I disagree. Black Mesa is Black Mesa. It is no Half Life 1. The atmosphere in one is completely lost with Black Mesa. Start with Half Life and play to Alyx. Go back to Mesa for a second way to view 1.

The imgur link is down? That would be bizarre. Opens on my desktop and my phone....

The files are on the google drive in the cloud. I believe there is a package to sync them with local files if I HAD to have them local. Or I suppose a rclone or syncthing script could run locally to do the same thing.

Do you need to disconnect your laptop from the cloud and then sync them later? Is that what I am missing?

I am confused. Google drive has been on my computer for years. I don't use it much, I don't like storing things there. But Dolphin just mounts it and treats it like another drive. Maybe I am missing something? Like when you use a certain application it doesn't see the google drive in the file dialog or something?

Here is a screen cap of the gdrive with folders in it: https://i.imgur.com/DjOc9xx.png

Hey, they finally got tabs for their file manager. It still is crap, but at least it is better.

Linux has been my main computer for 20+ years now. I do have to work with Windows desktops, windows servers, windows Azure services even, and I remote into them or deploy to them. But I don't understand this big Windows 11 is SOOO bad. They are ALL bad. Windows 2000 was the last decent windows as far as I am concerned. WinXP pushed me to Linux full time. 10 is shit, 11 is shit. So it goes.

Your headline is about co-pilot. Do what you have had to do with ALL windows versions when there is something you do not want: never use a "home edition", prefer an enterprise version, and then set a group policy.

Makes me wonder if Trump actually has someone in mind that wouldn't have gotten approved unless he put someone so unlikely that the actual pick gets a pass.

I use Teams on linux on the desktop with no firefox. You might try that.

No, never was a serious post. But that user simply chastising all the one drive users was just as rude really.

[–] westyvw@lemm.ee 0 points 3 days ago

No high horse. At least no higher than "I disable one drive, unlike those pleebs!"

Come on...... I am not being terribly serious, but the logical thing is not disable One Drive, but avoid the bullshit all together if you are going down that road.

These types of posts just remind me how bad people are at using computers.

Ive used windows 11 since it came out.

As a Linux user for over two decades; oh the irony.

I couldn't resist. Don't take it too seriously, although windows 11's DE mashup of Windows, KDE, Gnome, and Mac is sort of hilarious to see.

“its just one glass of wine” can be equally said with “its just a small bump of coke” or “its just half an oxy”

No, not really. Each person is different, set and setting are different, circumstances can be different.

In any case that silly graph you posted was made by:

"opinions and judgment of 15 researchers, doctors, and a journalist. These opinions were exchanged and discussed during a 1-day workshop" ..... "given that it has no input other than the experience and knowledge of the participants involved, it is unlikely to be unbiased"

Although to be fair, the group that made that study now is advocating ways to get medical cannabis and psychedelics to people, which is more or less in line with the graph I suppose.

And the huge shift right by male GenZ people. Reading posts by them specifically today: they felt marginalized by democrats and ignored. They felt like Maga cared about them, and they could belong in the Republican party. And some of them simply wanted revenge and to feel powerful.

Now this isn't everyone, but I gotta say:

WTF are you doing thinking about feelings? And fitting in? Look at the damn effects your choice is going to make based on "feelings". That group is going to lose consumer protection, worker protection and safety, medical coverage, relief on college tuition, housing subsidies, debt relief, small business loans. What they gain is higher prices, worse infrastructure, and possibly the nastiest thing of al:l the direct path of their income going to the wealthiest people and perpetuating generational wealth for the very few.

Because they wanted to "feel" like they were seen and heard as men. You got played!

 

I really only listen to Audio, I don't see myself ever watching the video so I guess it wont matter much to me. Others might like seeing the video?

 

Also, whats with the Donut as the logo? Did I miss something?

 

I tried several models, several prompts, and the results have been surprisingly bizarre. I also was surprised there is no JR Bob Dobbs recognition. All I wanted was a classic 1950's TV salesman.

 

I know how to turn off the notifications, but Plex should not nag me to rate things I have watched.

 

Today we have Roosevelt Stadium, Jersey city, NJ

A SBD and a Matrix is available, and the complete video.

Saw this on the TIGDH site, passed it on to here!

 

Just saying.

 

Lol at the JamBands headline. Was this show "lost"? Looks like there are 4 traded shows to choose from on Relisten alone....

Ah the headlines...... It is a good show... not Brents first as this article alludes to.

 

I have configured buckets and synced three joplin instances. One time it lasted a month. Another lasted a day. The most common error is *Got Metadata for Path but could not fetch content. * Anyone have any tips or tricks to getting this to work? I sure like concept, the best place to sync for me. And yes I can see the markdown file in the bucket so.....

 

I was out of country for the past month. I have access to two monitors, and I brought a keyboard, wireless mouse, and a small JBL speaker. It has been a pretty good experience. I have edited documents, images, and created PDF's. I can connect to jobs that require windows with a web browser to Azure Virtual Desktop. I have streamed live events, worked on my home servers, and it is always snappier than a windows machine. With a click I am back in handheld gaming mode playing SNES games, or Elden Ring.
