You can add another mod, and then step down to transfer ownership. If you want to still be a mod after that, the new owner will have to add you, or the admin of the instance the community is hosted on

kind of how AOSP is for Android)

You don’t “confirm” it. It’s an attempt to describe a system/outcome. It’s a model of a system, not the system itself and no model is perfect, because all models are our attempt to understand and describe things, and there is no such thing as perfect understanding.

However, it’s a highly accurate model, that explains things very well. So, either we will find that one day, we make a brand new, better model (this seems unlikely given the accuracy of the current model, but possible). Or, more likely, we continue to come to a better understanding of the system, and improve the model we use to describe it.

Are you mounting a FAT32 disk by any chance?

I honestly don’t remember. It was 5 or so years ago. From memory, they were small brown gel caps, and I initially took 2 of an evening, but moved down to 1, before stopping. Can’t remember the dose in each cap

All I remember is that it made me wake up feeling like I was slightly hungover.

TIL, hiking to Mordor can be dangerous :P

New Zealand. The whole country feels like a national park especially the south island. However, you would need to rent a car to get to and between a lot of places.

I’d just re-install Windows over the top of the fucked up install normally. It was a bit easier to recover from, and a bit harder to fuck up

It was similar for me, but not quite the same. The thing I hated was starting from scratch. I’m very much not a distro hopper. Back in the day, I enjoyed the challenge of trying to troubleshoot issues and get the system working again, and that kept me interested, but eventually, I’d hit a problem I couldn’t resolve, and I’d have to start again from scratch, and at that point, I’d just go back to Windows.

Now, I still get to do the same thing. If I break it, I get to learn how I broke it and try and fix it, and I find that process compelling. But because I’m using btrfs restore points now, I don’t get to the point where I have to start again from scratch. So I can work at solving it to the limit of my abilities, with confidence that if I can’t work it out, it’s not a huge issue.

That also sounds like a good way to stop learning!

I think this thread of replies largely denying it happens, or arguing as for why there’s a good reason that it happens should give you an idea why the issue happens in the first place.

The “starting over” part is what made it take so long for linux to “stick” with me.

Once it became “restore from an earlier image”, it was a game changer!

I’m lucky enough to not have to ride with cars. That being said, I don’t ride at that velocity either

The early universe before cosmic inflation, was nothing but high energy sub atomic particles. Cosmic inflation kicked in, and dispersed that matter and energy. Cosmic background radiation is the remnants of that process. It comes from all directions in the universe, because it predates inflation.

Which is to say, your question can’t be answered, because cosmic background radiation exists only because of inflation. It was created before inflation kicked in, as part of a singularity, with no spatial dimensions. As a result, today, it’s everywhere, all the time, from all directions. It wasn’t far away when it was created, because far away didn’t have any meaning in a singularity without spatial dimensions.

There’s a couple of different options in there, both in the Metadata section of the preferences One, is the option to use sidecar files, and you can explicitly tell it use sidecar files for everything and don’t write to the original file. Beside the sidecar tab, there is another tab that lets you control how it handles image rotation, and whether it adjusts the pixels, or just sets a metadata flag

It’s a configuration option.

TikTok basically invented shorts. Maybe Snapchat.

That would be Vine

If it actually worked, it would be really useful for a lot of people (it’s me. I’m a lot of people)
