Bazzite. It was that specific app that couldn’t open the file. I can’t remember the name of the app Ocu-something I think. Dolphin was able to browse my server just fine. Honestly never had an issue like that on Linux before. I found a fix for it by going in and changing a config file for how the app handles files from SMB but expecting people to have to do that just for opening shit from a network share is just the kind of things that make using Linux annoying. I’m still going to work at it because Windows is bad too but they’re not in competition because of how great Linux is. It’s because windows is getting worse.

Edit: This was the specific issue: https://gist.github.com/NonLogicalDev/f518e93aa19d3fc620bae15d388cba58

It wasn’t the website. The pdf app wouldn’t open files off my file server because it didn’t know how to handle the smb prefix in the file path.

At the moment the issues I’m dealing with are CAD No Fusion 360 on Linux and FreeCAD has ran like shit on every system I’ve tried and getting my peripherals working, mainly my Logitech stuff, mainly my g602 mouse but I also have a headset from them that doesn’t work properly and from what I understand can’t work properly on Linux. Another problem I had a few weeks ago was something killed the secure boot enrollment on my Linux os and it refused to boot at all or even get into repair mode even after I disabled secure boot. I had to completely reinstall it and start over which is not sustainable if that reoccurs with any sort of frequency.

At some point you’ll realize you haven’t used your Windows drive in a year and it will be a lot easier to make the decision to finally erase it all and repurpose the drive for something else.

It hasn’t been a year yet but so far it’s been the other way around for me (except for the VM I run my piracy stuff on and my media server, that’s going great). I have been running into constant issues and annoyances trying to use Linux as my daily driver. Maybe if all I cared about was streaming content and gaming it would be fine but I couldn’t even get through my taxes without having to switch back.

Maybe not 100% because I am the sum of my experiences but I can choose to act against my impulses if I want to.

RIP my parity partition that one time.

Additionally, no matter what any government has done so far, people are having less kids and no single country has been able to improve that. So there’s something going on and we don’t know what it is.

It’s not a mystery. People can barely afford themselves and kids are expensive as fuck and interfere with having a successful career(especially for women) so they’re having less of them.

He should excommunicate them all.

I tried having it on my new laptop for a bit. It took like a week for Windows to kill the secure boot key for my Linux partition. Even after I disabled secure boot I couldn’t get it to boot up so I had to reinstall. Just left it turned off afterwards.

How long does it take to break even from the pollution and electricity spent to make and install these?

And this is supposed to be a tech school…

then yes you should have as much financial separation as possible.

Yeah that’s a thing people in abusive households frequently have.

Gundam Wing. Looking at it objectively it’s one of the weaker Gundam series but something about it just fires up all my neurons.

It’s saying sometimes people need to hear something that will hurt them in order to get better. Which is true but a lot of people take that as a green light to be an asshole when they find someone who is “wrong”.

I honestly could not tell. It’s completely believable that something this stupid would exist. Like I didn’t necessarily believe it was but I wasn’t confident in either direction.

Yea I’m not using anything that requires an app. If there’s an app I can host myself I might use it but I won’t rely on anything that can’t be controlled manually. The place I rent now has ceiling fans that are controlled by remote and I fucking hate them. It uses a shitty up/down button that has a horrendous delay or both the light and fan. It’s all the frustration of using a pull chain with no improvement. I can’t even figure out how to get it to switch directions for winter.

I don’t currently have one but they’re in the running to replace my current phone since most of the android market has been enshitified to be just as bad as them.

I was randomly assaulted for no reason all the time when I was in school just because I was short and quiet. I wasn’t instigating shit. I kept to myself as much as possible. Fuck you and your terrible opinion.

As my dad said. You’re going to get in trouble either way. You might as well fight back.

Our IT sent out a test once that was a fake “someone sent you this document on teams” link and I fell for it assuming it was another stupid microsoft workflow for sharing documents. The only reason I didn’t actually hit the log in part that would have got me reported was because I didn’t care enough about whatever it was that was supposedly sent to me.
