Pedo kind of makes sense to me. The Spanish double r is an alveolar trill, which is very similar to the alveolar tap, which is expressed in English as the letter d between vowels (like in "butter"). Therefore rr=d I guess. But I have zero idea about madera. In Spain madero is a pejoritive for police, but I have no idea why the cops themselves would use it, and I'd have a hard time believing google translate spit that out before literally any other word

    I'm not knowledgeable on the subject at all, but Wikipedia says most crude oil is composed of decayed plankton and algae. I'm guessing the mountains were never completely underwater, therefore no plankton. But its also probably too hard to expensive to drill there as well

    Pretty much the same experience here. During my first week of full-time Linux I managed to break KDE Plasma with a widget IIRC and AI was able to tell me which file in .config I needed to delete to restore to default.

    Hi all,

    So recently my immediate family had expressed interest in getting some kind of photo share platform for us to share vacation photos more easily. We've done a Dropbox with extended family years ago, but that sucked to hard that it even managed to put my non-techy family off of doing that again.

    So what are some ideas you all can think of? I've seen Immich mentioned around here before, but I've honestly never set up even a real homelab or sever before, so that's a bit daunting. Their google photos-esque UI is a bit plus as everyone but me uses that.

    It wouldn't need to be open to the internet, local WiFi would work as well really just need to be able to share photos between our phones more easily once we get back from a trip. I've got an older laptop with like 8GB RAM that I could run the server off of.

    Sorry if this is really vague. I've just been given instructions to "find out what's out there" by my non-techy family and I figured you all here would have a better idea of my options. Thanks!

     

    Finally managed to get my hands on my dream guitar. Upgrading from a 7 to an 8 string is a bit weird but easier than a 6 to a 7. Some specs for those interested:

    • Skeversen Shoggie 8
    • 26-28" 5-piece pau ferro & wenge neck, flame maple fretboard
    • European ash body, flame maple top wood
    • Bare Knuckle Juggernaut in the Bridge, BKP Cold Sweat in the Neck
    • Skervesen's "World Domination Mod" AKA coil split and "acoustic" switch
     

    I've been looking to upgrade to something like 64gb of RAM however I'm still using DDR4. So future-proofing to a new motherboard and CPU with DDR5 sounds like a logical plan. However I'm not even sure if that would be worth it. I figure you guys would have a better idea of what I should look at upgrading.

    CPU: Intel i7-8700k

    Motherboard: ASRock Z390

    RAM: 16gb DDR4 3200mhz

    GPU: RX 6700XT

    Let me know if I'm missing any specs, it's been years since I last looked at my hardware.
