A Wikipedia article about floors reminds you of a weird lie you heard one time?

I’m roughly 25 years into using computers daily and never turning them off and I’ve never had or used a desktop that didn’t sleep and wake reliably, either naturally or using the sleep and wake buttons on the keyboard, with both Linux and Windows

Fortunately, Sarah Z is posting a new one next week

What’s the issue with Calibre Web? I add book to shelf on Calibre Web, and hit Sync on my kobo, and the kobo downloads the book and populates it in my library. What’s the thing I’m missing or that’s not working right?

Yeah but that’s why they’re beliefs, and not science

Why does bedrock only work on tablets?

Because it doesn’t?

Open the Start menu, usually

I like that you got a couple downvotes, I guess for calling a large text URL that spans the entire tailgate width and a giant fuckin QR code and the logo for the foundation a billboard? Like it’s not as flashy as a lot of advert wraps but it’s plainly visible from a decent distance, and it’s on a gold cybertruck so I guess it is flashy. I wonder what the opposition to you calling it a billboard is

I go through my tabs weekly on mobile and close any not related to things I’m actively looking at, so it goes down to 3-6 tabs after every clean. It’s been 4 days and my tab count is just showing the ∞ it does when you go over 99

What’s HTMI

I set it once like 6 years ago and forgot it wasn’t something pre-installed and configured until I saw your comment. I was reading through the comments looking for the “you don’t need to do anything, ddclient takes care of it”

I use an Elite Series 2, if that’s the same thing, and the one I’m currently using is the second one I bought because I broke the first. This one has never been paired to a Windows computer, I bought it after I switched to Linux, it paired normally and has just worked

My Xbox controller has just worked on Linux for months now?

Bulk prices are generally cheaper per unit but it’s very, very possible to not be able to bear the upfront cost of a large number of units and be forced by that to spend more money in smaller chunks over a longer time

The joke was obvious, and you even doubled down by suggesting people intentionally go to Bentonville. I appreciated it

Thanks, that was really necessary and greatly added to the conversation.

That which is dead can never die

Hey! I know it’s been a couple weeks but I figured I’d say that I went down to the lobby at 10am just now, and there’s two guys in there right now swapping out the cash reader. There’s the regular restocker doing his job and a second guy with one of the handheld firmware loader things, I’m not sure if it just needs a software change or if he needs to be there to swap the actual slot, but it does look swappable
