Ah might be right. I believe the one side hinge replacement netted you a new display cable, not a new antenna now that I think of it.

[-] boonhet@lemm.ee 2 points 20 hours ago

Not just an uninitiated person. I had done thousands and still occasionally severed them.

I believe in this model the antenna is replacable though?

It's not just Lemmy doom-scrolling though.

Here's an article about the upcoming US election in my native country's national publication. There are others, I literally just searched for Trump on the front page.

This is not a publication trying to sell you doom and gloom either, they're the least biased, most factual publication around these parts. Required by law to not hold a bias and also nationalized so there's no profit motive for ragebait.

The US election is just considered important in many parts of the world. And to be fair, with the US being extremely important to NATO and Trump wanting to be done with NATO, aaaand many eastern-european countries being very much dependent on NATO to continue existing... You can see how Trump being elected could potentially affect tens if not hundreds of millions of people outside the US too.

That sauce was actually good though. The WcNuggets may have been your regular ol' McNuggets, but damn that sauce was good

The Hu at this point might be more famous than the country they're from (which to be fair, isn't THAT obscure, but how often DO you think of Mongolia?)

Fun fact, doing this could create a monetary liability far in excess of the value of your home and property.

It's also not going to be particularly healthy drinking if your home has its own well rather than being on city water. Which where I live, is very common for detached homes.

Just look at the state of the USA with 28% immigrant population.

Which STILL has the 6th highest GDP per capita (10th if you count tax-haven microstates and overseas territories).

Centuries of mass immigration built the US economy. Y'all are acting like economics is all zero-sum and more people = everyone is poorer, but the amount of jobs doesn't stay constant as the amount of people increases. The US always had an influx of immigrants to fuel the ever-growing economic machine.

There's plenty of reasons why a lot of people in the US can't afford to live in cities, etc. None of it is because of immigration, it's mostly corporate greed and stupid zoning laws.

Newer Samsungs (at least 2019, maybe even older) have a microphone in the remote. It's opt-in to give it that permission (you have to agree to a bunch of legalese), but it being Samsung, I just assume they're listening anyway.

Huh, I just went to the website to try and it worked for me

Might be true for people buying their own WiFi routers.

Which already isn't most consumers, because most people use what their ISP gives them.

Securom has been cracked long ago yeah. I believe it was SafeDisc or StarForce that made things hella weird in a cracked game, but that was bypassed by mounting the CD back then and now I think the cracks work too

I'm sure many of you are familiar with the issue of making excuses for everything. I don't just mean excusing your unfinished chores by saying "I have ADHD", I mean excuses and fabrications in general - at work, you might say you're nearly finished with a project, but really you're halfway done at best, at home you might say you couldn't start the dishwasher because of how angry your pregnant wife was at you for choosing the wrong program on the washing machine, so you were scared to start the dishwasher - fully ignoring the fact that you were supposed to start the dishwasher BEFORE even being confronted about the washing machine. The last one is a stupid example, but it happened an hour ago and it's a pattern I hate about myself.

If you've had a similar issue and identified it, what has helped you improve yourself? I may never be perfect to the point I'll get everything done that I need to, but I'd like to at least stop making stupid excuses that just bring up fights that could've been avoided.

Getting GPU acceleration working is a common task for those of us running Plex or Jellyfin. There is not much documentation for getting the NVIDIA container stack to work with Podman, even less on Gentoo, plus there have been a lot of changes to NVIDIA's container toolkit lately.

I have been fighting with Podman for a while now and just recently got it working 1:1 with my Docker setup. Gentoo may not be the most popular or easy to use distro but I documented it in case some poor soul runs across it searching the web.

Feel free to poke holes in it or leave feedback.

And why do you prefer it over other distros?

There was already a Gentoo community on Lemmy, however it hasn't had any activity in 2 years and since Lemmy's popularity has exploded in recent days, I figured it might be time for a new one with active moderation.

Anyone reading this likely already knows what Gentoo is, but on the off-chance that someone completely unfamiliar with Gentoo clicks on this thread, here's a quick primer. Gentoo Linux is essentially a meta-distribution. You're given a package manager (Portage) that builds your packages from source, and some useful command line utilities. Other than that, you get your choice of everything - systemd or OpenRC? X11 or Wayland? Gnome, KDE or some other desktop manager? Or none at all? All up to you. Now of course, Arch provides you the same freedom of choice, but Gentoo's party trick is the local compilation - you can have the compiler optimize everything for your particular CPU's instruction set, or just leave out features you don't need in some programs.

Paistab, et EURIBORi tõus ja kõrged kinnisvarahinnad on turuga 1-0 teinud. Isiklikult loodan, et nüüd tuleb mõningat hinnalangust - hinnad on juba naeruväärselt kõrgeks läinud Eesti palgataseme kohta. Arvatavasti hakkavad ka välja võetud teise samba rahad inimestel otsa saama, need olid suure tõenäosusega suures ostuhulluses ja hinnatõusus tähtsal kohal.

Paistab, et Eestis hakkab jälle poliitiliselt huvitavaks minema. Isiklikult ma ei usu, et nad hääled kokku saavad ja ma ei kujuta ette kes uueks peaministriks saaks, aga kõik on võimalik.
