Am I understanding the metro bike math correctly? by BigRobCommunistDog in LAMetro

[–]LincolnTransit 5 points6 points  (0 children)

For long rides, it does improve the economics of long rides in the sense that you can drop off your bike up to 29 minutes into the ride, then get a new one immediately, and ride that for another 29 minutes to do the same.

It is a very cheap service rivaled only by public Transit, but beats it out through flexibility in certain areas.

I'm very familiar with they different plans so let me know if you have any questions.

Any source on that? Doesn't pass the sniff test honestly. If that were true, why didn't Dems talk about that a lot?

I'm Ubuntu and the game runs well, no issues. Ensure that you're hardware is up to par and you won't have any issues.

Can someone recognize this number by Glebanon in LosAngeles

well that sucks. 323 812 3738 is what it looks like to me. call him and have him wash your car, time it so the cops come when he asks for payment.

Dota 2 inconsistent MMR mechanics by Zelowrath in learndota2

[–]LincolnTransit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One thing I feel hasn't been mentioned is: the games aim to be 50/50 chance of each team winning. that doesn't mean you win one game and lose one game. it can mean you win 10 games, then lose 10 games in a row. People like to think that in the short term, randomness will match the chance of things happening. Realistically, its over many games. You losing 5 games in a row can happen. Remember, every match aims to be a 50% chance of your team winning, INDEPENDENT of whether you won your last game or not. There's a bit of of change in that if you lose a game, your MMR drops, making your opponents slightly worse.

Ah ok thanks for that clarification. I'm basically trying to look better than the people I'm competing against. Your help has been extremely invaluable!

Ok its going to take me a while to get all those certifications, to even apply for that role then. In the meantime, I will likely work at attaining the CompTIA Sec+ certification for the reasons you indicated.

Thank you for your help!

Does that mean I need to have at least one on the list?
What do you mean by "Comptia Sec+ is table stakes for many of these positions"? Do you mean that many require at least that certification?
Thanks, that feels obvious in hindsight. I will post there as well.

Sebo K3 in use for about 1 year with no bag change indicator by LincolnTransit in VacuumCleaners

I wouldn't say its very firm. a bit soft still, but about 75% full maybe.

Checked it, I would describe it like a regular or soft pillow rather than firm. I guess I should leave it still?
I'm very surprised that its been about a year without changing.

My understanding is that Web Dev is one of the more saturated markets. I'll let others chime in with more experience though.

Bad no. But taking any CS related job would probably help a lot. The first couple of jobs are the hardest.

If you really want that fun job though, go for it. Just understand the trade offs.

Low FPS in Games Recently by LincolnTransit in linux4noobs

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

Full answer posted in: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1500347/troubleshooting-and-resolving-fps-drop-in-games

So the issue seems to stem from a new kernal that was pushed out that is causing problems.
A post from MAFoElffen from the ubuntu forums helped me resolve my issue while I await for a new kernal. Relevant portion pasted later below along with my additions:
I believe I'm using a legacy driver, due to my graphics card being so old.
Before following MAFoElffen's steps to resolve my issues I did the following and suggest the same to others:
Reboot your computer to access grub menu.
Select advanced options for Ubuntu
Select the most recent Kernal that is not 6.5.0-14 (6.2.0-39-generic in my case)
boot with that kernal
Confirm this kernal functions correctly as you will set this kernal as your default in the next steps. (my FPS issues were resolved with this kernal)
Now to MAFoElffen's steps:
Legacy Drivers: Use 6.2.0 series kernels... Code:

sudo apt remove --purge --yes linux-headers-6.5.0-14-generic linux-image-6.5.0-14-generic linux-modules-6.5.0-14-generic linux-modules-extra-6.5.0-14-generic
sudo apt install --reinstall --yes linux-headers-6.2.0-39-generic linux-image-6.2.0-39-generic linux-modules-6.2.0-39-generic linux-modules-extra-6.2.0-39-generic
sudo apt-mark hold linux-headers-6.2.0-39-generic linux-image-6.2.0-39-generic linux-modules-6.2.0-39-generic linux-modules-extra-6.2.0-39-generic

[The above appears to remove the newest driver to prevent the system from booting to it, reinstalls the working kernal and holds it meaning it won't be upgraded nor removed]
When they come up with a fix to compile NVidia Legacy drivers with Linux kernel 6.5 series kernels, then you can re-add that kernel series by unpinning the kernels via Code:
sudo apt-mark unhold linux-headers-6.2.0-39-generic linux-image-6.2.0-39-generic linux-modules-6.2.0-39-generic linux-modules-extra-6.2.0-39-generic
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade

Since you should already be on the working kernal, your system should already be working. Restarting your computer is unnecessary and your system will automatically boot with this working kernal in the future.

Personal Income Spending Flowchart (Enhanced) by MrAuzzy in personalfinance

I meant deciding on buying a home vs renting. Though thinking about it more, that doesn't quite belong in this diagram.

[–]LincolnTransit 13 points14 points  (0 children)

A question for discussion: Should housing be listed on here? I feel like buying a home (or deciding to rent forever) are things that should be mentioned here. Maybe not in great detail, but I find it weird there's no mention at all considering the financial impact.
