This whole forced microsoft copilot thing is making me so mad. Been thinking for a while of having a second hard drive with a linux distro for my personal work that i can boot to, and keeping windows for external work stuff.
Not sure how to go about doing this, though, does anyone have any advice on this
Also for distros i was thinking popOS since I recall using it for his work*. I have been using Kubuntu on a laptop and it works great, but I am open to suggestions. I mostly use Krita, Scribus and OpenOffice.
*Edit: I recalled wrong, see replies :)

Here's a core concept video on Seneca's Letter 30, in which he uses the example of a friend who is approaching death to discuss how we all might think about our own inevitable demises.
So, I have kidney cancer. We are pretty sure its some type clear cell (most common). Im having my kidney and mass removed February 19th. And while the thought of living with one kidney doesnt bother me the idea of surgery does. Im coming around more to it.
Its also good there doesnt seem to be any spread (according to all scans). Doesnt mean it cant come back, but maybe we can take this out and get to living a little more.

Balance the strict logic with a bit of intuition, just enough to know when an opportunity is good. Remember it's not all about the coin. Sometimes you do something for the fun of it. Stay curious.

You don't need to be flashy nor loud. Just keep being the steady reliable person that others know will deliver. You don't need to show off. You just promise then back it up. Deeds not words.

Good Morning! Have a great day!
Based on 32Considering trying to get into . We live near a playhouse so gonna see if I can just volunteer there on the weekends doing set work or something to test the waters and get some from the .
The thing is, I discovered that I enjoy acting while performing in a "Snow White and the Seven Dwarves" parody play waaay back in 8th grade but my low self-esteem issues led me away from pursuing it after being mocked by some assho uh, other kids. I've always regretted letting them get in my head.
Now, playing has rekindled my interest, plus I've gotten much better at not giving a shit about others' opinions.
Might be worth a shot. Any from any for an aspiring
>D-Day veteran says whisky is the secret to a long life
The guy is 103 and still going, so you heard it here folks. Have a glass for a long life.
I am slowly realizing I have like no friends that live near me anymore and I'm very unsure how I make friends now
There's no meetup groups around that are things of interest to me, there's no more public spaces near me where people can just... meet other people anymore, and it isn't like any of these "friend apps" are what I want or actually have my benefit in mind
How does one make friends in 2024 I'll take any advice I can get at this point
When Self-Consciousness Gets In The Way Of Parenting

We were not wealthy, nowhere near, but did not want. Mom made sure of one thing for her three boys: That they knew how to cook, clean, etc. because we shouldn't expect no woman to do it for us.

Any suggestions on how to deal with a neighbourhood pest
There's a guy let's call him the Leafs Asshole who drives around the neighbourhood *laying* on the horn of his Leafs-flags bedecked silver Hyundai. He's got the radio blaring too, and he alternates between driving very slowly yelling at people or extremely fast and unsafely. You can hear him many blocks away.
He's been doing this for a while. He clearly has some problems, but he needs to stop.
In every lie there is an ounce of truth, but the truth they won't tell you is often an agenda or there is some form of conditioning behind it. Because truths would speak for themselves. Whereas lies are hidden in a deeper meaning.

despite that i clearly express they can engage with those ideas at their own leasure i still end up putting a pressure on them. I want to respect their time, so i want to empower them to have a rudimentary exploration of consent from my end on their own time, without me needing to be present.

Anyone got any on how to communicate the CPU temperatures of several in a cluster case to a main controller
Here's a flowdiagram of how this is gonna work, hopefully:
Main pi controlling fans --> waits for a pi to report temperature (main board also periodically checks temp) --> adjusts fan speed based on the highest temperature in the cluster
Do you think we'll succeed
