Ah, gotcha. What a boneheaded decision on their part. They should be incentivising potential moviegoers, not punishing them.

Assuming you're a fellow USian, this ain't the right thread, friend. I mean I agree that everything is shittier here, but we should be celebrating the sudden surge for the SKG petition.

That said, I'm so happy to see this much support for it. Wish I could sign it myself. Hopefully this is only the first step.

I'm not able to find the link right now, but Technology Connections did a fantastic breakdown of the designs for U.S. plugs/outlets compared to those in (I think) the U.K.

Unsurprisingly, our outlets in the U.S. feature several braindead design choices that make them more dangerous.

I think their comment is supposed to sound like "Get back to work" when spoken quickly 😁

I have nothing to add to the conversation, except that that cat is freakin gorgeous!

Not Greg's money though, and that's all he gives a fuck about sadly.

Don't forget about the vibe-based deportations

I see two issues with this bad boy:

  1. The mouse is probably better off on a level surface, and
  2. I don't have the space or money for one.

During the flagpole installation ceremony on Wednesday, Trump asked the construction workers if they were illegal migrants, and said he hoped they all voted for him.

Fucking ~~un~~believable

 

Let's assume we're not stopped at a traffic signal.

This is only anecdotal, but I heard once that you're not supposed to stop altogether, rather drive at a slower pace so as to let it pass quickly. The person said what was more important is that drivers don't make sudden changes to their behavior. An EMT driver can more safely maneuver if they don't have to predict what any one knucklehead will do the moment they get close.

If this is wrong or needs clarification, please enlighten me!

 

TL;DR: Have a very expensive laptop and want to make sure I can create a partition on two SSDs in RAID 0 without messing up everything.

Hi everyone!

I'm pretty new to Linux and I'd like to get Mint running on my Windows machine. I used Ubuntu way back in maybe 2010 and I didn't really get why it was so great, except for "holy shit look at the kickass desktop cube!" I also use Arch By The Way with my Steam Deck, but that barely counts as "using" Linux.

These days I'm much more privacy- and FOSS-minded (not to mention more tech-savvy and comfortable with the CLI since becoming a web dev) so I'm ready and excited to take it more seriously. I definitely want to keep Windows on here to keep a more reliable option for playing games.

Now to the meat and potatoes: my laptop came with this storage configuration (capture from the product page): From my limited understanding of RAID 0, the two m.2 drives are used as if they're one, with the data being "striped" across them. Would that lead to any issues when I create a primary partition for Mint? Maybe I'm just paranoid, but the last thing I want to do is ruin my laptop.

Here's what Disk Management shows, in case the additional info. is needed:

I would really appreciate any advice y'all can offer!
