    ESIM using silent.link = a phone line that can only be used to receive messages and calls no outbound calls allowed. However you need a phone with esim support.

    Physical sim on another device: great but you need a seperate hardware and have something extra to carry and charge.

    Physical sim on a dual sim phone. Easier to carry however it runs the battery faster and sometimes you can forget which sim you are on if you are quickly calling or texting.

    Mains sim plus VoIP line example is mysudo- use one phone, seperate your communication between your actual number and an app with VoIP. Seperate phones # via software since VoIP is all on app side. Requires you have an internet connection to work properly. Not all services are happy using VoIP and stop you from registering or changing numbers to VoIP.

    Lots to think about, best of luck.

    I am excited about it, however I also was sad the original one wasn't finished. I'm also curious how they handle deploying it for obvious reasons. The one I loved watching over and over was watermelon island, threw me for a loop. Also I love the design of characters from that era.

    It does also have third party repos such as sbopkg. This does a bunch of the movement for you when installing packages though you still need to manually install dependencies, BUT If you also add sboui which is a front end package resolution for dependencies then the process is much faster. I like the stability of Slackware, and also because its helps me get better for when I try the BSD since its very much like them as well.

    I would have suggested silent.link , while you can get a number not tied to your identity via esim, the main focus of numbers is a receiver for text and calls(also because it avoid people creating spam phone calls/txt). Which was originally for 2fa that only had cell # as an option. Also a number requires the user to be vigilant in paying their annual for it or they can lose the number. Also I think they can only cater for users in US, Canada and maybe UK.

    What i love about this show is what happens after the story ends. Lots of story have this ending of epic quest, but i always wonder, does your happily ever after last forever? Thats when Frieren takes the direction to answer those questions. I love the approach, everyone loves conflict and major problems. Very few shows actaully go on to talk about what happens after "peace" in a more world view.

    I watched it and kept rewinding during episodes to see if i missed anything. Everything about it was great. Sound design, voice, and graphics. Also liked that even though pomni shows concern about her situation, she has some grit as she gave sass to jak when he tossed her over. Also, you can't mention the bit about gangle's secret that jak brought up about ragatha. I want to see it now. Splitting between scenes, the pace of the gang on the adventure vs pomni with gummigoo was nicely performed storywise.

    I dont blame em for going with that decision. Maintainer/devs are also wearing customer service/ PR and bookeeping hat on top of the things they build. Things cost money, especially time, call it greedy or not but people have to pay housing and food. Its tough and similar to a lot of industries, nobody cares until something goes wrong. All the best to this person 👍

    This is one show i finished recently. Its increadibly well done. Story telling is great, character development is awesome. I have also watched FMAB, these 2 are completely different in that FMAB is a greater volume of development among many charcter, which isnt a fair comparison by the amount of seasons availalble compared to Frieren. Hopefully Frieren expands so that i can see how it ends, because that is my favorite part of FMAB, its got a great ending.

    Several things with this.

    1. introducing programing and linux are two seperate things, though they do bridge when running linux, it would be asking em to learn one or the other. ( offer something already easy linux distro, to learn linux passively while focusing on programing.

    Resources:

    Learn linux TV - playlist available for linux and programing

    https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCxQKHvKbmSzGMvUrVtJYnUA

    Unfa - learn linux and music production

    https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCAYKj_peyESIMDp5LtHlH2A

    Good audio recording program thats free Ardour ( if he becomes good and makes a living on it, pls donate to the devs)

    Learn programing for free Freecodecamp.org

    If you are in the US. Ask the college/university for taking walk ins for classes. They allow you to attend classes for free to check out if you want to be a student. Depending on the school there will be no limit. ( honestly tech fields are mostly certifications and experience; a degree with student loans not necessary)

    Local library, ive found books for programing languages to check out, use the cities resources.

    Conclusion

    All these options mean nothing unless the person does it and applys. You need to accept that no matter how much you suggest/guide/offer , that at the end of the day the choice is theirs. Especially at an age that wants to figure things out on their own.

    Best of luck.

    This is still true, after 6 months after my post hybrids still a viable option. I have seen a shift on the way in person meetings change, but this is for those workin on certain areas. An example is large scale marketing, have moved to hybrids on day to day operations especially if the company does international level of work. They have gone to in person meetings as special events for team building. Before the pademic, in person meeting was the norm and happening more frequently not just for team building but for actual campain for projects.

    One things for sure is that it involved minors, which means any kind of lawsuit would instantly involve the parents, who i cant see taking it well that their familys corpses were tampered with, regardless of what the individual girls/boy say. However as much as we can emulate our culture/laws, it is a show, yeah there are "doesnt make sense moments" which can be boiled down to, example, the policeman is vain and an idiot that he just doesnt process it. However thats why the inspector is brought into the mix to fill those missing pieces on their background. The lids gonna blow up, the question is when.

    Full metal alchemist was spedrun on brotherhood but really only the beginning. So i dont see it approached in the same manner, also because the world of both (fma and and wolf)are much too different. Maybe they will do it like fruits basket. Hopefully bring in the og cast(i havent read up on it to see this being true or not) and continue it like that. However the approach, its got enough attention to get the previous fans talking about it and new people interested in it. So whatever is being done, its at least working to some degree. Plus to the new crowds, its different in a sense to what has been told recently.

    Morally speaking, your are right, initially he should not have done that. However the interactions of the zombie girls thoughout the series shows that it gave them an opportunity to deal with some of their initial unsolved problems. Im not saying this justifies them being brought back. Im saying its bad, they have done a lot of good both personally/professionally, and the future is unknown. I can see it going south for sure(as one possibility), here is the thing with making dicey choices, eventually you will have to face what comes with it.

    Its still going strong.

    Though there are a lot more tools.

    Still sysinit system and as reliable as ever on its stability.

    New things are stuff such as -sbopkg(can deploy slackbuilds a lot faster as it will sync, custom the slackbuilds scripts if you want, build and install applications[though you still have to install depenencies in there proper order])

    • Sboui gui style package management tool that will work with sbopkg and take care of the dependecy resolution for the applications you want to install(includes previous mentioned details of sbopkg)

    I can say even on me when i was new to using it, slackware is forgiving if you make mistakes.

    Alien bob still making modern packages to use as an alternative package resource if you want stuff like vlc, libreoffice and such that do not come with the default package resource.

    As someone who works with tech, here is my 2 cents on basic knowledge.

    If your computer is "not working" restarting the computer can generally fix 80 percent of the issues. We are not trying to make you mad, this is literraly first thing I am doing if you present me a problem.

    Stop downloading things from unknown sources.

    Use generic effects/fonts on your powerpoint. Just because you bought something cool doesnt mean it will magically transfer when you pass your presnetation to another computer for your presentation. (Microsoft does not migrate your paid effects)

    For gamers Stop playing pvp on your pc/console on wifi, are you a mad?

    Everyone in general We are at an age of computers. Learn how to type, it will save you tremendous amount of time, literally.

    For about 4 hours i beleive. Though it used to be longer as i have had it for over a year and the battery not like it used to be.

    Kde is the default desktop eviornment.

    It helps that its a non systemd init system so it doesnt pull as much resources on the backend since systemwide is controlled via scripts.

    If i were to run a lighter one such as xfce, qtile or dwm it would run longer(varies on configuration though)

    As someone who runs VMs, i suggest you dont. Ivd been doing it for about 2 years and i still have moments where lets say i want to expand my storage and a bork it, or accidently removed a virt selection on virt manager by mistake.

    An easy solution. Run conty.

    It creates a virtualized arch linux with all the needs for gaming without having you worry about the heavy stuff. All the list of programs already on the list including other launchers for other games.

    Ive watched it before. From what i remember it was a decent watch, and i agree with others it has its good moments overall towards the first part, however not as impactful storywise towards the end. Mind you its been a while ago since i watched both, the one thing that stuck to me was the music used, i defintley love the openings as it was ClariS music running on it. That i didnt forget, if you see the video you see why, cause you start to ask questions about the story.

    Funny Unexpected pop ups

    So not too long ago i had a gig; i went in with the expectation of just setting up several breakouts with simple projector and audio support. What actually happened is the op was running late and I had to take over a room with 4 mics, 2 speakers and 2 projectors that was not rung out & 15 min left before show time. I spent my entire shift riding multiple faders to avoid feedback with a board that had the previous show setup from a different group. Had to come back to op again on the same room, so the day before i left, i zeroed the board, rung the room and now its all nicely grouped to a single fader for control. Not complaining, but the situation gave me a good laugh.

Come in metric and imperial - uses( weird drape hardware and TV mounts) - c wrench - there is a debate for 6 or 8 inch due to leverage but I go 6 cause its already a lot of weight when carrying - interchangeable bit screwdriver( harbor freight sells one with thick and narrow flat head/phillips bits[double sided] ) - leatherman multitool- personal preference on the model is based on the tech. - USB to multi cable out - comes in handy for data transfer/ charging. - fastfold clip tool- I hate fastfolds, this makes me hate them less. - small cleanex wipes/hand sanitizer. For quick breaks when you want to snack without dirty hands. - box cutter/knife - pen and small notepad( I prefer paper over writing it on my phone.) - magnetic light - Magnetic extension stick - tool belt pouch with tape chain - permanent marker - electricity probe - test if there is power running in a cable/outlet witbout connecting it to a device. Im pretty sure there is more but these are usually my main ones.

    RIP OldTechBloke OTB

    This is one of the channels i used to get into slackware. His presentation was fantastic and very well done. It's sad to lose a person of this wealth of knowledge and I hope his family well during this difficult time. I hope they know how much help he was to the slackware/linux community.

    perspective

    Ive worked with digital boarda and analoge boards. It seems more work to do anlouge boards and i just realized why. If one long run is bad, id have to rerun that line. If i got a digital board with a stage box, quick switch. Bad etherent? (Change the line, bad box?( change the box). Maybe i should suggest portable stage boxes universal for any board in case i do analogue run again.

    slackware on my pinebook pro.

    I had wanted to do this for a while, was using the default manjaro and its painfully obvious the slowdown caused by kde and sysyemd services. Tried it at first after getting my nvme adapter and failed. Later found out i needed a supported nvme a2000 by kingston 250Gb. Finally arrived this week and redid the download. After 2 reboots it worked. Following the docs its got xcfe and the font it recommended. I got no sound at the time but will hopefully fix that once i do a few searches. But one thing that has improved is the speed thanks to the nvme and the ram usage. Update 08/16/2023: wiki on pb pro for slackware says sounds ongoing on getting it working. I'll be trying somethings out (/lib/modprobe.d has some commenented sound options(need to read on these options) but in the meantime my bluetooth speaker is covering the sound portion of the use. Update end of August- i decided to update the system and made the mistake of rebooting before adding the updated kernel to the bootloader. Needless to say im in a section where I am gonna be looking to see if i can use uboot shell to temporarily boot the system and then i can run a script to finalize the new kernel. I believe it was 6.0.44. I could just reinstall but figure id take the learning route of knowing more about u boot. Wish me luck. Update Dec 13, 2023 Sorry for not getting back to you sooner Previously i was on 6.0.44, so i found out due to my impatients(i hit a key to "hurry along the boot process") turns out hitting a key disrupts the booting process. It worked fully once I waited for a bit longer. Today i decided to test it again and updated slackware with slackpkg. Including the kernel(now on 6.1.67-armv8). Same as before the process worked. ) Still an issue is getting sound from the internel speakers. Ill be trying the mic when i get a chance, till then I'll be using my bluetooth speakers to make up for it. Update May 27, 2024 Kernel: 6.6.31-armv8 Slackware 15 aarch64 - current I have been taking some free time to search online for the audio to turn on. There is a way to do it. Apparently the problem with audio is even if you turn it on, its not persistant across power cylcling ( turning on and off the laptop). Also pinebook pro on slackware is not fond of reboots(restarts), especially with kernel updates. To turn on audio. (Please keep audio volume low) * On your terminal of choice, as your regular user(no su/root needed) type alsamixer, then hit enter on the keyboard. * from there hit F6 and select rockchip, es8316 * the view will automatically be in playback. Use the right arrow to move to Left Headphone Mixer Left DAC and hit the M key of your keyboard. Do this same action to Right Headphone Mixer Right DAC. * Now slowly bring the volume(if you want to use alsamixer, hit F6 and select (default) to go back to overall volume control to adjust. * **IMPORTANT** do not go past 50 %, the audio starts to distort and just sounds overall bad. Also the performance can get affected where the laptop freezes or an application can crash. Ive experienced browser crash(firefox) and wm session freeze( either screen doesnt move or mouse moves but screen is black). Also to note, your battery will take a hit with using internal audio, at this point im switching to fluxbox to see if running low resource wm can slow down the battery usuage. That is pretty much it for audio on Pb pro. I still have to see what i can try to do until the problem is fixed overall. As a simple bandaid fix, I will be testing if scripting something to start at boot will at least allow me to keep overall levels and selection when the windows manager is started.

    Changing Workout Sets/Reps/Weight ?

    What is your determining factor to increase your sets/reps ? How about with weights, how much would you change and does the sets/reps decrease to adjust to the new weight while gradually increasing ? I was thinking others might share their approach to it.

    As much as i love linux and bsd there will be those that are still pro windows. However if, when the direction microsoft takes is running things in the cloud fully, then that will be a huge problem for those that want to stay in the windows ecosystem but run things locally. This project can definitley take care of those that do not wish linux/BSD and be able to run programs especially since a lot of mainstream programs are windows/mac only. I think wether its bsd/linux/react os. Open source defintley makes it easier to improve things long term.

    Learn Japanese Junkdata 1 year ago 100%
    My trail experience with online tutor

    Im not familiar with what best way works with me so i figured i try the trial run. The lessons consisted of communicating with someone from Japan on a one lesson a week for 4 weeks. Sessons was about 30 min. -Lessons were mostly meet and greet -Learning how to say various forms of nouns in a formal manner. - using follow up questions as in which item -Counting and using different single digit numbers to form large numbers. Its definitley some great feedback to learn as you go with responses from the teacher one in one over a zoom call. - after the trial i was offered to continue through a plan but i stopped as I honestly couldnt afford another expense. If i do continue it id like to see how far self taught goes and maybe learning through a group class of some sort. Mind you after classes i would go over the lessons on my own for about half hour a day. Consistency is pretty much the nature of the beast. I limited to 30 min because if i get to bored im not learning nothing. Do i recommend 1v1 via online tutor, yes(if its in your budget) though find out if they will be giving you work material and the slides or a reference of what was learned in class. Im sure i wasnt given anything since it was a trial. I was typing it as the lesson was going on. Its real good for beginners and good to use to brush up since you are talking to someone who lives the language in that country.

    Buying first bike

    Hello all, I am purchasing my first bike and as I don't have much knowledge of extensive maintenance & insurance I wanted to know what experiences you all had in this. Im hoping to hit these checkmarks. - cruiser - reliable - parts are cheap and available even 3rd party - insurance is reasonable for the bike. - easy to maintain for newbie starting out. I was going to go for a honda but figured to ask others their experience as they were starting out and what they have learned. Under 500 cc I believe is a good starting point, I am not trying to launch into space but if you got a reason why that shouldn't matter let me know.
