I have that but with my right hand. It makes proper high-fiving difficult and people just assumed I was lying about not being able to close my fingers properly. It’s really validating to hear someone else with a similar issue.

I named my main & guest networks “I beat my Wi-Fi” and “Tell my Wi-Fi love her”. I’m gonna create a third network to steal yours.

Someone correct me if I’m wrong, but that greentext doesn’t accurately reflect how BitLocker works (unless there’s some missing context). Assuming you override the boot order using the one-time boot option and live boot that way, rebooting afterwards won’t affect the TPM or BitLocker because nothing has actually changed. If you change the boot order in the BIOS / UEFI settings and move USB boot above the normal boot drive in order to live boot, then the TPM will see a change and BitLocker will lock. But you can just change the boot order back to the way it was and the TPM will be happy again and BitLocker will automatically unlock. Unless you do something really stupid like clearing the TPM altogether.

I guess it’s also possible the person didn’t just live boot and tried to install Zorin while live booted, which would cause issues, but I doubt that’s the case here.

It’s called The Coffee Table

Not even, just an extra assignment for me. I did get poor grades in handwriting (an unofficial category on the report card) all the time, I think I was always destined to be a computer keyboard person.

I had the same experience. A teacher even tried to break me of the habit in elementary school by making me write 100 sentences “the correct way” while the rest of the class got to watch a movie. That just gave me 100 chances to realize how much I hated “the correct way”.

I’m constantly astounded that people seem to unironically enjoy that movie. I don’t want to rain on anyone’s parade so I stay away from discussions about it, but I saw it in theaters (because I also love Jason Statham) and immediately regretted it. It felt like it was written as a joke, but then tried to take itself seriously, and failed at both. I feel like I’m getting pranked by people saying they like that movie.

Apparently the woman from the greentext was known as “plastixfangs” online. She deleted a significant amount of her content, but random porn sites still have some of her posts. For example, https://pornpics.click/@plastixfangs (NSFW)

I’ve used a similar project in the past: https://github.com/DrewThomasson/ebook2audiobook

It’s cool that more options are becoming available for ebook to audio conversions.

I still buy those eggs, the notes they put in are cute.

I use subgen to generate my subtitles locally. I have it linked to Bazarr but apparently there’s webhooks for Jellyfin.

I switched from Windows to EndeavourOS a few months ago and haven’t had any issues on my personal computer, it’s amazing.

I also have EndeavourOS as a VM on my work laptop and I somehow managed to break systemd-boot when trying to do a system update though. The system update died halfway through and I defaulted to the classic solution of rebooting, which definitely made things worse because my boot partition in the VM broke. The great thing about Linux, and especially Arch, is the tools and knowledge readily available to fix things and everything was working again (with no data loss) in under 15 minutes. I’ve dealt with similar problems on Windows and either had to accept data loss or deal with significant headaches trying to resolve what should be a simple issue because the operating system refuses to provide basic information.

The story is called “Sally” (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sally_(short_story)). I couldn’t find a readily available copy of The Complete Robot online, but Z-Library has it.

Even if some of the information is outdated, although I believe it’s all still valid, the main points / TL;DR are absolutely relevant. It’s unlikely that the main bureaus will change, and although the exact steps for freezing may change over time, the emphasis on freezing is important.

There are actually more than 3 providers and you should put a freeze on everything you can. You only need unfrozen credit for applying for new lines of credit (loans, credit cards, etc), and unfreezing is a quick process (15 minutes or so).

Here’s a pretty comprehensive guide for protecting yourself: https://old.reddit.com/r/IdentityTheft/comments/uvv3ij/psa_freezing_your_three_main_credit_reports_is/

It’s better to take these steps before you get your identity stolen rather than after. These steps can prevent your leaked information from being used against you.
