Snapshots in general IMO, like say cachyOS + limine + snapper

Snapper creates snapshots when updating, and if you ever get a bad boot, you shut off and pick an earlier snapshot in the initial boot menu. It’s one of the options you can pick during the initial setup, if I recall correctly, so you don’t need to set it up yourself and risk making mistakes

What kind of content do you create? That might help you find someone :)

It depends on how the person is sharing the image.

If they upload it directly or link to the image file on a website that supports it, then it will appear nicely. Otherwise you might need to click on it in order to see it

Most of the new devices I see are using the hard to find components (DDR5) while refurbished devices from a few years ago have more than enough RAM for school. Also capacity matters more than generation for RAM, assuming we’re talking DDR4 vs DDR5

I wish I learned this sooner, but the best device for school is a generic laptop that you can easily find guides and replacement parts for. That way you can fix things quickly in the middle of a term instead of needing to wait months for the manufacturer to deal with it

In statements, Lithuania, Canada and the EU said the program of the conference did not align with their official views on the US role in disinformation

Canada’s withdrawal comes the same week the Globe and Mail reported that some people involved in campaigning for Alberta independence had met on both sides of the border with U.S. entities.

GAC’s move also comes as the country is embroiled in an often bitter and personal trade dispute with U.S. President Donald Trump’s administration.

Good to hear, hopefully they can get it sorted out :)

and we love you too :) I didn’t know people were raising doubts and calling you a bot

For anyone that’s unsure, I had a number of conversations with @DaMonsterKnees@lemmy.world way back when they first asked about this community, and I remember those as one of the most genuine interactions I’ve had on this site. I’d like to say I’ve got a pretty good eye for LLMs and bots on this site after being an admin for a few years (and a mod much longer than that), and I’m very confident that DaMonsterKnees is indeed a carbon-based and wonderful human.

Anyone is free to link to this comment if those questions come up again :)

I’m surprised I’ve never seen this one before

I love the little guy’s face lol

A trio of shadowed men drive the first into a dark corner.

Oh I they cornered the person lol

I thought the blood type immediately changed, turning them grey, and then they… exploded…

Stickers are important to the people I use signal with, and being able to set favourites is something they’ve asked me about in the past. Glad to see it

I haven’t done any myself, but I’ve seen people discuss common issues in videos about upgrading a retro console (ex. Fixing known issues and ticking time bombs before spending the money to upgrade the device with bigger storage or better ports)

Otherwise see if there are popular guides on ifixit: https://www.ifixit.com/

Also, we had some unexpected extra costs (over 1000,–) when we had to pay taxes for the foundation (strange, for a non-profit…). I’ll see if we can get an accountant to check this, but also accountants are costly…

Ouch

Do you have any non-profit support organizations, local to where you have your accounts, that might be able to help for cheap or pro-bono?

Thank you for all the work you do!

That’s more the fault of the payment processor than the LW team. Often you can’t change stuff like that

I’m curious where they ended up dropping the little dude off. How far does a boat like that go in “a few hours”?

He did all that work swimming over, but also they’re “highly social” and the article makes it sound like he ended up there by accident. I trust the wildlife experts to have done everything correctly, but it just reads like they took him to the middle of the ocean and made him walk the plank 😄

Gus was an emperor penguin (Aptenodytes forsteri) who made international headlines in 2024 as the first of his species recorded in Australia. Gus’s journey of over 3,500 kilometers (2,200 miles) from Antarctica to Ocean Beach, Western Australia, captured the attention of scientists, wildlife enthusiasts, and the general public. Despite extensive speculation, the actual reasons behind Gus’s exceptionally long swim remain unknown.

https://www.cbsnews.com/news/emperor-penguin-australia-gus-2200-miles-antarctic-released-at-sea-20-days-later/

The boat traveled for several hours from the state’s most southerly city of Albany before the penguin was released into the Southern Ocean, but the government didn’t give the distance in its statement.

Some more images from that second article:

Earlier at the beach:

but calling it two pieces connected by a handle is the only way I could think of to describe it and actually be understood

Yes completely fair! I’m actually not sure about what would count as a separate “piece” with glassware and ceramics. There’s probably a mereological argument for why its one or the other

I think it’s an art piece now

On that note

these two pieces together

Is it all one big piece, or is it three pieces working together 😄

I wasn’t on this side of the internet back then, so maybe this isn’t that interesting, but apparently there are multiple variants

Oh wow that’s neat

Does the ecosystem have something like Mealie and Tandoor, where a nontechnical user can drop in a link to add a recipe?

Which might also make sense, if drivers are aware that a lot of kids will be walking around, they might be more careful.

I wonder how the number of deaths has changed over time. Road and vehicle safety have improved, lighting improved, it’s more common for kids to have reflective objects on them, and fewer kids are going out. Maybe it was a lot worse in the past?

So discussions like the ones in this thread have helped save lives, but I’d much rather the post itself wasn’t misleading

Oh I was meaning to check when I scheduled this for 😄

Nice timing since North of North just ended the season
