And a big problem we're having is that due to climate change those 1/100 chance events are changing for the worst.
You'd hope so but it aligns way too close to a lot of the "trad wife" types for me to be too sure
At his point for me it's only CAD and Lightroom that keeps a Windows install in my machine
All the games I like run fine on Linux nowadays
Half the fun of fixing my code later is trying to figure out what the hell I was thinking when I wrote my code lol
I've also got to thank you for those guides
I'm going to use the hell out of Udev now that I know it exists
I never knew that was called bash, not sure how I missed the name up to this point lol
And Udev sounds like something I'm going to get a hell of a lot of use out of given my love of Tasker on Android (basically have it set to do specific things when certain triggers occur (like connecting or disconnecting to or from specific Bluetooth devices, reading specific NFC tags, etc)). I just never thought of trying to set something up like that on my desktops.
I'm a bit (maybe a lot) of a noob to Linux
What are Udev rules and bash scripts?
"I'm pepper spraying the water but it won't stop obstructing traffic!"
- Local police probably
And practice the buddy system
We are stronger and safer together
I've currently got a group of a few people coming with me to some of the events this year during pride month
I honestly didn't expect that but once I saw the pic I hoped it was true, and oh man was I pleasantly surprised
Edit: I do hope to find it in the states to at least give it a try. I'm not one to just not try a food item because it sounds odd.
I'd be surprised if there were none
Still going to bring my pride flag to the local parade and celebrate this year though
I ain't going to be afraid to be myself in the face of the bastards who want to take my rights away
I'm queer, I'm here, get used to it.
As the saying goes: if you only have one backup you have zero backups.
How the fuck does Google of all companies manage to accidentally delete that‽
I grew up in the days of network television and local stations. Never had cable or those fancy DVR boxes (or teevo for those who remember). When we wanted to record something we had to know when it was going to be on, then program the VCR, slap a tape in and hope for the best.
I have no patience for ads whatsoever.
When they'd come on back in the day (me being the youngest) I'd be told to holler when the show cam back on.
I block every single ad network wide at home. And now I only watch content without ads via any means I can.
I hate ads with a burning fiery passion.
I'm someone who owns a few guns and even I think owning .50 cal guns is stupid.
The ammo is stupid expensive, it kicks like a cladsdale, and there's nothing you can hunt (legal or otherwise) here that would require it.
You mean evil
And no, they can't stop
Visa is rolling out technology that will allow you to tap your card on your smart device to add it to your wallet. You’ll also be able to tap your card to your phone to confirm a transaction without needing to input any additional information.
So like almost any tap to pay system?
Shit I was doing this stuff with GPay for years.
Within a decade, you’ll likely access all of your cards with one credential and choose which payment method you’d like to use. That includes not just credit and debit cards, but also buy now, pay later options and direct payments from your bank account.
This is just PayPal.
So I've got a bit of color blindness going on (a bit blue and yellow, a bit more red and green (not to mention some colors are painful but that's a different story lol)) and I had a question about editing pictures to show what different colorblindness looks like. My friends keep asking me how I see things and I'd love to show them.
I've been editing pictures for years but I'd say I still have a lot to learn in the color grading and color space departments (not like it's easy for me lol)
Any tips would be greatly appreciated. I primarily use Lightroom but I've been learning Dark Table recently. So either would be fine.

If anyone wants to give an ELI5 or a link to a video that ELI5 I'd be incredibly thankful
I swear that all the stuff I find is like super in depth technical stuff that just loses me in no time flat
I took this pic while on vacation to South East Oregon (specifically a place called Lake Abert) using my Lumix G9 and my 100mm - 300mm lens at the full 300mm and f/5.6.
I was really happy that of all the critters I saw that day this one sat still long enough for me to get a decent shot.
This little bird chilled for quite awhile singing away which was pretty cool.

I took this picture on the last day of a not long enough vacation this month. I was really happy with how the moon had just enough light to give the shape of the mountain some contrast and how the wispy clouds cought the light from various sources.
I took this with my Lumix G9 with a 25mm f/1.7 lens, a 15 second exposure, and the iso set to 1600.
I had taken quite a few shots with the intent of stacking them but those attempts just didn't come out feeling like it did to be there. This shit though captured that feeling IMO.
I can't wait to give My Adams the same treatment later this year.

Seriously a great outlook about fixing things
It's already broke might as well try
Basically how I learned to fix everything I've ever fixed: TVs, game consoles, cars, trucks, appliances of all kinds, etc.
Hell my 75in 4k OLED TV in my living room cost me a grand total of $45 in parts.
President Joe Biden’s plans to deliver widespread student debt relief were dealt a serious blow last year when the Supreme Court struck down his one-time student loan forgiveness program. But he has still managed to cancel more federal student loan debt than any other president.
TLDR: Totalling roughly $144 billion for about 4 million borrows.

A Tumblr post by user homunculus-argument that reads:
Was talking with my therapist about how it's possible to completely lose one's own identity to people-pleasing - when you grow up being constantly preoccupied with concerns about what other people want, and the ideal outcome is always whatever makes everyone else happy, it's possible to simply not learn to know yourself at all. If the only thing you've ever strived for in life is to make everyone else happy, you just never pause to think what you want, or what you would enjoy, independently from anyone else's desires.
As an example of this, I recalled that for the longest time, I just didn't listen to music when I was alone, because the thought never occurred to me. I didn't have my own taste in music, I was fine with listening to whatever the people I was with wanted to listen to, but whose music would I be listening to if I wasn't with anyone else? She thought this was a great observation, and gave me a homework assignment to find a song I like, just on my own and for myself, and show it to her next week.
So I guess my therapist is about to learn about the existence of mongolian folk metal.

After 250 rolls, 1 popped up 27 times. Or roughly 11% of the time.
I did this same test with all 17 D20's I have and 2 D20's from people in my DnD group.
This one was far and away the worst though I had more than I'd like with averages under 10.
Edit:
Personally: Hiking, biking, photography, DnD, and fixing things.
It sounds like a lot (because it is lol) but with ADHD having a group of hobbies I can orbit around (especially if they can overlap (like these ones))can help me avoid diving into too many new hobbies.

It's a clip from a video depicting a red SUV having no traction in the snow to a fun song.
Gormadt @lemmy.blahaj.zone I do a lot of photography and I share it on my deviant art page.
