Linux For Life

  • So prior to Win 7 or so, Ctrl+Alt+Del brought up the task manager. Now it brings up a lock screen from which you can select additional options.

    Ctrl+Shift+Esc pulls up the task manager, like it did back when you learned it.

    • Linux For Life

  • Why not Ctrl+Shift+Esc?

    • What are three questions you can ask someone new to know if they are friend material or not?

  • Having an open mind is great and all, but once you’ve gathered enough information to take a position you’re not obligated to coddle those who remain willfully ignorant. I’ve personally never found astrology “fun,” it’s stupid woo that encourages people to adopt other stupid woo. At a time when anti-intellectualism is being institutionalized into government policy (in the US at least,) I don’t see how anyone in good faith can actively encourage that.

    • Trump Gives Supreme Court Middle Finger on Mistakenly Deported Man

  • Normally I’d accuse you of doomsday speculation, but he already proposed this:

    • What was a fact taught to you in school that has been proven false during your lifetime?

  • Yep, back in the 90s they were in some places. My local supermarket had one like this, except without the annoying ad on the left side.

    • At These Grocery Stores, No One Pays: A growing number of free grocery stores offer shoppers not just free food, but choice, ambiance, and space for dignity, too.

  • It’s a food pantry funded by donations.

    • What was a fact taught to you in school that has been proven false during your lifetime?

  • That wasn’t so much a “fact” told in school as it was a prediction, and it was true for them. Some people carried pocket calculators, but most people didn’t. Some supermarkets has calculators built into their carts, but most didn’t.

    Failing to predict society’s norms in 20 years isn’t the same as teaching a false fact.

    • What's a great minigame within another game?

  • Same. I’m playing GTA San Andreas on mobile (through Netflix if you interested) and while the game holds up, all the minigames suck ass. I’m likely not going to complete a single one. Maybe I’ll cave and do burglaries for infinite sprint, but probably not.

    • Pedro Pascal Explains Why ‘The Last of Us’ Role Puts Him In “Unhealthy Mindset”

  • It’s hard for me to separate what the characters are going through and how it makes me feel

    Saved you a click.

    • ‘The Pitt’ Season 2 Will Take Place On A Holiday Weekend, Producer Reveals

  • I’m expecting another mass casualty event when a fireworks show goes horribly wrong.

    • What are some of your unpopular opinions, hot takes about shows, streaming services, the wider industry etc?

  • It gets easier around Season 2, as the story starts to coalesce around a handful of key characters.

    • 6* months away now. If you're on 10, do you plan to upgrade? Make the jump to Linux?

  • I’m on 12, and will be upgrading to 13 when Trixie hits stable.

    • ‘No tip for illegal’: Server left with racist note at LAX Planet Hollywood

  • It’s pay in the US. Your country’s customs are not universal.

    • What is the lowest quality product you’ve ever purchased?

  • A knockoff iPhone charger from China. I plugged it into my computer and it literally caught fire.

    • What single image can you use to express a complex situation that would otherwise take minutes to explain?

  • Cries in USA.

    • Using sexism for engagement

  • Exactly my impression. And my response? Fuck that shit.

    • Universal Coronavirus Vaccine Breakthrough: A Single Shot That Could Protect You From COVID, MERS, and the Common Cold

  • Wong says the team’s new vaccine could also provide protection against coronaviruses that cause influenza and the common cold.

    Ugh science reporting is terrible. “This new tool could stop the cockroaches that cause bedbugs.” See how stupid that sounds?

    Influenza is caused by influenza viruses.

    • "I'm socially liberal but fiscally conservative" - What do you think when you hear that?

  • I link this article every time the discussion comes up:

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U.S._economic_performance_by_presidential_party

    The first paragraph is a doozy.

    • Was a TV show you like ever ruined by the addition of a particular character to the point that you had to quit, or nearly quit?

  • I’m going to disagree with Dawn. I feel like she was the one addition that really worked: the ballsy gaslighting that turned out to be a retcon and her being central to the plot actually sold her for me.

    Plus I grew up on Pete and Pete so I was already a Michelle Trachtenberg fan.

    • Are you an organised or disorganised person?

  • Oh hi me!
