What's your weird talent that you almost never show anyone? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world

That's impressive.

Back in the day there was a TV show called Twin Peaks. On this show one of the actresses did this with a cherry stem. Later on Saturday Night Live, they spoofed this with one of the comedians trying a bow, like you would get on a Christmas package. Cracked me up.

    How come we don't hear more about gene editing? Would that not prevent numerous diseases or disablements? Or are they making breakthroughs but it just isn't news worthy? in c/askscience@lemmy.world

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but generally it's not one gene one trait. So altering genes to, say eliminate a specific type of birth defect, might also eliminate something else. Making this up, but say, sense of taste or maybe resistance to some other illness. This change will now be in the gene make-up and therefore propagate through future generations. Since they interact in complex ways, it can be challenging or even dangerous to make these adjustments.

    Where should I install my m.2 drives? (lemmy.world)
     

    I plan to have two m.2 drives. One with Windows, one with Linux. I'm hoping to only use Linux, but I've had issues in the past trying to switch to Linux. Either way, I think I would prefer to have the Linux drive in the 'primary' slot.

    I am running an AMD CPU AM5 processor, which has 24 PCIe5 lanes, but both of the drives are actually PCIe4. The motherboard has three m.2 sockets. The first one is Gen 5, the second one is Gen 4 and the third one is Gen 4 but shares with a Gen 4 PCIe4 slot I do not intend to use, so I'm cool using it for a drive, but it does go through the chip set.

    So I figured I would put the Linux drive in the second slot and the windows drive in the third slot. But because Windows is an actual operating system (go with me in that one). I thought maybe it should maybe NOT go through the chipset but instead be in slot 2 and the Linux drive should be in slot one. Slot one should be backwards compatible and since it has 24 lanes, it shouldn't affect the GPU, right?

    So which configuration should I use?

    Thank you in advance. I hope to get feedback before Lemmy deletes this, which they always do. Never knew how to use Reddit either.

    Can I dual boot windows and Linux? (lemmy.world)
     

    Ideally, I would prefer to dual boot ( two different drives if necessary) Windows 11 and Linux Mint. From what I understand, the crap Microsoft is pulling now will prevent this. Is it because of bitlocker?

    Either way, another option would be to dual boot windows 10 and Linux mint. I would keep Windows 10 offline, which is why I would prefer to dual boot Windows 11, since it and Linux would both be online.

    So are either of these scenarios realistic?

    I'd like to get answers before my post is deleted. So thank you in advance.
