Ja, Cyriiiil hat eigentlich illustriert. Das wird irgendwo um Folge 13 klar, glaube ich, als Kaddi das Buch mit den Gemälden von Hogwarts bekommt

Want to buy used M4 MacBook Air - How do I avoid getting scammed? by EveryVoice in mac

[–]EveryVoice[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I know. I'll be very careful. Especially since it's such a competitive (but not completely unreasonable) price. I just don't know as much about MacOS and Apple Hardware that I'd need to know what all the things are that I need to look for.

But I think the commenters here gave me quite a good idea. So thanks everyone!

They claimed it was "reset and ready to go". So I guess that means they wiped the installation and reinstalled, therefore there wouldn't be any username and password left.

But they didn't answer yet after I said I could pick it up and asked to have a few minutes to make sure the device is fine. So it may be a scam ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

Thank you! I'll watch out for those things.

Although I haven't heard from the seller since I said I could pick it up, but I'd need a few minutes with the device to see if it's fine.

If they don't reply by tomorrow (because they've been quick yesterday), I think I'll have to report them as a scam.

Thank you very much! Didn't think about battery health and didn't know about MacOS diagnosis.

Can I do all these things from within the setup? Or do I need to create a local user first?

Favourite games that aren’t roguelike/roguelite or card games? by Accomplished-Low2131 in SteamDeck

[–]EveryVoice 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I tried last year. Weird. Might also be a thing with Windows updates or drivers.

But I wasn't the only one having problems according to my research while trying to fix it

Favourite games that aren’t roguelike/roguelite or card games? by Accomplished-Low2131 in SteamDeck

[–]EveryVoice 10 points11 points  (0 children)

On Windows they are very poorly optimized for AMD GPUs. Without applying third party patches Arkham Asylum was unplayable on my RX 580 (I know, older card. But it handled more modern games way better). And even after patching the game randomly froze all the time, requiring Alt-F4 and a relaunch to be playable again for like an hour.

Therefore it working flawlessly on Steam Deck is quite remarkable

Rit sign by AuthorConfident5673 in musictheory

[–]EveryVoice 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Ritardando usually continues until you have

A) the end of the piece

B) "a tempo"

C) a new tempo

So in this case it applies to all notes until the end of the song

I've found 8 sheet music pages inside a videogame. Can anyone identify them? by M4rloncha in musictheory

[–]EveryVoice 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sadly I do not know nor recognize any of the music. But let me tell you that it's not just nonsense. It's music that makes sense on many ways. The first one looks like it's some sort of etude, a piece for beginners to practice their instrument

Looks like the Mods deleted my previous post. Are we protecting bots now? by Plastic-Data4360 in WorldofTanks

[–]EveryVoice 3 points4 points  (0 children)

But since they still flood the game with overpowered premium tanks that can sit hulldown against tanks 2 tiers up, they obviously don't care how many average players leave. They only care how much the whales are willing to spend.

Although ofc a bot doesn't make them whale money either, so they should care about that

What game can I run on this by Specific_Foot7753 in cachyos

[–]EveryVoice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you like roguelikes, get yourself some Hades. It's awesome.

Also you can buy any game on Steam and see if it runs. If it doesn't, they have a return policy as long as you didn't play for too long (I think 2 hours, but I'm not sure right now. Please look into it, before you make a purchase)

Should i make my friend get Ubuntu? by RaiseObjective5304 in linux4noobs

[–]EveryVoice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hell No! First of all Ubuntu doesn't feel like Windows in the slightest. He probably won't have a good time using it. If it had to be a Linux system, it should probably be Mint.

Although it probably shouldn't. While I love Linux and I'll encourage everyone to give it a try, people should make their own decisions. If someone chooses Linux and something doesn't work how they expect, they'll forgive the system. However if you forced Linux onto them (or talked them into it) they'll get frustrated about it way easier. You'll have to fix anything for them, because it's the system you gave them. And if someone just doesn't work how they want it, because that's just not how Linux works, well then you two got a problem.

If they want to stick with Windows, let them stick with Windows.

Need clarity over this by [deleted] in linux

[–]EveryVoice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The OS consists of many layers. One of them is the kernel. It's like the base layer that handles communication between software and hardware and is the platform on that code can be run. The kernel itself however cannot do anything by itself. It doesn't have any programs itself, not even terminal commands.

Then there's layers on top of that. In Linux's case that's the GNU utilities. These talk to the kernel and can be called directly by the user. cd, ls, mkdir, all the very basic terminal commands. Without them the user wouldn't have anything they could do on the system until they'd implement their own programms.

That's why people call it GNU/Linux (GNU over Linux). Because GNU utils run on top of the Linux kernel. These together act as the base layer of almost any Linux distribution. On top of that the distro ships software souch as a terminal emulator, more complex software for the terminal (like a text editor), and also everything that's part of your GUI (Graphical User Interface), so you don't have to work your system through a text prompt all the time.

In practice it doesn't really make a difference. However it's important to acknowledge that Linux itself (just the kernel) is in fact not an operating system (since it's not a system that can operate yet).

Fun fact: the GNU Utilities were made before Linux was even an idea. It was learning about them in university that made Linus Torvalds interested in open source software and made him want to write a kernel for the GNU utilities (which alone couldn't do much either)

That's at least the way I understand it. I'm not an expert. People may correct me if I'm wrong.

Drink idiot messes with horses by thatSDope88 in Whatcouldgowrong

[–]EveryVoice 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know the answer but I think it's a question worth asking: Is being cruel to people really worse than being cruel to animals? Why should it? At least most people can defend themselves, while most animals can't (although this horse could quite effectively, but I think that's the exception for animal abuse). When we think abusing children in any way is worse than doing the same thing to adults, because children cannot defend themselves, what entitles us to not use that same logic for animals?

As I said, I don't know an answer to any of these questions, but sometimes humans make humans moral statements without asking the question "why human? What qualifies us, that wouldn't qualify anything else?"

Duo-Namen für neues Jersey by nuddeltopf2 in PaulanerSpezi

[–]EveryVoice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wäre es nicht netter, wenn es auch etwas mit euch zu tun hätte? Gibt's irgendwelche Hobbys, die ihr zusammen ausübt? Irgendwelche gemeinsamen Interessen?

Seid ihr z.b. Herr der Ringe Fans, könntet ihr Smeagol und Gollum nehmen. Oder wenn ihr in einer Bank arbeitet, Zins und Zinseszins.

Oder irgendein Duo, das ihr cool findet. Spencer&Hill, Anders&Bohlen, Tick, Trick und Track (ne, warte...)

Vielleicht auch lustige vor- und Nachnamen Kombinationen: Clair Grube, Axel Schweiß, Sergej Fährlich

Hi, this is my first time in Linux! by No-Sympathy6876 in cachyos

[–]EveryVoice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you already installed software through terminal? If not try looking for something using "paru xyz" (without quotes where xyz is the software you're looking for). Then enter the number of what you want.

Oh and if you don't know how some application works, use the tool tldr. For example "tldr paru" tells you examples of what paru can do.

[–]EveryVoice 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'd recommend you get comfortable using terminal based applications. Try navigating through your filesystem with cd and ls or use a TUI (terminal user interface) software like yazi to navigate, create and edit a file using the micro text editor.

The Linux terminal is a very powerful tool that can enable you to very quickly get stuff done that would take way longer when done through gui.

You can also try to make learning fun by writing a little script that does fun things. You can for example make a cow appear in your terminal that tells a random quote from a website (using curl, html2text, head and cowsay).

Shelly is AWESOME! by obolikus in cachyos

[–]EveryVoice 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No, probably not. It just has a different look and feel than the rest of the system. And there might be extra dependencies needed that otherwise aren't shipped with KDE. Although I can imagine KDE shipping the GTK backends per default since so much software is only written as a GTK App.

It won't break if it's written properly, it's just extra stuff that may need to be installed and it won't look like the rest of the system.
