If I leave left over coffee (especially with milk) in there over night or the weekend it may say hello the next time I open it. For cleaning the cap the dishwasher seems to be the only option, cleaning by hand is very difficult.

To be fair, my wife has used it about 90% of the time.

PRUSA releases the OpenPrintTag, open source standard for filament spool identification and data tracking
Hmm, seems like a decent idea. Definitely better than closed tag systems.

Wine 11.0 is planned for release tomorrow, featuring NTSync for improved NT synchronization, fully supported new WoW64 mode, enhanced Wayland/Vulkan drivers, and many other improvements
I wonder if at some point Wine on Linux will become better than Windows itself.

Junoir vs Senior
If I interpret the mac as just any laptop then I kind of agree. The more experience I have gained the less I care about how many monitors I have or how fancy my keyboard is. I do require linux though.

Working in a large corporation is a place where you get paid for
Reply in thread
It's okay even fun at first, but eats your soul slowly over the years. Edit: that ofcourse depends on perspective e.g. what you are doing at the moment. I myself moved from an abusive job to a cozy corporate one, it seemed like heaven at first.

Might be just my anecdotal experience but that seems to be the case for basically any group of people. Edit: typos

Maybe Lemmy can forcibly invent a new term for "ricing". (Good faith pls)
Pixel polishing. A term we use for frontend code at work (all backend developers).

Try a few Gigabytes. I worked on site IT support for a year, we had to max out memory on a workstation because the company database was a, about 3GB, Excel file. It took minutes to open and barely worked, crashing frequently.

Android's Quick Share now works with iPhone's AirDrop, starting with the Pixel 10 lineup | TechCrunch
Not an Android feature, a Google Pixel 10 feature. It may tricle down but Aplle will more likely patch it to hell before that happens. In my humbe opinion.

Steam is working on adding zstd compression for game chunks (every game file is split into 1MB), it currently uses LZMA.
I don't know much about compression algorithms. What are the benefits of doing this?

I get where you're coming from. But as something of an enthusiast myself I don't always know GUI tools for all the tasks I can do in a terminal. Edit: typos

how do i stop being so obsessed with a fictional character?
I'm not saying this is the best advice, but maybe it resonates with you. Find a non fictional character or any subject that seems interesting. If there is a person that seems cool and has a biography try reading/listening/watching that. By doing this you broaden you horizon a little and that itself should give you a slightly changed view on your own fictional character. In this way you and you character can evolve together and that may also change your relationship with the character. As others have mentioned, joining a group activities like sports, volunteering, debating club, etc can also be beneficial. TLDR: Broaden your horizons. Try to interact with new people and new ideas/views.

"SO proof" distro
I guess it depends what she does on her pc.
But ignoring that, Mint without sudo. Throw in flatpaks and appimages.
Immutable distros are probably fine too but in my experience they tend to be a bit fussy if you need to change something in the system config.
Ubuntu, always a solid choice for beginners but Gnome shell is a bigger change from windows conpared to Cinamon.
P.S. I have Mint on our TV PC and my SO handdles it without issues.

Why the downvotes? I had the same question. It's hard to keep track.

If I'm not mistaken most of the driver is fixes for games doing weird shit with graphics api.
