For lurkers hoarding high quality content for this community, this is your sign to press the button "New post"

I've never really had good ideas to post

Even on reddit

It's the same for me

Except, i try to give reddit as little traffic as possible, unless i need it for reference for something

There's a reason I run Linux, and root my Android

Because it actually feels like my device now

(And fixing issues is significantly easier, if you know where to look)

I feel like that would cause false positives

Then again, not that many people mess with their router

Use a spectroscopic app on your phone

It'll help you identify the source of high pitch sounds

I once noticed an external HDD was making a high pitch noise intermittently, as the LED turned on and off. It was bizarre

Edit: spalling

It took a while, but i finally turned that mantra into "i need to sleep more"

I wonder how tough it would be to set up an "open source" style news media / investigative journal. Ideally using crowdfunding

I recently broke the networking stack by uninstalling ca-certificates

I was using a slightly risky command to delete unneeded packages, and for some reason ca-certificates was on the list

At least the fix was simple. Boot the rescue iso and reinstall them

I've gone full linux both at home and at work. Thankfully, most of the tools we use are cross platform / FOSS. But in the odd case, I use KVM (the linux equivalent to Hyper-V) to spin up a windows VM

It has it's issues (like graphics card pass-through), but it works pretty well

I spend a lot of time in the r/furry discord server

It's a wonderful place to just chat. Imo, discord is fine as a chatroom

This comment chain caused me to start reading Elantris

I'm gonna read all of the Cosmere in publication order (I've only read Stormlight Archive so far)

It's got electrolytes

I'm a fan of the Alera ALEEL42ME10B Elusion Series Mesh Mid-Back Multifunction Chair ($180 at time of posting). I use it both at home and work

I bought it in November 2021 and it's still going strong
The one at work has been there since before i was hired (5 1/2 years ago)

While i agree with this, vaping is (most likely) a whole lot better for you than smoking

But it's only the better of two evils
