Yes. Newest version of mint uses pipewire as audio engine, and if you combine that with the good old pulsaudio controller (which works with pipewire via a plugin), you can micro which app input/output goes to which device.

This works more or less out of the box. I think I remember needing to install pulseaudio-pipe or something similarly named, or it might be included by default.

Source: When working with audio I have multiple audio hardware running at once, each with different behavior and associated software.

Does it have to be a new laptop? What you’re describing is basically a used work laptop. I’ve gotten to take my work PCs with me upon leaving, and I use them still. My current work laptop is in fact the work laptop from my previous employer, only with a fresh reinstall (Linux Minr Debian Edition), and it works well.

If you’re able to source a 2nd hand Dell, you’ll probably have what you need. Might need a battery replacement, but that’s easy enough to sort out.

Linux Mint works pretty well out of the box for most installs, so I suggest you give it a try and see if it does what you need.

I can’t speak for the other mods, but I think it’s a reasonable question and see no reason for deletion.

I was thinking the same thing, except a rock. I frequently visit ships as part of my job, and it would be no problem dumping it somewhere it would be likely to remain undisturbed for the rest of eternity. A grain if sand is likely to move with the currents. A rock will not.

Fuck no.

Sure, sometimes I think of the freedom I had in 2008-2010ish with a nice paycheck no responsibilities to speak of, and loads of spare time. But I feel that that span of time was too short to be representative of anything. Before that I was perpetually broke and after that I had to pretend to be an adult.

No sources from me, only uneducated guesswork.

Two events of 1971 stand out to me, as I knew of them beforehand:

• My brother was born. Not relevant to the question at hand (I hope), I just wanted to mention it.
• The oil crisis.

The latter strikes me as probably a big factor. The world was basically using oil for everything (Even more so than now), and an oil shortage (or fear thereof) is likely to send a drastic shock to the system. Manufacturing, logistics, energy, EVERYTHING becomes more expensive, resulting in having to do more with less.

Shortly after the (percieved) shortage, there was an oil glut and overcorrection. I’m not clever enough to say what effect this would have in exact terms, but I highly doubt that an already turbulent world economy did well because of it.

I stay up to date by choosing a date from 20-30 years ago. T-shirt and jeans for ever!

I lived to Brno for close to two years. Didn’t see a single cheque/check while there. I think they’re mutually exclusive with Czechs.

And on the off-chance that port 22 is blocked, you could always spin up sshd on a different port. Hell, if you’re not hosting www content, you could have sshd listen on ports 80 or 443, and no sane employer blocks those ports outright.

I can’t be arsed going into detail, but I’ll give you a half-answer to get you started: “Negative integration”. It basically means that ones identity is based on who you aren’t as opposed to who you are. Ramp this up to 11, and you further this negative integration into defining who ones enemies are, and that’s a core tenet of how fascism takes root.

I started from scratch. The only thing I wish I could take with me were the filters and blocks I’d set up in Voyager.

I went this path: lemmy.ml -> feddit.nl -> sh.itjust.works

I played it last in 2022, and I would say it’s more WW1, at least from what I remember. Maybe 1920s, considering the improved tanks and trucks.

Do I remember correctly that Pepe dies in the comic because the author didn’t want to keep producing material for them to hijack?

Depends how much I care about the end result and how knowledgeable I am with the topic.

Computers: No paralysis at all - I am picky and I can easily filter out most options.

Curtains: Get it over with and pick something with a reasonably average price so I can leave as quickly as possible.

I remember chuckling to videos of drumptards dancing to RATM during the Floyd protests and covid. It was obvious that their only takeaway was “fuck you, I won’t do what you tell me”

Fun game, I’ve been meaning to get back into it for a while, I just never found the time.
