  • Important context: White male 20something, big expensive sedan, Early 2000s YMMV.

    On the highway in the Deep South United States. Pulled over for speeding. Police wanted to search the car. I refused, they called in a K9.

    I was pulled to the side of the road and sat down in the grass while we waited for the dog. Bunch of other officers started rolling up and just hanging out expecting what I can only imagine to be the biggest bust in a while.

    The K9 got a hit and they searched the entire car. They found a glass pipe buried in an old cigar box in the back of the car in a book bag. The cops were absolutely and completely confused. “There has to be more, the dog woulda never hit on this if there wasn’t more.” The cops kept searching.

    I wasn’t handcuffed or anything, someone was just watching me. A pipe was a misdemeanor where I’m from, but jail time/probation where I was stopped.

    After an hour of searching they found nothing else and handed me my pipe and box and told me to throw it in the woods and to leave. Wasn’t worth the paperwork.

  • “Reid Hoffman has a reality check for entrepreneurs: if you’re serious about starting a company, you should say goodbye to binge-watching your favorite Netflix show after dinner or sleeping in on the weekends—you need to be on the work grind all hours of the day.”

    You’re clearly not committed to reading articles either. “It’s a headline, it must be about me. Let me make sure I share my opinion without reading the article!”

    Opinions based on false perceptions when the truth is 20seconds of discovery away, is just willful and lazy ignorance. Thats not just a red flag, thats also red hat behavior. You can do better than that if you want to.

  • Linux has some problems that I just can never find answers for.

    #1. Can’t do 4k 340hz on my display port 1.4 cable. Even though I can on windows and Mac. In Linux the option is there with the nvidia driver, but the screen goes black anytime I try to use it. No solution.

    #2. Ubiconnect won’t work with Ann 1800 even though it’s good on proton.db and others are reporting it works great, I was never ever able to get it working or find reliable steps to get it working.

    It’s a needle in a haystack trying to find fixes for things like this. Linux offers a lot, but still doesn’t offer the most important thing ease of fixing problems quickly so you can just do what you want to do.

    Run a game and work at the native resolution.

  • Cool ass logo. Very modern and more inline with Firefox’s style. It’s a Much improved design across the board.

    Open license it and give it to the project. I’d love to be able to use this in the settings.

  • Step 1. Bookmark Reddit thread

    Step 2. Summarize user problem in the thread.

    Step 3. Copy and paste the following “Have you had any issues with alarm clocks on Google Pixel lately? Let us know in the comments below.”

    Step 4. Publish to the CMS

    Step 5. Watch the bots seed slop article to social media.

  • Linux community doesn’t help the user friendly nature of the OS, that’s true. Steam deck runs Linux so if it works on steam deck it will likely work on Linux mint or Ubuntu.

    Lots of terminal help and outdated forum posts make it feel difficult to manage Linux, you’re right it is overwhelming and it’s not going to have full software compatibility, but if you spend lots of time in the browser and rely on web services it works fairly well over all and is generally low maintenance if you stick to the App Store and use graphic user interfaces.

  • Your inability to deal with loss is what will inevitably hold you back. You chose to argue, and you lost. You won’t get a stomach ache from swallowing your pride, but you will isolate yourself to a sad echo chamber if you choose to block and sedate everyone and everything that hurts your feelings.

    6a bugs crowd source solutions

    6a latest updates including security patches. I’ve experienced a few really frustrating bugs and would like the communities help to figure out possible causes or solutions.

    1. Google assistant crashes after the trigger phrase is said.

    Solution: google app clear cache and data

    1. Alarms quick tile is not showing the next alarm, but is showing the next due date/time associated with a task in Microsoft to-do. Clicking the tile opens Microsoft todo to the task. This occurs even though the next alarm is before this tasks due date/time.

    Why isn’t the tile opening the clock/alarm app?!?!?!?

    Solution: ?? Help ??

    1. Poor modem reception for lte/5g networks. Sitting in the car, Girlfriends iPhone had strong 5g, pixel kept dropping network and not operating voice or data. Restarts didn’t work.

    Solution: ?? Help ??
