Encona hot sauces are some of the most readily available in the UK, reasonably priced, and they generally slap

Wanted to just chip in and agree that EndeavourOS deserves enormous praise for how much it gets up and running for you straight off the bat.

I run Linux on a 2012 MacBook Pro, more as a hobby than as my main computer.

It’s about the only distro that actually near-enough just works on that particular Mac at this point, with Linux Mint a close second. If I install it from the live image then change my network settings to use WPA 2 security rather than WPA 3 then I have a fully working computer.

Most distros fail to even boot to a working live image on that Mac. And if they do, then I can’t for the life of me get the WiFi working after that.

Being “terminal centric” scared me off at first, but I finally realised how little you actually need to know to install software and keep it updated once you’re up and running.

It’s an amazing distro.

Installing tuned-ppd (I think I’ve got that right) fixes this for a lot of people

Oh wow, that must have been amazing. I only saw it when the BBC broadcast it. But I don’t think I’ve ever been so moved by a science documentary.

• The Farthest (about NASA’s Voyager missions)
• Hurt Locker Hero / The Deminer (about Fakhir Berwari, a bomb disposal expert who disarmed thousands of landmines in Iraq with just a pocket knife and a pair of wire clippers)
• The Devil We Know (tells the story of DuPont’s decades-long cover-up of the harm caused by chemicals used to make its popular non-stick Teflon products)

All three are very good, very moving documentaries.

I’ve never been banned from Reddit even temporarily, I just like Lemmy more

We came, we saw, we kicked its ass!

If there’s a steady paycheck in it, I’ll believe anything you say

Janine, someone with your qualifications would have no trouble finding a top-flight job in either the food service or housekeeping industries.

Ghostbusters:

• Back off man - I’m a scientist

• Listen! You smell something?

• What about the Twinkie?

• Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together… mass hysteria!

• Yes it’s true, this man has no dick

• Ok, so… she’s a dog

• When someone asks you if you’re a god, you say yes!

• Aim for the flat top!

• Cross the streams

…and much much more

I wanted to give OpenSuse Tumbleweed a go yesterday, but the live USB got stuck at “Loading basic drivers” so I couldn’t even get to being able to install it.

I guess nothing’s changed then haha. I have a 2015 LCD Bravia. No longer my main TV, but it’s been awesome.

But the delay between turning it on and being able to switch inputs… Jesus.

These two are exactly what I use on iOS also

My 2012 MacBook Pro has exactly the opposite behaviour on a clean install across multiple distros. The brightness keys do nothing until after a suspend, then work fine until the next reboot. Never found a fix.

Yeah, I was a huge fan of that person going to that length, and saying they’d argued with their girlfriend about it, haha

Confusingly both. The name is from the red panda, but the icon is absolutely a fox!

This article immediately had me searching in confusion over whether the logo is a fox or meant to be a panda! What is your logo? Fox or red panda?

Occasionally you’ll click on an article or photo and there’s a really important explanation or disclaimer as the most-upvoted comment, but you’ll only see that first if you sort by top.

No, I was still being cheaper with phones at that stage.

I remember my friend getting an N95 and how that was a big deal back then haha.

After looking through an extremely long list of Nokia phones on Wikipedia, it might have been a 6120 classic.
