uk has cameras on every street corner and there’s still crime.

it’s about money laundering from corrupt pieces of shit.

why the fuck would the intercept report on this and alert the government to it so they can fix it?

kinda jealous of turkey rn

and when they inevitably crash?

bing! thy turkey’s done

but they could make it be google play or samsung store only as the default as a compromise

why can google not just code something like this into android:

allow apps from:
( ) All sources (how it is now; allow each app to install apps from external sources)
( ) Just Google Play
( ) Apps which have been verified by Google Developer Program

i don’t even know what the it dept thought when i was in university and napster/kazaa were just becoming a thing and people went from 56k at home to t1.

oh thanks that does make sense since it happened on my laptop but not on my desktop; i only have 12gb of ram on the laptop and the swap was only 2gb so i upped it to 8gb but we’ll see if that does anything if it happens again!

well i hope they like ineffable husbands

so far it’s been so good! i think the only issue i’ve had with linux is that it will randomly freeze everything (usually if I try to load a tab in librewolf/chrome that’s a chonky boi or if i’m in zoom) on my laptop and i have to hard reset and i can’t figure out how to search for it because i really don’t know what causes it :(

can’t you switch from xfce to cinnamon and vice versa too?

ooh i have timeshift automatically set up anyway :)

i was going to amend my other comment.

according to this in the release notes:

HWE kernel issues

To provide support for newer AMD processors, Linux Mint 22.2 ships HWE Kernel 6.14.

This kernel however has issues with:

Virtualbox
Old Intel GPUs which use the i915 driver
Old NVIDIA cards which use the 470 driver (this driver is no longer supported by NVIDIA and thus doesn’t support newer kernels)

If you are affected by one of these issues, we recommend you install Linux Mint 22.1 instead, which ships with LTS kernel 6.8.

You can then perform an upgrade towards 22.2 without switching towards the HWE kernel.

i ran lspci -k | grep -EA3 'VGA|3D|Display' and i confirmed i was running i915 but i’m also currently on 22.1 with kernel 6.8; so does that mean i can upgrade normally and not worry about the kernel?

oh god i’m nervous i just switched from windows to linux in march and this will be my first big update :o
