Guess they’re all a bunch of pussy. Too scare to say anything to upset their boss, the mighty Donald
mazzilius_marsti@lemmy.worldto Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•Has anyone else just had great luck with Liux recognizing devices?English3·21 days agoyeh years ago, to get Linux working you might need an older computer because the kernels did not catch up yet. Nowadays, I can just buy any new computer and can be sure that 90% of my devices will work with it.
The only problem now is modern standby. Intel and AMD kept fucking up standby mode on laptops.

On the flip side, please keep digging yourself in a hole, Microsoft. More incentive to join Linux for us users.
mazzilius_marsti@lemmy.worldOPto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why do some drivers turn off the signal sound so quickly?1·2 months agoThanks everyone for replying. Looks like I wasnt clear on the OP: these drivers literally have their left hand (for left handed traffic) the entire duration of the turn - it almost seems like if they let the signal to “tick” for more than 1 second then a bomb would explode or something. And they always commit to the turn, the signal is just a façade. So the correct sequence is like this:
- Signal on AND commit to turn at the same time. No delay. Thats why I mentioned these guys dont even look.
- Car not fully into the other lane => signal off.
Everything takes place in 0.5 second. Or you blink and he’s gone.
Regarding the autocancel signal, yeh I do know about that. On old cars like the 2016 Corrola - you flick the signal, it stays flicked until you flicked it off or finish a turn. On new ones like Mini Cooper / BMW, a gentle flick would signal for 3 sec then automatically turn off. This is something different lol.
mazzilius_marsti@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Do you use your blinker in a car?31·2 months agoEither you use it or you dont. It is good to use it though, make it a good habit. Plus, I want to announce to those around me especially when I am backing up into a garage: I am here, do not stand in my way. If you dont use it, obviously you can cause accidents.
That being said, there is a 3rd group who I absolutely fucking despised:
Those who use it just to show the cops or whoever the fuck around that “look, I use blinkers”
When changing lane or enter a turn, uually this type of driver will go Click-Turn-Click. No head movements whatsoever. Also turning the signal off immediately like the sound of it can cause them brain cancer or something.
mazzilius_marsti@lemmy.worldto Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•Diving into daily driving LinuxEnglish1·2 months agothe simplest answer would be: just try them all by yourself and see which one fits. Try only the popular ones btw, otherwise you’d have a hard time finding supports.
Word of advice: dont mind the aesthetics, but pay attention to stuff like package managers / packages and community. Here is what I meant:
-
Unless you have special flavor from a distro like XFCE from Manjaro, any Linux distro can be made pretty. I can have Debian 12 on one computer and something like Arch on another, and I can still make both look exactly the same. So dont choose a distro just because it looks pretty, you can do that with any of them.
-
Packages and package managers are so important, those are how you get software on Linux. Debian has a lot of softwares in its repos. Arch’s main repos do not have as much, but its AUR repos allow a lot of softwares to be installed.
Do you like apt, the manager for Ubuntu/Debian? Or do you prefer dnf, the manager for Fedora and RHEL? Package managers are more of a style really. I like Fedora’s dnf but Arch’s pacman is way faster.
- Community is also important. You dont want to pick a distro where only a handful of ppl use it. It would be very difficult to get supports. Ubuntu / Mint / Debians are so popular that you can get answers from any forum.

mazzilius_marsti@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Windows 11 is closing a loophole that let you skip making a Microsoft accountEnglish5·3 months agooh LibreOffice works great for me in general. Only for some documents with macros that were created in MS Office, I have problems running them. Eg: I once received a MS Word document that has some preprogrammed drop down list - so you click to extend the list and choose your items. The document opens fine, but I couldnt get the drop down feature to work. For Excel, documents with lots of VBA codes, I need to go in and do some manual changes.
In general, for 99% of the tasks, LibreOffice is fine. But it is that 1% which makes me still open up my Windows VM for MS Office.
After their shenanigan with subscription only models, we still see MS Office being used a lot. It shows how strong MS grips on the Office area is.
You are correct that 365 is used for most people. I used to use it too…For me, I prefer to be able to access stuff whenever I want. I live in an area with very shitty internet (both Wifi and 4G). Once, a client and I had to wait 5 minutes because Office Online takes too long to load up a spreadsheet. Offline for me is just a peace of mind.
mazzilius_marsti@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Windows 11 is closing a loophole that let you skip making a Microsoft accountEnglish121·3 months agoLibreOffice better step up their games and make their office suites better. Outside of very niche and specialized applications like CAD or video editor, the average Joe will just need a good office suite to do stuff.

I would think he and RFK planned everything. The fact that RFK ran as a “3rd candidate” was just a facade. Remember how he spent months running ads, promoting himself as a much better candidate? It’s all part of the show.
