I too am curious. It would also be insightful to see where the real OC comes from, I would think most casual users browsing and occasionally commenting would be on the official app. Where the users who contribute popular, useful content are likely on a 3rd party app and/or pc
I dual boot and am maybe considered a newbie. But I’ve had this set up for about a year slowly preparing to stop using Microsoft crap. It’s part of a longer path to digital privacy that was kicked into gear when the win 11 update made my Wi-Fi card disappear, like gone- like it was never installed. Fuck HP and Microsoft
Ironically I had disabled secure boot to try another distro. Was going to drop Ubuntu for something else, still might but no rush, plenty to learn.
For what it’s worth I think the stuff you guys learn is absolute wizardry. I’m going into my last two semesters of a BS in civil engineering, so I can relate. I do think my studies are easier than electrical but I’ve had a couple semesters where I was just floored by the difficulty, exhausted from the pace, and depressed thinking I’d get kicked from the program or bomb a crucial test.
I believe your other comment is correct, it will be worth it. I can already look at problems in a different way, and I understand things in a way that’s hard to explain in words.
My question: I’m concerned that the plans for green energy have a serious and unaddressed limitation in electrical power transfer. I think mining the needed metals to just build the stuff could further mess up the planet- not to mention the load the grid would have to handle. Do you foresee any changes in the ways we transmit power? Is changing from ac-dc or vice versa a feasible solution?
Lastly, be good to yourself, I extended my degree a semester and took it easy- really helped me. Good luck!
Idk, I just checked the App Store and if you sort reviews as most recent they are almost all 1 star
Thanks man, I can math pretty hard but you’re the only field that uses imaginary numbers! e^i*pi still trips me out.
For sure there’s lots of political crap holding us back. I heard some crazy statistic about how much grid work would be needed to get us to replace coal and other fossil fuels with electricity.
I’d agree that the generation is handled, just need to build it. Maybe I’ll see you on the job down the road! Keep positive, you got this
I’ve noticed that, I also appreciate you can kinda tinker which I appreciate. It’s wild being so accustomed to the limited control you have from using windows and mainstream software
That is sad, I did enjoy some follow ups, the drama was a good read even if it was someone’s creative writing practice. I truly appreciated seeing skills grow. I followed a few craft/hobby subs; sometimes someone would ask a very novice question and end up posting incredible work a few months later. Don’t get me wrong, I hate reddit- especially now, but there were some good, helpful communities

AMAs died when Reddit fired Victoria, they haven’t been worth a shit in a while.
