This Windows 11 Start menu change is now coming to Windows 10
  • I installed mint recently and I kept the windows partition because I thought I would need to dual boot a lot but I haven't launched windows in the past couple of months

    I have a laser HP all-in-onr that I thought I'd have issues with but it worked automatically with the printing and scanner app, not even in windows it works so strangely

    My only issue right now were self inflicting, because I created a shared NTFS partition to keep media a torrents and it sometimes give privilege errors after a bit update (it wouldn't happen if it was ext3 from what I've been reading)

    My wife needs to use the computer occasionally and I think she had more issues with windows 11 than mint, the only "issue" was that she was trying to find Microsoft word instead of openoffice

  • Chaos!
  • My closest bus stop is 1.5 miles away and the bus runs every hour (or so they claim)

    The city added some sort of public "uber" that you can hail and ride for I think $2 but it only works within city limits and my wife has many friends in the neighboring cities so it was useless if she wanted to meet them, and also sometimes it'd take more than an hour for a pick up

  • What’s your “I can’t believe other people don’t do this” hack?
  • During my first trip to Japan I was reluctant to use it.

    My manager was traveling with me and he bought one to take home and he already had one from a previous trip and he kept talking about how life changing it was

    I finally decided to use the bidet on my last day of the trip and it was a life changer. I had to go back to Japan a month later and I got a nice Toshiba that unfortunately died early this year but now you can find bidets easily on Amazon or Costco

  • Burning Up
  • 0F is not ocean freezing, is the freezing temp of a brine mix that he chose arbitrarily (some think that he chose that temp because it was close to the coldest his town had ever been and he used it to calibrate the scales of his thermometers)

    FYI, the ocean freezes at around 28F

  • Burning Up
  • The 0 in Fahrenheit was based on nothing and the 100F was supposed to be human temperature but it is off by some degrees

    The water is not an arbitrary temperature, the weather is water dependant, at 0C the water will freeze and you get snow/ice instead of rain
