What is the longest discontinuous marriage?

I’m thinking along the lines of older spouse dies, younger spouse marries someone younger and becomes the older spouse. Then older spouse dies again and repeat. Has anything like this happened in a long enough chain to be significant? Is it so mundane no one cares?

Debian game setup help
  • That's good to know that I am not alone. It would also be good news at least to me that its new and might be something that will get patched out as these system changes become less new. I have toyed with the idea of switching distros just to try more options. However I feel like I am only finally getting my feet wet and don't really want to have to make massive adjustments unless someone tells me all my game problems will go away by just making that simple switch.

  • I completely wiped my computer and did a fresh clean install of Debian to really dive into Linux. It's how I learn best. Looking at the disks they show Ext4. I don't know if that's the counterpart to NTFS for Linux for sure though.

  • Absolutely. Pretty much all of them are normal launch from steam since it seems to be the most linux friendly. I will maybe venture out into other things later. And the main games I am struggling with are things like the finals and other quick fast paced games.

    Debian game setup help

    So I am new to Linux and have made it my main driver in the last month. So far I have been able to solve problems as they come up and I have not had major problems.

    What I need from my machine is a platform to do my mechanical engineering homework, do some hobby programming, and play video games on it. I have been able to get things working for my needs on the first two accounts. I need help setting my computer up for games now.

    My problem is quite a few games I have tried to play slow to a crawl then freeze my entire system. I have checked the protondb website and on games I am having problems with people often are saying that with proton it works out of the box, sometimes even when they are using similar setups as I am. I use an NVIDIA graphics card, which I know is part of the problem, but don’t have the money or means to buy a new graphics card that is comparable for the next while. My drivers are updated and most things “should” work but maybe I am missing some basic setup somewhere to help proton, and steam do their thing. I am willing to go so far as changing my distribution but am stuck right now with the hardware. Any suggestions or thoughts would be greatly appreciated!

    Switch L/R audio Debian/KDE plasma
  • Thank you, I did see that before and tried the first answer’s solution and it didn’t work. This time I tried all separate solutions one at a time and eventually found one that solved it.

    Switch L/R audio Debian/KDE plasma

    My digital audio converter has always switched my audio. On windows I found an application that could do it, but I have been unsuccessful so far on Linux. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • This is an awesome picture. For some reason my brain can’t accept it without more context. I have no idea if OP would be able to answer. But is it off season? Do they clean it during on season? Is it abandoned? If none of those do people ride it like that?

  • Is there a quick ways to see changes in federation?

    Is there a quick way to see what instances are federated with each other? I know for a while (and maybe still are) beehaw and Lemmy.ml defederated from Lemmy.world. Are they still defederated? Is it worthwhile to post on their communities if those users won’t see it?

    Getting started!

    I have grown up around Linux and have had people like my dad use it near me my whole life. I even booted a fedora version once on a very old machine when I was younger as a way for my dad to teach me about Linux. Sadly I never really caught on at the time.

    I am ready to really jump in now. Is there a beginners guide/pros cons comparison for different distribution of Linux? I am also curious about how well things like matlab, solidworks, and Office suit/libra office work in Linux.

    Thank you!

    Is there/will there be a Federated version of most social media?

    Mostly the title, but it would be nice to have more options now that Reddit and Twitter have alternatives. I would love to see a YouTube and ticktock version. Maybe even an instagram as well.
