It really is amazing how I can mess up Linux installs for the weirdest of reasons.

Install arch from scratch on a laptop? Now it either doesn’t go to sleep when you close the laptop or a kernel panick.

Manjaro? Edited the config for the touchpad (of course it’s a random config file that you have to change line by line and read 3 wiki pages for, because Linux) because it doesn’t feel like windows and ran updates from the built in manager within the os. Now it doesn’t boot at all and causes the boot logo to ghost while using windows 10 installed on another partition.

Pop_os? Worked mostly fine, used it for months, broke it only once when using the built in package manager somehow fixed it, but stopped using that laptop and now I can’t boot into it at all.

Not to mention all of the software that partially doesn’t work or work at all. Like, my personal choice for image editing is paint.net, it’s not a useless meme like MS Paint, but also isn’t the equivalent of using a bucket wheel excavator for digging a hole in your backyard like Gimp. It also doesn’t work on Linux at all

My local pizza place (in Japan) puts corn on pineapple pizza.

I might be a degenerate that enjoys pineapple on pizza, but corn is a strong no

Yeah, it’s the floaty feeling, I think that I had installed them, but IIRC you had to configure them by editing a config file and I couldn’t get it to work just right

I guess the Manjaro partition on my dual-boot laptop will finally be woken up for the first time in months

Side note: Anyone got advice on how to make my Synaptics touchpad work the same as it does on windows? That’s like my number 1 pet peve whenever I try Linux on my laptop

Sudoku is my go-to for boring time on the airplane

Because as long as the Russian state exists and can point to their “history” as an empire and use it as an excuse to take over their neighboring countries (like Latvia, the place where I’m from), I won’t be satisfied.

Unfortunately nobody is bombing Moscow yet, so anything that isolates and makes the population more angry and can hopefully topple the government is a good thing in my book

RS50 is such a fun bike, and I know the pain with the carb, I have to ride mine uphill, also, just replaced the 12mm flat slide carb with a 17.5mm round slide, runs quite nice

That’s why I kinda like my carburated 2-stroke motorcycle.

Needs just 3 wires from the engine to work and 1 to shut it off. Weighs just around 100kg and will propel me to 90km/h with just a 50cc cylinder.

Not to mention the smoke, sound, and the narrow powerband, just love that feeling.

Not to mention just randomly scrolling in public and whoops, it’s a random porn clip brought to you by lemmynsfw

For me it’s kinda unfocused, like I can imagine a ball on a table and someone giving it a push.

Only after I force myself to think a bit harder about it, I get a regular square wooden table in a kitchen-esque room, with a silver pinball on it, while a guy approaches it and gives it a small push, at the same time, the post didn’t ask me to imagine the ball falling off the table, so the ball barely rolls at all.

Hearing the Top Gear trio being referred to as just “some TV presenters” feels weird

That’s me

That’s what my phone is set at 24/7, the only time it makes a noise from the speakers is when the alarm goes off in the morning.

I would argue that mentioning race at all is what makes it more of a racist thing.

Like, why say that woman was black at all then?

But it’s all just semantics, it’s a fake story that has both aspects in it, and it doesn’t really matter if it’s one or the other

That just depends on the order of attributes you prefer to use to refer to a person.

For me gender or age would usually come first rather than race

Specific forums for certain things are still the best.

I have an Aprilia motorcycle from 1999, and the Aprilia forum has 20 years of info, discussion, and advice on that specific motorcycle.

It is also a bit surreal seeing someone reply to my question and see that they joined the forum itself back when I was less that 1 years old.

Meanwhile me with a 1500 YouTube music video playlist of liked music and a pile of CDs that I bought used, featuring the artists in that playlist

I don’t remember any of the versions of this story involving money.

Nobody ever mentioned where the materials came from, it was just two dumbasses who decided to build their houses out of inferior materials

Say that under any thread about any billionaire and watch your comment get double digit downvotes

It’s not? I can see it on my phone just fine
