideas. I’m willing to bet that I work better at home, but it’s a moot point as the team is better on site.

As far as learning new skills, even at one day a week, I’ve caught up to the rest of my team and have surpassed them technically. Again, it’s IT and I’ve always had a strong interest, whereas I see some of the team probably view it as “just work” I’m actually enjoying the work. Again, it’s a second career so maybe maturity is in play here too, but even the younger guys who were hired after me are growing very quickly.

You’re absolutely right about networking. I felt so isolated when I started. It wasn’t until I learned a few people a few steps above where I was that I learned who is a good resource, and who I can trust. Once I got my head around that, I think people actually see the work in doing and redirect me for it. If I were 100% wfh I don’t think I would be having as good a time.

Just my experience

Jayb151,

I have no paper credentials, but I was a licensed educator, so at least it shows I can get credentials if I worked at it.

I started at a local community college party time, then transferred to my current role. Both bosses are the type like, “I can teach anyone IT, but it’s hard to teach soft skills.” Turns out they can’t really teach IT either and I’m left to getting knowledge from my team and outside sources.

I am taking some azure fundamentals courses right now though, so I’m going that legit certs will make me more hireable

Jayb151,

I do get asked when I vote, which part I belong to. I just flip flop every time to keep them on their toes

Jayb151,

Honestly, I installed it on my windows PC recently, and I found it really clunky. And it sounds like there’s no dark mode?

I do IT for a living, and for as big of a bitch Office is, it does work pretty damn good… When it’s working. I felt like I went back in time a decade when I was working with Calc.

I’m not trying to fight, but I’m genuinely curious, do you only use Writer? Have you worked with Word lately to compare how they’ve changed? Thanks

Jayb151,

Holy shit, I installed it on my Lenovo tablet laptop, and everything works out the box… Even the gyroscope! I couldn’t believe it. It’s the first arch based I’ve tried and I think I’m hooked.

To note, I think I tried like 8 other distros before finding endeavor.

Jayb151,

I’ve used ai in general a few years ago as a companion till for writing seo optimized articles. It was ok at that time, and would do maybe 30% of the work I needed, but I would still have to go back in and make major edits or it would only pop out a sentence at a time so I would be contently prompting it.

My wife is a full time writer for a company and she uses it all the time to create emails and speeches. She says the leaks and bounds in actual usability is pretty insane. Like, one prompt can give her an entire speech.

Jayb151,

I agree with this 100%. I’ve actually found that one distro can work out the box with my hardware, and another distro is impossible to use. I think it’s important to try out a few and see what appeals to you. Example, elementary os is pretty nice, but it almost seems vacant because it tries to mimic Mac. Zorin os is also really nice, but there’s something about it that just feels off. I recently installed endeavor os on a tablet PC, and everything is working out the box. I can’t believe how easy it was, and I’ve been using Linux on and off since 2004.

Jayb151,

I work for an Irish company and I believe 2 months is the norm. That said, I’m in the US and don’t have to follow those rules.

Jayb151,

I recently got into home roasting and it’s been awesome. I have a bio light that runs on wood, and I just knocked down a couple trees on my property, so infinite free heat source that I can use outdoors. I also prefer a bit of an uneven roast as well cause it gives you a bit of a black and tan flavor.

Jayb151,

Ya, I got hit with a $100 fee because I didn’t replace the specialty lightbulb above the stove that burnt out 4 years ago.

Jayb151,

I can’t check right now, but I know for certain I had at least 13 years

Jayb151,

$74usd/month for 100mbps up and down with a static ip

Jayb151,

I scanned the comments way too long to find this. I’m still sporting my MI fit 2 that’s like…8 years old or something. I’m going to have to look at gadget bridge though, first time in hearing about it. Thanks!
