He sounds extremely abusive.

What does this have to do with maturity? The post didn't even seem like it came from insecurity, merely curiosity.

There's a linguistic shift happening where people tend to not use periods in short form communications (sms, dms, etc..). So older people who may not be as plugged in to the youth culture sill use them. So it only makes sense someone would be seen as older if they did.

E: avoiding certain wording. Nothing substantive.

I mean, living in the woods is a great way of figuring out just how much or how little you actually value a social life.

More than previously thought was the answer for me.

Yeah they beamed with pride when asked about their work. They were so observant and laser focused and we hit the mark every time while they were here. It was pretty obvious they'd make waves when they quit. Still, no one expected it.

It's friction with the air.

You've experienced a strong guest of wind, now multiply that by 700x. At some point the temperature of the air is meaningless. The impact of you on those air particles gives them soo much energy they get white hot and radiate heat as energy, thereby heating you up. Like standing next to a fire.

No. Jumping forward increases your elevation at the far orbit. Jumping back decreases it. But you'd end up back on where you jumped in one orbit either way.

The desktop environment is just the graphical interface. The OS doesn't handle the GUI(not directly), some people run Linux without a GUI at all, opting for life in the command line. (Don't do that) Plasma is just a flavor of it that looks more windows like (but customizable beyond a windows user's wildest imagination). Gnome looks more Mac like.

You might run across the term Compositor, this sits between the OS and the DE. IT handles graphical input(mouse, game controllers) and display. Wayland is newer with modern features, Xorg is technically more reliable but legacy and missing some modern elements. You don't have to worry about this unless it comes up in a prompt when you install your distro. If it does, go with the suggested option in the prompt. Otherwise default to Wayland.

That's the fun part, if there's too many signals it all just looks like noise!

Yeah it's a mechanical switch

Honestly if the only control on the thing was the door switch and a +30s button I'd be soo happy LMAO

Ok. Finally motivated to try OnePace! Also accepted i just don't like subs. The dub is actually really good too!

Already feels more modern and mature. Think i can watch it now!

All i care about is that it's stupid. After that, 1000W and a +30s button.

My current microwave has a dial with 5deg rotation per minute. So hitting 30s often just turns it off. Was super cheap though so 🤷

Even at 50% efficient 110V on a 20A breaker is 1100W. I only have guesses as to why 700 or 800W is the standard for the cheapest models.

 

I am building a new PC. I want to run Linux and windows on separate SATA 2.5/3.5 SSD hard drives. I need windows (Winn11 Pro) for work. Linux will run all personal computing needs.

I have a horrible history with dual booting Linux and windows (grub getting murdered).

I currently plan to shut down the PC, switch power to the drives, and start up on the other OS.

Can i use a switch which only toggles power to each drive while keeping data cables attached to accomplish this? Will this be possible with windows on one drive?

Is there a smarter solution?
