I don't know if it works differently in the US but the best way to build your credit score is to not take on debt.
Keeping your credit utilization low and not missing any payments is the key. It's an indication of how likely you are to meet the payments.
If you max your credit cards out and just pay the minimum amount, carrying thousands of dollars of debt and as a result can't get a mortgage or a car loan because your credit score is shit then the system is working as expected.
I find it fascinating. You could play bingo with those people's profiles.
The squares would be something like:
Don't forget that a large chunk of that money also goes to the creators. It's significantly more than they get from showing you an ad.
I can increase my cellphone plan with the click of a button.
If I want to decrease it that same button redirects to a live chat where I have to talk to one of their agents.
Their agents will genuinely give you a better deal, but for some reason can't change your plan to a lesser one without breaking your contract, causing hundreds of dollars in extra fees.
The brick and mortar agents can do it in 2 minutes with no hassle. You walk in and say I want this plan, show your id, sign the change request and you're done.
I don't even think they are doing it on purpose. Why would they have a button that connects me to someone they are paying to convince me to give them less money per month? They cut my wife's bill in half because she is month to month.
It's just Hanlons Razor. Supreme incompetence.
They should release virus trading cards. Get vaccinated to receive a booster pack with the various variants and a chance to get limited edition numbered runs.
I have a $2 USB C cable I got off of Ali that I use to charge my laptop at 65W. It's rated for 100W but I have no way of testing it.
It's actually higher quality than any official apple cable I've used, although that's a pretty low bar.
I know there is probably a historical reason but I hate how find parses its arguments.
Any other app would be fine --name or find -n.
Every time I use it I have to spend a few minutes checking the results to make sure that it's actually doing what I want it to do.
I've thrown Linux on every laptop I've ever owned, and a couple of family members laptops as well and the past 15 years and haven't encountered 1/10th of the issues they you have.
Complaining about broken suspend is funny because Microsoft basically killed S3 sleep in favour of the battery sucking S0. If anything it works better in Linux because you won't open up your laptop to find that Windows Update fucking ran in the background while it was sitting closed in your backpack and rebooted.
I think your issue might be more of an AMD issue. They have a long history of buggy mobile hardware even on Windows.
I mean hell I threw Fedora on to my Intel MacBook Pro and the only real annoyance I had was not being able to reliably disable the SPDIF light in the 3.5mm jack.
I'm currently using the non-linux version of the XPS 13 2-in-1 and my OS experience is actually the opposite of your friends. I can install any Linux ISO without issue, but the standard Win 11 ISO refuses to work because it can't detect any storage drives.
As far as daily driving Linux on it, the only things that don't work are the fingerprint reader and webcam. It's a bit of a piss off given that non-touchscreen version uses similar spec hardware that does support it but it doesn't really affect daily use.
If a game can't run on the Series S it means it also can't be ported to the PC. Turn down the resolution and graphics settings until you get the same fps target and continue in with your day.
I would expect any game from a developer that complains about this to be so poorly optimized that it runs like it would on the Series S on the bigger consoles, and likely have garbage gameplay as well because they spent all of their budget on graphics.
I use the proprietary version for the remote tools and settings sync.
I can work from home on my windows PC with no loss of productivity compared to my Linux workstation.
And the ability to open any GitHub repo in the browser based Code just by pressing . is a game changer.
Still using it with Python 3.6 lol. You just have to pin the version of the Python extension to 2022.8.1
Depends on what you're using it for. Fedora's release ver upgrades are fairly seamless. Just a big dnf update really.
Meanwhile I have a bunch of servers stuck on CentOS 7 that are going to need to be completely rebuilt by next summer. I'm also limited by them because the pdf generator I use requires a version of libpango that was released in 2019 and EL7 is stuck on the 2018 version.
I switched from Rocky to Fedora Server because I was sick of running into compatibility issues with dependencies that exist in the Fedora repo and not EL.
Specifically postgres. One of the projects requires postgis and gdal, which are in the Fedora community repo, but I have to use the official postgres repo on Rocky and the people that maintain those repos are literally incompetent. They have an automated script that generates all of the packages and they can't even be bothered to double check that the packages are built against the correct version of postgres, so your install will fail because a PG14 package is looking for a dependency that only exists in the PG11, PG12, and PG15 repo.
