Hardware raid is fine as long as you can still get the same hardware RAID card or Motherboard.

With OpenSUSE are you using the open source nvidia driver, or did you add the nvidia hosted repo and install their proprietary drivers?

The nvidia owned repo did work better for me.

But could be memory leak.

For anyone with laptop, and onboard graphics and nvidia RTX I had to install an opensuse swicher package to ensure appa start on the right GPU (right click option on the app) I forget the app name at the moment, it wanst the bumblebee or optimus, it was something else, Switcheroo maybe.

Don’t paint in outlines, it flattens the image. Sometimes clarity in front and fuzzy as it goes to the background will give illusion of depth. Check some photos of rolling hills and how the shading of light falls on them.

I don’t think I have ever used that app. Just cmd and powershell alone, or putty. I have been avoiding windows ssh since they log server and user name that accesses an ssh connection and sends it to microsoft during the connection attempt.

Install Firefox browser, you will have a reader mode icon near end of the URL. Click that and the paywall is bypassed and you get to read all the text without ads also.

If you happen to have a Pixel with GrapheneOS, it comes with Vanadium browser, in its accessibility settings you can turn on a notification mode for simplified web pages. It gives you a popoup when it detects a paywall, and you click the popo button to convert it.

Yes, I sometimes have this conversation with my spouse. They want to grab something off amazon at $29, and I’m like If you wait a day I can grab it at the local pharmacy for $8.99. Buying it at $29 is just driving prices up.

Do you mean powershell? If so you can install it on Linux https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/scripting/install/install-powershell-on-linux?view=powershell-7.5

You have to do the voice training segment for good results, but is works well except when a word or phrase sounds like another word.

Metaverse was like the AI nobody asked for getting pushed into apps. Nobody wanted Wii Mii like hangout rooms where you have to water a clunky headset.

So stupid. All you do is say OK Google send message to (Name) and talk to text does it.

I saw this with my printer ink. It was an older unpopular model. $8 a cartridge, but later $39, then another time $17, then down to $8. Like no way to budget for that variation

Ha. On Windows I had this ancient Ethernet Canon IP printer. Windows hated it, even with the supplied Canon drivers and network Utility. It always needed messing with every time to get it to show up as a printer on the network.

When I moved to OpenSUSE I went into YAST2 printer discovery. It found the printer right away, and suggested a model, and asked if I wanted to install the GutenPrint driver for it. Yes please. And do you want to announce this printer to others on your network (via CUPS) Yes. Done. Worked 100% with no Canon utilities.

Well now that I’m aging, I do have moments of blanking out. I used to be always in “recording” mode of my daily activities, which is probably why I need quiet down time. But lately I’ll take out the recycling, to empty into our condo bins, and when I get back my wife says “where’s the tote?”. And I’m like, " Ah, probably down by the condo bin where I left it". Lol

She wasn’t initially at that level to comprehend the sun as an object with intense heat and super mass. She saw the sun as a lightbulb inside the earth dome.

You are on some weird tangent dude. Have fun.

😀 I haven’t IQ tested her. As a note I’m what she considers a smart engineery computer guy, but she can beat me at almost every game of Scrabble (like 400 vs 250). She can beat me at Tetris every time. She has played this 1010! android game for 3 years straight and not died once. Which is incredible to me. So she has reasoning skills and planning, and some abstract shape solving ability that is very tuned.

But she has zero science background, grew up Catholic, where god did everything, so she never thought critically about the humans on a planet situation.

But she doesn’t pay a whole lot of attention to things outside of her realm. So maybe it is an attention issue not an intelligence issue. i.e. she saw this red car go by and said thats nice and a bit different looking. I said yeah it’s our neighbours down the street She said I’ve never noticed it, how do you know its the same car? So I said: it’s had the front emblem taken off and re painted. Suspension is lowered, there is a performance parts logo on driver rear quarter window, it has smooth rims without a lot of cutouts, and a black subtle wing added on the tail. When she asked how I knew all that I said because we see it everyday on our evening walk together. For her she’s walked by it 100s of times without remembering it ever being parked on our street.

Well I had to explain it as if it were a kids class. We didn’t get into deep theory , constants, equations type stuff. Just overall concepts.

Saying earth surface was round and each country gets different day and night sequences etc, she immediate went to why aren’t Australians dangling off if they are at the bottom. So we had to go over center of gravity and gravity itself.

Which led to the Sun and moon being outside the earth. And I had to talk about the immense distances and speed of light concepts. (Since she thought she could get to the sun in about 45 minutes)

Then the questions came about why, if the earth rotates for day and night, aren’t people flying off. So I had to go over gravity and inertial laws. Referencing something she knew like being in a car and dropping something, it drops relative to you and doesn’t fly back at 100km/h ( inertial frame of reference stuff).

She was obviously skeptical still, especially about stars being distant suns.

And then she came to the conclusion of: how did we get here, if we are tiny spec in the universe on a planet. So we touched on evolution theory.

We eventually got her kids solar system books, and watched some good documentaries on netlix about these subjects and the one about the stages the earth has gone through.

She eventually understood the concepts, but still though we were trying to trick her. Until she went skydiving and realized “the air is 3D” ( her words ). All along she saw the sky as a background 2d backdrop on the INSIDE of the snow globe earth.

I don’t know how she missed this concept most of her life, I guess her circle just didn’t include people that talked about science stuff, and she took her cues from what she could see…flat ground, sky seems far away, sun is tiny but looks like it hits the mountains and water.

You don’t seem to be making much sense.
