Before this, the only place I have ever heard that slur is from a Pink Floyd song, but until now I could only guess to whom it referred.

They probably used that graphic because Toronto has an actual raccoon problem. I'm not commenting on the "tastefulness" of the graphic

Can I join this club even though I don't have an Air?

You are correct.

Did I detect a hint of cynicism there?

"It's expected to take four to five years to design the future high-speed line. Funds are to be allocated at the end of that time period, so it's possible a future government could modify or cancel the project."

I'm hoping this comes to pass, but I have a small shred of doubt

Huh that's strange because I've never had the driver break on me.

But I guess it means you've successfully installed the new card? Awesome

Might be a bit late of a reply, but I was able to install the Broadcom drivers super easy on my 2013 MBP. I know, different laptop, but same driver.

After installing Manjaro, KDE Neon, and Kubuntu, here's what I did:

I paired it with my phone and shared my internet connection, then downloaded the Broadcom driver in the repo. Done!

I also installed Aurora (Fedora immutable distro) on it, and the Broadcom drivers were already installed, so it just worked, but every time my laptop went to sleep it crashed and I had to hold the power button to start it, so I gave up on that and installed Neon

I've had several machines that refuse to update because of error 0x.

In fact, one of my kids has that happening right now.

At least that part is not isolated to OP. It doesn't happen to me anymore since I switched to Linux about a year ago

The 512KB or the 1MB version of Civ 1?

I really wanted one but couldn't afford it. Then I was able to and did. Then the Elon shit hit the fan, and now I'm stuck with a dick mobile.

I looked at trading it in for a Hyundai Ioniq 5 or something else, but I would be out thousands if I did

Ahhh yes. Good thing it's non-binding

Works every time

 

Hi folks,

I downloaded Aurora (https://getaurora.dev/) the other day with the intention of installing it on my 2013 MacBook Pro.

It wasn't until I got to the install screen when I realized that I have no networking.

I currently have Manjaro installed on this laptop, and I remember having to connect via Bluetooth to my phone to download and the Broadcom BCM4360 drivers.

Is there a good way to bake that into the image prior to installing?

Either that or I can try downloading the driver over Bluetooth again, but then I'll need to use a command to somehow layer it on top of the existing image? (rpm-ostree?)

Sorry if I'm missing some command or documentation, but it is a little more confusing trying out these immutable distros.

Has anyone else out there run into this issue and worked around it?

 

We have a few sites on our intranet at work that I constantly end up searching on Google instead of visiting the site.

If I type in the address bar

https://site.work/customers/12345

it will navigate just fine, but if I just type

site.work/customers/12345

it executes a Google search

Is there any way for me to add a whitelist for a given hostname? I don't want to turn keyword.enabled off.. I only want to turn it off for one site.

 

Since I've abandoned Reddit, I find myself looking for content similar to what I was subscribed to on there.

This looks to be the most active of the Lemmy transplants, so it looks like I'll do my lurking here instead on some other Lemmy community.

As much as a shitshow it's turning out to be over there, I am thankful for Reddit and for having had /r/atheism as a default sub, otherwise it would have taken me a little longer to become atheist
