Can I just say, that I fucking hate having to censor myself TO MY OWN FUCKING THERAPIST?

I understand the need to report certain things... But therapy feels like a chore.

Look man I really don't have anything againsnt what you're saying, we're both arguing for assumptions here, there's no point

But I guess I'll ask this, to get to more practical things: what do you think he should do?

I think the best thing he could do is sell to someone that needs the property to live in it. But I won't hold it against him if he chooses to keep and rent out the property unless it's solely for profits. Keeping a property for a while to make sure you won't need it before selling it, is fine in my head.

I didn't read the linked post admittedly, just the op on lemmy, but yea I agree, jews shouldn't all be bundled in this

Maybeb I'm just blind but I don't see a mention of all jews on the lemmy op text post

Huh? I don't follow

I said him owning it is better than a laege company owning it

I mean isn't that better??? You can reason with a guy, given that he's reasonable, but you have no chance with a company. And his price is probably lower than that of a company looking to maximise profits with constant market data available to them

[-] 87Six@lemmy.zip -1 points 7 hours ago

What? I said

selling to someone who needs it

As in someone that needs it to live in it

Israel deverves that wholly, because it does control a whole lot via proxies, blackmail and antisemitism threats.

If Romania din terrible things, you call out Romania, you don't loiter around worrying about what will happen to diaspora citizens of Romania before calling out atrocities commited by Romania.

If Romania meddled in the US admin, building up blackmail and using it as leverage, you call out Romania.

The world already knows zionism is the issue, not jews, and if they don't they will be told until they understand.

But you can't just bend over and give Israel your other hole just because you may get called a racist undeservedly.

I can't be bothered to give a damn about a country that I see online constantly celebrating and threatening deaths of children, on every platform that doesn't censor it.

Does this qualify?

Hi again

I'm struggling with setting up mangohud now (or really any FPS limiter and performance overlay). Specifically, I can't limit my FPS or display my FPS (and other metrics) to even know what it is.

Any pointers? I've tried:

  • Followed the mangohud install steps on github. I didn't install one of those demos because I needed to compile from source but I couldn't find any explicit tutorial or makefile..
  • Tried switching between several Proton versions (GE just doesn't work for me I found)
  • Tried a billion different ways to run it like with "mangohud" prefix and with variables. Nothing. I think gamescope also doesn't work, I'm not sure.
  • Watched several Youtube videos about Mangohud and Goverlay, they weren't really useful.
  • Tried Medal Of Honor Airborne on Lutris (local install)
  • Tried Webbed on Steam (via steam install)
  • Tried heaven benchmark (installed via their .run file)
  • The FPS limit switch hotkey (shift F1) works on the goverlay demo cube thing
  • The HUD toggle hotkey (shift F12) works on the goverlay demo

More screenshots with various things I tried:

I've been trying this for probably close to 12 hours...Idk what to try anymore :-/

I'm on Linux Mint 22.2, Cinnamon 6.4.8. The laptop is a Thinkpad T470p.

Not sure if this is the right community for this, lmk.

Hi all

EDIT / TL;DR / Solution: I think the calibration is working. I checked my measurement adaptation using the Power Statistics in Linux Mint and this is the new one now:

Seems like it's adapting, it's just slow. If this doesn't work, I'll update again. Cheers!

I just changed the external battery of this T470p I bought. The old one was at about 70% battery life and was smaller at 4.4Ah. New one is around 6.34Ah.

The battery lasts almost double the time now so it's great, but, the % reading in Gnome Power Manager (bottom right tray) is way off. The laptop dies at around 40%. Ofc the estimated time left is also way off.

I did buy the battery for around 30% cheaper than I find it here from Aliexpress: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32637096491.html (perhaps it's just weird, but it does last longer)

I tried

  • Drained the battery by playing youtube then recharged over night.
  • Installed and recalibrared with TLP (let it discharge with TLP running, plug in while off, leave it plugged over night) (this uninstalled power-profiles-daemon - I later uninstalled TLP and reinstalled that package).
  • Checked BIOS for a battery recalibration utility. I found none unfortunately. I looked everywhere including Config (there was no Power menu there). I also looked in the hardware diagnostic software that I can access instead of booting into BIOS. I believe the key was F10.
  • Checked the settings app, nothing.
  • Checked online, everyone says use TLP or discharge manually repeatedly without charging partially in between.

This is what my discharge profile looks like

I checked, I do not have an internal battery installed.

I also repasted the CPU and GPU when I opened it.

Thanks again for helping me pick a distro in my other post! Everything is up and running nicely with Linux mint. I even set up Lutris, Steam, and a bunch of utility apps. I still need to set an FPS limit somehow because this thing PULLS in old games.

PS I promise that trackpad is clean lol, looks so dirty in the piciture.

Hi everyone.

Can anyone guide me into choosing a Linux distro for this laptop (or laptops in general)?

I want to get it for my dad as a general browsing machine that can maybe also play some very old games. (think 2010 era)

How do I pick a distro? I tried checking the drivers page but it seems, at least from this page, that there are almost no drivers available on linux for this machine.

The same seems to be the case for many other laptops I looked at...I also have a ThinkBook 16 G7 IML as a work machine that I could not find proper drivers for (keyboard, camera, graphics card - I get artifacting very often)

Help? How do I research this?

EDIT: Thanks for the overwhelming support! What I took away is:

  • Most drivers are packaged in the kernel in Linux so no dedicated drivers are needed most of the time
  • Proprietary drivers are an issue (camera on the 16 G7 IML, Nvidia drivers)
  • The 940MX may not have Linux support, I'll check
  • It's a good laptop overall
  • Consider Mint, Tuxedo OS, Zorin (for mac users), Ubuntu
  • Consider A485 (AMD version of T480 with Vega 8), T470 (non-P - no nvidia driver issues), T480 (faster low power CPU than T470 high power CPU)
  • Resources: DistroWatch.com DistroChooser Linux Hardware

Yes I've considered desktops and would build one in a heartbeat if it would be useful for my dad, but he 100% needs the portability. Thanks for the heads up.

This thread proves 100% that the linux community really is friendly as hell. I don't know where people get the impression that noobs are treated badly.

I just checked compatibility between Mint and the 940MX and it seems good. Here are some links. The ones with "computer" in the link are specifically T470 or T470P models. The site is very slow for some reason but it will load eventually. If you get a gateway timeout it's likely to succeed if you retry.

This is disguisting. Remember guys, no brand is worth fanboying over.
