    "Latinx" or "Latine"?

    Jump

  • As someone who used Latinx in a Lemmy post and then was down voted to oblivion, just go Latino or Latina. But good on you for asking people how they'd like to be called.

  • JD Vance cast doubt on 2020 election results, wouldn't have certified result

    Jump

  • I'm legit curious (no that's not quite right, terrinquisive? Horrifious?) how they'll justify the exemption from term limits. My gut says it'll be something about two terms max consecutively for 2028, then if that works, just throw out the term limits in 2030 or have martial law spring up.

  • ‘The new normal’: work from home is here to stay, US data shows

    Jump

  • Three days per work week "on average" - but with no details over what timeframe that average is calculated.

  • People younger than 30, what advice would you give to people over 30?

    Jump

  • We'll my reading comprehension is quite shitty in the morning. Carry on with the down votes.

  • I don't know if it's even possible anymore (heck it's hard for me at 40), but try to put something in retirement funds. If your work as a 401k, try and contribute. If you leave the job, your money can then go to an IRA. How do you do that? Beats me - I have five or six requirement accounts, each topping out at around between $2-5k.

    Also, brush your teeth and if you grind them in your sleep - get a dentist to fit you for a mouth guard.

    Edit: wow, down votes for teeth health.

    Edit edit: reading comprehension isn't my strong suite.

  • ‘The new normal’: work from home is here to stay, US data shows

    Jump

  • I started a new position in my company in February 2020, just weeks before the lock down. Since then I've been almost entirely working from home, coming into the office maybe 10 days over the past 4 years.

    During that time I've been promoted, gotten a separate pay raise to a new band, helped onboard the entire rest of my team (two of whom are completely remote).

    I've done nothing but prove over and over again that I am excelling at my job remotely.

    They are still pushing for me to come back to a "hybrid" 3 day a week schedule. Madness.

  • Crypt force one.

    Jump

  • I mean at least Biden is a slow roll, Trump would rather nuke them.

  • Shaving

    Jump

  • If you go with some old school Gillette razors there are ones that might be up your alley.

    My wife has one of these but in pink - the long handle is evidently better for shaving legs than a standard safety razor?

    There are plenty of good soaps to choose from that avoid the overly manly smells - Taylor of Old Bond Street's Avocado smells delightful and not manly at all.

    But I agree, most of the modern day options seem over the top (looking at you Art of Shaving mall store).

  • Nexus mods want feedback from Linux / Steam Deck users on their new cross-platform app

    Jump

  • Yeah, I may catch flak but I wouldn't be inclined to ditch windows altogether. Unless you literally only do web browsing on your laptop, there's a high likelihood you may run into a few things that need troubleshooting to get working under Linux, and dual being able to switch back to Windows seamlessly is a huge help/comfort.

    If you can find the model number or service tag, that would be a big help for troubleshooting.

    There should be a sticker under your laptop with a bunch of tiny text, or if I recall correctly you can use System Information. See this article

  • Nexus mods want feedback from Linux / Steam Deck users on their new cross-platform app

    Jump

  • There should be a a button that you can press repeatedly to open up a boot menu - it can be the delete key, f2, etc.

    Depending on how new your laptop is, you may need to disable something called "Secure Boot". Keep in mind if your windows installation is encrypted with BitLocker or whatever else Windows is using these days. If it is encrypted, and you have secure boot enabled you may run into issues booting back into Windows - it will freak out that secure boot was disabled and require your encryption key.

    At least, that's what happened with my ROG Zephyrus M16 - I had to find my BitLocker key to boot into Windows and then decrypt it using the settings menu.

    Also, if you want to be able to use both Windows and Linux - see if your laptop has an expansion port for a second hard drive. Windows historically has screwed over dual booted Linux grub with updates, and if you can just boot to a entirely different drive that won't happen.

  • What is your favourite shell to use

    Jump

  • Plus oh-my-zsh and the powerline 10k theme - this is my go-to shell.

  • The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom – Announcement Trailer – Nintendo Switch

    Jump

  • Yeah, and she can use boulders to block attacks - but it looks like the main method of attacking will be using echos of baddies. ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

  • The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom – Announcement Trailer – Nintendo Switch

    Jump

  • I cannot over state how much I love that "Legend of Zelda" finally stars Zelda, not to mention the art style... But why did they give her apparently no offensive capabilities? Why wouldn't she be able to swing a sword? I want to see my Zelda kick ass, not summon monsters to fight for her.

  • Self-hosted YouTube frontend with some additional features

    Jump

  • Oh snap, are you the developer of Viewtube? If so, first off - great job. I do the infrastructure side of IT for my day job but aside from some basic go, I couldn't code something like this to save my life.

    I wish I had the chops to contribute to the project.

  • ‘No way out without bloodshed’: the right believe the US is under threat and are mobilizing

    Jump

  • David Bowie and Prince were holding this all together. When they went, the world lost its mind.

  • Leaked Google Search API documentation

    Jump

  • I wish someone would actually drop the full leak somewhere. It would be interesting to read this myself.

  • Galois

  • Suggestions for Linux Distribution

    Jump

  • Oh, I think CachyOS looks interesting - I'll try that one first. Thanks!

  • ts moment

    Jump

  • Shit, there are discord mods? Is there a list somewhere of popular mods/what do you recommend?

  • Brutal heatwaves and submerged cities: what a 3C world would look like

    Jump

  • I'm not a scientist, but wouldn't the rise be generally slow enough for people to evacuate, causing more of a concern for refugees from Florida spilling into Georgia, Tennessee, etc? It's still bad but I don't think you'd suddenly have a few million people drown one day.
