    YSK about kitchen knives

    跳过
  • I use a bred knife to slice cheese off a block every day. Line it up and push down, one hand on handel the other on the spine at the top. It works better than any other knife to slice cheese blocks.

    This post makes it sounds like I am committing a war crime.

  • Yeah, I have not really been liking the direction a lot if headset manufactures are going. I am never going to give meta money if I have a choice.

  • My works used windows only industrial software. I have tried it in wine but there are to many companion apps and the accompanying licensing issues.

  • I palayed half life Alex on the Vive when it came out on popos. That said I tried to play it again about 18month later and it was broken; would launch but not load properly. Beat saber has worked for me very consistently, mods are hard to get going but it's possible.

  • Not sure that's 100% true anymore. It's not uncommon for people to go years without interacting with a windows PC, most will just use their mobile instead. When I say interacting I am not talking about using a self check at a grocery store running an app in kiosk mode, I mean startup, shutdown, update, install apps and use them.

    I friend asked me for a laptop last year and had not used one for 8 years since his previous job. Even then his previous job was as a traidy and he only used it for generating invoices. I am sure their would be an app/service for that now.

    Windows is in decline mainly because desktop and laptops are irrelevant for large swaths of the general population.

    Provided the OS does not get in the way of what people are trying to accomplish (mainly accessing the web browser) it does not matter anymore.

  • Most people normal people now days need a web browser and LibreOffice (or google docs variant). Pair that with Bazzite or other "ready to go" OS that comes pre installed with multimedia codecs, navidia drivers, a mobile like app store, a mobile like DE and it can be that simple.

  • +1 bazzite as well. It comes with waydroid for android apps, its Linux (so WSL covered), it does have a gaming focus, it has various Virtualization tools (toolbox, box-buddy) but you can get other options depending on what you actually want.

    Don't like it you can rebase to one of the other ostree based images from uBlue or fedora with about one command and a reboot.

  • Sorry to hear that. My 1080 works just fine and I use it daily, but that's using the legacy navidia drivers. I assumed the newer cards with the newer driver would be in a better state. What card do you have?

  • Take a deep breath and look for the text that follows "password:" Self defeat is sell fufilling! Think of it as ASCII wheres Wally.

  • Two moons and a dude hangliding? I love AI.

  • I got my CNC router working via wine about 2 years ago. Was very happy when it not only worked but worked well. Thought I was going to need to setup a dedicated windows PC for it but I can just use my workshop/tinkering laptop.

  • People are lazy as fuck. Provided it plays their games they don't give a shit about features updates, patches, bug fixes etc.

    They probably have no ideal what version of windows is even installed on their machine.

  • I've done it. I agree it can be done very easily. But is relying on all new users entering the right question into google and google returning a correct answer for their distro that is not 7 years out of date the best strategy in the long run?

    Any distro that does not offer a option during install or on first boot to just install this stuff with a promt is not new user friendly.

  • I second popos and mint. I love fedora but if he is a gamer you want something that will just work (navida built in or a very easy one click mechanism to get it). If he has to research PPAs and installing rpmfussion it will get all too hard very quickly. Also do some expectation setting before hand, research what games he plays work on linux, better he finds out now rather than after 2 hours of pain or getting band for "hacking" because of proton triggered an anti-cheat thing.

    Edit: I run fedora on all my machines except my gaming rig which is popos. Fedora works too but popos is hassle a free experience.

  • From memory the UK gov is trying to (or has?) pass anti-encription laws targeting the big tech giants GAFAM (google, removed, Facebook, Amazon and Microsoft). I am in Australia so not up to date with this.

    Its hard to tell from the icon pack they are using but I think this might be a screenshot from a degoogle phone? For example I don't see any Facebook or Microsoft specific apps. But I do see a nextcloud app which is an open source self hostable replacement suite for Google's cloud apps.

    Basically the law change won't affect them as they are not using any GAFAM apps/software.

  • Yep, or it gives you a glimpse and then clouds over again

  • This whole series triggered me so hard. They went out of their way to test it under the worst possible conditions.

    • last at night
    • setting a goal with a deadline/time constraints for first run
    • not stopping and reading or thinking, just assuming away
    • copy paste from google frsit thing that looks vagualy right
    • tunnel vission
    • not resources like Emily, ensuring they make big mistakes

    Then they follow up with hypocrisy of this shit, after going on and on about UI not being right or hard to use for the end user.

  • Don't worry they will be back. their brain was downloaded before they left, they are still working out the kinks of training an instantance of chatGPT on the brain data and getting it to run in a Boston dynamics atalis body.
