I once heard that some printers print (almost) invisible yellow dots on pages, containing data which helps authority track down whoever printed the page. That might be a risk if the data is really sensitive.

Automated TPM2 LUKS setup might be the one thing that can get me to switch from Fedora to OpenSUSE.

The only thing I really miss about visual studio is the automatic profiler. Everything else just felt archaic, bloated, slow, and unintuitive. Adding one line in cmake often does the same thing as clicking through five submenus which never once got updated since 2012.

If only psychiatrists didn’t do literally everything in their power to make getting an appointment as hard as possible for people who have ADHD. Same goes for social anxiety.

SpaceX has loads of capable engineers. If NASA gets a massive budget increase, they need to draw from that pool of talent.

Discord sure does feel like a 0.0.x version

Even if meth was chemically identical to ADHD meds, the argument still wouldn’t hold. Anything that lessens people’s symptoms without creating even more problems can be a medication.

Disabling it entirely is possible, but I want to keep the encryption and set a proper password for it instead of the stupidly long recovery key. That and similar features seem to be locked behind the pro version.

I can’t even adjust bitlocker settings on my laptop’s windows 11 home Installation…

The WordPress bots really are a bad problem. To stop them from finding my stuff, I always put my homelab sites on an obscure subdomain, and only list a wildcard entry on DNS, but that only really works for sites which should never be indexed by a crawler.

I use Fedora KDE, and I don’t think ive ever seen crashes that bad on my system (AMD CPU and GPU). I used to have a small problem with RADV crashing during video playback, but that solved itself after a few updates.

I wish I could delete that partition for good, but my computer grqphics professor forces me to write code for DirectX instead of Vulkan.

No self-respecting UI designer would ever want to work on that dinosaur of a codebase. The GIMP team is simply unable to do what Blender did, even if they made the UI their number one priority.

Isn’t C just wonderful?

I always try to avoid these, unless the application I’m installing has it’s own package management functionality, like Rustup or Nix. Everything else should be handled by the system package manager.

I could actually see myself contributing to Rust kernel code. C code has always been impossible for me to understand, but the Rust part seems to have a more understandable structure

I will believe you if you show me a credible source which proves your claim

My anxiety, depression, and executive dysfunction prevent me from talking to a therapist and getting a diagnosis. I am so sick of this…

You might have issues with permissions for serial ports on some distros, but there are loads of easy to follow guides for that. Linux definitely handles them better than windows though. I never had issues where they just stop working like on Windows.
