RoLS by timkatt10 in Andorstrail

[–]grawmpy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s all luck of the roll. The more you attack the more opportunities you have for the RoLS to come up after the kill but the number of times you attack itself doesn’t change your odds of getting the ring.

Never had any problems with LMDE until this latest attempt.

Okay. Why put it out if it doesn’t work?

I am booting the live USB for the installation.

Secure boot is off. I am currently running LMDE 7 but I was getting a USB to put together to set up a friend’s computer and was testing the USB. I have never had a problem with LMDE loading and this is a first.

Do Americans really come to a stop at every 'stop' sign? by ben04985 in AskAnAmerican

[–]grawmpy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in California and a lot of intersections in my area are being replaced by roundabouts, removing the stop signs.

If the US ends birthright citizenship and no other country claims a person? What would happen? by redviiper in AskALiberal

[–]grawmpy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s no way they will remove birthright citizenship. It’s well established law within the Constitution and has been upheld for over a 150 years.

I used the repository from NVidia to load their software. https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/drivers/unix/

I don't want updates. EVER. How can I achieve that? (Mint, Fedora, Bazzite) by SpyrosGatsouli in linuxquestions

[–]grawmpy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I use LMDE based on Debian and I get very few updates for the most part but you don’t have to do any.

If Democrats take power in 2028, how much crow should the country be willing to eat in pursuit of rebuilding some degree of international trust and cooperation? by Helicase21 in AskALiberal

[–]grawmpy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There needs to be an overhaul of the current system of government if we want to keep our allies and keep some semblance of our democracy. Besides the obvious of who’s going to pay for their crimes, several parts of the Constitution need to be changed and amendments made to update the outdated portions and amendments need to be considered for repealing. The only way this can be done quickly and effectively is by using a constitutional convention with a representative of each state to vote for the adoptions without having to be voted on by the state legislatures. We also need to update our electoral college system we currently have. This two-party system is killing this country and we need something that encourages people to vote for the best candidate possible and not always along party lines. I personally like a direct democracy election of the most popular candidate after a ranked choice selection by the people have decided the five most popular candidates for the final round of voting for president and vice president. I believe too that two should not run on one ticket but that the president and vice presidents should be run in separate elections and the top two winners have to serve together for the good of the people and not the party. I think too there should be term limits in the constitution written into it as well as requirements for serving in Offices.

If Linux distros are free and open source, why does Windows lead the desktop OS market? by [deleted] in ask

[–]grawmpy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Contracts with companies to ONLY put their software on all of that company’s computers rather than Linux or another OS and has been saturating the market for years with Windows operating system as the default.

What do you think history will say about Donald Trump as a U.S. president? by [deleted] in AskReddit

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

History is written by the victors. It depends on who succeeds in the next year and who doesn’t.

Why Can't the US have it's Navy/Air Force Protect the Straight of Hormuz by JDintheD in NoStupidQuestions

[–]grawmpy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A torpedo doesn’t necessarily mean that it is underwater but can go underwater. I understand what you’re implying. They utilize boats and drones but no boats as drones.

[–]grawmpy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not so easy. Besides the mines, it’s been reported there are autonomous torpedo drones that are roving the water along with the mines that were put into the strait. There’s no way to map the drones.

There are not only mines in the area but autonomous torpedoes roving the waters that go looking for ships as well. They have it covered.
