jokes aside, is weird enough to look appealing to me, and probably functional.
there is a risk of pressing “stop” instead of snooze or not hearing the alarm at all, I’m with OP on this one, I tend to go 2 or 3 depending on how tired I am, but never 1 xD
Thanks for the advice, but a distro change for me would be a huge annoyance. I haven’t have issues with my laptop’s 1060 nvidia on Arch, and never had issues with the proprietary driver.
My worry is that even though mature GPU are probably well supported, I bought a relatively new one (4070 super ti) so maybe the new models have some issues due to having more features/being more extreme. Most complains here are about 30/40 models after all.
oh man, reading the comments fill me with fear, as I just ordered a new computer after stretching my old laptop for 8 years or so. I was super close to getting an AMD but went with Nvidia in the end… but so much bad juju in the comments for Nvidia too…
One that I can remember many years ago, classic trying to do something on a flash drive and dd
my main hdd instead.
Funny thing, since this was a 5400rpm and noticed relatively quick (say 1-2 minutes), I could ctrl-c the dd, make a backup of most of my personal files (being very careful not to reboot) and after that I could safely reformat and reinstall.
To this day it amazes me how linux managed to not crash with a half broken root file system (I mean, sure, things were crashing right and left, but given the situation, having enough to back up most things was like magic)
hmmm… I’m pretty sure I’ve been around since before YouTube started and don’t have any idea, so I still think is the case.
I think people tend to not understand how big internet is, even back then. This makes it difficult to know which memes really made it all the way to become THAT popular (and even those are not know by everyone, some people just don’t follow memes)
The internet is wild, people spend most of their time in small echo chambers and they think that is the whole internet.
The stylisation works so well on my mind that it took me a bigger while than you think to figure out what the meme was about xD
ok fine, hypnotoad, I’ll subscribe
I love this policy!! I wish it was applied everywhere :-)
it would be awesome to have a way to open the post directly in a given instance (maybe an autocomplete textbox or something, ideally it would detect, but not sure how that would work in a safe way, maybe cookies for now, not global, but at least the most common instances will remember your instance). I did the copy paste today and it felt a bit clunky (specially on mobile)
I mean, if I was a reddit infra engineer (and this is a long shot because I’m not), I would definitely use the “blackout day(s)” for some heavy maintenance or experiments that normally are too scary to do on a high loaded live server.
(edit: spelling)
to be fair, when I say minutes I meant that I used to check out r/popular several times a day, not every minute, so 30 mins is perfectly possible. Normally I used to see “new content” every time, and quite a few posts, today doesn’t seem to “move” that much, although I haven’t make a very thorough study, I just woke up 1h ago and checked twice after reading your comments.
Also, most of it is super old (>8h) and the content is quite different, normally there are a lot of “everything” (“good” and “bad”), but today seems like everything is in the “negative” side (AITA, wcgw, dankmemes…) and some other subs that I have never seen. (quoting here since good and bad is very subjective)
But we may have different perceptions and that is fine.
hmmm… are we checking the same page r/popular? normally there is a new post every X minutes and now in the main page there are several >8h posts… I think is definitely noticeable and obvious (not to mention the three posts with information about the protest on very popular subreddits)
maybe you were expecting an empty page? that will never happen, if that would happen reddit admins would reopen subs or even upload random memes to new subs to make it “not empty”
or maybe reddit has local content and we are seeing different r/popular, I’m in Europe
IDK, seems quite dessert in my end. From my subscriptions most are gone (except vim, vulkan, accidentalgimbli and some very small ones, shame on them) and the front page (edit: r/popular) looks very empty too, with very little posts (many of them from “not too nice” communities anyway, like there was an attempt, publicfreakout and such, which is kind of on brand)
hey, many of us dislike both equally! (specially the push to become the only alternative)
