That's the "worse"!

Also 45%? Are we looking at the same image? If you dumped those shot glasses of sugar into those yogurt cups empty, the cups would still be close to empty, not half full...

I have literally never once added a single granule of sugar to a pasta sauce. Heat and time on the stove are the only 2 things required to balance tomato acidity, and even this can be cheated with tomato paste. If you are putting sugar in pasta sauce, you don't now how to cook pasta sauce. It's shocking that your comment has upvotes...

as we evolved

In the last 12,000 years since the invention of agriculture? Barely. People, exactly like yourself, have been walking around for 250,000 years. This is all brand new.

Added sugar will be granulated sugar (or worse)

Both yogurt and pasta sauce are extremely easy to make from scratch, and sugar doesn't belong as an ingredient in either. Yogurt literally makes itself. Stop buying processed foods that are designed by teams of people to be addictive?

I don't know why you're being voted down... dude gave his health and years to substance abuse

with almost nothing else

Bruh my translucent themed terminal showing neofetch output is clearly right there, come on.

I just use JWST images as my wallpaper.

They don't have to be perfect, just better than proprietary alternatives.

I believe you could use qemu for 64-bit emulation on a 32-bit system

Lol cars last more than "a few years", my current vehicle is 20 years old. I'll easily get another 150,000 miles out of it, probably more. I already have a crate motor picked out to swap in when the engine finally dies. Or I could just "upgrade" to a newer year and still be non-networked.

Now I'm being a little silly, but at this rate of climate change acceleration, I'm starting to bet that my current vehicle is going to outlive capitalism anyway.

Yeah, so the thing is, any amount of trust that I had has already been completely destroyed. "We don't do it anymore because it's illegal, trust me bro" isn't going to cut it. Does the bill include mandatory prison time for executives for violations, or just cost-of-doing-business fines? Will this be enforced by a government regulatory body that is not literally outnumbered 20:1 by car manufacturer lawyers?

If the car has any kind of network capabilities and 100% of the car's software is not open source, I'm not buying it. Period.

This bill would not need to exist if cars were FOSS, or if cars were non-networked. Those are the only 2 solutions that I will accept. This bill is worthless to me.

What about extreme violations of privacy? Let me know when that is "out", too.

In order to change the 2 party system, we require ranked choice voting. First-past-the-post voting only works when selecting between 2 choices.

It is important for us to remember the name "Steven Cheung" and the names of all those who enable and defend this kind of violent rhetoric in an official capacity. Politically motivated violence is the definition of "terrorism".

A rational and moral person would resign instead of write this statement. These people are dangerous, and they won't just vanish if Trump loses on election day.

Here's his picture, from Wikipedia:

Would those who down-vote like to explain their interpretation of:

I have this piece of glass here, but all we have really over here is the fake news, right? And, to get me, somebody would have to shoot through the fake news. And I don’t mind that so much, ’cause I don’t mind. I don’t mind that

Here is his campaign communications director's official statement on this, if you need some inspiration

He is signaling, quite directly and openly, to his supporters that he would be okay with journalists that he doesn't like being murdered. He was remarking about how he was covered by bulletproof glass from all angles, except from the press section.

I'm not really qualified to give marriage advice, but if you want to hear an opinion based on no real life experience anyway, here goes:

I'd personally just do the box mix for pancakes that she wants, if it is something particular and special for her, as a show of good faith, and cook other meals the way you like, as long as you are the one cooking.

she would rather I just open the mix, add water, and make the food.

Wait, why does she care if you are the one making it?

I make almost all my meals from scratch.

EDIT try this first: Wait, are you still getting an "Operating system not found" like error or just a totally black screen? If totally black screen, maybe it is just the graphical environment that isn't working? When you get to the black screen, give it a minute or so, then hold alt (or ctrl+alt at the same time, try it both ways) while tapping F1-F12 keys one by one and see if you get a TTY login prompt? You may also have to hold an Fn button on the keyboard to change the F1-F12 keys from media-mode to function-mode depending on your BIOS settings. If you do get the prompt, login with your user (nothing will change on screen while you type the password, which can be confusing if you are expecting to see asterisks or something, apologies if you know this but I don't know what Linux experience you have) and then try the commands xinit or startx and you will likely get the opportunity to see an error that is occurring?

EDIT, the following was assuming "Operating system not found" like error:

Hmm... this is weird. I would say try changing the boot mode between UEFI vs legacy BIOS, but I see that you already have...

If possible, can you boot to live Linux USB and use the fdisk/gparted tool to inspect the partitions? If you can post a pic/screenshot of the partition info that might give us some more info.

What steps did you take to manually parition? Is the boot partition formatted with an EXT4 file system?

Updating your BIOS is probably going to be a pain without a Windows system to do it from, because you are at the mercy of laptop manufacturers here, unless it supports updating from a USB

If you are considering a totally different OS (I think this is worth a shot, at least for sanity), I'd recommend trying a Fedora 41 install. EDIT: It looks like Nobara is a better candidate to try instead of plain Fedora, because it comes with proprietary NVIDIA driver, which may help your issue if it is a problem in the graphical environment.

I watch a lot of CNN (I am a progressive), because I like to yell at the TV. You can't convince me that CNN (and all corporate media really) is not just blatant controlled opposition
