In German there's an insult: "Sitzpinkler". It means "someone who sits down when peeing". Never heard anyone use it seriously though.

You're looking at the wrong numbers. Most people won't notice the difference in transfer speeds for large files. Most people will notice boot and loading times, where the results are diminishing.
Let's take a theoretical system that has an HDD and boots in around 30 seconds.
It gets upgraded with an SSD. According to your numbers, the Boot time would be better by a factor of around 3 or maybe 4, making the Boot only take around 10 seconds. That's a difference of 20 seconds, clearly noticeable.
Now it gets upgraded to an nvme drive. The speed increases by an even greater factor of around 7 or so, but you barely notice that because the PC only boots 7 seconds or so faster, much less noticeable than the 20 second difference before, despite the drives being blazing fast in comparison.
I'm not saying nvmes are worthless or anything. Just that in day to day use for most people its not as noticeable as the HDD to SSD upgrade.

They are essentially doing the good side of capitalism - making stuff cheaper
I mean yeah, it's cheaper due to technological advancement, but I fail to see how that's an effect of capitalism. I'd argue similar developments would have been made even without capitalism. I just don't think we would have the desire to leave this place without capitalism, but that's besides the point.

But the jump from SATA SSD to nvme is much less noticeable than the one from HDD to SATA SSD

Cooking doesn't usually go much higher than 200 - 250C (400 - 500F). Cigarettes (and I assume joints similarly) reach 900C (1650F) when puffing. I'm not sure at which point aluminum produces fumes, but I dont think the cooking argument holds up.

Ice had the experience that toothpicks break too easily to clean my grinder, especially what's in the little gap between the lid and the outside of the grinding chamber if that makes sense. But glad it works for you!
I also removed my kief tray once I started earning enough to never really run out lol

But I'd rather have steel than aluminum in my weed. Aluminum oxide fumes are carcinogenic when inhaled, so I'd rather avoid it.
I realize worrying about cancer when talking about smoking is ironic, but still.

Ive never bathed by grinder in isopropyl in 6+ years and it still grinds like new every time I clean it with my pocket knife. But I did get a steel grinder to make sure I can scrape all I want without getting aluminum in my weed

Wondering the same
Edit: after a quick google session it seems like usually the reboot command is linked to systemctl so it should be pretty much the same thing as far as I understand.

I once had a racing condition that got tipped over by the debugger. So similar behavior to what's in the meme, but the code started working once I put in the print calls as well. I think I ended up just leaving the print calls, because I suck at async programming
Edit: sadly, Auto Tab Discard did not fix my issue. Firefox is also set to block audio (including video with audio to my understanding) by default, which I never changed so I don't think that helps with this issue either. So I installed pop on my laptop a few months ago, and recently got another one where I installed arch. On both laptops I mostly just watched series, and often times I'd just leave the laptop with the media player still open. Now to the issue: Randomly throughout the day, it would just start playing whatever I left open, usually after a few hours of being left alone. Now that I think about it, I think it was only crunchyroll. Does anyone experience anything similar, or might even have an idea as to how to fix this or what causes this? Is it just crunchyroll being buggy?
I was thinking about some raw fish or something like that, he seems to really like salmon. Any suggestions or things to watch out for?
I am designing a tshirt with a friend and we wanted to put some japanese on it. Since my japanese is extremely basic (こんにちは、ミカです) I wanted to ask whether the symbols DeepL gave us mean what we think it means. We want to have a skeleton inside a water bottle and the text should read "stay hydrated" and we got these symbols: 水分補給. Do they work in that context? Or are there any better suggestions we could use? Thanks in advance!
I use KDE on arch and would like to achieve the following behavior: Whatever way I launch Konsole, I want it to check whether there already is a Konsole instance. If one exists, it should be brought into focus, and if no instance exists, one should be launched. I am unable to find such an option in the Konsole settings, even though I found a roughly 1 year old forum entry mentioning such a setting. Was it removed or am I just blind? Or do I need some optional dependency? Alternatively, it would be fine if this could simply kick in when I use my Super+K shortcut, which I've set up. Maybe there's a way to call Konsole from the terminal like that? I tried using `konsole --force-reuse` but it didn't seem to do the trick, and `konsole --new-tab` does not bring Konsole into the foreground. Edit: Here's a script that does this, by [@Audalin@lemmy.world](https://lemmy.world/u/Audalin) ``` #!/bin/bash WIN="$(kdotool search --class org.kde.konsole | head -1)" if [[ "$WIN" != "" ]]; then kdotool windowactivate "$WIN" else konsole fi ``` `kdotool` is available in AUR as [`kdotool-git`](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/kdotool-git)
I recently bought a Drop ENTR, and I would like to use the media keys. On the drop.com website it says that using FN + the F-keys should work, but “Fn hotkeys may work with Windows operating system only.”. Well, for me it doesn’t work. Any ideas as to why that could be, or how I could go about creating a workaround? obligatory I use arch btw
I have 2 relevant drives. The system drive, and a drive with my game files. The drive with the game files is mounted. However, it is not displayed under "Other devices" and I am unable to select it from /dev/ Installed it using yay from AUR (aur/heroic-games-launcher-bin 2.14.1-1). Any ideas as to what may be causing this, or how to go about troubleshooting?
It's the soundtrack from another trucking game but it's just so hilarious. We almost always put it on our discord music bot when we play.
As a side note, the high gear in the twinsteer is insane, especially with the high range gearbox.
I think the community here is much better than reddit, so I'm trying here first. I've been living here for a few years now but haven't yet found anyone who enjoys playing smash bros with me. I'm by no means an expert in the game but I am good enough that noone I met here so far was a real challenge. I would describe my skill level as advanced casual. I'm also happy to meet in some kind of public space first to get rid of the serial killer vibes, but my goal definitely is a friend to play smash bros with. Shoot me a DM if you're interested :)
I am pretty new to linux so please excuse any foolish mistakes. I am trying to manually install [gpu-screen-recorder](https://git.dec05eba.com/gpu-screen-recorder/about/)(GSR) to get rid of an annoying password prompt that I can't seem to disable in the flatpak version. I know there must be some way to do it because this prompt didn't show up on Pop!_OS, but maybe it's just not possible on Nobara KDE/Fedora. I noticed in the install.sh of GSR, that `setcap cap_sys_admin+ep` is called on the executable. So if you know any way of replicating something like that for flatpaks that is simpler than installing GSR manually, feel free to let me know. I tried checking the dependencies listed, but was unable to figure out how to really make sure they are installed and accessible for GSR. For example: I tried checking for `libglvnd` by running `dnf list libglvnd`. Sure enough, it returns ``` Installed Packages libglvnd.i686 1:1.6.0-2.fc38 @anaconda libglvnd.x86_64 1:1.6.0-2.fc38 @anaconda ``` But then I tried checking for `mesa`, so I ran `dnf list mesa`. But it returned ``` Available Packages mesa.src 23.2.1-1.fc38 nobara-baseos mesa.src 23.2.1-1.fc38 nobara-baseos-multilib ``` It says 'available packages', so not installed, right? Well, `glxinfo -B` says I am using mesa 23.2.1, so it seems to be installed, I guess? So, just assuming I had everything necessary, I cloned the repo and tried to just run `install.sh`. However, of course I get an error message: `wayland-scanner: command not found`. I am a bit confused because I am running on wayland, and checked using `loginctl show-session 1 -p Type`. How do I properly make sure the dependencies are available?
I understand they are important and are what makes linux relatively secure compared to windows. However, when I boot my PC, I don't want to spend a whole minute to type my password into different promts that keep getting hidden behind other windows that are starting up. I am using Nobara KDE now, but previously when I was using Pop!_OS, none of these prompts showed up. Currently I have 2 prompts after logging on. One for my keychain when discord autostarts, and one for flatpak when gpu-screen-recorder launches. Interestingly, discord works just fine, with auto logon, regardless of whether the keychain prompt gets canceled or filled with the password. Any idea on how to get rid of them? I'd prefer if really only that startup prompt was gone, and it would still ask me for the password whenever it launches any other way.
I recently switched to Linux. First I tried Pop_OS, and am now on Nobara. On both systems I have this issue, that when I open a YouTube video in a new tab, and immediately start fullscreen, it doesn't properly do it. As you probably know, YouTube videos start playing before the whole page has finished loading. There are some placeholders for the title and description etc, but the actual text is still loading despite the video already playing. If I enter fullscreen during this moment, the browser enters full screen mode, but not the video/website. What I remember happening on windows is that when the page finished loading, the video would enter proper fullscreen mode. Now, on Linux, that doesn't seem to work and the website just gets displayed regularly with the browser now in fullscreen mode. Any ideas on what could cause this or how to troubleshoot this?
... it looks like ended up breaking my PC on the move somehow... I even went ahead and removed the GPU to prevent it from breaking but it looks like that's actually what ended up being broken 🙃 (I have 4 debug LEDs. When I turn it on it goes from CPU to DRAM to VGA and gets stuck there). I'll have to see if I can get it to work somehow after I get home later, but I'm afraid I was unlucky enough to actually have killed my GPU with static electricity. And of course it had to be the most expensive part....
I am currently in the process of moving (actual date of move is Sunday) and I have almost everything packed up in boxes. It was a bunch of work and I can't really think of anything else to be proud of right now.
