Oh, the irony.
Bit oblivious, more like.
What value does a foreign language have for Bob, who lives in the middle of the country?
I learned two languages in school, have never used either one with a native speaker of that language.

I disagree, but very funny, have my upvote.
Uh, this is the ADHD community, lol.
I’d say it’s a very strong that OP has ADHD.
I hate cigarettes. Grew up with a chain-smoking parent.
But hey, if that’s the mechanism that you’ve found that works for you, great!
And I hope you’ll be able to find a better-for-you mechanism, while accepting that life is trade-offs, and we can’t expect to have ideal solutions to everything.
Gets in my face and stares intently
Hahahaha, that’s awesome!
52·14 hours agoBecause Linux and Windows take a different approach to memory management.
And Android is based on Linux.
Ah, yes, show your ignorance of how Linux works by being judgemental.
Impressive.
Not discussing Vietnam including both Iraq & Afghanistan,
But you already opened that can
First, the DC voltage of these fans is a separate voltage system from the AC/mains of the house.
Whether the 12v comes from a transformer or a switching power supply, the DC and AC circuits are effectively separated by that device.
The ground reference of the 12v system exists only within that system (and is provided by the transformer/power supply).
Consider the tranformer/power supply to be a battery with a positive and negative terminal. Inside, a chemical reaction will take place that moves electrons from one set of plates to another, leaving “holes” in one set, and extra electrons on the other.
This creates an imbalance - an electrical potential - and entropy says everything should try to balance. So those extra electrons provide the voltage, and once a circuit is made, will immediately try to balance the potential by moving through the circuit to the other terminal.
Using a transformer/power supply provides those electrons (and a sink - somewhere for those electrons to return to) from AC/mains voltage.
This is a pretty simple way to view it, there are more details that an EE would take me to task for, but it’s a good starting point.
3·2 days agoDon’t buy any kind of drive from aliexpress.
Shop here: https://diskprices.com/ and even then pay attention to the source.
3·2 days agoI’m impressed the case has handled the changes. Cases back then weren’t much to work with.
Yea, motherboard is my metric. It’s what defines the base system capability.
You have backups or replicants of your data, right?

Linux isn’t the desktop of choice for business, which is what MS cares about. That’s where they make their money.
And that means SMB will run Windows Server to manage user accounts and the environment in general.
Add Excel to that equation, and Linux has no relevance in the business world (and before you mention any OSS competitor I have one word: tables. And I’ll add decades of automation).
Yes, you could do things like Linux as the OS then run virtualization layers or Wine or whatever, but there’s no value in that for a typical SMB, and a lot of risk.
Enterprise is even more of a lock-in for MS, because it’s a simple choice, they get all the support they need from MS, and it “just works” for them.
MS has a mature user, machine, and software management infrastructure that’s well known by millions of technical people. Desktop and office apps have the same familiarity (and again I’ll mention decades of extant automation built around excel).
Linux doesn’t stand a chance against MS in a business environment for the desktop. Can it be done? Sure. But in very specific use-cases and hoping you’ll never grow into a circumstance where you suddenly need Office or some other element to interop with a vendor or client. This is exactly the situation management doesn’t want to be blamed for.
Servers are different question altogether, and have been since 2000.
It’s self-evident
First came the dinosaurs…
It’s “de lementations”… Gotta say it right!
You mean was in the trash and now with you, right? Right?
