Woke up with my stomach in knots, figured I ate something bad the previous day. Texted my work group chat and let them know that I would be useless if I showed up, and explained that I think I ate something bad for dinner. They said something along the lines of “no worries, but you’re still gonna have to come in to at least grab the paperwork for staying home for a day.” Annoyed, I got a ride to work and went to go do the formalities and explained that my boss had already given me the go ahead to stay home, I just needed the paperwork. First guy I talked to had no issue just writing it up and sending me on my way, but when he stepped away for a second I got asked some questions by one of his coworkers who told me “we have to give you a check up first to determine if you actually have to stay home.” She checked my stomach for pain and listened to it make some noises, then decided I was just constipated and gave me something to drink to help. First guy still wrote the paperwork up for me, and I got to go home, stomach in even worse situation and I spent nearly 2 hours on the toilet before I felt safe enough to go lay down and slept the rest of the day away.

(And yes I’m well aware that it’s atypical to get a checkup by your workplace, this was a weird and terrible place to work. Glad I got outta there.)

You’ll have to use the PC to interact with things, this is where a lot of people suggest a cheap Bluetooth keyboard with a track pad, or keyboard and mouse.

Assuming you’re using a modern TV, it functions just like a monitor for a computer. A mini PC is the same as a desktop/laptop, just in a little box. So basically you just plug the mini PC in with an HDMI to the TV, install the apps you need on the mini PC and you’re good to go

As the meme points out, Linux attracts the autistic crowd, and there have been some studies done that have found a correlation between autism and being transgender. Namely that people who are autistic tend to care less about gendered norms, and therefore are more likely to explore their own gender

Is there a video of this somewhere? It sounds amusing

It helps humanize them

Hyprland is not a DE

I like to pick based off the name of the command I use to evoke the package manager. Currently, I’m enjoying using yay but I’ve been thinking about emerge quite a bit

Edited for pedantic specificity

Man if only there was an option like --sudoloop to ensure that doesn’t happen

Honestly, it seems like you probably shouldn’t be wasting your time with this woman.

Man you were giving great advice until you suddenly decided that people in the porn industry are incapable of love and only use sex as a weapon. Sex workers are human beings.

No extra steps

So you don’t download your GPU drivers? That’s more steps than adding a launch option

Not quite “just works” but I’d be willing to bet that your computer defaulted to the iGPU instead of your dGPU because you didn’t specify as such in your launch options

Dayta - it comes from the Latin word Datum which is pronounced day tum. At least that’s what my middle school science teacher would tell us

Superman knew what ass he was grabbing

Unless you care about their use of Denuvo

I think I saw something recently about the cursor getting some tweaks in Wayland, I think KDE was working on it? Not sure if it’ll help this kind of stuff but they’re trying to standardize the cursor a bit better

Yeah, the mod key is my best friend with Sway, I literally can’t avoid using it

TIL there’s a name for this. This has been one of my bits for years
