This is fantastic, congratulations!

Why hello there! 👋

This looks like a fantastic update! Huge thanks to everyone involved!

Ah, well I hope your new system is more to your liking then!

OpenRGB might be able to help you change the colors if that’s something you’re interested in fixing nowadays.

There is also a flag to list which I always forget and lookup each time

That would be -t, which I tend to remember as “test”, as in testing to see what is inside the archive!

tealdeer is a great program to have installed for easily getting a breakdown of the flags of pretty much any CLI app that at least I can ever think of!

Ah I see, that’s actually pretty cool - thanks!

tsoding’s channel is one I look forward to watching every single day, never a dull moment in his streams/videos.

If you’re someone who likes to watch things live, his Twitch channel is available here.

I’m not a C/C++ dev, but isn’t apport Ubuntu’s crash reporter? Why would dumps be going into there?

Though on a rhetorical thought, I am aware of systemd’s coredumptctl so perhaps its collecting dumps the same way systemd does.

Jeez, that’s terrible - I am sorry! I don’t have an answer as to why people are like that unfortunately, I suspect most people here won’t either - but that patient sounds insufferable.

Are they not Bluetooth? I swear I remember connecting my Wiimote to my PC via Bluetooth eons ago by just holding down the 1 and 2 buttons to enter pairing mode.

Exactly, its like if I claimed online that I had a million bucks - even if I weren’t lying, it doesn’t matter unless the right people believe my claim. It’s the same premise here really, the truth only counts when you actually have power sadly.

That makes perfect sense, thanks! Seems like I was certainly onto something then. Part of me wishes that I had gone into this field as its very intriguing - perhaps in another life!

It’s a bit difficult to say, but perhaps we did in say, maybe through the repetition of flashing images from our memory, or sounds, etc.

Even without language, that internal “making sense” of things / interpreting the world around us still exists - I’d imagine if you were to ask someone who was deaf (starting at a very early age) they’d probably say there is a monologue of some sorts, even if not by “sound”, whether that be the flashing images of various hand signs, or written words, etc.

I’m by no means a medical expert, so just a stab in the dark here - our brains constantly process all sorts of information. Whether that’s memories, input from your various senses, or a million other things. During that process, your brain is also trying to make sense of it all (“Why?”, “What does it mean”, “How?”, etc).

Our ability to communicate and express language is intertwined in this process, which of course is what gives you the perception of dialog. So in essence, I think its just our brains trying to make sense of… its process of making sense, if that makes sense?

On a side note, I’m practically dosing myself with semantic satiation with how many times I’ve used “sense” here (that last one being more tongue-in-cheek)…

Have you checked on Element to see if the rooms appear there? Generally, when you leave a room on Matrix the homeserver you’re on still holds a copy of that room that is cached until you “Forget” the room (and on the backend, its completely removed when all users on the homeserver have left the room AFAIK).

Matrix does not delete your messages from the room whenever you leave a room though. What I don’t know is what happens when your account is deleted, however.

Sure, I’ll bite.

Do not attempt to tell me “what I’m thinking”

I’m not going to pretend that my way of thinking is “unique” because I can’t speak for how others think, but I expect that same courtesy to apply to me as well. For example, whenever someone says “You seem to think…” it upsets me quite a bit. What I say out loud (or “write” I suppose) doesn’t include the context of how I got to that point.

I very much am happy for people to tell me when I’m wrong on something, because if I’m wrong I would like to know (more-so if they can actually prove it… just saying “You’re wrong” and not saying how leads to nothing, but that is a whole other rant). However, one thing that that no one can assert to know more than I do is how I think, what I’m thinking, or the methods that I used to arrive to something I’ve said/done. You can possibly predict it depending on how long you’ve known me for, but to try to claim you know exactly what, is very egregious in my eyes.

I have a pretty high tolerance before my temper is set off (or as I like to say “A very long fuse, but an even higher yield when that fuse runs out”), but there is a small list of exceptions to that - one being hypocrisy, and the other being this.

I mean, a lot of people have a tendency to do “stupid” things, and maybe even say stupid things - but I wouldn’t classify 90% of the population as stupid. First problem is that “stupid” isn’t a very quantifiable quality - and “smarter” really depends on the perspective of the way you’re looking at it. I’ll use what someone else mentioned here as an example: I would like to say that I’m at least a decent software developer (or so I hope), but I know absolutely nothing about cars (I don’t even have one). While I’m pretty well rounded on the software side of computers, I’m terrible at the hardware side. I am also terrible at math aside from the very basics (and even then… eh) - hence, I’d never have a good shot at even getting into game development if that were something I wanted to pursue.

So not only can I not comment on whether other people are “stupid”, I can’t even account for myself, because there’s no metric for it. Are we going off of IQ (I have zero clue what my IQ is, nor do I really have an interest in finding out what it might be)? Are we going off of being able to answer Jeopardy questions?

Are there any logs from the container(s) when it locks up?

Can confirm, I made an instance around the time that the blackout started - unfortunately the hardware it was running on was starting to experience some issues. It’s still up and running, but for now I’ve made a fresh new instance on way better hardware - and this time without a subdomain 😅
