If you are in Canada they have to sell them unlocked. Not sure your location.

Always depends on context. If you are out somewhere it is good to let them know so they don’t think you left to go home. If its at somebody elseshouse probably no need to mention, if you are the host then good to let this m know if you had something that will take you away for extended period so they aren’t left wondering. Read the room/situations.

I worked on HP Unix systems, SGI Iris etc: Running CAD on then till around '96 by then the big CAD players had ported to Windows NT and everything got switched to a PC. Because by then PCs had caught up and were much cheaper than running the Unix software and hardware

But he is clearly rolling on the floor in agony clutching his shin, it must be a priority case.

…in other news people drinking raw sewage became sickened.

Its all just garbage that gets in the way. My W11 systems was randomly bogging down during documents, excel and powepoint. it was the AI service hogging resources, (c packaged with Office.) Easy fix, just delete the AI executables in a folder, but a product update will probably bring the back.

You could be struck by a car and not killed

Time to have the Linux talk with her

Just know that English sucks. My coworkers, from many other countries, are baffled that their kids have spelling lessons here. In their language the letter is the sound always, and there aren’t things like: doubling letters, silent e and the multitude of pronunciations for ough (rough, though, thought).

Our brains haven’t evolved with the times. We get stuck on situations of perceived failure, a left over trait to aid in survival so you are prepared for next time. Your brain is taking it as wrong doing and thus shame of letting you ancient village tribe down.

It is easy to say this, and harder to make the mental shift; but you have to find a method to let these things slide. Like a way this laugh them off or IDGAF attitude. We judge ourselves harsher than any other person, once you get to a place where you don’t care about judgement from others, all the worry about a flub diminishes.

And AppArmor

There are some. COCKPIT would probably suit most people. OpenSUSE has a GUI Services tool built into YAST

Cool. I have been using the built in YAST2 GUI services on OpenSUSE. But for other machines COCKPIT webgui uses systems to view and manage services.

SMART was established for HDD originally but adopted for SSD later. Some values may not be totally relevant these days…but it is the way the drive records errors, temperature, etc compared to a manufacturer determined threshold. The idea is drive would report to OS that it may be failing before a failure happens.

Hoepfully you just happened upon a seller looking to get rid of old components and not a scam.

There is a Linux app like Crystal Disk Mark, called KDiskmark that you can also run for some performance testing. Ifyou’ve connected the ssd to the data/msata interface (rather than using wxtwrnal USB2 adapter), and you get super terrible performance compared to online specs then it could be abused.

Best would be to search up BTRFS vs ZFS, or listen the the entire back catalog of 2.5admins; they regularly discuss both. ZFS is probably what you want, I only went BTRFS because it is what I got introduced to via OpenSUSE

I was only explaining why they did it, it is for privacy and services. The fact that free WiFi is not everywhere is stupid. Seems you missed the point.

Meh, snapper rollback

Same, but BTRFS

There was an android app that monitored your breathing and motion when the phone is placed next to you on the bed. It claimed to wake you when you were in the right sleep cycle to wake up clear. I tried it as an alarm clock replacement and it seemed to work…but it was years ago and I forget the app name

Zorin is GNOME based, you should have disks app installed. Open it, find the drive and select it (whether you have sata, usb, nvme) . on the hamburger menu choose the benchmark tool, then try the SMART tool. You will get an idea of the performance and if any smart flags got triggered.
