And you have anything other vibes? No. No you do not.

Or are you gonna pull the old “do your own research line” cause you think it makes you sound smart?

Okay I’m just gonna say it. So what?

You are correct I believe. My understanding was that graphene blocked an api or something like that to address the vulnerability…?

Are you implying that they put the vulnerability there? What is even your point? As far as I know they were the first ones to have a fix for that issue but apparently that means that they’re inherently insecure. Like seriously, do you even have any idea what you’re talking about???

Trust. For me that fits your description, the thing I don’t “see” but some out there do. I try to keep an open mind, but the way this stuff is being sold hard bothers me.

What format is your HDD? If you recently switched from windows, it’s possible the HDD is using the NTFS filesystem, which is not well supported so many distros will not auto mount NTFS partitions to avoid file corruption. Good news, though, better NTFS support is coming with kernel version 7. Anyway, for starters you want to check if /dev/hda exists; if it doesn’t, that’s a whole other problem…

Edit: I hesitate to recommend this distro to someone new to Linux, but it occurred to me CachyOS has a decent chance of solving every one of the issues you mentioned. It’s gaming focused, has the latest kernel already, good hardware support, and includes an environment for running windows apps. Unfortunately, troubleshooting or installing new apps will likely involve a much steeper learning curve. But again, it might have ready to go support for everything you need, so…

I’m more impressed/disturbed at the way he takes “punchable face” to a whole new level…

Disappointing, but unfortunately not unexpected either. Minnesota already is one of the states that age-gates porn sites.

Sorta like how worshipping anything other than Supply-side Jesus is anti-American…

Oh, I hear ya. And although obviously inspired by RPGs, I do conceptualize my wacky theory more in the context of string theory and related ideas.

Unfortunately of course such hypotheses are extraordinarily difficult to actually test. However intuitively I do kind of like where you’re coming from. I’ve always been fascinated by how everything that we conceptually are aware of has a sorta polar opposite that we kind of define it by.

I guess on a similar note, my own wacky theory is that our dimension can be affected at any given time by up to 13 other dimensions, but which 13 can change amongst a potentially infinite number. I imagine certain dimensions would more likely be co-terminus (I term I believe I’m borrowing from a Dungeons and Dragons type source) with ours than others but who knows.

Still, though - c/showerthoughts?

Like, in all seriousness, I don’t think lack of ability to flood a Lemmy community, least of all the one in question, is going to have any effect on the matter. Like, at all.

Heh. My answer was gonna be “missing”.
