Linear components like power amplifiers are made from the same material as digital circuitry, and they use a lot more of it.

What, you mean it wasn’t there already ? It’s the only place where it would be actually useful.

Reagan in his second term would forget what he said halfway through a sentence.

It could be a hardware issue. I’ve found that if the screen drivers fail it usually switches to a text console or reboots into one. Assuming you have a laptop, does wiggling the screen make any difference. If its a desktop, try wiggling the power connector or video cable (both ends) and along the cables, sometimes stress can break the wires in the cables if they go around a bend.

The rot really began with Google and the the goal of “professionalism” in teaching.

Textbooks were thrown out, in favour of “flexible” teaching models, and Google allowed lazy teachers to just set assignments rather than teach lessons (prior to Google, the lack of resources in a normal school made assignments difficult to complete to any sort of acceptable standard).

The continual demand for “professionalism” also drove this trend - “we have to have these vast, long winded assignments because that’s what is done at university”.

AI has rendered this method of pedagogy void, but the teaching profession refuses to abandon their aim for “professionalism”.

It switches to storing files on Onedrive without warning.

Then if you disable Onedrive, you lose access to your files (on Onedrive) and their memory space is reused.

It doesn’t actually delete local storage, as the path is just switched.

When I was in year 5 the kids in the class had been working cutting apricots and they bought tonnes of candy and these whistles they were blowing all the time.

How much did the whistles cost ? one cent.

True story.

From the questions people ask and from online accounts.

The MacIntosh did not have an eject button famously.

I think the term “The Nethetlands” was coined after the Reformation and Counter-Reformation when the northern provinces ,which became Lutheran, separated from the southern provinces which remained Roman Catholic.

The country was usually referred as “Holland” (a northern province) before then.

America was originally just the name of South America, then the English lazily coined the term “North America”.

Why are you using multiple partitions ?

Linux is not like Windows where you can run programs on any partition or inserted media ; you can only run executables on the primary boot partition. Its therefore pointless IMO to have more than one partition (plus a swap partition).

Have you tried asking ChatGPT or Gemini ?

This is what Bing said :

Fixing “Gave up waiting for root device” error in Debian The error “Gave up waiting for root device” in Debian can be caused by missing modules or incorrect partition references. To fix this issue, you can follow these steps: Boot into a live session and list the UUIDs of all partitions using sudo blkid. Check the /etc/fstab file to ensure the correct UUID is listed for the root partition. If the UUID is missing or incorrect, replace it in the /etc/fstab file. If the error persists, you may need to rebuild the initramfs file by running sudo update-initramfs -u after installing the necessary modules with apt-get install lvm2 cryptsetup if you are using logical volumes. 1

These steps should help you resolve the boot error and restore your system’s functionality.

Before giving my verdict on this Wayland/sway experiment, let me explain that my experience on X11/i3 is really good. I don’t see any tearing or other artifacts or glitches in my day-to-day computer usage. I don’t use a compositor, so my input latency is really good

But I thought X11 didn’t have compositors ? Just a window manager.

No I know. The stuff made in the 1970s was utter garbage.

Anything with moving parts, after about 6 weeks you’d hear a grinding noise then a snap and a puff of smoke.

Skill issue.

yeah i dont know how i couldve survived without eigen vectors

It’s not free you know.

Yes, the software doesn’t cost anything but the chipset is supplied by a single manufacturer Qualcomm and costs a bomb.

Its just Ubuntu with a theme.

You have to do everything from the terminal anyway…

By “non-political” he means pro-MAGA.

Recommended minimum for Win 11 is 4 GB.

The system does not need to use RAM to run multiple programs, it can use secondary memory.
