It failed to fix itself. Yes, I “ignored” it for a few days as I had no time to sit for it to check the drive - when I was ignoring the prompt it was still working. It would have broken itself earlier, and I would have been even more screwed. And no policies for backup were allowed by IT, other than a couple files on OneDrive.

Windows was able to boot for a week, prompting me every time, until I didn’t manage to skip it one day. Then it bricked itself

The “fix” once moved my entire windows folder into some kind of lost and found bin. It was years ago so I don’t remember the details. I had to move the files back by recovery command prompt. At least IT gave me the bitlocker key. That whole process sucked

Looks like Grandpa is getting ready for a lemon party! 🥳

You’re giving me flashbacks to a dark time in my life when I got a degree in GIS to be a GIS analyst or whatever… Bullet dodged

From my experience with tailscale so far - there are so many different ways to have it configured well. If it works well for you having it on the host, then go for it. I have home assistant in a VM with tailscale and tailscale on the (windows) host. This works well for my needs and I don’t mind having it running “twice”

Google gave up on their version of DeX or whatever? Good

Multiple versions, paths, and installs of Python. Using pip makes it worse.

I still don’t fully understand how to gracefully have multiple desktop environments and switch between them. When I want to try something new to me like lxqt, I usually spin up a VM.

That’s great, but it should still be possible and well documented for people to run things natively. Some people want less bloat for technical reasons (maintaining a product with very little storage or memory). Tinycore Linux is my go-to example of the benefit of keeping things lightweight for a purpose.

At first I thought I’d find these annoying when I was on vacation. Instead I liked that I never lost the top.

…Houston, Texas…

I was there the night of the incident last year. I was afraid of a stampede BEFORE the shooting, it was that crowded. Yeah, guns need to be banned or Paxton needs to provide a realistic solution.

I used to pride myself in Linux uptime on my desktop. Went without rebooting for months at a time. Back then, I wouldn’t let myself dual boot

I have a pixel 8, and a pixel 6 before that. The same bugs have followed me the whole time. I guess PiP, keyboard, bubbles, and graphical issues just aren’t being worked on. I’m waiting on Apple sideloading updates before I’m upgrading, but this is a piece of shit. I would try another OS, but I am afraid of getting banking apps and Google Fi working.

Clearly, the creator of this hasn’t put together enough IKEA stuff. Half of those dowel holes should be the screw in thingies that mate with the 1/4-turn cam things on the other side. The holes on the top of the hand would be on the bottom, with the cams. Also, it would not say “disposable thumbs” on the page - It would give the product-line name on the front cover.

Unrefined whole grains… But it shows bread? Isn’t flour considered refined?

Maybe Intel should boot using the embedded x86 in the chipset when the CPU dies in 13th/14th gen. CPU optional.
