Dammit I should have posted my exact same solution back when I thought of it for the first time, but I was lazy so eh my fuck up

Handle of number 1, prongs of number 2.

Ahhh, so you are the type of dumb that heard the name and assumed the wrong interpretation and ran with it. The so-called "forever chemicals" are called that because they themselves don't really break down, but they don't give that property to other things. These "forever chemicals" are stuff like teflon, they're stuff that doesn't react with other things and that makes them nonstick, something that can be useful in a bunch of different things besides just nonstick pans, but because they're so nonstick, it's difficult to make them stay in the pan or whatever industrial machine they're a part of, so they can flake off and be in the end product, in our food, water, soil and much more, and since like I said before they're not reactive, they can just stay there as their molecules, forever. Using them in a machine doesn't give the machine more durability or extends it's work life, it just helps it not stick to stuff

Do you even know what forever chemicals are or do you think they're a magic thing that are added to machines to make them last longer?

But they have their chefs prepare and cook their foods, they can afford the clean version, they're still protected from the consequences of their actions because of their money

Nah, secretary would hurt trump more because he most likely thinks it's a woman's job, so trump is a secretary of the president

It's so freaking annoying that these anti cheats don't ever work with Linux... I wonder if steam did their own anti cheat that worked for Linux they could get those games to run on it, but it's a pipedream, it's too complex and it's much better to keep the Linux portion of the market growing through making it more accessible to normal users and then getting the anti cheat companies interested in making a version for Linux instead

Just out of curiosity, what games do you need a windows machine to play that proton can't make work on Linux?

[–] argarath@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

I keep getting called away from my computer in the middle of whatever I'm doing and I don't want to leave it unlocked while I'm away and I don't want to have to reopen 4 or 5 programs including a game, if I could shut it down instead of sleeping I would but sadly I can't

I've even taken out the drive that I had Linux installed, windows still has the issue, it started barely happening a year or so ago but recently it's gotten much much worse and it happens in waves(?) where it'll not have any issues for several days and then one day it will fail to wake up every time it goes to sleep, except when I'm testing. I recall testing the drive check on both Linux and windows, but both came out clean.

My bf and I have narrowed it down to probably being the power supply (last year there were a bunch of power outages after a historical flood here in southern Brazil) but the ram is also unstable at timings that it used to run perfectly fine, but the ram test came out clean so it's a big mess of possibilities RN. I'm just waiting for Monday to be able to buy a new power supply and a UPS to test, but even then we're still unsure if this will truly fix it or if I'll need to get a new motherboard.
