My cheap ass TV from 2019 is 55 inches. How much is a 55 inch monitor? Or a 65 in monitor if I want to upgrade to a bigger size in the future?

That’s quite interesting and actually a very useful step in proving what the comment above mine was trying to prove.

Your conclusion is probably correct, but I don’t think your proof works. I’m going to play devil’s advocate now: The thing to consider here is that these women were not just raised as boys, they were also born as boys. They may be on HRT now, but what if there are differences between how the male and female brains work that come from the Y chromosome? Or your hormonal balance in your formative years? I would hope not because that gives sexists way too much ammo, but we do not know for sure.

There’s other potential reasons for all the trans women in software engineering too. Children who don’t feel comfortable in their own identities are probably way less social - I don’t have enough trans friends to confirm this is true, but I feel like it might be. Not being particularly popular in school drives you to gaming as a hobby because you don’t need friends for that, and at least in the 90s and 00s that would usually mean tinkering with your PC (because Windows never fucking worked properly, did it now). This would also explain all the furries IMO.

I’d hoped their EVs would be less problematic as I’ve seen their ICE models break grown men. I guess I’ll continue to avoid them like the plague. Thanks.

Which E-tron? The original SUV? Are you happy with it?

I test drove a 55, was super happy with the powertrain, felt meh about the infotainment and didn’t like the interior much, BUT it was a Bolt short term rental, not a particular car I was looking at buying, so I reckon it probably had the minimum spec seats and such. They were cloth and uncomfortable. Likely leather and higher optioned seats would be nicer. I also love that E-Trons have heat pumps, it’s kind of a requirement for an EV in the Estonian climate.

Overall what I felt really weird about was the suspension. It had air suspension, but it did not, even in comfort mode, feel like a plush ride at all. Is that to be expected of E-Trons? Would I be better off just getting an ICE powered 5-series or E-Class for ride quality? Or maybe it was just an example with worn-out suspension, since it sees daily abuse from people test driving it…

Ah, personally I just figured I’d use wireguard. I have few enough users that a bit of setup isn’t a huge issue. No way I’d want to expose it completely publicly, same with any other home servers I run.

The public availability without open ports is indeed a strength of Plex.

What’s missing from Jellyfin for you?

I’m going to migrate over soon personally. I canceled my plex pass instead of upgrading to lifetime a few months ago because I felt like Plex was going to go down enshittification alley soon. I haven’t used Jellyfin much though, so not sure what to expect at this point. I don’t have a lot of users luckily

Ubuntu Karmic Koala. To be fair, I was a kid and that was, according to people on the Internet, the most likely to work. And so it did - it had out of the box support for my wifi adapter, which some other distros I tried later did not, I had to use something called ndiswrapper. Of course I did not yet know about compiling my own configured kernel, that came a month or 2 later.

I only stayed on Ubuntu for a while, then tried Mint, used that on and off for years, dabbled with Arch at some point, too. In the last 5 years I’ve used PopOs, Gentoo, OpenSuse, NixOS. I’m not gonna bother with capitalization and punctuation on some of these.

Supposedly the team left OwnCloud and forked it. So the value is that the OCIS team will be working on OpenCloud in the future.

Most people are too lazy to switch to alternatives when docker works fine most of the time and has a huge community to get support from. What do you use?

Unfortunately the solution is to use a binary package for your gender, which puts you in one of a few common configurations, rather than letting you customize.

Look, I have a suggestion that will change your life. You can never live another way again.

Go buy 10-20 pairs of socks, all same. When you get a hole in one sock, you only throw away the one sock. You never have to worry about mixing and matching. If you’ve got two socks, they count as a pair.

I’m not even matching my keycaps to socks, nor wearing anything special, I just found a specific pair of socks I liked and I’ve bought heaps over the years.

Oh I meant in that Atom was sunsetted to make way for it mostly.

That you have to manually specify partitions in Windows?

You literally don’t have to create a single one, only point it at empty space or a partition you’re willing to have it delete for space. It handles the rest. Does it matter how many partitions it creates?

Did you install that Ubuntu on a legacy BIOS system or maybe one with an existing EFI partition? Because I can’t see how you could have a modern OS without at least two partitions.

I mean you still have a separate EFI partition under Linux. Personally I also have a separate /home partition which is heavily recommended in case you nuke your Linux either on purpose or accidentally. You may also want to create other partitions, like swap, though I just have a swapfile.

Is the an installer that only creates only one partition, no EFI system partition?

Technically the successor is called VSCode and the original authors are working on Zed.

Zed for lightweight, Kate for regular text and the Jetbrains suite for when I want something that uses all of my RAM, but has a lot of niceties.

The only time I open up vscodium is when I want to conveniently edit files in a docker container that are part of the image rather than mapped from my filesystem

I mean it creates an EFI partition unless you have one, a recovery partition, and a… whatever the fuck an MSR partition is. It stands for Microsoft Reserved I believe, and should be 16 MB nowadays.

And then there’s the one partition that your OS goes on, the C:\ partition.

That’s exactly what I said, it creates its own partitions if you make free space or already have a clean disk. No need to manually make a partition.
