Wogi , in OneDrive deleted my files!

I just want you to know that I tried to read this comment, got bored because it got technical, (user problem) and scrolled to the bottom to find the very helpful, important part, in giant letters and bolded. And I appreciate you.

Maggoty , in OneDrive deleted my files!

Oh wow. My one drive has been contained to it’s own file area for ages now. I wish I could remember how I did that.

I did just recently tell Microsoft to kick rocks when they offered to back up my computer though, it wasn’t that was it?

Omgboom , in OneDrive deleted my files!

I only know about OneDrive for business, but you might check the recycle bin in OneDrive online.

Edit also OneDrive changes the folder where your desktop is mapped to, so you might make sure you are CD’ing to the right location

MD =/= PHD

MD = Doctor

PHD = not a doctor.

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doctor_(title)

As a noun yeah it’s more common in the western world to refer to medical doctors. But its origin is that of teachers, not medical practitioners.

Nice bait.

DragonTypeWyvern ,

Is it? Or is it just kinda dumb?

Sidhean ,

I choose to believe no one is this particularly misinformed.

It’s really funny bait, though

PhD is literally “Philosophy Doctor” or “Doctor of Philosophy”

Malgas ,

Also “doctor” means teacher. The specific term for someone who practices medicine is “physician”.

While we’re on this topic, why does “update and shutdown” reboot the PC after updating? Just had this the other day. Was in my bed when I heard the PC running and when I got up to check, lo and behold, the login screen…

I thought that it restarted the pc, finished its whatever and then shut it down.

(Disclaimer: I don’t really use windows, so I’m not super familiar with its latest shenanigans)

Honytawk ,

That is indeed the way it should happen.

Some updates require a restart to finish.

This is what is supposed to happen with that option, in reality there is a very good chance that it just doesn’t shut itself off afterward. Back when I used the OS I would have it set to auto update and since I shut my computer off nightly I didn’t have a problem with it, but I found that it had a fairly good chance that if it updated when I shut it down my computer would still be running when I woke up in the morning. My work around that I put for it is I put a scheduled shutdown in task scheduler for early in the morning when I knew I was never up so if the system had restarted but failed to power itself back off again it would turn itself off.

InFerNo ,

That’s giving me a server error

bleistift2 OP ,

Right, I forgot about that.

It’s a mediocre meme I made to bitch about your point.

blackn1ght , in blahaj

TIL blahaj refers to a soft toy shark sold by IKEA.

mindbleach ,

Would the association with the transgender community be news to you, or is that how you first heard the term?

blackn1ght ,

No that’s new to me too, based off me searching the word and seeing the Wiki article on the toy. I’d seen the word because of one of the instances (blahaj zone), but I literally never see the word outside of Lemmy.

mindbleach ,

Well, heads-up: it’s called that for a reason.

gamma , in Which one???
@gamma@programming.dev avatar

When in doubt, ~/.zshrc. It’s the right choice 99% of the time. Otherwise, there’s a chance you fuck up scripts you’ve installed which assume no shell options have been changed in non-interactive contexts.

itsathursday , in If C++ wore pants

This is so stupid it’s great

BeigeAgenda , in Which one???

What about what I do: Just add . ~/.bash_BeigeAgenda at the bottom of one of the files, for all my own crap.

Psythik , in After a particularly annoying update today

Time to upgrade to a faster NVME (and possibly a better CPU too). Windows updates install so fast on a modern system that they don’t even bother me anymore.

areyouevenreal ,

The solution here isn’t to upgrade your PC for Microsoft’s sake. The solution is to use an OS that actually respects you and your time. Use Linux, or FreeBSD, or even macOS. Alternatively install Gentoo and spend even more time updating, but with spectacular performance and customizability when you’re not updating.
