I think Tyson had the power in his arms to do some damage but he just did not have the speed to get in at all after 2 rounds. And he’d leave himself open if he tried.

Is zypper ref not required first I was never super clear on that
- Comment on Grr Windows 2 weeks ago:
Yeah and also you can just kinda do it in the background without much concern about it eating all your CPU or taking forever like Windows Updates does.
Also won’t take several minutes when you shutdown to do the “Preparing Updates… Don’t shut off your PC” like Windows.

1st that’s kinda weird
But also there actually is quite a bit of it already. Go to your user settings and make sure you have “Show explicit content (NSFW)” enabled.
There’s whole instances for this stuff like lemmynsfw.com. I see it in my feed (blurred, so I can use Lemmy at work lol) a lot especially if you scroll for a bit.

- Comment on Half as Hot 3 weeks ago:
Let’s say the summer average is 30⁰C or 303.15 Kelvin
The absolute coldest possible temperature is -273.15⁰C, or 0K.
Halfway between absolute zero and 30⁰C/303.15K is somewhere around -121⁰C/152K
So if it were half as hot in the summer, it would be colder than ever recorded on earth.

I think in this case prohibition should work fine…
The alternative is just… Get a non-disposable one and learn a bit of maintenance. Jesus.
- Comment on AMD’s Ryzen 9000X3D processors, with their fancy-pants cache, are launching November 7th 3 weeks ago:
The 9950X3D will likely be one of the best gaming CPUs around by raw numbers but some early leaks are showing it probably isn’t going to be worth the money over current chips like the 7800X3D - but wait for reviews obviously
- Comment on AMD’s Ryzen 9000X3D processors, with their fancy-pants cache, are launching November 7th 3 weeks ago:
Just got a 5700X3D as a final upgrade to my AM4 board. Great upgrade. Wanted a 5800X3D but they’re almost impossible to find so the 5700X3D was only 5% lower in most scores and only about $200. Also got two more 8GB sticks of RAM and a 7800XT
That should get me through this decade I think

I thought people in this thread were talking about not scrubbing the inside of the machine walls and I could relate.
This comment made me realize people meant they just don’t clean the basket… What the fuck
Like, of I make something that doesn’t leave any significant residue I might dump the crumbs and use it again but even a little oil and it’s getting cleaned.

The coastal communities south of Tampa are fucked.
I’m in the cone on the opposite coast so I should be alright just worried about extended power outage and flooded roads trapping me.
It’s absolutely insane that this thing is on track to cross the state and STILL BE A CAT 1/2 HURRICANE ON THE OTHER SIDE.
Ian in 2022 went directly over my head in a similar manner but was a tropical storm by then. Jesus.

Right but if there is a FlatPak, that’s usually the easier option

I’ve updated an Arch install after not being used for 2 years. I don’t think there were any issues.
- Comment on Pray for me lads, Imma about to rawdog this without back ups 5 weeks ago:
The system files aren’t writable, instead you download a new system image when you want to update. No dependency hell or weird issues because these system images are all tested. Your system also keeps one or two old ones around and if by some chance something does go wrong you just select the old one at boot.
Downside is you’re more limited on installing software. You can force install things the traditional way but that kinda defeats the point. Instead you have to use things like FlatPak or AppImages which covers most GUI apps you could want. For command line apps you will have to use something like DistroBox.
It’s a trade off but for casual desktop users it is super stable and pretty simple. Updates come out daily (depending on distro) and they just get all their software from the software center app with a nice GUI.
