But sshfs also works across the internet…quick and dirty file access from anywhere in the world. If you can SSH to a machine, you can get a mountable file system.

Also samba can’t distinguish between /foo/ and /Foo/ which is a pretty small issue… except when it isn’t.

I used to run Ubuntu, but started liking it less and less.

After jumping around for a while, I settled on Mint. It is really nice, stable and easy to use for beginners, but everything is there for advanced users also.

There are the great walks

But then there are places like Sanctuary mountain

So many options, it really depends on what you want.

What are people doing with their laptops, mine never break, except one time when I knocked a cup of water into one in 2005.

My latest one, Asus Zenbook is already 3 years old and no issues. Has a dent in the top cover where a nurse kicked my bag when I was in hospital.

My previous one, a dell Inspiron which my 9yo has had for 2 years, is 6 years old, he is not gentle.

Previous to that, I had a work supplied Alienware that lasted 7 years, I traveled internationally with that one quite a few times.

Not sure if I’m lucky, or more careful than average. But I hear about “build quality” issues a lot in internet posts. I’ve just never seen it in the wild…

Note: all ran/run various flavours of Linux.

If you decide to pick up the series, check out the reading order guide, I would personally go with sub series first and not chronological.

The City Watch or Witches are a great place to start.

I’m just using gadget bridge now, most of the original functionality is gone. I can’t be arsed jumping through the hoops to install the original pebble app on my phone.

I asked my partner if she wanted a new pebble, she has a nice little Garmin, her response:

I do like my Garmin in terms of a watch and the feel but the app is shit

Funny how she lost her last one:

Her strap broke on the pebble time, my (at the time) 15 month old saw it on the bench, and asked why she wasn’t wearing it. She said it is broken, a few days later she was going to get a new strap and the watch was gone. The 15 month old, had thrown it in the bin…rubbish day had already happened.

It has the screen tearing issue, which can’t be fixed because it is one of the original ones which are glued together.

I have to have it on the analogue watch face so the screen refreshes every second. But it has outlasted the 4 other watches I tried.

I am wearing my OG Kickstarter Pebble right now, 12 years and still getting 8 days battery out of it.

I think I will be getting a new Core Time 2

Edit: added picture

I believe it is called Liquid democracy

Take another moment to realize how shit Paw Patrol is.

1. Not challenging, has clear cut good/bad dynamic. Bluey doesn’t have “bad guys”
2. PP is fairly inclusive.
3. Almost not emotional depth, everyone is always in a good mood.
4. Started off fairly grounded, but then power scaling for no reason.
5. Repetitive and boring.
6. What the fuck is up with dogs being intelligent enough to do the PP things, but also being subservient to humans? The whole dynamic is so fucked, Bluey doesn’t have humans at all.

I only compare them because the are both dog based kids shows. But PP sucks

I kinda hate Poe’s law

In NZ if the bond is not lodged with the tenancy tribunal within a couple of weeks, the LL is in serious trouble.

Na, being 40 is fine. I’m 45, eat well and get a little exercise. I am healthier than I was in my 20’s, I have more stamina and I think more clearly.

Perfect response, how to show an AI sweating…

Just remember folks, those 2007 people are able to vote now.

Ok, now we have AGI.

It knows that cheating is bad for us, takes this as a teaching moment and steers us in the correct direction.

Have you tried spaced repetition?

Anki is a tool for this specific purpose.

Yep, infinity is not a defined number.

1/0=?..how many times does 0 fit into 1?
