I do this every day and the only problems I have is that it throws off Windows' system clock (requiring a manual re-sync) and I have to re-pair my bluetooth headphones every time

This, also more "Oh, you like [POPULAR BAND]? Personally, I think they're overrated, I mean their production is decent but so cold and sterile, you know? [BAND NOBODY'S HEARD OF] is way better.

So absurd. My i5-6600K apparently didn't make the cut either. Sure it's almost 10 years old now but it runs W10 just fine. Thank god for Linux Mint.

Yeah it makes me want to go out and get a cake. For about 30 seconds before I think about the logistics of actually getting a cake, having to pay for it myself, then eating like 2 pieces before I start feeling sick and overloaded on sugar and just leave the rest in the fridge until it goes stale.

I had horrible eyesight and was shockingly inept at all sportball games, even compared to other hopeless nerds, so I found it slightly less awful than the stuff we usually did.

What's (are) the funniest/stupidest way(s) you've broken your linux setup? by ethanolparty in c/linux@lemmy.ml

[-] ethanolparty@lemmy.ml 4 points 8 months ago

A few years ago I was having obscure audio problems on Ubuntu so I tried replacing pulseaudio with pipewire. I was feeling pretty cocky with using the package manager so I tried

sudo apt install pipewire

Installed successfully, realized nothing changed, figured maybe I had to get rid of pulseaudio to make it stick.

sudo apt remove pulseaudio

Just two commands. Instant black screen, PC reboots into the terminal interface. No GUI. Rebooting again just brings me back to the terminal.

I fixed it eventually, but I'm really not very computer literate despite using Linux, so I was sweating bullets for a minute that I might have bricked it irreversibly or something.
