  • No, it's not.

    Someone who didn't own or had a penchant for guns in the first place wouldn't SUDDENLY get all crazy about guns as you're suggesting. It's simply not a thing.

    Whatever your crazy insecurities are about this, it's not about the OP who is simply asking about being restrained in a way. Not because they are prone to it, but because they don't know what's going to happen.

    You're just some insecure assholes making this about you. Fuck off.

  • Yep. That's what dementia is like.

    OP has been consumed and understands this, and is asking about this because they are wondering if they might fall into a state and end up doing something they would normally not do. It's a good question to ask.

  • Okay, but again, you're missing the entire point of the conversation.

    This is a person worried about losing their rational mind.

    You're trying to describe rationality.

    That's not how memory loss works. At. All.

    You're making this about YOU, and it has nothing to do with you. Only the person who asked the question.

  • There are segments of the population that FEEL like it's a god given right to have guns.

    People with dementia revert back to a specific mind state that doesn't register there is an issue, hence this person's question.

    Somebody with Alzheimer's or any stage of Dementia may just walk down the street and buy a gun. Which is my real question.

    Does this person FEEL like they SHOULD own a gun? If it's something they would normally not think about, it's unlikely that they would-at any stage of memory loss-go and get a gun.

    These diseases don't completely change your personality and suddenly make you a different creature of habit, they just revert you back to certain spaces where your neural paths make sense and operate on that.

  • Completely missing the point.

  • Honest question though: do you think you SHOULD own a gun?

  • You generally keep OS and storage separate for functionality, not necessarily because one is more safe than the other these days with more advanced journaling filesystems that can self-heal and keep things pretty safe and sound.

    The main drawbacks to having them combined is all surrounding flexibility. If one fucks up, everything is fucked up. You won't be able to perform rescue operations on either without impacting both at the same, you can't change the layout of one without affecting both...etc.

    Performance is obviously another one, but if you're not running critical operations for a business or whatever, it probably doesn't matter.

  • The same reason your house isn't a pure "air" environment.

    Carbon Dioxide is heavier than all the components that make up the air you breathe. In a greenhouse they have fans that move air around, because stagnant air would generally be bad for both plants and humans. You'll notice a gap in all greenhouse environments to the ground.

    CO2 gets pulled in, but eventually pushed out because of its weight, but enters in from the ambient atmosphere being injected by the fans.

  • It might work, but I absolutely wouldn't trust it or give it permissions to domain a browser session.

    It's essentially proxying your requests between yourself and God knows where to bypass Imgur's GeoIP location blocking to comply with the UK laws.

    Just use a well known VPN instead. Much safer. I think Proton and Mullvad both have free tiers for stuff like this, and you're not sending your traffic to some random person who made this extension and can do whatever with the permissions you'd have to give it.

  • Yep, posting stupid comments on Lemmy is right up there with the greats who also wrote amazing and topical songs in their time and were well-regarded for it.

  • WE GOT OURSELVES A POET HERE, GUYS!!! THEY CAN DO THE SAME EXACT THING JUST AS WELL, SO NOTHING TO SEE HERE OR ANYTHING:

    Sorry, go ahead and wow us because it's so predictable and easily done as you just said...

  • HOLE-YYYY SHIIIIIET! The same guy who just started putting out videos of him playing VERY well crafted songs with relevant lyrics just a year ago put out FOUR RECORDS AND IS NOMINATED FOR FOUR GRAMMYS?!?!?!

    Serious fucking congrats to you, Jesse. Doing the Lord's work and killing it. Amazing song choice for Colbert.

  • Nov 4th elections.

  • You never mentioned you were trying to mount live files or your home directory...that's an entirely different thing.

    Yes, it does matter.

  • Thanks, I hate it

  • Still pretty rapey vibes

  • What in the actual fuck is this? This looks like a rape scene from a movie.

  • Just make it easy on yourself: start with using a Fedora LiveUSB just to try out the different desktops.

    Gnome is more like MacOS KDE is more like Windows

    I'd just try those out first until you're more familiar with things. All distros are pretty much the same as far as features go under the hood, and you won't see a massive gaming difference on any of them.

    Sticking with AMD hardware is the right move if you're gaming. Steer clear of unbranded machines you can't easily check compatibility on as you may end up with unknown hardware without proper driver compatibility. Some top gaming brands that make an effort to be Linux compatible:

    • MSI
    • Framework
    • System76
    • Dell (only the enterprise stuff)

    You'll probably only find good deals on the MSI stuff in the upcoming sales, but maybe the Framework refurbished store online will have some desktops. System76 rarely has sales, and are a bit overpriced in IMO.

    If you build your own, just stick with MSI and AMD. You can probably build a solid gaming rig for $750-ish.
