I agree that this is how it should be taught. I wasn’t taught it until high school. And even then it was by a university student who came to our physics class to talk to us about the kinds of things we could expect in university. :p

I’m in Canada btw.

Below the frame looks like to me.

I came here to say this. I don’t really do networking so I don’t have much care for this issue, but the clarity of the explanation was enjoyable. Plus I learned a couple of little things too.

Disorder - Chiasm

There’s different ways to interpret these, but given the topic here I’ve found another one.

I just finished a book called How to keep house while drowning by KC Davis. It’s written for people with ADHD, autism, ptsd, handicapped, etc. anyone with challenges to getting things done, and this is one of the big themes in it, basically how to be kind to yourself. But there are lots of angles and tips and topics in there. Even witten in short, easy to read chapters. Should check it out.

It’s not bad, but personally I prefer to keep my task bar separate and horizontal, which I don’t think would work with this. Plus my ultra-wide would make it more work to reach than the top and bottom.

I’d post my desktop but it’s been getting so buggy lately. Task bar flickering, widgets getting squished. But I can’t even look into those yet because I’m trying to figure out why my desktop sessions aren’t being saved or restored anymore. Is this just life using Tumbleweed?

I love the idea and hope it will work out great, so of course I’ll join. I also have some niggling doubts but they may not be logically well founded. It certainly worth trying.

First distro I got to work was LibraNet. Easy to set up and use, ran by a father-son team. Died when the father passed away. 😥

And this is how politicians manage to confuse people by conflating politics with economics, which are two different scales. You can be an economic leftist (say by supporting health care) without being an authoritarian. Same with the right.

A little bit better controls and stuff too, but yeah, the story, characters, unit customization, etc. was all top-notch.

You mean Civilization: Call to Power. The unit was called the Eco Ranger. And they did make a sequel to it, called Call to Power 2. In some ways it was better, some worse. That being said, CTP1 is my favorite civ of all time (not counting SMAC). They should definitely make another sequel if they can keep the stuff that made it great. Kills me that I can’t get a modern working version of the original somewhere.

Classic Scylla and Charybdis. Good luck on your odyssey.

The people that have problems with Windows and have to ask for help, shouldn’t be using Linux because it’ll confuse the poor souls even further.

My mother got so fed up with her windows problems that she asked me to put Linux on her computer. While she still had problems after that, she found them manageable and was happy with it ever since.

The people that know exactly how to configure and use Windows with zero problems have no need to use Linux

Nobody has zero problems with either os. The difference is whether you want to deal with problems that are just technical, or due to incompetence and profit motive.

That was amazing. Wow. I mean, I knew that google was bad but, damn.

I was surprised to learn recently that people are still making new screen savers for it.

…library… Alexandria…

Yes, I usually watch tv or a movie in bed and it also has to be something I’ve seen before so I’m not kept awake wanting to see what happens next. Also it has to be not too funny, not too sad, or make me just too happy to see, etc. Interesting enough for me to want to watch it at all, boring enough for me to fall asleep quickly. It can be tricky sometimes.

I use one of those sleep masks with the built-in earphones to listen to different kinds of music and/or rain and thunder. Oddly I tend to like creepy and scary music or ambiance.

It would be easy enough to put a toggle in the settings for a ‘classic’ mode. I can see him doing that.

But yeah, that is the central hub that everything goes thru

Does vpn help with this?
