My experience is very dated, but I bought a used windows Asus laptop in 2013 and put Ubuntu on it and experienced no problems. I had been using Linux for a long time, so maybe I remember this with rose glasses, but it was very straight forward. Also an integrated GPU, but of the 2013 era. I think the laptop was a 2012 model.
Config isn’t hard, it just takes time 🙂
You and @[email protected] really summed up my concerns and knowledge gaps succinctly! Don’t want to frac, but don’t want to miss an opportunity, either. Hard to beat pumped, tho. When applicable.
This looks incredible! Never heard of a Frasier. I am going to have to bounce off your idea and incorporate green chiles a la New Mexico.
You could bake some bread with them. Rice. Bread pudding. The tea is a good idea. So many sweet and savory options! But this is a flavor I enjoy.
Ya, usually liquids are compressed with air for any useful stored use. Otherwise something must continually pump. Maybe they are putting a large bladder into the ground?
The article doesn’t discuss how they pressurize water. Conventional pumped storage uses gravity,the water isn’t actually pressurized itself. Plus the whole liquid thing. But otherwise, neat!
😬 sometimes closings are good. My limited time in Charlotte showed me a lot of sprawl. Sorry to hear it is growing out instead of up.
I don’t think I’ve ever been there, but my mom lived outside of Lumberton for a bit and I visited a couple of times. I flew into Charlotte in 2023, probably the last time I was close.
Too bad it closed. I was in the Ashe and Watauga county area of NC. Visited folks in 23, changes there as I imagine you are seeing.
If you want to share, where in the Carolinas? I lived in NW North Carolina for 10 years but only ever saw pimiento grilled cheese. No okra, either. Too short of a growing season, so it just didn’t exist in restaurants. There was livermush.
There were places that I think could have served this, and I would have tried it! Looks good for something to share. I don’t think I have had pimiento cheese since.
Looks tasty! This inspires me to try this as a beans and brassica dish since I have she different options in stock right now. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks! Currently I am using Mint, and it looks like secure boot is disabled.
Thanks for your replies ❤️
Maybe, but what about units supplied by a Linux builder? My last computer was a windows machine I installed Linux on, but that was before this I think. It shipped with windows 7.
I definitely have UEFI, not sure about secure boot.
Not sure, I have a computer from a Linux builder but it still has UEFI. I am trying to figure out where I stand on this.
How would we know if this will affect us? I have been running Linux distros for 20 years and didn’t know Microsoft was involved at any level in firmware.
Ya I am checking some more out. I really like the sax and the overall vibe.
This looks very different than the inky caps I know (and eat). Different genus, too. Are these edible? The Genus I know is Coprinus. Not sire about parasoles.
Wow that was really great! The radio market I lived in when this would have been current probably wouldn’t have played this so I am happy to have heard it now. It says alt rock on the description, if so, it adds a lot more depth to that genre when compared to the big bands of the time I knew of and no longer listen to very much.
Funny, the last Radio Shack I visited and bought something from was in Livingston.
