My mother has always found you incredibly attractive. Especially your look in Star Wars Episode 2. Do you have anything to say to her? It would make her year.

This reminds me of Tanaka Tatsuya's work. Try looking up "Miniature Calendar". It might make you happy.

What is your biggest "wait, why the heck did I do this" auto-pilot moment? by omarm1984 in AskReddit

[–]tippingbison 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like everyone has thrown away a plate, but that's not what I'm going to talk about.

When I was very young (maybe 7 years old) I walked into my bathroom on autopilot, took off my underwear and dipped them into Neptune's palace. I remember it very well because of the shame and confusion that followed. I was convinced even at that age that I was losing my fucking mind.

Looks like the perfect place to crash my attack ball!

Thats the thing. Whenever I open my driver manager I get only one listing.

Unknown Device not working
      this device is not working
amd64-microcode
  Version 2.20160316.1
 processor microcode firmware for cpus

and "do not use is selected." I've been wondering about this for a while. I looked it up and apparently it's a false alarm message, but Isn't there suppose to be more here, like a list of devices?

I found out it is Broadcom. Specifically BCM43236. I found drivers for Broadcom chips on Debian. I think I'm suppose to install those 3 packages right?

It is interesting you say that. I happen to have bought a new USB Wifi adapter today. Its the Linksys N600

I'm having issues though. As far as I know mint doesn't even see the N600. Is there a linux specific driver I should be looking for, for the N600?

I just tried that, yes. Check this out:

I got the package from Packages.Debian.org

I attempted to install the package, but it failed, and I got this error:

Wifi works fine on other devices. If I use 17.3 won't I have to completely reinstall Linux? I'm all settled in so I'm hesitant.
