What am I missing in the “end Kernel panic” one?

That was a good read with some helpful tips, but they didn’t have a conclusion at the end so they never answered their own question!

Maybe to avoid confusion, they should just display units in GB instead of GiB? Or just display both

I wish he had the balls to follow through with it

I wish I could just up and buy a farm, that sounds like the life to me.

Happy birthday!

Ublock origin works too

I looked for a lazy way to get myself a Tux sticker and found this pack of stickers for $1

Bargain!

What it seems to me that you’re suggesting is essentially crowd sourcing a mix of investigative journalism and data analysis, which is not a skill I think that just anybody can pick up and do properly. To be fair I’ve never tried my hand at investigative journalism, but I have done a few units of data analysis and trust me there’s a hundred different ways to do it wrong. Even among the experts, there’s a lot of disagreements to what the best approaches are. I had a teacher even say that if you give a set of data to 10 data analysts, you’ll get back 12 different ways of interpreting it.

That is all to say that I’m not sure how much you’d be solving by providing another forum for people to post their takes on public policy issues, but then again if you manage to attract the right crowd of critical thinkers, who also happen to be open minded enough not to insert their own agendas into matters, perhaps people might hold each other accountable?

BTW have you checked that something similar doesn’t already exist? Insert obligatory xkcd comic:

Do the numbers themselves have any specific origin or meaning?

Oh that’s interesting, exposing kids to it is a great idea because then they won’t have the whole barrier of the ‘fear of the unknown’ when considering installing it on their own PC. Thanks for sharing!

I would like to see a breakdown of useage by region. For example I found stats that said India’s share of linux users rose from 9% in May to 15% in July. That’s quite a sharp increase in only 2 months! With a population of over 1 billion people, I’m betting this rise would have a significant increase in global stats, so I wonder what is behind it…

What do you mean by ‘normal’ package management?

What problems does the AUR create? I just install using yay, and it mostly works fine

Just to chime in, I first tried arch because some youtuber I followed recommended it, but after 5 years I would say I’ve stayed with it for the AUR and the community. The AUR has almost every app I’ve ever needed, and whenever I have a problem there’s always a solution on one forum or another, to the point where I can usually just copy and paste it into the terminal and it’s solved!

been with windscribe for 5 years now on arch, it works great. There’s only a CLI app but it works fine

Wood is mostly cellulose and lignin, which holds no nutritional value to us humans. Another comment said that termites have certain enzymes which digest it, but it’s actually the bacteria in their guts which break down the woody fibres so they can turn it into glucose. So, theoretically, maybe we could isolate those bacteria and somehow incorporate them into our guts too? I mean it probably wouldn’t work, but you never know until you try right?

Rubbish is what they are! The texture of chickpeas is just awful

iphones aren’t that common in Australia where I am so it’s never come up as a problem here. I usually give people shit when I find out they’re using one cos imo they’re a waste of money lol

Sadly I fear you’re right. It is nice while it lasts though, it takes me back to the early days of reddit
