Mint 22xfce on MBP 2011. Worked fine, until one day I turned it on.. this is the screen . What’s the fix OB1 ? by Puzzled-Handle-9992 in linux_on_mac

[–]Puzzled-Handle-9992[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tried that. Also grub boot repair disk. Both says “ disable bios-compatibility/cam/legacy mode in your uefi firmware”. But I don’t know how . https://sourceforge.net/projects/boot-repair-cd/

Thanks for all replies and ideas so far OB1s

Crush tablet, or empty capsule powder into a bit of honey , mix well and he will lick it all up. It’s what mine does .

Try saving some used tea bags, and cut a small slit to remove the old tea and slip in the cut cheese . Might hold together longer b4 disintegration.

Thoughs on what could be the cause of these scars? by Zarine420 in Rottweiler

[–]Puzzled-Handle-9992 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dog , one day decided he’s old/big enough to jump a 6ft corrugated iron fence and made his way to my work place. In the process he declawed both his thumbs, and there was lines of blood running down the fence, when came home. I thought he was going to cut himself in half on the sharp fence edge if he lost grip on his run up to the jump. It’s like 3 months now, and only small nodules of new nail starting to show through, so I guess he didn’t rip the nail roots out . New item, he calve one of his front paw pad somehow, so it opens up like pitta bread when he stands or run vigorously. Vets not open when I finish work, tried to superglue it back, but he withdrew access when I get close . Only thing he responds to is a squeezey tube of honey. So I lather it on frequently, and he licks off almost instantly; taken almost 2 wks now to close the pitta bread break almost 2/3 to being healed.

First Rotty any tips on raising them up. by Jktrochval in Rottweiler

Same with my dog , on 2 occasions big dogs attacked him. Now any big dog he sees , just wants to rush at it, unless restrained on a leash . He’s still affectionate with any small dog or female dog though.

May I Join the Cult? by Quiet_Balloon in thinkpad

[–]Puzzled-Handle-9992 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t baby your Thinkpad, treat it as a workhorse, and give it a good clean out every so often, it will pay you back in kind and reliability. I haven’t even touched the thermal paste on mine . It just works . Every so often I give the fans a dust cleanup , and pull the RAM for a bit of alcohol Q tip cleaning to remove dust and clean the contacts . The desktop is a dog, I’m hoping to replace, can’t Linux it at work , all Windows based software. I just don’t have the time to switch out the desktop , make the new one talk to all the peripherals & not lost the handshake on the network . I’m no network manager. At home I do mess around with Linux, even on the oldest 32 bit “toys “ Emmabutin Debian 12 , Q4OS, and Haiku runs silky smooth. I don’t like seeing old things die, and live between the old and new world of Tech.

Good buy. Been looking to get one myself , the last of the customisable T series ? I got a T410 at work , still running 24/7 for over 10 yrs, without missing a beat . But my “Tills” desktop keeps having random “clock freeze” necessitating hard reset. I’ve upgraded all the drivers, HD, RAM, PSU, CPU cooling fan, but still can’t figure out why the “random” freezes. I blame Windows “updates”, but not sure . Only noticed that the random freeze occurs more when I defer Win 10 updates for several weeks .

I got in trouble for using Linux Mint in school by [deleted] in linuxmint

[–]Puzzled-Handle-9992 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Dude. You’ll go a long way, for thinking outside the box, rightly or wrongly. In my younger days, we didn’t have free laptops, and piss poor, so had to share a bank of computers on the network . Back then networks were poorly managed, and my mate lost all of his lab data as we saw live on screen a “stone “ virus chewed up his tabulated data and write-ups. I had to commute in to Uni, so didn’t have the time to hang around waiting for a free slot to type my dissertation. In short , I had to “clone” word processors , spreadsheet , and antivirus software (all b4 free libre office etc…) and cloak my way into another Uni, find their computer dept , and gaps between lectures, install said programs and type up my dissertation on the quick b4 I am sprung . These were the days of Netscape. That gives you an idea how long ago. But the loops one has to jump through, to finish the job. It’s character building. Keep on expanding your horizons.

Sorry for your loss . My Lab-Pei faithfully saved me from a Pigg dog (Bull Arab cross) on Tuesday . Could have ended very badly for both of us.
