Rate my outfit, going to work
The hot days have come, I am wearing a teeshirt with "Let me sleep" on the back, shorts "I am retired, you are not" and flip flops. I am going to my work (a bank)
The whole switch to Wayland pisses me off
its BUGGY and distros keep pushing it to users as if it worked correctly; It doesn't.
GNOME, one of the biggest desktop environments, breaks constantly under Wayland. It breaks on the brand new laptop (framework), it breaks on the old laptop (old ass Dell)
People keep talking about switching everyone to linux, but then as soon as we have a mature technology (X11), we replace it with half baked garbage
Also, bug report in GNOME created
Does anyone know how i can revert to the old UI in firefox?
I dont like how it looks now, and i remember somebody here provided steps how to revert
"US Person": is a red flag for financial institutions in Europe
I saw some posts about american wanting to move to Europe; so just before you guys make the move, double-triple check insurances/banks, because literally every time I (not american) do smth financially related in France, they ask me if I am american? If yes, they won't even open accounts/ give me insurance etc.. Sounds discriminatory but apperently because legal
I dont know if that expands to any other field
EDIT: lol i am now wondering what are people are downvoting for? You dont like that fact, so you downvote whoever told you that fact? Some reactions are hilarious
To whoever posted EVE screenshots not long ago
I went back to EVE after 10 years; bought Omega subscription, finally found first gas site today, after 2 weeks, huffed, then got blown to pieces in my shuttle on my way to Jita (for better gas scoops), lost 60mil in implants.
See you guys in 10 years again! That d be 20€
Switched mom's laptop to latest Fedora
Unfortunately couldnt make Hi P2P Client working, but at least the laptop is usable now: it took several seconds switching between tabs or copying text under mouse when it was running on windoze. Laptop is very low end specs (4Gb ram and some i3 cpu)
Found this in an electrical box. What is this thing?
Most likely totally unrelated to electricity
Expecting a LLM to become conscious, is like expecting a painting to become alive
Looks so real !
My GF gave me one afternoon to fix this, what do i do
The radiator makes unbearable noises throu out the night, which drives her insane. We think that this is due to air pockets in the pipes, we can hear crackling and water drops.
The heating system is common to the whole building, and I cant turn off hot water.
How do i open this shit
If the Nürnberg process had to happen today, we d just feed the documents to chatgpt, and ask it to generate the accusatory speech
Then instead of making the documentary about the horrors, it would just generate a couple of lame pictures
My phone outlived its case
Not sure if phone's quality is high, or my expectations of consumer's experience is so low.
I got both in 2018
I learnt to swim! Efficient swimming techniques ?
Extremely proud to announce that I just swimmed (swam? swum? eh..) from the beach of Mazzaro to the Grotta Azzurra, and back. This is the first time I went to the sea deep enough to not touch the ground lol.
I think that swimming on the back is the most tire-less method, while front crawl is the fastest but requires the most energy. But this is just my opinion, any advice on how to swim in the ocean? The salted water in my nose still sends me in a little panick mode, but I managed to calm down and continued. Will do again
when I pour hot water int othe sink, the lights turn on
That's the question. When cooking and then pouring the water into the sink, for 10 seconds the lights on the counter turn on. These lights are usually broken and refuse to turn on manually. The lights are a strip of little LED bulbs glued on the cupboard .
i have a theory but i am not an electrician
EDIT : case solved by GIGACHAD (that's his nickname)
"A Solution" to car jams
Context: i am in Europe so might be irrelevant to US.
I was thinking : we already have a usable solution to traffic jams. It's called parking lots, as the ones in airports. You drop your car, then you take public transport to go anywhere. So imagine doing the same, but on daily basis. Build many such parking spots outside of the city , irrigate with public transport, make the price reasonable for daily usage (fuck you Charles de Gaulle Airport and your 14€/day fee). Boom, reduces your traffic by X% every morning.
As someone who drives regularly from Reims to Paris, I d be glad if such option existed, so I wouldn't have to drive on Périphérique.
The two reasons I think it's not used is "planning" and "politicians". The latter isn't good at former.

what are the chances of irreparable damage due to obstructed blood circulation during sleep?
explanation : my bed is too short (or I am too long). so I somehow slept with my feet in the wood bed frame . it's been 2 days, I still can't feel that part of my feet, when I touch it i feel a distant, needle- like sensation :(
