There's a wonderful tumbler post that I saw a few year ago about why horses are a hot mess and it's all because they don't have enough toes:

I would class myself as reasonably computer literate but have always used windows (since win95 so that dates me). I'm looking to get used to Linux and have stuck mint onto an old notebook to get used to the system.

We've been up and running for a couple of months now and I've got the basics going but I'm starting to collect questions on how to do this, best ways to achieve that etc, in times past there would probably be a good forum community I could start posting on to learn but I don't know where to go these days.

Where do you take your open questions to, to learn and improve.

My big computer is knackered. It's about 10 years old now and properly starting to chug on even the newer indy games I like. But with a 16 month old toddler in the house and a crunch on cost of living upgrading I have nothing to spare on a new computer especially how much components are costing these days.

It's a distant ancestor to the hunter s Thompson diet. It just needs more drugs.

I'm sure that's a farrow and ball paint colour.

Recall training is so much easier if you get them started early. Once your puppy has had all his or her vaccines and are good to get off the lead at ground level you can get started.

Let them off the lead wherever you're in a safe space and won't meet any hazards like traffic, up to about 6 months old they're still in puppy mode and will never stray far from you. Every time they run back to you just repeat your recall phrase like "[name] come" and when they get to you lots of praise and a tasty treat. In no time at all they'll be bounding straight back to you as soon as you use your recall phrase and all the other dog owners in the park will be saying how well trained they are.

Truly a modern Don Quixote for our age.

Disagree, sorry.

Thorium is unproven in a commercial setting, molten salt reactors in general are plagued with technological difficulties for long term operations and are limited currently to just a few research reactors dotted about the globe.

There's no denying that originally a lot of the early nuclear reactors chose uranium because of its ability to breed plutonium for nuclear weapons proliferation but nowadays that's not a factor in selection. What is a factor is proven, long-lasting designs that will reliably produce power without complex construction and expensive maintenance.

Hello all, so something recently changed with the Google photos app on my pixel 6 and it's automatically uploaded all my photos filled the space out and is now complaining angrily that I've used all the space.

I don't want to use Google backup, I have a OneDrive account and it backs up all my photos. The Google backup is redundant but now it's deprecated my photos app by filling it with pointless warning messages.

See our house is totally opposite, I get up early, take myself downstairs feed the pets and have a nice quiet morning. My wife will arrive at bed at 1am, throw the bedroom light on, rattle all the drawers for PJ's, loudly demand I wake up so I can watch whatever Facebook video she's been watching and announce we should have a serious conversation about where we should book for holidays this year.

When I complain, it's 1am and I gotta get up at 6:30 suddenly I'm the reason we never talk anymore...

This comment feels so reactionary and so off the mark based on the op comment that I'm not certain this isn't a bait post... Which I've just been hooked by... I should stop talking now.

Ahh the Lemmy PQI (porn quality index) has jumped leaps the past few weeks. Just need a few of the more estoric NSFW subs to transfer across to appease my filthy corrupted soul and my journey to Lemmy will be complete.

Unless I missed it I couldn't search for a specific comment in a thread.
