Well, I am a beginner to Linux but I have been pretty well involved with Windows systems in the past. Not that I necessarily want the appearance of Windows. I guess I’m looking for lightweight recommendations specifically, right now to bring this laptop back from like a 5+minute boot time

My wife is leaning toward Ubuntu “MATE”, how would you feel about that versus the Debian and you mentioned. Personally I was thinking about mint
Would you say Debian is the lightest weight distro? Basically this will be used for college work maybe and just internet work stuff otherwise. So I’m trying to see just how well I can get this laptop to run at the baseline hardware.
Are you talking about plasma Fedora?
It does have 64

This is a myth, every single thing I eat all day has a ton of fiber in it and I have never had a problem. No doctor will recommend limiting your natural fiber in any way
As a nurse, I can say this is always the answer, vegetables & fruit. The American diet is horrible for the GI system. When I went vegan some years ago I started having three a day, takes less than a minute apiece
I agree that, theoretically, chipping hit points is not accurate battle simulation. I also agree that lore is not story, and basically unless you look up stuff online in most from software games, the story essentially doesn’t exist or is so obtuse and hidden that it’s unfollowable. However, these are still, to me, some of the greatest games ever made just based on the fun of the combat and the sheer beauty of the game & world design. I’m currently playing through Sekiro and it is gorgeous and intriguing, the story is also there and presented better than many of the other games in my opinion. However, this game is also so unrelentingly (realistically) difficult, and lacks viable alternative progression routes that I think most people would just give up on it, to be honest. This kind of defeats the purpose of being such an enjoyable and beautiful game in many cases. So, I think what makes a good game is also very much determined by individual human context.
I’m totally not disagreeing with you by the way, except for the “Chipping hit points… is dumb as shit” piece, which Sekiro actually still kind of features.
Bristlecone@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•How would you fake your death and live after that ?2·2 years agoKind of similar sounding, I want saw a movie about a guy who jumps over the side of a freeway to try and commit suicide and then ends up getting trapped on a little island under the freeway. He ends up like needing to do a little farm or something down there if I’m remembering correctly. I actually really enjoyed the premise now that I’m thinking about it
I think this number is a lot lower than people may think. From personal experience I have had covid more than four times (not testing anymore), I was only actually symptomatic to any degree with the first one. By contrast, my partner has never once actually tested positive, despite certainly having it at least once, having caught it from me, and being very symptomatic. Some people shed a lot of the virus, and some people shed not any basically whatsoever, since the tests are based on actually shedding the virus, many people who simply don’t shed the virus have caught covid-19 and simply don’t realize it or won’t ever test positive
Right, that’s the thing they don’t get. Might surprise them to learn, I almost wish their beliefs were true, so that they might taste that eternal fire they wish on others for their own shitty actions and thoughts
You alright fellow human bean?

Bristlecone@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What foods can last 3-4 days without refrigeration?281·2 years agoI dig what you’re getting at here man, however my advice is just get a little propane camp stove. Mine has improved my camping life so greatly I’m kicking myself for not buying one before. It’s not even expensive one and you can cook in no time flat anywhere. That being said Tuna and crackers is a classic, there is a lot more canned meat than tuna and you can get a lot of variety out of crackers.

The cold burger is a favorite of mine for some reason. It can really hit the spot!
Hmmm, wow I am maybe a tiny bit afraid haha. Thank you for the info though. That would be interesting to experiment with!
