Nah, all schools in my home town are Ursuline schools with the one I went to named after Saint Amandina, who was an Ursuline nun, as she was from the part of town the founders of the school were from.

These nuns have a nack for education and healthcare (a crapton of hospitals here are Amandina founded) and if I recall correctly, even founded some liberal arts schools in the US at some point.

From what I understand from the nuns I’ve been in contact with through the years, they aren’t as bookish as Jesuits, but are 100% behind the idea that “if you teach people the whole picture, they will eventually find God” as the sheer wonder of the universe to them can only mean their deity exists.

Rather than the US Christian way of “indoctrinate to the level of making some people incapable of interacting with a modern society, so they have no choice but to believe whatever we believe”.

Does it happen often, other than by a presidential tier candidate, that one single representative tier politician makes multiple districts flip?

That’s how religious classes went in the Catholic school I went to.

Had a legit Catholic priest as my teacher, he educated us in the history and beliefs of all major and quite a few minor religions (and some extinct ones) and not once told us any one of them was better than the other or we should chose Catholicism over anything else.

It was mostly just History class but rather than “what happened” as the context, “what did people believe”.

Not even one of those points will accelerate Linux adoption to being with a decade of the snowballing level at which point it could Dethrone Windows.

You been drinking some absinthe or smoking the ganja-weed?

Or just straight up snorting Flakka

Might we considered there may be a tiny difference in scope between an OS and an app like Armory Crate.

Because they’d need to support it or hire an assload of developers to bugfix and contribute to the projects they include in their distro.

And that’s something those companies don’t like doing.

System76 is a hardware vendor specifically created to cater to the Linux sphere.

I guess they mean “how to make buggy messy often usermade Desktop distributions more popular.”

As Linux itself is insanely popular, it’s everywhere and runs everything. From the vast majority of server and network infrastructure to most phones.

She’s an open white nationalist.

How is her being racist any sort of surprise or questioned?

Looks like this one except that it is sealed on one end and the caddies for the two drives have a cover plate that screws in over a gasket and rubber ring.

I got it in a shop in Hong Kong when I was there for a convention earlier this year. No idea if you can find it online, maybe somewhere like Alibaba.

I have a dual NVMe USB3 caddy that’s smaller than most 2.5 HDD housings with currently 2 2TB drives, you can buy 4 and 8TB nvme drives these days too. I can throw that thing out a car and it won’t care.

And the drives are easily swappable and so are the electronics in the casing.

So no, 2.5" HDD’s still are an utterly dead end of technology.

Especially with these and some other vendors, the USB interface is part of the drive (there’s no SATA port on them), so you can’t swap them or take them out for data recovery. They are HDD tech, which doesn’t do shocks or any other sort of roughhousing, they are slow as shit and use far more power than any NVMe drive.

Because you flex and replug the interface often.

The thing you use to plug your phone, tablet, drives and other things with is very often the failure point unless you break screens or get water in them.

Normally you simply have a HDD drive with a SATA interface in there, so if the USB connector fails, you can still easily recover your data.

With these things, you’re lucky if they even offer the possibility of repairing or recovering the drive.

The more they push to train AI on our shitpostings on social networks, the more I’m certain we’re fucking doomed if their AI ever reaches consciousness.

Thing is, looking at some games, Horizon and Elden Ring being a prime examples, we can have both great games with great graphics.

You don’t really want better games with worse graphics, you want better games that don’t use great graphics as an excuse to bad gameplay.

It’s all about “state rights” until it’s other states with different politics.

Nah, I just keep listening and in the rare case I feel like I may actually have missed something visually, I’ll roll back time on the video.

I pause videos for 1 reason and 1 reason only and that’s to speak to people IRL or online, because I can’t concentrate on a conversation when there’s background noise.

This is just another entry for the list of reason it’s 1001% valid to use adblockers.

I tend to have videos playing on a secondary screen all day long, only to pause them when I get a phonecall or need to talk to someone on Discord or real life.

This is just one more perfectly valid reason to install adblockers.

Quite a few really didn’t.

It’s incredible how delusional some of these people are, like Twitch Moderator being 100% convinced Amouranth is going to bang them if they spend enough in her Onlyfans tier delusional.

They are entirely convinced he shits gold and everything he touches is Star Trek tier tech.

This is major league bullshit tho.

On linux, where the config file for a specific program is, can vary annoyingly greatly depending on what distro you’re using and sometimes the same config file exists in several places and somehow certain parts of the configuration parameters get taken from several of those files, so if you think you’ve found what the actual config file should be and remove the duplicates, suddenly the program uses defaults or doesn’t even work at all.

They have a secondary motherboard that hosts the Slot CPUs, 4 single core P3 Xeons. I also have the Dell equivalent model but it has a bum mainboard.

With those 90’s systems, to get Windows NT to use more than 1 core, you have to get the appropriate Windows version that actually supports them.

Now you can simply upgrade from a 1 to a 32 core CPU and Windows and Linux will pick up the difference and run with it.

In the NT 3.5 and 4 days, you actually had to either do a full reinstall or swap out several parts of the Kernel to get it to work.

Downgrading took the same effort as a multicore windows Kernel ran really badly on a single core system.

As for the Sun Fires, the two models I mentioned tend to be highly available on Ebay in the 100-200 range and are very different inside than an X86 system. You can go for 400 or higher series to get even more difference, but getting a complete one of those can be a challenge.

And yes, the software used on some of these older systems was a challenge in itself, but they aren’t really special, they are pretty much like having different vendors RGB controller softwares on your system, a nuisance that you should try to get past.

For instance, the IBM 5000 series raid cards were simply LSI cards with an IBM branded firmware.

The first thing most people do is put the actual LSI firmware on them so they run decently.
