  • It's entirely okay. I just don't think I'll meet another person who has the scruples, beliefs, or even common interests that I have. It is sad, but that's just how it is sometimes. shrugs

    Thanks for the tip! I left them behind last year, and even though I miss them, they must not feel the same because I still haven't gotten an apology about how they dog piled on me for cracking a joke about RFK being a Trump substitute. Even more funny when I saw that he was joining Trump's cabinet, and still heard no apologies or even acknowledgement that I was right. It's not even about being right, I just don't see how they could take all of those good times we shared together and throw it away for the regime.

    Anyway, thanks for the talk, and I hope you have a beautiful rest of the day! :)

  • I feel like I have the exact opposite scenario. It's other people who don't know how to keep a friendship alive, for me. Like, I can reach out, ask if they want to do something, and either never get anything back or get a "I already had some plans after work to play a game with so and so."

    Mind you, I let this person live with me when they wanted out of the bad situation they were in. I also was there for the "so and so" when their mother passed away. Even before then, I drove that person around because they were an adult and didn't even have their license yet! I drove them to their mother, who was an hour away at a hospital (we live in a small town). I drove them to pick up food and whatnot. I was there for both of them, and never bothered them with any of my issues (because I could handle my own at that time).

    I did all of that for these two people, and yet, somehow, I am the one left behind in the friendship. It's just insulting. So, in my opinion, there are just a lot more people out there than isn't that are just not good people or don't give a fuck about anything other than themselves!

    I just think the modern era, and my way of thinking, don't jive.

  • You are amazing! Thank you for sharing with so much detail. I think this will be what I try next, thank you! :)

  • Hey there! This is my first time using a BTRFS system, so I don’t really know what I’m doing. I just thought I’d ask the community since most of the forums were from a few years ago.

    I was aware of the snapshots but didn’t know I could use those on a completely different SSD to restore. How would I go about researching this? BTRFS snapshots to new SSD?

    Thank you for the reply!

  • Thank you for your reply!

    I have an external enclosure that I was using to have both a Live ISO USB and the old/new SSDs available. I've never used dd before, is there anything that might prevent it from working with BTRFS? I'll look more into it as the day goes on!

  • Have a statue commissioned that will forever hold the sword is from then on a new religion lol

  • As she should. Reminds me of Gary Plauche, and he also did the correct thing.

  • I'm always a little shocked at what my browsing habits prevent from these types of things. Thanks for sharing! I feel a little better about my browsing usage!

  • I left last year around December because I realized how well my Steam Deck ran games. I've dabbled with Linux over 10 years now, but gaming really is the only thing I bought my desktop computer for. It has an NVIDIA GPU in it, so I was a little wary of messing my stuff up by installing openSUSE Tumbleweed, but I had a spare SSD from a laptop that finally gave out on me, and installed that into the desktop.

    Color me surprised when I find out just how much better Linux is that day (and even today!) than it was all those years I had tentatively tried distros like PopOS/Manjaro/Fedora/Debian/ElementaryOS/etc!

    I say this every time I talk about Linux now, but I actually love my computer and being on it again. With Windows, I just wanted it to get the hell out of my way and let me play my damn games (I have a very limited amount of time when I get home from work to do anything I want to do, babysitting my OS is not something I want to do with that limited time)! With openSUSE, I feel totally in control and have my system set up the way I want it to.

    There were some things I definitely had to get used to, seeing as I never had to research issues I was having with Windows (never had a problem in the 20 years I've been using them, EXCEPT for Windows 8. That was a big piece of flaming garbage, as is Windows 11. 7 and 10 were okay for me though).

    Since last year, I have had to login to Windows only to mod my games and move them back over to my Linux SSD (which Linux allows me to pull files from my Windows drive, and is SICK by the way!) and I think maybe play ONE single game because of those mods or A mod. Totally worth it, all said and done!

    With Windows, it feels like I'm stepping into someone else's home. With Linux, it feels like MY home. :-)

  • KDE is the best desktop environment I've ever had the pleasure of using. So much better than Windows at everything I want out of my desktop!

  • Very true. When I first ever installed Linux, it was on an old laptop that I wasn't using for anything serious anyway, so the install process was simple for someone like me, even as a kid. That doesn't mean I knew what I was doing by any means, but that was something that made me pause to try and decipher what all these words meant on the screen. lol

  • No problem! I just wanted to see if I might be helpful in some way! Cheers!

  • Has anyone ever had issues using their AirPods on Linux/Steam Deck? I've had the same pair for over 3-4 years now (Gen 1) and they have always worked on Windows/Linux/Steam Deck. Noise cancellation, transparency, all of it.

    I'm just curious to know someone who has!

  • Hi there! I have a tiny11 ISO that I always use to install Windows on stuff when needed. I've never encountered this issue before. Have you tried using Rufus to put the ISO on the USB? It has options for stuff like that. I can't say how successful they are, as I guess tiny11 does a lot of that itself?

  • Hey there! What I do on Linux is use the Thorium browser to make the Apple Music an app in the OS. It works really well, but does have some weird visual glitches every now and then. I chalk that up to me having an NVIDIA GPU and using Wayland though, so it could work better for you!

    As for lossless, I am not sure on that as I don't have ears that can tell the difference so it has never been something I focused on!

  • Cider also went from an open source project to a closed source project. I stopped using them after that.

  • Excited to see the Linux support too. They've never not worked for me on Linux, but it is nice to see all the options I would expect on the iPhone!

  • He’s also brought podcast bros onto his own podcast which is already a weird thing for my politicians to be doing while elected as an official representative.
