Been running it for about 6 months now with no issues apart from a weird display issue when I go full screen in YouTube in Firefox on one display and the other display goes all white except for a couple of glitchy flickery areas, but I think that’s more Wayland/plasma 6 related.

I will say that I’ve worked with the Linux command line for years now so I may be slightly more technically capable with it in general than a complete newbie but I think most other people here on Lemmy have a similar level of experience as me.

The Guys podcast has a pretty fun episode about this.

If I’ve been repeatedly rerunning commands via ctrl-r’ing back through my history, I’ll start getting careless and more than i should have I’ve accidentally hit enter twice on the wrong command without pausing to double check first. Sometimes to less than desirable effect…

I guess these names are definitely memorable

What a fucking terrible name

Pity they didn’t get a real Aussie to voice the character

I had the same experience. Despite all the doomsaying online I found the installation and configuration process pretty straightforward thanks to the quality documentation.

I have this issue too, caused by the anxiety I have knowing that the moment I have to speak publically my mind goes completely blank and the more I try to recall the worse it gets. To help overcome the issue I take a few minutes to make a brief list of notes at the end of every day that outlines what I worked on that day and where I left things.

It ends up in me mostly reading off a list but since I work remotely I just put it on another monitor and it’s not a big deal. I give it helped a ton and I feel much less put on the spot at the beginning of each work day.

Yeah, Ask Historians was the only truly good subreddit, at least in terms of moderation and quality of content.

It’s important to note that the entire idea about Alpha males is based on a long-discredited theory that was itself based on flawed observations.

It came out on PC first

Void Bastards was heaps of fun. Might be time for another playthrough before the sequel (Wild Bastards) comes out.

Commodore 64, probably around '86 or so. It had a tape drive and games would take like 20 minutes to load. Crazy to think about now.

Later on (probably around 1989 or 1990) I got an Amstrad 8086 PC. IIRC it had maybe 1mb ram (pretty large for the time) and a massive 20mb hard drive. I remember playing games like bubble Bobble, the Sierra adventure games and so on. A few years later I got a 386 DX PC and played a lot of wing Commander and privateer, dune 2, LucasArts games and so on.

Ahhh, memories!

Yes. 44, Australian, drove a manual until very recently actually.

In Australia (Queensland at least) you have to pass a manual driving test in order to be legally allowed to drive a manual vehicle. At the time I was getting my license (1995 - 96) manual vehicles were still extremely common, plus I like driving a manual so it made sense for me.

Probably the pong game that my neighbours had hooked up to their tv in the very early 80s

I agree, and I have a lot of fun doing it. But I doubt that the average person would be interested in a discussion about yeast attenuation or which water profile to use for a particular style of beer.

I don’t think it’s super obscure, but I home brew beer and it’s a hobby where you can really go deep into the technicalities of tweaking recipes, building equipment, and just the overall process in a way that would probably bore the average non-brewer to death.

First time I got to the barn I heard this repetitive thumping sound and assumed there was some kind of goblin machine working away in there. I definitely did not expect to find THAT happening in there lol

Disagree about the Holdo maneuver but I will say it really should’ve been Leia. It would’ve made so much more sense for her to go out that way.
