It’s been my experience that SD cards are almost always what causes a failure on a SBC. Given the cost of the screens, i’d probably choose something that could boot off nvme storage. Or at least tape a new, configured SD card to the case of the SBC for when this inevitably happens.

That’s about right for lemmy though isn’t it?

Local ordinances specify minimum space requirements for trees, which may mean that they’re not allowed to be put in certain places. Also, they can cause pedestrian safety issues, as well as Ada compliance problems in confined spaces. This is an easy way to get something green in a place where you would otherwise not see a tree because of a lot of beaurocratic bullshit.

Obviously, you can argue that all that needs to be changed. And you’d be right. And in many places it’s moving that way. But then you also wouldn’t get anything done for quite some time. This is an option where there might be no other viable options at the moment.

No issues currently using pop os. I don’t use the graphical Bluetooth manager, for whatever that’s worth. I wrohe a script that connects and disconnects with bluetoothctl, and I pair and trust devices with bluetoothctl. I use several different headphones.

Occasionally, I have to go into the audio settings to change the destination, or tap a button on my headphones, but that’s about it.

Tiv will handle that on the tty just fine.

I had an update reboot pending and it seems like that got rid of it for me.

Be ready with your camera in case she takes her first unassisted steps then. You may get lucky and be the one who’s there for it.

Also, you might want to bring ear plugs. My kid (same age) has had a rough day with teething and gas and the screaming gets a bit much. You have to watch them way more closely with earplugs in, but it might just save your sanity.

If you hope they won’t do something (immediately crawl off, grab something specific, sneeze a mouthful of food in your face, reach their hand into the poop you’re cleaning off them) they’re totally gonna do it. As soon as it’s physically possible.

Basically as long as you keep her from getting hurt or mentally scarred you’re doing great, and as long as you pay attention you can manage that.

It’s going to mean a lot to them to have a few hours together without a baby around. Try to enjoy it. They grow so quickly, by the time you get a chance to do it again it’ll be completely different.

I feel like people who don’t like the show totally miss what’s going on with it. It’s not realistic. It’s a bunch of people in alien makeup on a completely impractical space station. Some of the acting is corny. Some of the plots are corny. Some of the dialog would be better in the moment if random fans had edited it. But it’s the overall impact that counts.

It’s the visceral reaction to londo and g’Kar, and the way it keeps changing and rearranging. It’s how I still get fucked up thinking about Marcus, or the gropos or brother edward. It’s how i’ve watched the show time after time but i’ve only been able to watch sleeping in the light twice because it’s just too much. Would that scene with John and delenn be so gut wrenchingly painful without the corny acting, and all the heavy handed b plots, and dopey 1990’s future tech that pounds into your head that they’re people just like we are? I don’t think it would.

You’re supposed to see it coming from a mile away. And when it gets there, the character moments hit you with a depth of feeling you’re totally not ready for.

The boxy CRTs and all that, aside from being a byproduct of a lower budget, are supposed to make the setting feel closer to our reality. These aren’t people who have transcended their societal problems. But once they do, they’re not just the people from star trek. They’re something else entirely. The whole point of the show is that sometimes we’re horrible, and we can be so much more than we could possibly imagine. And the same people can be both those things at the same time. It comes down to your own definition of who you are, and what you want.

A lot of people will tell you the first season isn’t worth watching. I’ll admit that the acting is a little cheesier, and there are some episodes that you might think are a little heavy handed… but they set the stage for you to feel what you feel when the things they were exploring in the b plots come back in the main arc of the show. There will absolutely be moments 3 and 4 seasons in where you go ‘oh shit, they set this up in the second episode!’ Because it was heavy handed enough that you will remember it, even thoughbyou didn’t get it at the time.

To an extent, you do have to get over the cheesy acting. I see it more like a play than a show with overly realistic acting. Some of the acting is a tool to get things across. And you know what? I don’t know how well Londo and G’kar would play out without that cheesy background. There hasn’t ever been better character development than those 2.

No, Debian should definitely be the Swiss army knife, and Ubuntu should definitely be the playdoh Swiss army knife.

PDFs might be your sticking point. I’ve not found any software that will handle all the different things you can do with acrobat in an easy way. But I have to heavily modify PDFs from time to time, and you may not have nearly the needs I do.

I’d suggest checking out libre office, and see if you can find a PDF application that satisfies you. The app store on pop os is really good, as is the interface, and if you don’t like tiling window managers, you can turn it off.

Another suggestion is to recognize you’re a novice. If you read something that sounds like a perfect setup, but it’s a little complicated, put it off. You don’t want to get in over your head, because linux distros will not keep you from breaking things. The defaults of any large distribution are a pretty safe bet.

Whoever he ends up with hit the jackpot. I can’t imagine an easier way to make sure someone is happy and fulfilled sexually. Just get yourself a balloon book.

Dunno about darn tough socks, but I have some smart wool socks i’ve been wearing for years and years. No idea what they go for now, because I bought mine over a decade ago, but whatever the cost they are absolutely worth it.

I also knit my own, and it’s the only way i’ve gotten near the same quality and durability, and the cost for that is pretty high, even without considering the time it takes to knit them.

I’ve carried many different knives, and the one I stick with now is an opinel no 8. I find that I use it more than any other one, because it’s particularly well suited to food. Perfect size to cut an Apple or avocado, even a steak, and the wood handle and general look make it pretty non threatening.

I’d guess it’s one of these.

Whaaaaat?

This is excellent advice, and I want to stress that linux on bare metal will let you see just how much better it is. It’ll fly. You really don’t get a sense of how much be there is in windows till you run linux on the same hardware.

You could use a hardware key for ssh with a passphrase protected key. I use a solo key v1 myself. There are even keys that let you enter a pin on the device instead of the computer, so you don’t have to worry about key loggers. And you can set up Sudo to work with a key too.

Btop tells me everything I need to know, and it does it with style.
