You realise that people with political opinions run these technical solutions right? See all the recent proton hubbub?

“Please don’t mention the political landscape that is a painfully obvious reason why some people need VPN solutions” is a strange stance to have.

Valve games had me memorize so many commands I tucked around and ended up in IT

No screen share and there seems to be a reluctance to add/address requests for it. They add that and I can get my whole community to switch. Until then it’s not happening.

For the most part it’s just a different browser and way weirder looking links that make navigation too much of a chore for average day to day users, but there are link aggregators, forums, and search tools for finding whatever category of the web you’re looking for.

So really it’s a phishing attack? Maybe he should say that instead instead of being an alarmist that clicking a link will get your credentials stolen.

Every video I see of this guy is filled with disingenuous bs.

Just want to say good luck. Someone brought me one of these and asked to make it ready to be their university laptop in 2013. I worked real hard not to laugh because money was obviously tight but I just told them to return the pos to Amazon.

Never said they were. But it’s foolish to ignore the significant populations of school children and older non technical people who have been reccomended the cheapest thing that won’t get viruses and let’s them get on Facebook and YouTube.

Unfortunately chromebooks have been one of the cheapest options for a whole now and have been being introduced all over school systems in the US so kids are used to them and uninformed parents will continue to buy what they know meete school requirements.

Everyone that can definitely should switch to Firefox.

Why would mint be considered old but not ubuntu?

King pick. 740s and 940s also welcome. Rwd turbo bricks ❤️

Eh, if you watched the reveal of Kimberly in SF6 there was some pretty awful shit coming from the Japanese stream chat. People suck everywhere

It’s a rock and a hard place. Upset people who have put money into skins that now don’t transfer or upset people with old / non compatible hardware.

CS2 is the only reason I keep a windows install, Idk how they fucked their own native client so bad but my 3080 moves like a slides how while reporting 250+ fps compared to buttery 340+ on windows :'(

It seems to have no effect either way. Originally I attempted without, then when it didn’t hold after a reboot and some further reading I added the After= line in attempt to ensure the service isn’t trying to initiate before it should be possible.

I can manually enable the service with or without the After= line with the same results of it actually working. Just doesn’t hold after a reboot.

This one seemed perfect but nothing lasts after the reboot for whatever reason. If i manually re-enable the service its all good so I suspect theres no issue with the below - I added the after=multi-user.target after the first time it didn’t hold after reboot.

[Unit]
Description=Runs alsactl restore to fix microphone loop into headphones
After=multi-user.target
[Service]
ExecStart=alsactl restore

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

When I run a status check it shows it deactivates as soon as it runs

Apr 11 20:32:24 XXXXX systemd[1]: Started Runs alsactl restore to fix microphone loop into headphones.
Apr 11 20:32:24 XXXXX systemd[1]: alsactl-restore.service: Deactivated successfully.

How can I run a sudo command automatically on startup? I need to run sudo alsactl restore to mute my microphone from playing In my own headphones on every reboot. Surely I can delegate that to the system somehow?

The email itself has likely been updated, I too have a steam login username with an email included. Cool bit of legacy flair though

Sure, I’ll do that. But you’ve lost 99% of average people when you mention “virtual machine”.

Also at least for mint which I was directly talking about you actually boot via live USB first and have to install from an icon on the desktop so there really is no risk for erasing windows until your well into making decisions. Which again you have to choose to erase windows.

You’re right, but the point I was trying to get across to another layman is you can have windows already installed and not break anything with another install of Linux. Rather than get into partitioning and dual booting.

I made the dive into Linux mint last night. If you already have windows installed you can side load so you don’t have to completely commit right out of the box. I play games that would require windows so this was necessary for me but so far outside of hating middle mouse click to paste and some troubleshooting for my headset (I could hear myself quietly through my headphones when speaking into mic) Linux has been preferable to win11
