What was something you learned too late in life?
  • I agree, but having a teacher that brings the language in a good way is also really important. I had french lessons for 6 years in highschool. I always barely passed and didn't like it. In the final year I got a teacher who taught it in a different manner. Now I like to learn it, and have a Duolingo streak of 658 days. I now have way more of a feeling for the language and don't just immediately implode when trying to translate a sentence.

  • What was something you learned too late in life?
  • I was like you, the transition was not easy, but what helped me was to brush my teeth when I already went to the bathroom to pee. This meant that I rarely brush my teeth at the same time. But I do it every night now. This also helped me reduce my snacking after 20:00. Because I didn't want to snack after brushing my teeth. I convinced myself I was going to do this and ever since I only missed 2 nights. What also helped is using a tracking app where I could check it to "gameify" it.

  • What're some of the dumbest things you've done to yourself in Linux?
  • I was running a Vanilla+ Minecraft server and was wondering why my plugin was not working. I had forgotten to unzip it before uploading it to the Ubuntu server vm and didn't know how to unzip on Linux. So I just unzipped it in windows and re transferred the file. Yaay RSync.

    Otherwise just basic mistakes command in the wrong folder type of stuff.

  • Support: No Sound on internal subwoofer (LFE) Linux Mint

    Hi al, I just did a fresh install of linux mint and I don't have any audio on my internal subwoofers. Dell XPS 9500. I made a post about it on the linux mint forums, which contains more info and "progress" but no luck so far.

    I have already found and set my subwoofers to the internal speakers LFE via HDAJackRetask now I need to have them actually get a signal. I hope one of you amazing peeps is able to help me.

    Edit:

    Okay it has been a productive evening. So from reading this thread on bugzilla.kernel.org it seems that the subwoofers are working and actually are playing audio. The speaker fix seem to have been added somewhere before kernel 5.15 (This is for the 9500, which sets the same quirk as is set for the 9510.) What it currently looks like what the problem is that there is a high pass filter for the tweeters which also get applied to the subwoofers. Which means that the subwoofers are effectively producing no output even tough they are getting an input. I currently have no clue how to mitigate this. The bugzilla.kernel.org thread is really worth reading!
