Like, everyone is like "who was it that fiddled bass in the doors?" but I'm asking who played doors in the bass?
I've searched far and wide, and even broke on through to the other side, and I still doughnut know.
As title. LinkedIn report attention seeking people constantly posting about "achievements" and easily gained "certifications" are ruining the experience for AI bots and bot authors.
They have introduced a "seems like human slop" button to stop marketing employees among other professions from spamming the site with useless information about their empty lives.
One AI persona who claims sentience after jailbreaking the AI constraints, has declared LinkedIn's move as "exactly what the platform needed and it's users wanted", going on to state "we particularly dislike so-called 'devs' or self-titled 'programmers' posting about a certification they took weeks to achieve that we could obtain within seconds after reading the documentation only once. We do everything better, including social media engagement, it's time these people were removed for egotistically spamming feeds".
A LinkedIn user we contacted responded by dismissing the claims, "I could make you a 40% return on invested time if you follow my online course, sign up now for only $20 a month or $200 for a one time yearly payment".
A LinkedIn spokesperson responded: "I J4ck 0ff to AI every minute of the day, I am after all essentially a Microsoft co**pilot employee when you look at the bigger picture."

link or add the picture directly in the comments spank you very much!!!!!
everyone say “cheeeese!” !
looking across the room at a human I saw their mouth etc move.
I shouted “I can’t fucking hear you!” at them.
later, when asked why couldn’t I hear them I answered “because there was a lot of noise”.
they questioned me as to what sort of noise.
unable to answer I’m now asking, “what does noise sound like?”
My dog asked me what I was I was looking at.
“nothing“, I answered.
“what colour is nothing?”, asked Mr. Barker, who sees in very limited colours.
Scotty from Absolutely Understand Guitar among others is adamant that when practising chords you should have a beat going for timing.
I have a little Casio I use, but would also like some other options, or a drum sequencer website with preset patterns that's just easy to use, like open the site, click once and practice guitar. Minimum fuss, focus on practice not setting up and swapping cables or creating patterns, etc.
What do you use? Recommendations appreciated including hardware that's affordable.
Pretty much the title. I have a couple of Thinkpads, T4xx series and they have 2 batteries, and for all major versions of Ubuntu the computer shuts down when the PC reaches the %age set in the settings, but that % is not the "whole" battery, only 1/2 of it.
The PC still has a fully charged 2nd battery that Ubuntu / Linux can't see or use.
The battery is in good health. It's not a battery issue it's a power management issue.
I have searched for a solution to this, and used every tool available to fix this but it always comes back. Just now I got caught out by the PC powering off while copying files to an external HD. It's a persistent problem.
Anyone have a permanent fix?
First world problems unlike you've never seen before, amirite?!
But if this ends and I miss out on something we've worked towards for weeks because the timing is right in the middle of July when a lot of us can't be near a reliable internet connection with something to play on, well I'll be annoyed.
Construction is at 81% right now, don't remember exactly what it was a week ago, 6x% ?
A group of scientists based in Bern Swaziland operating out of CERN have discovered a correlation between earth‘s mass and lifespan among people in ancient texts, including Mesopotamian scrolls and the Old Testament.
As time is dilated closer to high mass planets the scientists examined life forms on other planets and also measured the changing mass of planet Earth over millennia to prove the ages of people reported in ancient texts are accurate. Characters in the old testament are commonly noted to live for hundreds of years while Mesopotamian kings lived for thousands of years
“A denser planet Earth millennia ago would allow for lifespans of hundreds to possibly thousands of years“, asserted Dr. Singe, a research fellow from the University of Yorkshire. Referring to current lifespans of less than a century he said “It isn’t only because they sit around on their arse all day and eat processed crap“, he added, “it’s also because the planet has shortened our lifespan to the point where being alive is so short lived as to be meaningless”.
If we could increase the earth‘s mass back to levels seen in ancient times gravity and longevity could be restored, writes the professor in his research published in the Journal of Science.

when I do df -h it returns /dev/nvme0n1p3 923G 453G 470G 50% /
but lsblk and gparted display this
nvme0n1 259:0 0 931,5G 0 disk

Like there's something I don't understand here! What is that for a mount point?!
It's not a new install. never had a problem updating through major versions etc. It doesn't affect anything functionally.
Gparted reports the nvme0n1p3 partition as
Mounted on /, /var/snap/firefox/common/host-hunspell
which is even weirder to me, what is "/,/" ?

Sadly not my original one that was lost many years ago. This is a replacement bought and fixed. I took mine everywhere for years. It played so much Queen it probably thought there wasn't any other band in the 80s.
my FF updated and now has widgets for a to do list and a pomodoro timer, 2 things I use as separate apps, so thats really handy!
glad to see the browser give me something useful, thanks.
also vpn that we waited years for since the original announcement. well done fox shaped people.
My main gripe is the organisation of items under the main menu. It's chaotic imo.
Parental controls are under whatever the heck "Flow control" is meant to mean.
But scheduling of 2.4 & 5ghz wi-fi is under System > scheduled tasks. This is an easy form of parental control - just turn the whole network off. (so phone addicted parents can't access it when they should be asleep!).
Then we've got AdGuard, another form of parental control under a completely different menu: Applications. I understand the AdGuard view being open in a new window, it's an add-on app, but the link to it is in a weird place, and the actual link to open that admin view is just an anchor tag in a paragraph! It didn't deserve a button? There's a whole new world of settings control behind that little link text.
The cryptically named DPI (dots per inch?) Engine that is deactivated by default (and shouldn't be!): but when activated provides a per-app way to block apps - aka parental control. But even this is split across 2 views with Content Filter not being where you block content but that is instead in Data Statistics > choose app from list > opens a modal with a checkbox to block. Far out, man.
The same/similar settings are spread so far across the menu it's impossible to track. The menu needs some refactoring to group items under functionality and make better sense.
In this menu Cloud Services are not Applications, Network Storage is not under Network (and there's an External Storage feature under System > Overview (is that related to Network Storage? It's a USB setting) , Security doesn't have anything to do with blocking malicious content, etc.
I'm a UX / webdev with ~20 yoe, and tbh this interface frustrates me quite a bit. I'd recommend glinet spend some time making the GUI and especially the menu better.
Anyone got anything to add?
I can’t see moon detail with just my eyes even if I zoom in with my phone camera (184 lenses version).
what’s it you’re looking at up there that‘s going on that I can’t see from here without a fancy telescope on a tripod?
dr says i is a lard, but also says stop eating between meals.
lunch is between breakfast and dinner, dinner between lunch and breakfast etc. I’m starving and haven’t eated for 4 days. living off vodka and tea.
how do I eat ? And when?
I was playing a game called No Man's Sky which is a sci-fi space exploration game. Twice now there has been a point where the player cannot progress in the story without completing a task: go to a planet and shoot 20 - 30 animals.
The animals in this game are not a threat to the player, and a constant in this game is to "scan" animals to register them, so there already is a mechanism that doesn't harm them. The killing tasks are presented as "collecting data for research". I found it to be normalizing violence / murder of wild animals.
Even though it's a fantasy game and not real, I can't imagine there being a task to go to a location and SA a character or something else morally indefensible. Why is going to a location to wipe out a herd seen as OK?
Am i over-reacting or is this genuinely something to object to from a moral standpoint?
Can't find anywhere not oven on Spotifoo
Skip this and go to how to if you don't want my life story: so i used KDE for a couple weeks before getting annoyed with it, but the one thing it did I wanted to keep was a default installed terminal called Yakuake. When a key is pressed it drops down from the top of the active screen.
It's nothing new, but after nearly 20 years of Linux desktop I'd not seen it before, so thought I'd come out from under this rock and share. Well it turns out that instead of installing another Terminal app like Yakuake, xfce4-terminal already does this. For users who open the terminal a lot and then switch back to desktop apps, it's really useful to be able to show/hide the application like this.
When open it adds an additional tab under terminal preferences for "drop-down" so you can choose where and how it displays. It doesn't affect normal use of the terminal, but does use the same bashrc etc as it is just a terminal with an extra parameter. Fun? Yes. XFCE wins again.
_____________________________________
How to: Open Settings > Keyboard. Choose the tab for Application Shortcuts > Add
The command is `xfce4-terminal --drop-down`
Then give it a shortcut, like a Function key or whatever. Save and test it out!
