74·5 days agoThe woman’s car wouldn’t start because of an installed device that makes her pass a breathalyzer (something courts can mandate). Midwestern people are stereotypically very helpful, but the ones from Wisconsin drink a lot, so nobody present could pass the breathalyzer either. The solution was for all the drunk strangers to physically push her car to where it needed to be.

4·6 days agoSome companies sell Linux prebuilts, like System76, but that’s pretty niche for the average person to even know to search for.
Now, if stores like Best Buy had a section for Linux prebuilts, that would reach a lot of people.
I’ve now changed my system interface font to this, and it looks great.
I want to see the outcome now
I’ve never had strong opinions on fonts, but I do like the way this one looks now that you mention it.

Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•Nearly 90% of Windows Games now run on Linux, latest data shows — as Windows 10 dies, gaming on Linux is more viable than everEnglish
11·9 days agoGaming was the missing piece for me for years, and I’m happily gaming on Linux now with little to no hassle.
The biggest annoyance I’ve faced is that discord isn’t auto-detecting some games when streaming to friends, which is such a minor thing.
Can confirm. Sometimes I’ll order one, only for them to go check and come back to say “Oh, I guess we don’t actually have any.”

4·12 days agoI don’t think it is. Searching for it just now, I’m seeing posts from 5 years ago, and AI wasn’t able to generate stuff like this then. I also found an alternative angle. It looks like a genuine restoration project.

Thank you.
Yeah, I actually booted Zorin and started the install process last night, intending to put it on my secondary SSD, but instead of the usual “where would you like to install?”, the prompts were written in a way that didn’t assure me that it wasn’t going to mess with my primary SSD, then I ran out of time and bailed for the night.
This was the tool that I was most curious about anyway, so this will be much easier.
This looks so good. Ok, I’m going to install this instead of the new distro after all. Lol
Oof, I don’t think I’d risk it.







I think he DMs them the real one privately.
