TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name@lemmy.world•When my wife is out of town...
23·9 months agoFactually incorrect. 26 episodes of 40 minutes each gives a total runtime of 17 hours and 20 minutes. Perfectly doable, you even have time for a quick nap and then hammer out some beers with the homies.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Microsoft cracking down people upgrading to Windows 11 on unsupported hardware
2·10 months agoI thought they were dropping the tpm requirement. I even have a W11 iso at work that doesn’t have it, provided by an official Microsoft partner.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Has there ever been a case where a kidnapee was able to brainwash his captors into freeing him/her?
13·1 year agoHe technically didn’t brainwash them into setting him free. He convinced the pirates to double his ransom and to let him walk free around the camp, where he often and loudly told them that he would come back and have them all killed, once his ransom was paid and they let him go. Then he did exactly that.
I don’t really like Gnome as I like to tinker with everything, so I use KDE. I also have a laptop with Cinnamon, which is also pretty good.

Cooking @lemmy.world•[QUESTION] Does non-alcoholic wine work as well as regular wine as an ingredient and pan deglazer?
3·1 year agoI can confirm you can glaze perfectly fine with water. I don’t usually use water, but have done it with a little splash on occasion.
I completely forgot I bought that once during a discount, but didn’t even have it installed. Started using it now, thanks.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What software do you know that uses mythological names for its release (version) codenames?

Once the lawsuit about illegally lending out books is completely settled, I may consider donating again if they focus on their core activity, namely archiving of websites.
I want to support their archiving activities, not their misplaced piracy.

Linux@lemmy.ml•To Linux admins: What certifications/degrees do you guys have?
1·1 year agoDepends a bit where you live, but my guess is on average € 45-50k, with whatever local benefits there are. Which translates to between 3 and 4k a month, depending on whether a 14th month is included. But this can be a lot higher or lower depending on the location.
