I use simple technology when I ride. My timer is...
I don't usually care much how long I rode, but the few long rides I've timed myself on were around 1:40 or so, with only like 2 breaks in between, around 36 miles total, one way.
It's been a little hit/miss for me at times as well, I totally feel your frustration when dealing with scratched discs. Still, at least with my drives, spamming the eject button seems to eventually work.
Did you catch the other commenter that said..
eject /dev/sr0
Back in 2001, I wrote my own 3D graphics engine, down to the individual pixel rendering, shading, camera tracking, Z buffer, hell even error diffusion dithering for 256 color palettes.
And I still don't know half the terms you just used.
I do know points, polygons, vectors, normals, roll, pitch, yaw, Lambert's Law shading, error diffusion feedback..
And my Calculus 2 teacher admired my works and told me I had the understanding of a Calculus 4 student.
Most drives have an emergency eject function built in, totally independent of the operating system. Some work differently than others, but try something along these lines..
Usually works for me.
Edit: Most drives also have an emergency eject hole near the eject button, just push a straightened paperclip in when the drive is powered off and it should eject.
Well that was all about pathetic in hindsight huh? 😂🤣
Also, King Charles' actual birthday is November 14, look it up..
Where I'm at, the tap water not only tastes bad, it'll also give you the flying shits for days, and beer is cheaper than bottled water..
I'll never have Elmo's brain chip implanted for one..
Split right down the urethra, obviously.
The average human has one breast, one testicle, one ovary, and half of a penis. So clearly you have half of a penis.
What would Jesus do?
Jesus never owned a gun, they didn't exist back then.
In my experience, Lemmy isn't particularly toxic, though sometimes you might run across people with a bad attitude or just might have simply had a bad day. Block those sort of people if you need to, or report them, depending on context.
Also, life pro tip, people aren't too keen on reading walls of text, especially if it's mostly complaining..
Sorry for potato quality, but it's soft and fuzzy on the outside, and the inside is somewhat mushy and is a light yellow/green color, and it's about 2 inches long.
Found under some trees at our city park in South Mississippi.
Edit: I'm now seeing a number of the fuzzy peels laying around one of the picnic tables, so is it some sort of food?
Edit 2: It doesn't seem to have any notable smell that I can tell.
Edit 3: Solved - Magnolia Flower Bud
We're actually sitting under a Magnolia tree right now and I just looked up and saw one still on the tree, so this is now 100% confirmed.
The best I've got is a brown dog. He's not much bigger than a large cat though, does he count?
His name is Brownie..
