Most original joke

Epic still does good giveaways sometimes, and usually awesome ones over Xmas. Hogwarts was free up to yesterday, and a game called Hordes of Hell is free till tomorrow morning when the next mystery free game is revealed.

I don't WANT to put on all the shit to just go outside without being cold. Just like I don't want to shed off so much once I get back inside just to not be hot.

I know how to dress, dumbass. I don't like the cold, so I wear three layers plus a coat on my upper and two layers on my bottoms along with wool socks and winter boots. ... Several layers. Plus hat, gloves and a face covering if it's also windy.

I can get used to being hot. Plus you get relief in the shade and at night. When it's cold, it's too cold during the day, night, sun, or shade. It's also a PITA to put on several layers of clothes plus a coat. In the summer I can pretty much roll a t shirt, shorts, and flip flops 24\7.

I love summer because it's the only season that's consistently not cold, and I hate being cold more than I hate being hot.

Just to provide an answer of a cynic: "lgbtq people are not one of us"

Thankfully for myself, I love me some refried beans. I can get over the daily recommendation in one meal.

Yes. But I figured that even if it was unlocked, there would be low odds of a good custom rom going on it that could still run the fan and liquid cooler and lights on the thing. Still definitely sucks.

It's an add on a barcode sticker that's already going to be there. There's adds that are annoying or intrusive, and then there's adds that are like this, and no one cares about.

Why is it not ok?

Your Russian story is a little off. It was strontium-90 isotope from the rtg and of the three guys who found it, only one of them died, after like 3 years of pain, suffering, and surgeries. One of the others took surgeries and like a year to recover. It's known as the Lia incident. The poor guys were out in the winter snow way up in some woods and snow and found the two containers of strontium after seeing steam rolling off of them and no snow anywhere around them. Then decided these magical lil containers that looked old as hell and were still literally too hot to hold would be great to carry around and camp up against to keep nice and warm. It happened around 2001, but I'm sure a lot of people around the globe wouldn't put two and two together about not messing with mystery hot boxes found in bfe.

Haven't seen any info over Lemmy about it, so I thought I'd make a post to answer any questions for those interested. I was worried about how well it would work on t mobile in the US, since the phone is missing a band T-Mobile relies on. So far I haven't had any issues though. The cities I usually travel around have had plenty of coverage for data without it and near as I can tell the wifi calling and texting has also been great. I came from a samsung note 20 ultra on t mobile, and switching was as simple as putting my sim card in the RM 11 pro and powering it on.

 

I hand sharpen knives and straight razors. My Great Uncle (long deceased) had this when he owned a barber shop in Kansas City back in the 1940's. Taken to 14,000 grit on water stones and then stropped. Still shaves as well as it looks.

 

I have the one default user "deck" in desktop mode. It looks like it's set to a standard account type.

I can't add a user or change this without a pop up asking "Authentication is required to change user data" and wanting "authenticating as root" password.

Leaving it blank fails. Putting in my sudo password that I have set and at this point double checked multiple times from within Konsole fails as well. I'll go in Konsole and type "passwd" then I'll type the current password and it will say "changing password for deck" and the change works fine. I'll close Konsole, but still have the same issue outside of konsole. Entering a password fails when trying to modify user or update anything.

I can't update anything on desktop now, and I can't figure out what the heck the issue with it is.

Does anyone have a clue? Thanks

Edit\update: Tried a million things. Couldn't get back root access. Made a steam OS boot image on a micro SD card and used it in the steam deck to re-install steam OS but keep my downloads\user files etc. This worked and got back "deck" as admin account as it should be. All better.

 

But no pun in ten did.

 

When using the Gboard keyboard in thunder, every time I go back to the main page the Gboard keyboard pops back up. Has anyone figured out how to use Gboard without this happening?

Twas the night before Christmas

and all through the house

everyone felt shitty

even the mouse.

With mom at the whore house

and dad smokin grass

I settled down

for a nice piece of ass

when out on the lawn

arose such a clatter

I sprang from my piece

to see what was the matter

and out on the lawn

I seen some big dick

and I knew in a moment

it must be St.Nick

he flew down my chimney like a bat out of hell

and i knew in a moment

the fucker had fell

He filled all our stocking with pretzels and beer

and a big rubber dick

for my brother, the queer.

then he rose up the chimney with a thunderous fart

the son of a bitch blew my chimney apart

cussing and cursing as he rode out of sight.

pissing on all

having one hell of a night.

 
 

Just curious if anyone else has had issues with their track pads on the OLED models.

My left side touch pad doesn't "depress" down at all in the middle, and requires much more force around the sides to depress down and "click". If you go by the haptic pressure measurement, the right side will click at around 3,000 anywhere on the pad,, but the left side takes about 10,000 around the edges and never does in the middle.

 

All of a sudden my clutch went from totally normal to very hard to press down. It's now been this way for quite a long time. It's a hydraulic clutch (clutch was replaced by a shop a few months prior to the issue, but me and the shop....did not get along.) in an 06 tribute with a 4 cylinder motor.

Looking for what I'll need done in order to not have to break my leg to shift the thing. Thanks.

I figure it's something the shop didn't do correctly, as it was supposed to have new flywheel, pressure plate, clutch disc, pilot bearing and throw-out bearing but there's no way to verify they replaced it all or did it correctly and the problem started suddenly about 3 months later.
