Daisy's Destruction is an urban legend. There's literally no evidence the actual video exists. At most people claim they've seen a trailer, but there's no actual evidence that exists either, and even if it does, there's no reason to believe it's part of a longer video, and even if it is, there's no way to know what that video might contain.

#define __NR_mmap                9


this is probably my favorite syscall of all time. we could spend weeks discussing this alone. it is extremely powerful, versatile, and widely used. not to mention, it's one of the (somewhat) rare six argument syscalls. some potential points of discussion:
> the addr argument, and its use without flags, with MAP_FIXED, and with MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE
> file-backed vs anonymous mappings
> the concept of pages, page sizing, and alignment
> guard pages and PROT_NONE
> the actual meaning of SIGSEGV, and how there's more to segfaults than simply process crashes
> core dumps and stack traces
> other related signals, such as SIGBUS
> MAP_GROWSDOWN and the stack
> the use of mmap (as opposed to brk) for allocation via the *alloc family

>>107852108
that's why i feel gross defending it, it's an awful company even if you can wrangle the browser into being the least shit option

I've used it for years only recently swapped to librewolf on pc and ironfox on mobile. It just works and I'll be honest I'm such a poor fag I enable the ads so I can get my 10p a month in BAT. But I got rid of it since on phone it moved the URL bar to the bottom and you have to select edit URL instead of just clicking it and I heard the company is gonna charge for a browser and I'd prefer to use a full foss browser. Some of the out of the box settings for librewolf and ironfox are a little OTT for the average user but after some tweaks they are fine. Most normies just use chrome or even the Google app on their phone they don't even know what a browser is I told my mate to use another browser to stop ads and have more privacy and he said he just likes Google so he thinks a browser is a search engine.

Just be glad normies are kinda healing. Before id watch normies i know use google chrome and see 75% of every website filled with ads. Such an eyesore even if its not my machine im looking at. Now that theyre using brave thats not the case, just a clean webpage with only the contents loaded and no ads bloating up the screen. Im happy for them

you underestimate how most people use their phones. when removable batteries were around, most people never changed them when they wore out, they just got a new phone. when sd card slots were around, most people never used them. if there was enough demand for these things then they'd still be available because the profit would outweigh the cost savings, but most people are not autistic tech dweebs

Hello Linux Questions folks

Chris has installed linux onto my computer and I do not like how it looks..I need it to look like my windows 7 I had before as this new setup is too confusing and unfamiliar....I liked the windows menu as I found it very convenient helpful and familiar. I miss the look the computer used to have with the bright colors and nice sounds ,as this one is too dark and depresses my mood.

I am also having troible finding my programs...I liked the programs I used and cannot figuee out how to get them back. I cannot ask Chris since he is too busy to come visit . Thank you to any kind folks who know how to help!

James.

go to gnome-look.org or other sites like cinnamon-spices.linuxmint.com. Search for "Windows 7" or "Aero" themes for Cinnamon. These will change the window borders, buttons, and taskbar to look like Windows. There are free and usually better alternatives for most common Windows programs (LibreOffice for MS Office, Firefox/Brave for browsing, etc.).

If you need specific Windows software, you might be able to run it using Wine (a compatibility layer), but this can be complex for a beginner. Your grandson Chris really should have helped set this up. And I hate to tell you this, but he's almost certainly getting ass-blacked by gaynigger BBC. Sorry.

Also I'm wrong about the 300 cycle part.
apple's batteries keeps 80% charge at 1000 cycles.
So that matches up with your battery health perfectly.
(assuming that the health % is accurate, and not a number that is calculated purely from the cycle count, 80% of 80% is 64% so technically your battery is slightly better than expected?).

check out filepilot, its like a faster win10 file browser with tabs, fast sorting and searching that actually works, too bad the dev is a yuropoor faggot who loves the win11 "huge padding and corner radius everywhere" aesthetic though.
the only real downside other than that is that it doesnt save your layout preference per folder like windows does so if you set it to display by large thumbnails and then go somewhere and expect it to automatically switch to details, youre not gonna get that. its as good as it gets on windows otherwise

cycle count is how many times the charger charged 100%

from 20% to 70% is 0.5 cycles
twice that is 1 cycle.
so you managed to charge it from 0-100 almost every day for 5 years.

wtf do you even do on it all day?
do you software encode 24/7 on battery?
