Yes, casual racism and sexism, but not necessarily in a way you might expect.
For example, in the first book, Casino Royale, there’s the typical setup… here’s your mission in an exotic location, here’s your gear, here’s your beautiful assistant…
“Bond was not amused. ‘What the hell do they want to send me a woman for?’ he said bitterly. ‘Do they think this is a bloody picnic?’”
Bond being a womanizer is no surprise really. I obviously don’t support that kind of behavior, but characters are often more interesting when they are flawed. Even if the flaws were unintentional on the part of the author. (Thanks for the resources btw)
I don’t hate it, but every time now that I get linked to a Reddit post, I look at the comments, and every time I get a little more shocked at the amount of low-value, hateful comments over there compared to here.
In other words, I don’t hate it, but I feel like it hates me.
Nah, when I think whether it was worth it overwriting 10+ years worth of content in Reddit I just look over and see them come up with yet another shit move. It instantly validates getting off that sinking ship.
After fucking up API access they decided to delete all PMs older than 2023, get rid of awards/gold, and add more dark patterns to force people to their garbage apps.
Seems now that they’re gonna add “tipping” as if it was a disgusting instagram clone with ‘content creators’
They’re quickly tearing down everything that made Reddit unique at all. They don’t want a discussion board, they want a tiktok clone or whatever.
No they are not. Birthdays are calculated from the day of birth, hence birthdays. And zygotes are not yet people, no matter what the forced-birthers tell you.
Rolling back the root subvolume with an older kernel could create a mismatch to the boot partitions kernel. Not sure if that’s contributing to your problem, but might be worth looking into.
Yes, I have a separate boot partition. How would I fix a mismatch? The only posible solution I’ve found is to directly edit the grub entries, but that’s a bit beyond what I’ve done with grub before. Thanks for the response!
Only thing I can think of is the subvolumes left over might be causing an issue. I don’t know how snapper performs a rollback and I’ve seen a couple ways to do it. Sometimes its modifying the default subvolume to the snapshot you want to rollback to. This is fine IF your kernel params are NOT specifying the subvol. That would look like this rootflags=subvol=subvolume_name.
Usually I just rename the subvols and make sure the snapshot I’m renaming to replace the current root subvol is not set to read only.
So rename current root to root.broken Then rename snapshot to root Then set readonly prop to false.
I think you’ve hit the nail on the head. The way grub-btrfs works is by changing the default root snapshot subvolume. I’m still not sure what I did wrong to get the rollback stuck to the particular kernel. But I’ll give what you’ve written here a try. Thanks again.
Well, I tried rolling back to another snapshot and checked my kernel params and its not in there. My port issue seems to be fixed but i still do not boot into the new kernel after updating and rebooting. Edit: I think I need to clean up my /boot directory somehow since it’s partition is not btrfs. But I’m unsure how to do it, or where to read up on it.
Well as long as you take a snapshot of your data and move that snapshot to another drive, you’re free to tinker without real worry. Arch Linux wiki should have lots of examples of what you’re trying to fix or modify. There’s always a fresh install as well, which isn’t ideal most of the time but as long as the data is safe, then its an option. Best of luck, hope you’re able to resolve the issue.
Thanks, it’s looking like I’ll be doing a reset. It looks like grub-btrfs creates its own entries and points towards the boot directory within the /.snapshot/ directory, completely ignoring my boot partitions current files.
Ubuntu was never my first choice but was necessary for using my arc380 with plex transcoding. Might as well take this opportunity to move back to debian with bookworm. Only trouble is I would prefer a 6.2 over 6.1 kernel distribution, and while I enjoy arch on my laptops, I’m not sure I’d want to update my server so frequently.
Never thought I’d get emotionally invested and attached to a creature as alien as Rocky. I thoroughly enjoyed in the book and it’s my favorite out of the three Weir books I’ve read.
If I’m reading a book, I normally give it a couple of chapters. If I don’t like the style of writing or the story isn’t engaging, it’s very unlikely that it will get better later on.
If I’m listening to an audiobook, I give it a lot longer because I’m usually doing something else while listening and there’s less effort required to progress.
A recent exception is The Power. I read that until 49% because it was okay. Somewhat interesting but I just didn’t care about the characters and I hated the writing style. I thought I should like it more because it was a bestseller and turned into a TV show. I got around to reading reviews which confirmed that it wasn’t just me who didn’t get it and I’m so glad I stopped. I should’ve dropped it after two chapters.
I enjoyed it, I read the Martian before it got big and turned into a movie. I thought it might be a one hit wonder when Hail Mary came out and was prepared for disappointed but I ended up enjoying it quite a bit.
