Hey I’m in the same journey as you right now! I bought a Brother sewing machine for like $120 at Costco of all places. It works well and has like 20ish patterns it can do. I would also check out your local library of they have a beginner sewing class.

They learned nothing from the NFT/“Metaverse” hype cycle, but a century of hindsight might help. There’s always going to be that golden goose that can make you insanely rich based on vague bullshit a lot of people don’t fully understand.

I think Nix is better used for things like servers instead of a daily driver PC. Having to fuck with config files for my laptop/desktop would be a nightmare that I refuse to go through. I’ve been playing with Nix on a home server and I’m loving it for that. With a limited scope on what actually needs to be installed it makes managing the configs possible.

These prediction markets need to be outlawed.

I was going to comment that this reads like someone who hasn’t interacted with sign languages before, but I totally see where they are coming from. I only really have experience with ASL (and that is 1 semester in college), but I would imagine most if not all sign languages do a lot more than just finger-spelling.

I thought voluntary scanning was already on the books (this is what I gathered from the article)? What makes this version different?

Does it show I’ve never used an atomic distro before?

I’m sorry to say this, but switching distros would be the better option. Bazzite locks down a lot of parts to ensure it works for games. There’s ways around it, but the effort is so much more compared to any other popular distro. Plenty of distros either come with KDE or have a version that has KDE.

I like to deal in absolutes when it comes to not psyching myself out from doing things. It very much is a mind game and also could be me coping with my social anxiety. If you’re able to medicate your ADHD take some time while you’re on your meds to make definitive plans (where you’re going and what time). It has helped me tremendously.

Just today I said I was going to go to a few select places with a definitive start and end point. I did have to remove some places cause I ended up having conversations with people that kept me somewhere longer than expected, but that's a good reason to not follow through on my general plans.

I’ve heard anecdotal evidence that the anti-malaria medication the US military uses that cause people to have recurring nightmares. If you’re taking a medicine that is supposed to effect the brain I don’t see any reason why it couldn’t effect your dreams.

Ah that would explain why I didn’t know. I have next to no experience with Apple devices.

Well it does depend on your exact use case, but using a proper database is usually the better option for production. Now if this is just some little service you made for yourself use whatever you want.

Wait is APFS a new file system than NTFS? Guess I’m too busy on my Tiktoks and Nintendos to keep up to date

Sounds like a low quality one then. I’ve had zero issues with mine at home and work (used them for years), so I’m adding this brand to my avoid list.

What distro of Linux did you install on the laptop? I’ve had no luck getting wine to work on Fedora, but my desktop is running Bazzite which is based on the steam deck OS and I’m games run great (sometimes with tweaking required).

I’m ignoring you’re requirements and am gonna suggest you use GIMP instead. In all seriousness, you may want to look into a dual boot situation where you have Windows in a partition just big enough to do all the work you need to do. You could also look at VMs, but I’m not sure how well they would play with something that is resource hungry like Adobe products.

And I have learned that those are just KDE’s default wallpapers. I assumed that the background was provided by the distro not the DE.

I only down voted your original comment to help you with your penance. I hope you understand.

I’m assuming they’re oversimplifying the unit of maH to just hours, but who knows without a sheet of the specs of one of these batteries.

For gaming tasks there’s loads of options though. If you don’t want to swap OSes you have Steam’s Proton and Codeweaver’s Crossover that do most of the complex stuff for you. For the stuff you have to deal with I’ve been able to tweak it all from GUIs instead of needing to edit a file somewhere. Gaming on Linux has come a long way, and I’ve even switched off of Windows fully I’m that confident in it. Still have to do more tweaking than Windows, but it’s no where near as bad as it was.
