They aren't suggesting using a grease pencil as a better alternative to a graphite pencil, they are saying that the Russian cosmonauts used grease pencils before moving to a pressurized pen.
You don't need to say "no thanks" to it, no one is suggesting using it. The first comment was ambiguous, but your response to this one is just baffling.
For two and three, even if there weren't a genetic component, the lifestyle and dietary habits of a family absolutely do impact the next generation of the family. Learned behaviors that increase the risk of alcoholism or heart disease absolutely count as "runs in the family". Further, "runs in the family" never meant "everyone in the family absolutely has it".
(None of this directed to the comment I'm replying to, just continuing the thought of the comment.)
Or the third option of they recognize that scientifically Pluto is a dwarf planet and no longer a 'full' planet, but they also anthropomorphize everything to an unhealthy degree and don't want to hurt the feelings of Pluto by saying it isn't a planet anymore
Robin Hood being my favorite Disney movie from my childhood, I did indeed know that! I liked the song before I ever saw the Hampater Dance, so it was a shock to me seeing it the first time
I think they just mean that it builds strength of bones and muscle, and increases flexibility at a time in development when it will have lifelong (generally beneficial) effects
But the plant it came from is.
Christians are also saying that the spliced plant is the same as the donor plant, but the donor plant isn't different retroactively, and they recognize the donor plant as well.
In the same way that a splice off of a plant isn't the same plant... The plant it was spliced off of is the same plant, though.
Isn't it missing 6?
Maybe that works for internal and business communications, but if it is communication externally with clients there are a lot of people that just don't answer their phone. Sometimes it is important stuff, and sometimes there are followup questions.
"XYZ is no longer available. Would you like ABC instead?
How many of ABC would you like?"
Try uninstalling Steam (or keeping track of which one was already installed), and trying one of these methods. It was over a year ago I last did this, so I don't 100% remember which version I ended up using but believe it was the Flatpak version that worked best.
For graphics drivers updating, MintOS has a GUI interface for managing drivers which is actually pretty nice. Try searching for Driver Manager in your system utilities. Other than that, you can manually download official AMD drivers from them directly here. I'd recommend looking into that process for Linux a little more before going that route, as there are a few CLI commands you'll have to use.
As for updating anything, yes it will mostly be done the same way you installed in the first place if you used the CLI. Try the following:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
Which version of Steam did you install? I think that's a quirky one where the Flatpak version works better in some cases, but check out the native if you're already running the Flatpak version (there are pros and cons to each).
9070 XT is new enough that driver issues aren't surprising. Periodically check in for updates drivers, more than you would usually.
I recently played through Cyberpunk without any compatibility layers and it worked flawlessly, and I've played Hitman:WoA (I know a different game/version, but closest I had) using only the Proton compatibility. (It runs native, but has some menu issues.)
I bring these up because I was running into similar issues as yours at first when I switched to Linux, and it was all caused by the Steam version I had installed. I switched that, and everything else fell into place.
Best of luck!
When I was younger, maybe 8-10, I was at the beach with my family. I had always been a strong swimmer, we went to this beach fairly often, there were plenty of people around, and always had lifeguards on duty. It wasn't stormy or bad weather at all.
I was swimming on my own when I got stuck in the undertow of the waves. I remember getting pulled back about 6 feet underwater before I was able to surface again. By that point, I was hit by the next wave, knocking me over and back into the undertow. This repeated for what felt like an hour but was probably only around 5 minutes, maybe 10. I was anxiously looking for lifeguards and trying to signal for help anytime I was on the surface, but no one ever noticed me.
My grandmother had taught me what to do if I ever got stuck in the waves, though, and instead of trying to fight the current I just started riding it and swimming parallel to the shore. I eventually got back to the beach and walked back to my family, and I remember it being so much longer to get back that seemed reasonable.
I was sure I was going to drown, getting sucked out and down under the ocean.
