Meh, it started really well but got sillier as it went on. I don't understand how the "kids" got away with half the shit they did, surely if they're so unique and valuable, but also have the minds of children you would keep a 24/7 remote watch on them? Why did the super secure armoured lab have a floor level vent that a fully grown man could easily crawl through? Wendy is far too OP, super strong, clever, can control Aliens AND synthetics AND computers. I liked the eyeball squid tho, that thing was freaky.

    This is libertarian bullshit. In the UK we have had annual safety inspections for decades. It's called an MOT. They check to make sure your car is safe to drive, and as it's your car, you have to pay to fix it if it's faulty. If you fail your MOT then your mandatory insurance is void and you will face legal repercussions if you're caught driving without insurance. Cars are fucking dangerous enough with out having faulty brakes or bad wheel bearings or whatever, and of course you have to use approved parts because it's safer. I've been to states many times and I've always been bemused by some of the absolute shitheaps that you see getting driven around, doors falling off, no bonnet/hood, no fucking brake lights, bald tyres. You would not be able to drive that shit over here because cars like that are death traps. Tbh it's about time the US caught up on this shit. It's not about coercing people into buying new cars, it's to stop people getting needlessly hurt and property getting destoyed.

    Help out a noob? Garuda Dr460nized (lemmy.world)
     

    Hi, brand new linux noob and am having issues right off the bat.

    I've just installed Garuda Dr460nized edition on my Legion laptop, fresh install (no dual boot), run the updater, installed a few apps and first thing I see is a little warning that tells me I need to merge pacdiff files and the file affected is mirrorlist.pacnew.

    Do a little reading, get the general gist of what I'm supposed to do, then use the distro bundled software (Kompare) to merge all differences, save, reboot. BUT, the warning it still there, and now, when I go back into kompare, it tells me the two files are identical, plus there seem to be a bunch a graphical bugs now that weren't there before I merged the files.

    Very confused as to why this file, which just seems to be a list of various website mirrors, would cause graphical issues but like I said, I'm brand new to this, but determined to learn from my mistakes.

    Can anyone explain what I've done wrong? I can't seem to undo the changes now.
