It's about as dangerous as using IE in the old days, or Edge in administrator mode.

Cancel and demand a refund. Also tell them that they're poop faces and have poop for faces.

Yes, and it's trivial to retask with the AC97 HD Audio program in Windows, but I couldn't find an equivalent program for Linux.

Thanks, I'll give it a shot.

I do use Linux, and I'm usually glad about it, but I wasted an hour last night trying to figure out how to change my microphone port to a subwoofer port, and never did solve the problem. Linux is awesome, but sometimes basic stuff is ridiculously difficult or impossible.

I have tried to out-crazy them, but crazy has gone beyond my ability in the last few years.

Hillary wasn't likable. The DNC is to blame for pushing an unlikable, unpopular candidate. They'd rather lose with Hillary, than win with Bernie, so that's what they did. That is not new behavior for them. Plus trump resonated with a lot of fed up idiots, so he got votes. Thankfully he didn't get enough votes the second time around.

8 was a tragedy of Titanic proportions.

Obama did do a great job compared to everyone within 8 years on either side of him.

The brain and the soul make the man, not the body. Unless we're talking about Mr. Universe champions, or other elite athletes.

You're looking for logical consistency where none exists.

The best place to start is talking to people you know and checking if they have the in with any good jobs. Then if that doesn't work, apply directly for jobs you find by checking with individual companies, ideally speaking with the hiring manager first. Jobs listed on job boards are really difficult to get. You're up against everyone, and they have filters that accidentally discard a lot of qualified candidates.

 

I guess every post I've ever made is on a different instance than my home instance, and I'm unable to find them under my profile. How do you find posts you have made?

 

I value seeing the downvotes and upvotes separately on posts and comments. Seeing a combined score doesn't give an accurate picture of a submission. Lemmy s decision to separate these was a good one in my opinion. But Sync has combined them together again, like Reddit, which I dislike. I've checked all of the settings, but I don't see an option to separate them back out again. Does anyone know if this is possible in Sync for Lemmy?

 

Edit: solved!

All of the reply buttons are there for comments, but nothing for the actual post itself. Here's a screenshot:

 

There are a couple of instances that are clearly misaligned with my values, but they're very active, so a lot of the communities keep popping up in my feed. I've been blocking the communities, but it would be pretty cool if I could just block the entire instance. I know an instance can defederate from another instance. Is there a way for an individual user to do something similar, short of spinning up an entire instance myself?

 

Edit: I have added the share name at the end of the IP address and now I'm getting mount error(115): Operation now in progress. I haven't figured this one out yet either. My computer IP and the network drive IP are on the same network and within range. Both should be using the same gateway and DHCP.

I have tried just about every combination of parameters possible and nothing is working. It keeps spitting out a meaningless error and that error is the only thing in the log file too. I have tried a 100 different answers from across stack-overflow to no avail.

I'm running the command below:

sudo mount -t cifs //192.168.50.1/ /mnt/asus -o credentials=/home/user/.smbcredentials

and regardless of how many params I have removed it keeps spitting out : mount error(22): Invalid argument Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g. man mount.cifs) and kernel log messages (dmesg)

I have referred to the manpage and verified that all of the args I'm using are valid. At this point I'm kind of at a loss. Are there file system args I need to add or something?

I can see the disk with all of the sharenames when I run smbclient -L 192.168.50.1, and I can navigate to it in the file browser, but I can't mount it for some reason. I have the workgroup name set under /etc/samba/smb.conf. I have tried enabling and disabling NT1. Does anyone have any ideas as to why it might be spitting out an invalid args error even when I removed every single argument?

 

I originally saw this movie during a late night TV marathon for all the movies these two actors made together. I fell in love with them as an acting duo and recommended a few of their movies to multiple people. But years passed and I eventually forgot their names and the title of the movie.

Has anyone seen this movie recently? I saw it back in the 90's and I thought it was brilliant, passionate, romantic, and tragic. But I also remember it being quite crude with the dialogue and it's probably pretty sexist by today's standards.

I have always wanted to share this movie with my wife, but I couldn't remember what it was called. I have asked around before and no one knew what it was, based on my description. I just asked ChatGPT and it instantly identified it. I haven't seen it in 25 years, and I'm wondering if it holds up. Is this a good movie? Do you think it is wise to recommend to my wife that we watch this?

 

My block list is quickly filling up with communities that I don't have anything against, I just don't speak the language. Does such a setting already exist? If not, are there any plans to add one?

 

Do privacy focused phones have such a service? What maps and music apps do they use if such a thing exists?

 

I have the show read posts checkbox unchecked to supposedly not show posts I've already read, but the app still shows all of them, essentially leaving the feed rather stale. Is this a bug, or am I supposed to do something to indicate that a post has been read? The heading color changes, so I assume that the app knows I've seen it already.

 

The app can obviously determine what we've seen already since it greys the titles of those posts. It would be great if there was a setting to hide those posts by default once they've been viewed.

 

I tried watching it right now and turned it off about half way through. The deep and meaningful, touching story is gone, only to be replaced by annoying, contrived characters, and unbelievable situations. I don't understand how this movie is getting such good reviews. I genuinely loved the original, but was mostly just annoyed by all the noise and ridiculous characters in this remake.
