Dude runs a tech youtube channel and acts like he knows everything about computers. But for some reason when he uses Linux we're supposed to treat him like grandma with her first ever laptop? Don't trust this guy on anything he puts videos out about. He's not tech savvy, dude is an actor. Found it really funny he encountered two issues with running PopOS but didn't bother explaining why or how he fixed either of them. If I had to guess, I'd say he called a crew member off camera.

Not typically what you'd think of when somebody says "mom's computer," but this is exactly what happens when my GPU overheats. Monitors stay on with black screen and no response from keyboard input.

This happens to me once in a while with Fedora KDE. Usually right after a kernel update and I can resolve by going back to the previous kernel for a few days. Always guessed it was the AMD GPU driver.

I came here to say this also. First bad update and then both would be broken and pretty stressful for your friend...

Pile in if I'm wrong, but I dual boot win11 and linux it works fine. The only condition is it has to be separate physical disk. I wasn't able to use the same hard drive with just partitions had to be completely different drives.

I tried, but could never find anything that would work as a VOIP subsititute. So now I have a pixel that does everyrhing except phone calls. Getting close to just giving up and slamming a sim in it because at least it's a little better than stock android.

I was over here thinking what if somebody didn't even know that was what she was doing or that they were supposed to say thank you. Now that poor person will be left wondering what even happened because her resolution (picking it up and putting it back) provides no opportunity to learn.

Did you try dual boot with one drive? Windows will fuck that up.

In this specific instance, it sounds like education on how to safely communicate and interact with ICE, or at least best available practices, was shared to people who may not have otherwise gotten any info at all. That seems like something to me.

I didn't have any intention of arguing..I was curious what you didn't like about it. You're entitled to your opinion.

What did Fedora do to hurt you so much?

GN went offensive on a company critical to US national security interests and were contacted by the secret service. Makes sense.
