Saved for late :^)

Had a linux moment yesterday, piped "clang --help" into grep to find something, it wasn't there but the piping itself was awesome.

Don't have anybody else to tell lol

I'm finally back, apparently linux mint comes with ntfs handling out of the box, just opened the file explorer (nemo), and opened a picture successfully.

Only step left is disabling booting through windows.

It's about the files, not the OS

Something kinda funny, installing clang is extremely simple, and gcc was preinstalled, so i already got a C development environment on vs code :)

Maybe I'll try getting a different code editor, to simplify things even more, it'll take a while though, for now vs code should be fine

I'd really like to not open up the device and mess with it, kinda need it for use soon, so i cant afford the time.

Also, i agree, but just disabling the ability to boot through windows should be enough for now, by the time I'd need more control, i can safely say the old files aren't needed, and can ditch the windows partition.

It's not for professional reasons, it's all personal, plus studies, I'm not switching wholesale because i might need to access the old files (extremely unlikely, but I don't want to make decisions based on that), and the laptop has enough stirage for me to be happy with the partition i made, which is ~200GB

Look i appreciate the help but you didn't read the rest of the thread, i have a reason to keep it, it non negotiable.

Got an old laptop from a friend I'd like to rejuvenate, the plan is to set up a light distro so it wouldn't be as slow as it is right now with windows 10.

Now, I'm aware windows updates can fuck up a dual boot system, so i have a few questions about how to minimize the threat of that happening.

What i think of doing is running a few scans to check the disk, then setting up Linux Mint, because it is beginner friendly, and (relatively) light weight.

What I'd need help with is trusted guides and also tips for setting up dual booting, I'm sure I'll need to do disk partitioning and I've done that before but I'd still want to make sure I'm doing it correctly.

Any help would be welcome.

Been in a relationship for a year, since early in the relationship my partner has been suffering with chronic back pain. This pain is almost always present, this causes breakdowns multiple times a week, especially on weekends.

I've been having a hard time helping her manage her pain and being there for her, it reoccures so much that I'm starting to feel myself becoming apathetic towards her, and sometimes outright cold.

I haven't really been getting a chance to rest from being emotionally available, or even socially available (even though life circumstance already caused me to basically halt all social life). And i haven't really had a weekend this past months that i could use to rest instead of being on call and hearing her cry most of the day.

I feel like I'm pouring from an empty cup and that I don't have any other choice, otherwise I'd be leaving her to deal with it herself.

It feels like it's going to be the end of our relationship, any advice?

p.s. we're a man-woman relationship, young adults, both of us not really experienced in relationships, if that's any help.

Fucking hell, the liberals are using trans people as an excuse to throw the palestinians under the bus.

Look, if you're going to disregard the palestinians' human rights, then there will come a time when you'll do the same for trans people, and they are amart enough to know that.

The queer people's greatest strength is solidarity so spoiler alert, this won't really fly, how about you use your vote as a bargaining chip instead of sTrATegIcALly voting no questions asked?

Agreed, I'd rather use GOG but they don't accept my card :/

Been 2 months since the update but I don't see any news about code editor support for the new syntax.

This kind of makes sense, i don't expect code editor support to pop up so fast, but i was at least hoping to hear some news about it.

The PEP in question: PEP 695
