why risk damage when you could use something wooden or plastic and just not risk it at all?

Because fuck it.

In all seriousness, my toothpicks didn’t fit the last time I tried so I just grabbed a needle and has worked fine for me, just be a bit careful

The port should detect shorts and stop working, atleast on waterproof phones

Even without years of experience, gimp is unintuitive, the affinity suite is so much easier to use

The boot entry was indeed messed up! Managed to fix it from a live usb

This ended up being the issue! Booted up a live USB, mounted the disk and ran

sudo efibootmgr --create --disk /dev/sda --part 1 --label “Fedora” --loader ‘\EFI\fedora\shimx64.efi’

After rebooting it worked again!

Now to never plug a windows drive into that PC again…

Nope, there is only one sata slot. It should be there, but at this point nothing surprises me anymore. I’m just as confused as you are

I can’t select Linux in the boot options, that’s the problem

Is the boot record stored on the drive or on the laptop? If the former, it should be okay but I’ll check regardless. If the latter, maybe it got wiped by Windows?

Yeah that’s something I can try. I suspect that it is indeed Windows that’s causing issues, but not quite sure how yet. I’ll disable fast startup and see if it makes a difference

The drive is fine, as I can boot from it from my desktop. I’m gonna try booting from a liveusb, maybe it can tell me more

Fair enough, although I don’t really remember having an issue with linux either, atleast for the last couple of years. Apart from getting my nvidia gpu to work properly on my laptop, but that’s jank on windows aswell. Not everyone has issues on either, but I use windows at work and fedora at home and I notice way more jank on windows personally

Most people are so used to the windows bullshit that they don’t even recognise it anymore, Linux (especially fedora) has been much more stable for me.

Also, the problem is always nvidia

Hahaha, I just rip my music from deezer in flac, I just make a playlist in deezer and every ones in a while I sync that locally. Would be cool to be able to do that without deezer, but I doubt I can get it to work like a streaming service

Oof, I have 2tb of storage in my pc right now lol. I’ll keep ripping my music manually as I’m quite particular with the music I download anyways

As a bonus sonarr and Radarr have a calendar page so you can see when the stuff you want is expected to air in the future.

Dude that’s a killer feature. Right now I just use the qbittorrent built in search function, which works fine to be honest. But having it automated (with automated renaming of files?) Would be so much better, although I might need more storage then

Man I really need to get into sonarr and radarr

You can’t just scale game prices linearly with inflation, sure costs of development have increased, not just because of inflation but also because games are much more complex now. But the gaming market has grown a lot and games are infinitely reproducible so that hugely increases profits.

I don’t know how much we should pay for games, but just comparing it to inflation is useless

Inkscape sure, but gimp is no comparison for photo. Also Publisher is really good

Seems like a pretty valid justification?

Don’t forget the mouse feature in the joycons!
