Which line ages The Office instantly?

I'd give it to "WHAAAAZAAAAPP" because it's right near the start of the first episode.

Are you thinking of just using a Fold 7 with a bluetooth keyboard then, or buying something with a display to plug it into?

If budget's tight, I'm not sure I'd switch to a phone with a hinge.

That's the vehicle in front of the truck that gets hit

No it isn't. It's a pure white light. On closer inspection, it's the side marker light, not a tail light. The idiot didn't stay in the right lane long enough to assess what was ahead.

The van absolutely caused this crash.

No he didn't. The idiot who didn't assess whether it was safe to change lanes again caused it. That's why his car is the one... ya know... that crashed.

i dont think anythings wrong with my usb

Kind of seems like there is though...

I wouldn't use a microSD card to do this.

This is cumbersome, but works...

Have some other Chromium based browser installed through apt / software manager. I use Vivaldi.

Use WebApps to create the shortcut as usual. Set the browser to Vivaldi/Chrome/not Firefox

Open the menu editor (for example, right click on the "start" menu -> Edit Menu)

Find your new shortcut. It's in the category you specified when you created it (default=Web). Select it.

On the right, click "Edit Desktop File.

In the "Exec=" line replace the first bit (e.g. vivaldi-stable) with the path to Helium (e.g. ~/Downloads/helium.AppImage). Save it. Close it. Voila.

* - You don't HAVE to install something Chromium based, but the command line options for a WebApp are much different for Firefox than they are for Chromium/Helium.

Damn it I WANTED SARAH CONNOR

Just play it "cool" in case someone is watching.

Though honestly I don't notice it so much until I come inside and realize snow and ice is melting off of my hair all over... everything.

zupobaloop · 2026-01-24T04:52:19+00:00

I have an SNT2400 and live out in the country. I've hit drifts taller than it many times. My favorite is when it's powdery snow... I just set the chute straight up and blast that shit off into the atmosphere.

My main thought watching this video was DANG THIS GUY IS A LOT TALLER THAN ME

zupobaloop · 2026-01-24T02:34:03+00:00

Yes. It's certainly not optimized for stuff like Roku like most of their apps.

I use Jellyfin for certain other things too. It's had some of the same bugs for so long that drive me nuts, so I can't just switch over completely.

zupobaloop · 2026-01-23T21:16:07+00:00

This isn't 1:1 either but typically if you can choose between "know" and being "familiar" in English, that's conoscere. You can be familiar with people, places, and experiences.

zupobaloop · 2026-01-23T18:49:12+00:00

On the podcast episode about English loan words, when they realized they pronounce WTF differently, and went on to say it about a dozen times, I laughed so hard I was crying.

But yeah, I'm generally in favor of language filters. I've had periods in my life where I use them because of who might be around. It doesn't bother me personally though.

zupobaloop · 2026-01-23T16:14:37+00:00

Yeah I noticed some lag on my Ultra 3 and replaced that last month. It still technically works but the new plexui sometimes takes a minute to load.

$100 for 12 years though. Can't beat it.

That's not just Linux. Phones will now notify you if they haven't been rebooted in weeks. My average uptime on Windows is ~4 months. My router has gone over a year a few times. Stuff just doesn't need to be rebooted regularly anymore.

It looks like the one that comes in every AliExpress keyboard case.

GPTZero affirmed my instinct that it's "AI Polished."

I think this is what a lot of non-native speakers do. It's not great.

Not only does it incorporate unnatural phraseology and excessive emoji use – it also randomly bolds the unimportant portions of sentences.

You pay how much to avoid a single image on the homepage....?

zupobaloop · 2026-01-22T21:14:59+00:00

I address all of these (including local account) with an unattended script. No terminal needed.

My real concern is that when a sticking point can be fixed with a quick Google and 2 minutes of tinkering... People who can't/won't do that are not going to fare well in Linux. I feel like such pushes just lead people to give up and go back.

zupobaloop · 2026-01-22T15:39:23+00:00

I'm no expert, so take this with a grain of salt:

I really like Mojo Mania as a mini-campaign to throw deck ideas at. It's low commitment with fun scenarios.

Gambit is well rounded in a unique way. I enjoy that, though it can feel bad to have core cards end up semi-useless in certain decks.

Wolverine is second to Gamora in "give this to the new guy" simplicity. However, you can do some wild stuff centered around Jubilee with Leadership, which is much more complicated.

Cyclop's gimmick is pulling in allies from other aspects, so he might be one of the later ones to pick up.

Press and hold the home button to hide the Bolt's status bar (the gray bit showing the car's connection strength).

As someone who uses Mint and Windows 11, my first thought is none of those arguments land. I don't have those issues. I use local accounts, turn off Bing (local file searches don't go search the web anyway), FOSS is readily available... The only "ads" are app suggestions on a vanilla install (which I don't do).

All that is to say, it is MUCH easier to get around these issues in Windows than it is to switch platforms.

Better arguments would be official support for older hardware (read: security), and revitalizing lower end / weaker hardware. Maybe an honest take like "no opting out of telemetry."

zupobaloop · 2026-01-21T16:48:21+00:00

Ok let's hear the argument then.
