  • What industry secret are you aware of that most people aren't?

  • There are other ones, this is just the obvious one. I've only spotted one other in the wild and I forget where it was.

  • Here's one on Google maps https://maps.app.goo.gl/55qqbQRYY7abKPVy9 I drove past this for years without thinking about it until one day I drove under it.

    Now that I know what it is, it's pretty obvious, but how often does the average person really inspect houses as they drive by?

  • Underground railways use houses for ventilation as well.

  • I demoed a system that let you input construction plans and walk around/ interact with ar wires/plumbing/walls once. But it was so cumbersome to implement it was more like a neat tech demo.

    Maybe once the tech is small enough to fit inside safety glasses...

  • Top 10 Generative AI Models Mimic Russian Disinformation Claims A Third of the Time, Citing Moscow-Created Fake Local News Sites as Authoritative Sources

    Jump

  • This is the frustrating part of it. The public doesn't understand what's actually happening, or what the goal of these large language models is, so because they're very convincing conversationalists, your average Joe considers them as true AI.

    Jump

  • My issue is, aside from gaming, I'm not interacting with the content or data in any meaningful, improved way.

    VR for real life is just a series of flat two dimensional screens, usually with a novelty background of a waterfall.

  • What was your first operating system or Linux Distribution?

    Jump

  • There's a few things from dos that have a permanent place my soul. A:/KEEN.exe, idkfa, iddqd and gorillas.

  • Right now my phone gives me the option if RCS fails for some reason, to send the message again with SMS. I assume that will be the case here as well.

  • I'm going to reinstall linux on my computer. What is it like to run something Silverblue based these days ?

    Jump

  • I'm using nobara right now, but somewhere over the last year my bluetooth has stopped working.This has led me down the road of a reinstall, nobara had been great for gaming but now that I'm looking at spending more time developing I'm also looking at an immutable os. There has been some really enlightening discussion here.

  • Why does no distro utilise BitTorrent to distribute packages?

    Jump

  • Bittorrent is nice for getting isos, but it would pul my hair out if I tried to download patches with it.

  • Dealing with games that just won't run on Linux

    Jump

  • I have a dual boot partition, but honestly the games that don't run are so few and far between that I really don't bother..

    It's like if you bought a Playstation, how do you play Xbox games? Unless it's really worth it, you just don't.

  • HP bricks ProBook laptops with bad BIOS delivered via automatic updates — many users face black screen after Windows pushes new firmware

    Jump

  • They're very inconsistent. I've had an x360 since 2020 and, aside from the hinge being weak, it's still going. I'm also pretty careless with my equipment. My wife uses it now.

    But then, I've seen more than one like yours that has seemed to evaporate like a cheap t-shirt.

  • Windows just changed my desktop wallpaper and re-added the search bar without my permission after an update

    Jump

  • Ive been 100% linux since 2016, and while there are some pain points, the games that work, work amazingly well.

    I have epic games, gog, steam games all working through launchers that work pretty perfectly. The biggest pain points are developers with intrusive anticheats.

    Check the games you/your friends play against protondb.com or areweanticheatyet.com before committing yourself.

  • Those of you who did not graduate, why?

    Jump

  • I asked my dad if he had any money saved to help with college and he told me that people like us don't go to college. I dropped out in grade 11. I hope to graduate university in three years from now at the ripe old age of 41.

  • [Solved] Best way to do an NTFS -> ext4 conversion?

    Jump

  • If it is not sensitive data, and you're okay being morally objectionable, you can buy a large hard drive from some place with a good return policy, transfer your data to it, format/repartition your drive, transfer everything back and return the hdd for a 15% stocking fee.

  • Addiction is a scary thing.

    Jump

  • I worked so hard for so long that I'm like this and it's awful.

    When I get time off, I don't know what to do with myself. Right now I have a full time night/ weekend job and I'm attending university with 5 courses. This summer I'm considering picking up another job because I won't know what to do with myself.

  • Did Fedora 40 break something for you?

    Jump

  • I use fedora on my thinkbook with Gnome/PaperWM and my upgrade experience was ezpz.

  • Post your Servernames!

  • Rabble. It's themed with my other devices, Pibble, Pabble, and Ribble.

  • I don't even know what my display drivers are.

    They're handled and updated by the operating system.

    Once a week I check for updates, and click a button to install anything I want updated.

    I literally have no clue what you're talking about.
