Dharma Curious (he/him)

Thought the same thing when I saw the headline the first time. Augmented smallpox virus to finish off the Ukrainians escaped containment is my guess.

Let me get moved to Texas before we do that, please!

Not with a 10 foot pole, handles and help.

Honestly, this would be a really cool way to build Cobb houses, which are very environmentally friendly, have fantastic insulation, and are some of our oldest still standing structures, iirc. Good hat and boots (roof with overhang and foundation), 3d printed Cobb walls, and a lime coating, and I could see this really making housing costs a lot lower in certain communities.

Biggest downside to Cobb from my research is just that electrical and plumbing typically needs to be running conduit on top of the wall, instead of inside the wall, if you want the option to upgrade or change it later.

Are you able to do it without dual booting? I was under the impression that apple silicone macs required dual booting for asahi

With the older Macs, do you have to dual boot like you do with the apple silicon Macs?

I’m pretty conditioned to long stretches awake (about 35 hours is my max before I am effectively drunk). If I’m driving or something, I try to nap at least an hour or so after 18-20 hours awake.

It was a nice drive, though. 20ish hours one way, if I didn’t stop at all, which of course I did, and made several detours haha

Recently did a 40 hour round trip drive, and I used that trick. Shaved 3 hours off the trip each way by adding random stops

So, for the first time in sooooo long, I’m down to a single laptop (an M1 air), and it’s my dedicate “no tinker” device I use for school. It’s also my first ever apple device, and I sort of hate how much I love it. I still prefer Fedora, but I prefer the Mac to Windows.

When I can finally get a second device I can tinker with again, I was debating getting an old Mac and installing Linux, but I only have experience with Linux via old windows machines. I know Linux on Macbooks is a thing, but is it more difficult/less preferable to Linux on a Windows machine for someone who isn’t particularly techy?

I had a fantastic mental image of a blubbery planet, so we both got a good chuckle from this

So the fat side will be very, very cold

Well, that’s why it has all that blubber! To keep it warm.
