It’s funny, I just switched to pulseaudio hoping it would fix some issues I’ve been having with pipewire. It did not.
Edit: I’m not on Mint, though, so best of luck.

Well, not always: Plural ‘they’ is a borrowing from Old Norse ca. 1200 AD, and the earliest attestation of singular ‘they’ is about a century later.
But, yeah, you’d think 700 years of continuous use would be enough to make it uncontroversial…
It seems kind of disingenuous to compare enterprise support contracts for Linux to personal Windows licenses. Especially while also ignoring that you do pay for Windows, it’s just hidden in the cost of the device.
Though it is also true that Linux is gratis and Windows is not.
Huh. TIL that italic emoji are a thing.
…I don’t know why that’s surprising to me, since they’re just Unicode, but it is.
It also helps that Steam sales are nowhere near as good as they used to be. I don’t even remember the last time I saw a 90+% discount, but there was a time when they’d pop up regularly during the winter sale.
But yeah, these days my standard for even considering a purchase is “will I play it right now?”
IMO the early game exploration rush is the best part. Anomalies and archaeological digs give that great Star Trek vibe that kind of goes away once everyone is settled into their borders.
I believe the g palatalizes the n, so it’s more like nyok-key.
Yeah, my mom used to work for an organization called ARC, which pointedly hasn’t been an acronym since the early '90s.
In fairness, the first iteration of that deal was Pepsi for Stolichnaya.
Never underestimate the bandwidth of a station wagon full of hard drives speeding down the highway.
I know this is too late for you, but something like this happened to me recently, so I’m writing for the sake of anyone who might find this thread in the future.
In my case it was because the NixOS installer had booted up in legacy/BIOS mode, so grub was in BIOS mode, and it can’t boot a UEFI OS (e.g. Windows 10) from that state.
In fact I couldn’t get the NixOS installer to boot in EFI mode at all. Odd, as both Windows and other distros work fine. Actual installed NixOS also works, it’s just the installer that fails.
So what I did was to boot a different distro’s live medium (EndeavourOS, but it shouldn’t matter) in EFI mode and did a manual NixOS install from there.
It probably also would have worked to just switch grub to EFI mode in the config, except I had also failed to clock that the new SSD I was installing to had an MBR partition table, so I had to nuke the original install to make it gpt anyway.
tl;dr: osprobe can find OSes on other drives just fine; what it can’t do is find an EFI bootloader while in legacy mode.
This format is especially apropos, as Natalie Portman is one of a handful of actors with an Erdos number.
On the other hand slavery of actual humans is a thing. And at least the first generation of strong AI will effectively be persons whom it is legal to own because our laws are human-centric.
Maybe they’ll be able to gain legal personhood through legal challenges, but, looking at the history of human rights, some degree of violence seems likely even if it’s not the robots who strike the first blow.
I don’t think I’ve ever had it straight, but clamato is pretty good in a michelada.
Never ask:
A woman her age.
A man his salary.
Odo what he did during the Cardassian occupation of Bajor.
Also Dude, “sand person” is not the preferred nomenclature.
