Goalposts in transit.

I think the point is the number of times someone is having such an issue, and those people show up to proclaim they’ve never had such problems as if it’s helpful. So, at least you can recognize it’s not.

Barely. Apparently need to ask for double onion.

At this point, I’m half expecting someone to announce a “linux_circlejerk” community for all those posts being complained about today, to balance out the already newly formed “gnulinux” community where none of it should go.

I’ve been trying to think of a time when I had good customer service from them and came up with nothing so far.

yep

what kind of shitty service is that

it’s eBay

should be

uh huh

Yes, that’s why I said “not necessarily.”

Not necessarily, I installed LMDE 6 and still needed to manually install the wifi drivers.

Contrary to what some have said here, it’s not unusual to have to download and manually install the wifi driver for Mint. It’s even mentioned as the one extra step in a cartoon comparing the time it takes to install three different distros. I had to do this for two different laptops.

OmanMkII already provided the link for intel, but here it is again:

There’s a number of cracked games now with online play enabled, you just need to make a burner Steam (etc) account to use it so your main one with purchases doesn’t get nuked if they catch on.

They should get comfortable with me downloading cracked versions of their games.

On iOS, Tusker (for Mastodon and Pixelfed) has settings to set the default for composing and replying:

edit: also note that you can set your pixelfed account to private in general, but I think you have to check that box from the website interface. None of the apps I have include that setting.

It’s possible you’d risk an aneurysm in our Walmart parking lot.

Should definitely be mentioned that dual booting isn’t nearly the headache if you have separate drives and don’t try to have the boot loaders in the same partition. I have Win10 and its boot area on one ssd, and two distros of linux sharing the boot partition on the second ssd, and there’s been no issues. But there’s a good chance Windows boot gets screwed if you try to put it all on one disk.

Again, sorry I cannot offer a solution. I’m sure it can be fixed, I’ve just never had to figure it out.

Sorry this isn’t an answer to the question, only a general reminder for whoever needs it to always create a disk image backup beforehand using Macrium Reflect or similar, so you can rollback nightmares like this.

No, I still need it for non-linux programs with no suitable alternative.

No, I’m not listing those for anyone to suggest inferior replacements. It’s a fact, not a debate.
