nice username

stars, this is good.

What AI chatbot do you use and why?

bold of you to assume we use AI chatbots.

AI is destroying society and the planet and needs to be stopped. The least we can do it not use it.

wow TIL

title is misleading. first paragraph immediately says they’re still made of rice, just rice flour instead of rice grains.

to be fair, i don’t see what knowing Asian languages has to do with knowing a religion.

what about Bandcamp?

wait really, i didn’t know that about TikTok. rare W for what i normally consider to be the most toxic of all

mmm. been a while since i saw a principled stance from libertarians. i missed it.

well, I just assumed Grub because in my experience, almost all Linux systems use Grub. I’ve never actually heard of Limine.

as for using different bootloaders for each operating system, that doesn’t really make sense to me. it’s technically possible to install different bootloaders on each SSD (and that might be what the installer does by default, if it doesn’t detect the presence of the existing operating system), but the point of a bootloader is to choose which operating system you want to boot, so if you set up a separate bootloader for each operating system, then you’d need a way to choose which bootloader you want to boot.

there actually is a way to do that, on most computers at least, you can use the BIOS/EFI boot menu to select which bootloader you want to boot. but I don’t think this approach really offers any advantages over having them share a bootloader.

if it’s going to be on a separate SSD, it should be pretty straightforward: insert live USB for your secondary OS, go through its installer and be careful which SSD you select for it to install on (I recommend backing up all your important data before any procedure like this, just incase you make a mistake or something weird happens). and then you just need to make sure your bootloader knows about both OSes. the installer might automatically detect your existing OS and configure your bootloader to know about both. if not, you might have to update your grub config file after the installation is complete.

🤣️

well, that’s a terrible idea. you’ll get much better results in the long term by learning how the config actually works, and probably in the short term too.

indeed i haven’t, because the title is such absolute bullshit and AI propaganda that there’s no point entertaining it.

948 is an absurd number to bugs to find at one time. i bet most of them are fake. i’ve seen the “bugs” AI likes to find

interesting. i wonder why they did this, just symbolic domination?

no they didn’t.

I don’t know what recent events you mean, but in general I think such rules are overrated. Moderators can remove spam without an explicit rule against spam. Trying to list every possible behavior that a community would reject is never really feasible, we have to rely on human intuition anyway

W for Mint!

is that dmesg output on your top, always visible? pretty cool tbh
