Nice, so we can increase the temperature of 0.5°C more right? Just for 5 minutes.

Well, correct me if I’m wrong, but RedHat also had more recent updates compared to CentOS, while also being certified.

Let’s maybe not? Do people really want more ads in their homes?

To be fair, they started developing symptoms much later then when we took care of them. But yeah, we had a lot of cats in the years, 90% of them were strays (or in this case, one of them was actually kicked of their house and spent some years outside) that self-tamed over time lol.

We had two stray cats, one was confirmed FIV+, the other not, they didn’t really get any recurring infection, but they both started having the same neurological symptoms: they lost control of their back legs and sphincters, had trouble walking straight and cleaning themselves so we had to do it.

I don’t know if this is a regular outcome of FIV, or if it’s even related at all, but you might want to look for gradual problems with walking and balance. Not much you can do unfortunately, but what I can tell you is they don’t get any less loving, actually, they probably get more. His last days one of the strays went from barely staying close to a human unless being fed, to purr, pets and constant headbutts.

Good luck with your little fella, glad he could find a caring home.

First article it gave me was for “Human extinction” lol

That’s not the problem though. Even if you have no other OS installed, windows still refuses to install on external HDDs.

Linux Mint has a program simply called “Drawing” that does exactly that. You can resize pictures, draw shapes, write text, paint and save as other formats. It’s a big buggy and unoptimized, but it’s cool. For simple things, it’s sometimes more convenient than GIMP.

Totally worth it

That’s one chonky little angel.

I’m guessing it’s fluffier than anything I’ve ever touched.

Thank you for your love. Glad he could warm your week :) he surely made a lot of people happier.

I’m doing ok. Loosing a furry friend is tough, but (unfortunately) I lost many in my years so I can deal with it. The only bad things about pets is that they always leave too soon.

Sputnik 1 was the first artifical satellite put into orbit. Based on how you define “first rocket in space”, it might have been Nazi Germany with their V2 rockets

but LMDE especially will be subject to dealing with older software

Are you sure about this? As far as I know, debian modernized their repos quite a bit even compared to ubuntu, that also sparked some controversy from debian long time fans especially because they wanted more dated, stable software. Never used LMDE though, so I’m not sure if it applies

Quite significant in theory, DDR3 maxes out at about 2000 MT/s (mega transfer per seconds) while DDR5 can go above 8000 MT/s, so about 3x-4x. I don’t know if this metric already includes the capability of DDR ram to access multiple data in a clock cycle, but I think it does. If it doesn’t, the difference is even higher.

Of course in practice the difference is not as remarkable, but still noticeable. Still, DDR3 is perfectly usable with a decent processor (light gaming and professional software), my main rig is a 4th generation i7 and I have no intention of upgrading for the foreseeable future.

Extra: still use ddr3 and watch the world burn, but slower

Unfortunately, that is not really possible.

The UEFI standard, a pdf that describes in detail the unified system that all motherbpards use during the boot process, is 1200+ pages long. And that’s only one of the many subsystems in a modern system (that gigantic pdf tells you nothinf about PCI, about ACPI and usb, nor any other hardware peripheral). Also, since you are talking about a modern system, you also would need kernel, drivers and operating system calls documentation. All of these exist (for an open source OS like linux, and if you follow the aforementioned standards), but bundling them in a book, and keeping them uodated, would be just impossible.

Thank you ❤️. He came to our home more than 5 years ago, already adult. He was most likely a house cat that was left on the street for some reason: in realively good health, but a little skinnier, neutered, but not chipped and every human he encountered he would ask for pets, even complete strangers. For some reason he licked and playfully bite like dogs when petting him.

Once we found him in front of the train station, he was just sitting there taking pets from random commuters coming in and out of the station. He was really precious and a bit needy of love, we gave him all we could.

Can’t save them all

Usually Trigger Warning, to warn someone more sensitive to triggers to be careful. Don’t really know which trigger would be in this email?

I enjoyed it a lot and honestly, while I could see the massive influence it had on other things, and even being impressed by the distopian technology that would seem really scifi at the time, but is normal today, I think there are some aspects that have been explored further, but not at the same detail.

For example, doublethink and newspeak as a concept exists in other media, but I’ve never seen it explored to such details than in the book.
