Still have a big bag of 40pin IDE cables in my closet. Probably time to say goodbye one of these days.

Great, for office-style work and Netflix there’s really no reason to feel tied to Windows any more these days.
You already have two answers but let me add one more: completely smooth here. I’d been dual booting for many years and rarely have any issue (besides Windows update occasionally borking the bootloader and having to reinstall Grub)
But these days gaming on Linux is so smooth I really don’t need Windows any more. I still have it on my machine, dual booting, but I haven’t actually booted into Windows in at least 6 months.
shim_lock protocol not found appears to be a result of secure boot failing. One simple solution would be to go to the BIOS and disable SecureBoot. You can also try to configure it to recognize your efi but I’d turn it off first and see if that helps.
If bike and pedestrian traffic is infrequent you’ll rarely have to give priority, problem solved right?
Conversely I get the feeling a lot of people are secretly happy about this: “Some of these people are insufferable so I can eat what I want, drive what I want, because at least I’m not an idiot like them.”
I don’t know why these people are shown next to each other. One is a scientist and the other… well the most charitable thing I can call him is a businessman.
That’s fair, in all honesty it’s a great tool. But in the end it’s not worth it.
FMT99@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.ml•Trump tells US chip design software makers to halt China sales10·9 days agoThey’re about 25 years late with this nonsense. Yeah borking trade will slow China down a little but not very much. And at insane expense to everyone involved.

Far be it from me to criticize people pirating this software but after some period of adjustment I’m very happy with the open source alternatives to most of these.
So what does that say? Even with a demon like Trump as opposition the establishment democrats couldn’t motivate their own base to vote. Obviously we want to vote against republicans. But the establishment was and is doing a horrible job of making that happen.

edit: Sorry I thought it was obvious this was slightly tongue-in-cheek.

He’s not holding onto any secrets that he might spill. Killing him is only to their advantage if it sends a message “don’t mess with us or you’ll die”. That works if he’s convicted and executed, that doesn’t work if it’s seen as “a company will just assassinate you”. They’d have to keep the assassination a secret, which would defeat the purpose.
The establishment is why we have Trump.

Becoming famous is a skill in itself, separate from the ability you’re famous for.
Keep on toeing that party line. It’s doing wonders for the DNC.
People who still to this day make that argument are either malicious or willfully pig ignorant. Every trial with carless zones has shown the 180 degree opposite of that statement.
