When you’re coming from a position of extreme privilege and you’re either a bit stupid or lack empathy or general social awareness being treated equally with “lesser people” (like women, brown people or people from particular religious backgrounds) can seem an awful lot like you’re being discriminated against.

Not as badly as you’d expect, modern compression is pretty quick using the lz*'s and you’re only expending cycles when you’re hitting swap

We joke but zram swap works wonders on low resource systems sometimes

Better to figure this out late than never I guess. Wasn’t this obvious 10+y ago though? Facebook has always been a predatory propaganda firehose.

I miss windows eating my work when it chooses to install updates and reboot automatically while I’m asleep

Edit: even after I’ve set registry flags and policies to “never automatically reboot” - it’s always fun losing 4 days of work because windows randomly says “fuck you”

Carcinisation goes brrrrrrrr

When he started pushing his own tweets and Republican influencers to the top of my feed I quit the same day

I like pairdrop/snapdrop or Google quick share

Look up the exact model of the phone then check GSMArena or a similar site to see which bands it supports - then check to see which bands your carrier requires.

Also, in the US I usually recommend eBay or swappa for phones - their buyer protections are robust and it’s almost trivial to return the phone if there’s an issue that isn’t disclosed in the sale listing. Buying used/refurbed things on Amazon is a crapshoot in my experience.

I moved my elderly mother to ChromeOS and I no longer have to deal with the IT burden of supporting whatever she installed or broke this week. Move your parents to Linux if you truly enjoy being an on call unpaid helpdesk

Well his great great great grandchildren’s yacht collections aren’t going to pay for themselves you know

Quick someone draw duckbutt

Proving once again that it’s time for emulator developers to publish code on a federated git platform with TOR capability.

Is the 16gb partition the first partition? If so I’d just dd the 128gb drive at the 32gb drive then fix the partition table and remove the others.

If it’s not the first partition use gparted to copy it to the new drive.

90s script kiddie here - a bunch of the shit you can do as a minor with low/no consequences becomes SERIOUS FUCKING BUSINESS as an adult with assets. It’s just not worth the risk to keep dicking around with things that might land you in prison or cost you everything you have.

I mean, global warming us slowly into extinction is a pretty AI way to go about it

If: you’re a starred contact and call twice within 10 minutes and I happen to have the phone at hand and I’m pretty sure you have something important to say I’ll probably pick it up.

That happens about once or twice a year. We invented voicemail so we can speak when it works well for both parties.

By having long term goals. If you’re working toward something bigger in life each day is just progress on that journey.

If you don’t have any long term goals start thinking about where you want to be in 5 or 10y and make some. Then you can think about how to get there and start making short and medium term goals to help you along the way.
