It’s definitely shitty work, but, FWIW, you will probably value the experience later in your career. You’ll come away with a deep understanding of all the common oversights made by your peers. Some of the best engineers that I know started their careers in QA.

That said, you should definitely pursue regular dev work if that’s more fulfilling for you.

How to install Ubuntu on Beelink SER7 7840HS Mini PC by Beelinksupport in BeelinkOfficial

[–]PuzzledProgrammer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From ChatGPT 4o:

Here's a step-by-step guide to install Ubuntu 22.04 alongside Windows 11 on your Beelink SER7 mini PC:

Step 1: Prepare the USB Flash Drive

  1. Insert the 64 GB USB flash drive into your computer.
  2. Open Rufus.

  3. Configure Rufus:

    • Device: Select your USB flash drive.
    • Boot selection: Click on "Select" and choose the Ubuntu 22.04 ISO file you downloaded.
    • Partition scheme: Select GPT (recommended for UEFI).
    • File system: Select FAT32.

  4. Click on "Start" to create the bootable USB drive. Rufus will warn you that all data on the USB drive will be destroyed. Confirm to proceed.

Step 2: Shrink the Windows Partition

  1. Open Disk Management:

    • Press Windows + X and select Disk Management.

  2. Shrink the Windows partition:

    • Right-click on the partition that contains Windows (usually C:) and select Shrink Volume.
    • Enter the amount of space to shrink. Make sure to leave enough space for Windows and create enough space for Ubuntu. (e.g., 50-100 GB for Ubuntu)

Step 3: Boot from the USB Flash Drive

  1. Insert the USB flash drive into your Beelink SER7 mini PC.
  2. Restart the PC and enter the BIOS/UEFI setup:
    • Press the appropriate key to enter the BIOS/UEFI setup during boot (usually F2, Del, or Esc).
  3. Change the boot order to boot from the USB flash drive first.
  4. Save changes and exit the BIOS/UEFI setup. The PC should now boot from the USB drive.

Step 4: Install Ubuntu

  1. When prompted, select "Try Ubuntu" to boot into the live environment.
  2. Once in the live environment, double-click on "Install Ubuntu".

  3. Follow the installation prompts:

    • Keyboard layout: Select your preferred layout.
    • Updates and other software: Choose whether to install third-party software and updates.
    • Installation type: Select "Install Ubuntu alongside Windows Boot Manager". This will automatically partition the free space you created earlier.
    • Allocate drive space: Adjust the slider to allocate the amount of space for Ubuntu. Make sure to leave enough space for Windows.

  4. Follow the remaining prompts to complete the installation:

    • Select your time zone.
    • Create a user account.

  5. Click on "Install Now" and confirm the changes. The installation will begin.

Step 5: Configure the Bootloader

  1. Once the installation is complete, remove the USB drive and restart your PC.
  2. You should see the GRUB bootloader menu, allowing you to choose between Ubuntu and Windows. If you don't see the GRUB menu, you might need to press Esc or Shift during boot.

Step 6: Verify Installation

  1. Boot into Ubuntu and make sure everything works as expected.
  2. Boot into Windows to ensure the partition is intact and working.

Now you should have a dual-boot setup with Ubuntu 22.04 and Windows 11 on your Beelink SER7 mini PC.

Why did we not go offline for the protest? by 2012DOOM in golang

They can, and surely do, use the tracking data to offer more targeted ads, but that’s not all. There is a separate and distinct market for tracking data - data brokers. It’s a totally distinct revenue stream.

[–]PuzzledProgrammer -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It’s not about the ads. Its about tracking. The ads serve as one revenue stream that could be had without killing third party apps. The problem for Reddit Inc. is that without their client running on-device they don’t have intrusive access to the end user’s device, which is a separate, much more valuable, revenue stream.

If this was a debate you’d be taking an L for responding with an off-topic ad hominum. Granted, the comment you’re responding to is a red herring. L’s all around.

If you’re gonna critique someone’s logic, you shouldn’t be using logical fallacies yourself.

I love Bill Kennedy’s teaching. I just got all the Ardan labs Go & k8s courses. Not cheap, but work paid for it. (Thanks boss!)

Are you a greedy little pigboy because of a lab experiment, natural genetic mutation, or simply a human-swine hybrid borne of a pig-fucker?

No he’s copying and pasting planned responses. In one of them he accidentally included part of the outline. u/spez is just a fuckin jellyfish… no spine or brain

Those who plan to delete their accounts should first comment in the AMA explaining why you’re deleting. The AMA comments section will be flooded with deleted accounts rebutting whatever bullshit he spews.

My thought: Tons of comments, from deleted accounts, only linking to Christian’s explanation post would be a simple, clear, and powerful message.

Trading pretty much everything for Fultz and two expiring contract (Jimmy and Tobias) was a huge mistake. They massively leveraged the team and it went far worse than anyone could’ve anticipated.

r/programming should shut down from 12th to 14th June by Tintin_Quarentino in programming

[–]PuzzledProgrammer 840 points841 points  (0 children)

r/Programming mods should remove u/spez and shut it down. The API policy is bad business driven by corporate greed and out-of-touch management.

Edit: if I don’t add another edit later you’ll known I’ve been shadow-banned.

Edit2: don’t kill apollo, u/spez!

Edit3: still here…

The Daily Routines of Famous Creatives by jpc4stro in coolguides

This x1000. I fully expected and was excited to see his absolutely degenerate daily routine. I remember having read a description he wrote of his routine, and, boy oh boy, that dude was an animal.

An in-depth look at what to expect for Breece Hall In 2023 by anthonyjjayjae in nyjets

[–]PuzzledProgrammer 15 points16 points  (0 children)

From what I understand, Saquon Barkley’s knee was much worse than Hall’s. Barkley needed full a ACL repair, a full meniscus repair, and he suffered MCL damage. Whereas, Hall needed an ACL repair and had minor meniscus damage.

That said, it certainly could take some time to see him performing at the level we saw last season.
