Computers / Re: Windows 11 S**ks

I know that Secure Boot in UEFI can be problematic for Linux.  Are there new trix in UEFI for Win11 that need to be disabled?

I don't remember, and any info I might provide would certainly be stale.

IIRC, The same things that you have to do to get Win11 run on older machines is the same thing you have to do to achieve dual-boot. Now, I would install Win first, on it's own physical drive, then Mint on it's own physical drive, with the Mint drive as primary and dual boot out of grub in the final config.... Never got win11 to see the Linux drive.

I achieved that with win11 too, but the FUD at the time was that win11 will not accept updates in that state - I assumed that to be FUD, because it was updating fine running bandit on old processors. But the FUD was eternal (undenied) and I got itchy about that... And I hated living in Win11, so I eventually went back to Win10. I am still not sure if setting up a bandit win11 causes actual updating and security issues.

Full disclaimer: This is a Windows house btw. I love Linux - Particularly BSD/Ubuntu/Mint, but I have to stay up to date on the tech side, and that means Windows and MS Office I currently have no standing Linux installations, and only my two test bench boxes dual-boot... Both of those are Win10/Mint.

What we need to do with cows who fart methane is eat them. Voila, problem solved.

   I agree @LMAO but Trump is selling re-runs.  He campaigned on this $hit 8 years ago and he was in charge half that time.  Obviously, I can't give him the benefit of the doubt here.

Agree

He is running on a deportation platform that he promised back in 2016

But Biden’s bumbling and bleep ups have now ushered in a migrant crisis. It was candidate Biden that said he would encourage migrants to “surge the border”

Trump should be asking why Ted Kennedy didn't get charged by a New York DA when he gave a payout to the Kopechne family.

Exactly.  I can understand putting down a dog for killing chickens when growing up in farm country. My dad put down a dog for doing the same, though he didn't shoot it.   But recording it in a book that you were hoping would launch your national political career was stupid beyond belief.     Did her editor or proof readers, maybe even family and friends reading the pre-published transcript not say, " wait honey, ya better not put that in the book".

Agreed, and as one would expect, she's lost any chance for a higher office.

I like Youngkin.

That would be a 26-vote swing for the GOP to land Virginia.

It would be prudent for Trump to choose someone from a State like Virginia, Michigan, Wisconsin, New Mexico, or Arizona.

I like Youngkin.

Africa  and similar countries had the lowest covid rates because their population is very thin and sixty percent of Africa's 1.25 billion people are under age 25—the youngest population in the world

Japan (inventor of ivermectin) has the second oldest mean population (50) in the world, yet their death rate was one-sixth that of the US.  Do you think their chosen policy of using ivermectin to treat Covid cases may have had something to do with their low rate of fatalities, especially considering the median age of their population?  Or do you simply making a habit of spouting out the first thing that pops up in your head without thinking?

Ultrasound techs don't do cancer diagnoses.  They are not doctors.

Yep


Those of us who are registered nurses can’t even diagnose. But we can read back a Dr.’s  diagnosis  to a pt and explain it to them
