Missed that update, that’s great to know. Thanks!

However, If I recall correctly, I think that when creating a post if you upload an image then it is immediately put into the database whether or not the post is actually made. As a result I don’t think there is a way to overwrite these, so some trace would still remain in such an instance if I am not mistaken.

Furthermore none of this prevents or rectifies snapshots or backups of data being created by pretty much any entity - I know that’s probably not in the scope of the question, but just something tangentially related to keep in mind.

I’m not looking for anything, I was describing an experience I can’t explain per the thread which was probably mechanical or electrical in nature. Unsure how you got that impression.

One time on a summer day as a teenager I went to the grocery store with my Mom.

We parallel parked the car a ways away from other cars. We secured the car as normal and went on a short shopping trip.

When we came back out after maybe 15 minutes, all of the cars windows were rolled down completely.

We both know for a fact all the windows were rolled up when we left, and even if we had them down, there would have been no reason to have the back windows down.

Nothing was stolen, no one was around, everything appeared untouched.

This was a Nissan Murano if I recall correctly - it did have power windows, but at the time there was no fancy stuff to remote control car features outside of having a remote starter installed, which we did not have.

There was only one set of keys.

We still have absolutely no explanation for this to this day.

I see, that is troublesome. To my knowledge there isn’t much you can do except wait until they reply to you - unless someone else happens to have a different way of contacting them.

Can you not create that new account, and then just mod that account for the community using your existing mod account?

It’s to verify if either a configuration in Bazzite is the cause(such as your drivers), or if it is hardware related. The other comment asking if you installed the Nvidia version of Bazzite suspects driver issues as well, so a live USB would be able to rule it out or confirm it.

Alternatively, and probably the better option is to just take backups of your files and such and then reinstall Bazzite to the system, making sure you are using a version that is compatible with your graphics card. You don’t seem as though you know a tonne about Linux, so I would probably recommend that over trying to rebase the OS, as it will generally be easier for you to do I think, and more completely insure system stability.

Lol, yea I had a similar thought when writing it.

My Mom who plans these games takes it seriously because she wants people to have a good time, but has a really difficult time finding something which she considers accessible enough for everyone while still imparting some kind of challenge. She usually defaults to trivia, but then thinks that it should be Christmas trivia. The problem therein is that after 30 or more years of doing this, it has become wildly stale as there is only so much Christmas trivia, and it is not very engaging at all.

Last year I came to her with about 5 different new game ideas, all but one was shot down for some reason or another. The one that did get through went really well, but I am still thinking of others things I could bring to her well in advance, as she needs to mull over the logistics of whether they would meet her criteria for an acceptable party game.

I swear to god, one of these days the update will be “Today Youtube has announced that they will be removing the annoying videos from their ads”.

I love you. Please spread it fucking everywhere when you do.

Even people who would buy from Nazi’s still want a functional car.

These things randomly stop working, break if you drive it into a half a foot of water, have rear view mirror housings which bust off when you try to pull down the sun visor, have a single ethernet cable routing all the controls and devices so that if the connection breaks anywhere everything stops working suddenly, a shelf underneath the headlight which accrues dirt or snow as you drive until it is not serving its purpose, exterior panels which just fall the fuck off, and hardly get any mileage.

The only people who buy these are those incapable of the barest reasoning.

I’ve heard a lot about Kubernetes, but haven’t actually had to interact with it once incredibly. Interesting, thanks for the recommendation!

Wow thanks!

(I’m a junior dev at my job, and don’t have a lot of experience).

You’re robbing yourself of gaining legitimate experience.

I always use AI to explain things to me, not code for me.

Ok.

I made that my mission, so I don’t let it think for me because I want to learn.

Alright.

I asked it to build an app for me that works on KDE Plasma, my favorite DE.

Seems like the exact opposite of just having it explain concepts to you, and not letting it think for you, and not letting it write code for you.

I’ve never programmed in Python, and it chose Python. lol. Ok, let’s go with it.

Ok, so you aren’t actually learning any python, and it is just generating python code for you, which you made no attempt to change such that it would just be explaining concepts to you preferably in a language you do know. Sounds a lot like you aren’t doing a lot of the thinking in this process, or writing the code.

Creates that little script I mentioned earlier

Creates the .desktop file for that app and makes it point to the correct things (script, icon, startupWMClass(this is so the app will still launch after pinning it to the panel)…etc)

Copies the appimage into a “appimages” folder in the home directory

Adds an icon of your choosing to the app

It makes everything executable

Instead of asking AI to make this in a language you don’t know, you’d probably be a lot better off learning some BASH and discovering that this is likely doable in a one-liner or function which you can associate to an alias.

I had it package the app into an appimage

So it is thinking for you, writing the code for you, and packaging it for you.

The honest part. I feel a tiny bit of shame deep inside

You should.

Who cares how I created it?

Programmers, artists, your boss, your future self when something breaks in prod and you realize that you have robbed yourself of so much experience by outsourcing any opportunity to obtain skill, knowledge, and wisdom that you have no idea what the fuck to do or why the problem is happening, and then someone sues you over it because it turns out in the mess of AI code which you haven’t even looked at 60% of up until this point there are out of scope variables from a thread the AI found on 1337codeForum.fuck circa 2008 which lead to a disaster where some guy who actually knows how code works half way around the globe stack buffer overflowed the fuck out of you.

If you want honest opinions from people, then this is mine. That little shame you feel is probably larger than you think and it’s because you aren’t doing yourself any favors.

Yes.

Awesome, thanks! It didn’t occur to me that IKEA could be an option!

Personal system but I work in technology, so learning solutions used in industry is always handy.

I want spinning disks as they have shorter life but a wider mean time between failure, which should be better for the RAID I want to configure.

Since SSDs have a definitive number of writes in their lifetime, as I recall it can be kind of dangerous to install several new ones at the same time in something like a raid 1 configuration.

As far back as I can recall, there have been at least two types of internet forums.

There are ones where dumb people go to pretend to be smart, and there are ones where smart people go to pretend to be dumb.

The problem with the ones where smart people pretend to be dumb is that eventually it attracts actual dumb people. Then the forum dies.

That’s great to know, all four of my other machines are running Debian right now so I should have a pretty good idea of what’s up!

That probably is what I will do for some time, leaning it gently and securely against a wall somehow, but in the future rack would be nice - especially if I find some enterprise firewall for sale or something.

Also really happy to hear ebay might have iLO licenses - I have grabbed a couple one-time licences off there for windows machines before, but I didn’t know they sometimes had stuff like this too.

Thanks!
