Doesn't look like it currently supports powershell or bash. I don't code but I do a fair bit of scripting. I've played a tiny bit with AI assisted scripting but it's generally left a lot to be desired.

I always thought Ziggy was a cool name.

TLDR: do memtest on your RAM

I recently had an issue for quite some time where my computer would occasionally just hard crash. When it first started happening I tried many of the common tests including memcheck but found nothing. For a while it wasnt super common so I just lived through it. I thought it was an OS thing but it occurred on a different Linux distro and even on the ancient Windows 10 install I have but rarely use. I was just about to pull the trigger on replacing mobo and maybe even CPU+RAM. Before I did that I followed someone's suggestion to do a mem test. I could have at least sworn that I already did that and it came clean but it was an easy enough test to run, so why not.

Sure enough, found an error. I isolated the faulted DIMM, pulled it out and I haven't had a crash since. Crazy since I'm all but certain I did both memtest from a Linux live iso and the Windows memory checking utility.

In short, test your RAM. Do multiple passes. Maybe even just try swapping out single DIMMs and running on that for a reasonable ammount of time to see if you can isolate a culprit. It was my first thought when the issue first occurred because it's usually what causes stuff like that. When the tests came up clean originally I assumed it had to be something else. I was wrong.

As someone who has beaten that game probably in the double digits, I'm pretty sure the next few words are "out of it". The start of the game/intro you're unconscious from a shipwreck.

Thinking of trying to morph my Leap workstation into Tumbleweed (and potentially Slowroll once that project matures enough). I've seen that you can do it . I reckon I can rollback relatively easily via the BTRFS snapshots if it goes sideways, but just curious to see what others' experience with doing so has been.

in fstab, there's a nofail option that I started using when mounting NFS and other disks that may be missing and I don't want to kill my bootup

My wife was a bone conduction earphone candidate for multiple reasons and I convinced her to try some. Her first pair from Shokz died relatively quickly, but they sent her a replacement without much hassle. She likes them a lot. Every now and then I steal them for a bit. I call it the "voice of god" because when you play something through them it's like telepathy. You can hear the outside unimpeded, but there's also this extra sound being injected into your head. Would recommend.

I would just append that judging people is a good thing, often blanket misinterpreted as a bad thing. You should make an initial judgement upon meeting someone (it doesn't really matter, your subconscious will anyway). The important part is being willing to update that judgement based on learning more.

Subbed. Just curious as to how (or if) you intend to differentiate yourself from the Jupiter Broadcasting team's Selfhosted.show podcast?

...I used to be cruel to my woman and beat her and kept her apart from the things that she loved...

I'm assuming it's that one. I'm not a Beatles historian so maybe I've missed the mark. But hey, gotta admit it's getting better

Maybe I'm in the minority (doubtful since the switch is super popular) but I don't need the Switch2 to be better than current/next gen as far as hardware goes. It's portability, flexibility and funativity are what sells the thing for me. I've got a PC if I want to play fancy pants AAA games. One day, I'll probably have a Steam Deck. I like playing Zelda and Mario, etc. on my Switch like it's a the Super-Mega-Gameboy that I dreamed about as a youth. I sometimes play it docked, but probably 80+% of my game time on it is in handheld mode.

If the Switch 2 was basically a PS5-esque console (non-mobile, regular console), I'm sure I'll eventually pick one up to play Nintendo exclusives, but mostly that would just hasten my purchase of a Steam Deck.

My opinion is probably in line with most; that for general "news" it's just fine. For niche topics, most aren't here or at least aren't as robust as Reddit

There are two relatively minor features that I do wish would be implemented:

  1. homepage defaults to Subscribed instead of all, or at least a way to set that as the default

  2. a quick jump to top of page button that stays present when you've scrolled way down the page. Not sure if that was a RIF addition or native to Reddit, but that was a nice quality of life feature

You're on the same wavelength as me. My ideal product is an e-ink display to stick in the kitchen or some other high traffic area to display relevant family information and with touch controls to do some fairly basic things like toggle digital switches/dials or just switch to alternative dashboards. If I could find a touch-enabled e-ink display that's a good size but not stupid expensive (keeping in mind this is absolutely a luxury item so I'm not looking to shell out any significant volume of monies on the thing), I could attach one to a Pi and make one myself.

Topic for discussion... I'm generally poor at using an appropriate amount of oil when cooking. If you use too little oil, the food tends to burn (not brown) and generally doesn't cook as well or as fast. On the other end if you use too much oil the food ends up greasy. I tend to err on the side of too much oil, but I'd love to be schooled on how better to proportion the amount of oil I need in a pan when cooking something down.
