Re: Looks Like I'll Have To Sell The House
Yep, I hope to make it as seamless as possible. Fortunately since I'm fully remote I never have to physically show up in any offices for the contract company. They're headquartered in Texas though they also have offices in San Diego and Florida. This will be my first time doing a full blown move, wh...

Re: Looks Like I'll Have To Sell The House
I'm psyching myself up to the daunting task of relocating lol! I think I can do most of it remotely if I can find a good realtor there, and it will likely be new construction which will make it simpler. If the home buying company gives me time after closing to get things wrapped up with the new hous...

Re: Looks Like I'll Have To Sell The House
I've been reading that there's a lot of this going on now, some people forced out even with a fully paid off loan because they're on a fixed income and can't afford the property tax hikes on top of the higher cost of living. Yeah I'd sure like to get something going to make money independent of an e...

Looks Like I'll Have To Sell The House
Well I may have to sell the house. I'm not making as much as I was when I first bought it all those years ago but I've been holding my own for the last 17 years. But now with the cost of living costing so much more, property taxes going way up, insurance going up, and very high income taxes things a...

Re: Random Stuff, Seen on the net that made me LoL
There's a company called Edison Motors that builds diesel electric trucks (and makes conversion kits for existing trucks) with the same type of drive train as a diesel electric locomotive. They have no drive shafts, the engine powers a generator which powers electric motors on the axles.

Re: Are the screensavers gone from Plasma now?
I did a quick search, someone on Reddit said Plasma 4.14 was the last release to include screensavers.

Thunderbird 125.0
Thunderbird has been based on Firefox ESR, but it just jumped from 115.0 to 125.0. I thought Firefox ESR must have jumped as well, but it's still showing as 115.0. So I don't know if Thunderbird was rebased on the regular release of Firefox, or if Firefox ESR will soon make the jump as well. I could...

I noticed that about Manjaro when I had previously configured her older machine to dual boot Manjaro and Windows 10 a few years ago. Most distros these days by default disable probing for other installed OS's so os-prober doesn't run. If not manually configuring it it can be enabled by adding or unc...

Speaking of nephews, one of my nephews who I think is in his 30's now, has been playing a lot of Fallout: New Vegas lately on Steam.

Re: Arch Linux 2024
Plasma 6 is still not nearly as stable as Plasma 5 anyway, it often crashes when I merely click on a launcher. If he's not going to do any gaming on Linux then Debian may be a better option than Ubuntu. Debian is pretty good these days and with none of of the Ubuntu nonsense, though it will get crus...

I've been hearing about Bazzite recently and watched a few videos. It's a recreation of the Steam Deck OS (SteamOS). It can either be done as a console install or desktop. It's based on an immutable version of Fedora, but seems to work very well from what I've seen and read. I thought I might try it...

I'm surprised to hear Manjaro is still on Plasma 5. Slackware-Current is still on Plasma 5, but that's not surprising considering how long he stayed with Plasma 4

You can avoid paying those insane prices for a Windows key. There are sites that sell legit keys for $20 - $40, I got a Win10 one over a year ago for a small machine where I've occasionally needed a Windows install, and a Win10 key last summer for a test machine (the one with the Intel Arc card) wit...

Re: heh... my qemu still runs
I got it to work via Proxmox (also uses qemu) to install a Windows 11 VM. There it's just a matter of adding a virtual TPM module in the hardware section of the web GUI. Similar in Virt-Manager.
