Linux@lemmy.ml•Mom's Linux mint install keeps going to a black screen
7·6 hours agoThe KVM is the most likely culprit. Remove it from the equation for awhile and see what happens.

Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•Bazzite install failed at writing EFI partitionEnglish
1·12 hours agoWhat kind of machine is this? If it’s something like an HP/Dell/Lenovo, it may have a boot blocker enabled somehow. It wouldn’t make a whole lot of sense since you managed to install Ubuntu, but they may possibly be creating different types of boot volumes.
You’d normally see a message like “HP Sure Start” at the boot screen, for example.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Mom's Linux mint install keeps going to a black screen
9·12 hours agoIf you’re ever present or have remote access to her network, make sure sshd is enabled, and try to SSH into it to see what happens.
Q’s:
- Is this a laptop or desktop?
- If Desktop, what kind of cable is the monitor connected with?
- See if you can get
dmesgoutput (needs to happen during the event, but the machine is still accessible - hence ssh above) - Does the monitor have its own power saving settings?

Videos@lemmy.world•Why Otto Warmbier Didn't Survive North Korea
101·14 hours agoAll of the symptoms described-aside from physical scarring-is very much in line with water boarding as that NK guard mentioned was standard practice. Repeated water boarding causes immense stress on the cardiovascular system, weaking it. It will eventually lead to cardiac events that would not be detectable after time passes without a full autopsy, which they didn’t do. Similar to a human jumping into freezing cold water, your body will just not be able to synchronize breathing and pumping blood properly under this kind of stress. You don’t get used to it.
Repeated over time, this synchronization will eventually be so out of whack, your heart will be damaged, and you’ll have a heart attack or throw a clot. Many whistleblowers talked about this during the last Iraq war. We don’t even know how many people died in Guantanamo because of this exact thing.

43·20 hours agoGEEEEEE, what a coincidence, eh? Almost like these companies may be coordinating some sort of market shift for some reason.
What do you call that when a bunch of companies responsible for large swathes of market share of a particular good or service use the guise of unnatural market pressure to create conditions unnaturally beneficial to themselves and not consumers?
It’s pretty hard to totally “crash” a running Linux kernel, so understanding some details about what symptoms happened, during, and after (screen freezes, sound stops, mouse stops…etc) would be helpful to discern if this was a kernel thing, or just apps crashing. Almost always ends up being a hardware issue or resource constraint though.
As for game logs and crashing, here are some guides and info:

You’ll be more than fine.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Cheapest way to back up a *lot* of data?English
122·1 day agoFirst: there is no cheap way to back this amount of data up. AWS Glacier would be about $200/mo, PLUS bandwidth transfer charges, which would be something like $500. R2 would be about $750/mo, no transfer charges. So assume that most companies with some sort of whacky, competing product would be billed by either of these companies with you as a consumer, and you can figure out how this is the baseline of what you’ll be getting charged from them.
50TB of what? If it’s just readily available stuff you can download again, skip backing that up. Only keep personal effects, and see how much you can reduce this number by.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•I have seen NARCAN work on heroin meth acid and so forth. But if a person came into my ER and was freaking out just on Weed and nothing else. Would NARCAN eliminate his high?
30·2 days agoNarcan doesn’t eliminate being high in any sort of psychological or emotional way. It blocks opioid effects by flooding available receptors and preventing opioids from attaching to them.
It’s like a box of those outlet socket protectors people use to baby proof a home…on a microscopic level.
Wouldn’t do anything at all for any drugs that are not opioids.

politics @lemmy.world•'Very rare': Hegseth landing at LAX in Trump's 'Doomsday plane' sets off firestorm online
4·3 days agoI believe it’s just heavily shielded to prevent EMP from destroying all the electronic surfaces in it. If I remember correctly, it’s outfitted with a ton of comms equipment that duplicate central systems on the ground, so should they be destroyed, this thing just takes off and continuously refuels and flies to prevent getting destroyed, and it keeps military comms running so they can keep launching nukes or whatever.
I got it working under both Wine and Bottles for someone that needed it, but it was a real pain in the ass, and the reports on actually successfully doing so are hit or miss.
Found this solid write up on various options and results though, which sounds like it could be helpful for you while investigating: https://gist.github.com/eylenburg/38e5da371b7fedc0662198efc66be57b

Technology@lemmy.world•Why does my ISP sometimes give one IPv6 and another with a different subnet?English
122·3 days agoIt all is if you’re getting both. You’re sharing IPs with many different devices at the same time. That’s how it works.
Read up on it.
