Horse people of Lemmy- how easily can someone steal a random horse? (several questions)
I’m not experienced with horses. I know many are trained to work for just about anyone. They were used in wars and police still use horses this day and age for crowd control, so I guess they can stomach a bit of violence and chaos. But most domestic animals behave differently with people they’re familiar with vs random...
Considering Gentoo
I have an old iMac that I am planning to install some flavor of Linux on and while I was looking at various distros it occurred to me that it might be a good exercise to install Gentoo on it. Other than a separate machine for documentation and downloading the necessary packages, what else should I have set up to try this? Has...

Can enabling Linux support on anti-cheats such as EAC or Battleye create more cheaters in competitive games?

Is the actor of captain Jean-Luc Picard a smoker?
I recently watched Star Trek: The Next Generation and in Season 1 Episode 11 he gets offered a cigarette and takes it, for me indicating that he would smoke. Even though he coughs after pulling once. is it just to fit in to the character of dixon hill or the actor or is it picard as a character?
Does Mach speed change depending on the altitude?
Since the speed of sound depends on the air, which changes at different altitudes, are “Mach” speeds dependent on the altitude? Or is it basically just like 100 °C is the same even at altitudes where water boils at a lower temperature (in that it is a fixed speed based on the speed of sound at sea level)?

What's an elegant way of automatically backing up the contents of a large drive to multiple smaller drives that add up to the capacity of the large drive?
So I have a nearly full 4 TB hard drive in my server that I want to make an offline backup of. However, the only spare hard drives I have are a few 500 GB and 1 TB ones, so the entire contents will not fit all at once, but I do have enough total space for it. I also only have one USB hard drive dock so I can only plug in one...
