Does the computer have to be powered on in order for the puck to charge the controller?

I mean… it works for animals?

I’ve considered switching several times in the past, but each time there was something I needed that was not supported (e.g. - this issue with Zoom screen sharing)

In the last of these times I found no such dealbreaker, but I did want to try a dualboot setup - or dual-login, actually, because I should be able to switch at the greeter - first, to make sure I’m not breaking anything I need for work. This required switching from LightDM to a display manager that supports both X11 and Wayland. I don’t remeber which one I’ve chosen, but I do remember having hard time installing it (I think I couldn’t get it to launch i3 for whatever reason)

I’ve just checked and is seems LightDM supports Wayland now, so maybe it’s time to try the switch again. Being able to use my current DM means I’m not going to risk breaking anything. Probably.

If the presidential election were held today – with the same candidates – I would sit out.

That’s wild. Wanting to turn back time, not in order to make a difference - but in order to avoid making a difference?

Okay, but by then 20 million dollars will be considered pocket change.

Did they really play it then?

Fixed it

Someone never played Zelda and it shows.

I’m sorry, but the pink&white striped ones are canonically Arch.

Shaggy got his pizza from an IKEA display room.

My brain looked at the gummies at the background and interpreted the text as “only eat one a day” which is not something I think I can do.

Which means kids should play paper games during class to make these moments less dull.

The bees are your friends.

As long as they are still around, that is…

If your MBTI is fixed because it is based on how you answer questions so long as it is without the intent to alter its outcome, then it is not anymore deterministic than a horoscope.

I fail to follow your logic here. The idea is that the answers you give - which are assumed here to be “without the intent to alter” - are based on your personality, and can therefore be used to measure it. I’m not sure what the word “deterministic” means in this context, but the answer do not determine the personality - they are determined by it.

“Fixed” is also not a good word - one’s personality, and the way they answer such questions, can change during their lifetime as they get older and shaped by experiences.

Voyager 3 will stop working halfway to Mars because it’ll try to verify the subscription status with us-east-1 and get a timeout.

If you are not paying living wages for a full-time job, that means you are getting subsidized employees from the government.

Not necessarily. A good therapist can foster an environment where you can feel safe to be honest. Or, at least, safer than you feel with friends and family.

Even when it’s repeat violent offenders - why would you want to prevent them from getting jobs? What do you think will happen if you release them from prison, once they finish serving their sentence, and they can’t get jobs?

She feared the impact a theft charge, though small, would have on her financial career.

Wild that a false accusation, after being proven as false at the court of law, can still impact one’s career.

Says 179 when I try (not sure why it’s different) but only 47 of them are the actual article - the rest are references.
