Is there any way to turn my Linux machine into a docking station?

The thing is like this: I have a windows laptop I use for work, and a Linux desktop machine. I have a single screen keyboard etc. and I switch between the two using a docking station. But, I wonder if there is a way for me to “cut the middle man” and just plug/unplug my linux machine....

Bro, go to as many concerts and gigs as you can. Take a single mate, its crazy watching how many random interactions take place.

Dont be scared to move around and chat to people. No one cares if you are trying to find a new viewing spot and its a great convo starter. I wish I went to more when I was younger.

But number 1 rule, earplugs

Gbagginsthe3rd ,

Nah, I didnt explain myself well. You arent going just to chat to attractive people. I just see plenty of organic interactions whenever I go to a concert. You def have to enjoy the music and have a good time. Any social situation can be creepy or non creepy, the individual needs social awareness to understand the difference. I dont talk to people while the music is playing but inbetween songs or sets you can simply comment that was awesome. I agree with you about festivals, downtime is good to chat and chill

Bhahaha

Gbagginsthe3rd ,

As someone wanting to share large files, what is your suggestion?

Gbagginsthe3rd ,

100% that someone has tasted/drunk/chewed whale milk. In fact I don’t think there would be many species that haven’t been milk tasted by a human at this point

Yay, also means through AUKUS that we are America’s little bitch. Lets hope Taiwan stays just friends with China.

Otherwise whoops, I guess all those military bases in Australia that the Americans use will become priority targets. Next minute I’m forced to hunt CCP tunnels in Taiwan wondering if I’m gonna be Vietconged

I moved over after the Reddit API with third party apps thing. Needed to voice my opinion with action

Lemmy is great, I spend way less time with it, it’s a nicer and generally more respectful community, and I’ve learnt a lot more about computers/OSS.

I realised that all my time with Reddit wasn’t actually teaching me anything valuable. I’m now more conscious of my internet usage

Are we all fucked?

I’m worried for the world. All I’ve been thinking about is WW3 and this shit makes me want to vomit. I can’t even smoke weed anymore without having a near panic attack. I feel unmotivated. I wake up and immediately just want to go back to bed. I’m not trying to spread fear but the Doomsday clock is 90 seconds till...

Gbagginsthe3rd ,

Yeah cant believe I had to scroll this far down.

Weed is like putting a sticker over the check engine light. It hides the issue/anxiety temporarily but by doing that consistently without dealing with the underlying issues the problem only gets worse.

Something I do every work day is go to a patch of grass, put on calming music and just stare at the sky and clouds. Let your mind wander, it may bring up bad thoughts and feelings but its better to understand how your mind works. Dont look at your phone either, just disconnect and watch the world go by.

I often think about early humans and their lives. Previously our ancestors had time to reflect and process thoughts, feelings and emotions. That is lost in our technological world and our obsession with consumption and distraction.

These exposures and patterns are relatively new to the human mind. Develop behaviours that allow you to cope with the external stimulus

Depends, do you like the job ? Is it worth the effort in changing the dynamic?

Gbagginsthe3rd ,

Noooooooo

I was so excited for another Tron movie.

Gbagginsthe3rd ,

Id actually be more forgiving if that was all they did. Except that wasnt enough, so they created a huge disinformation campaign and actively lobbied against meaningful change.

They have divided their opposition so effectively that we are at the point where levers on our life support systems are being pushed and pulled while our most informed scientists dont know where or when the next catastrophic shift occurs.

Buckle up, its gonna be an eventful 1000yrs

Gbagginsthe3rd ,

Not sure your concerns. I think its a great take on the situation. If anyone is offended by it then they hold strong beliefs and a weak/ inflexible mindset

Gbagginsthe3rd ,

Comprehensive answer and well explained. You have thought about this at a deeper level and appreciate your viewpoint

Gbagginsthe3rd ,

I always questioned why he went back to Russia. I thought he could have done so much more outside of a Russian prison. Intentionally in the middle of nowhere, cut off from his supporters and fellow Russians

But he loved his country and held steadfast in his principles. He is a greater man than many. Could you trust yourself on how you would act when tested the way he was.

Gbagginsthe3rd ,

You forgot to include that because of bad politics we now rely on corporations to help…

Some one has to make money to help the poor!

"Korea Is the World's Most Depressing Country"…an honest travelogue of a famous American writer (www.mk.co.kr)

Mark Manson, an American bestselling author and famous YouTuber, has made headlines by posting a video that he “traveled to the world’s most depressing country” after visiting Korea. Manson, a best-selling author who has written famous self-development books such as “The Art of Turning Off Nervousness,” is a YouTube...

Biden "running out" of patience with Bibi as Gaza war hits 100 days (www.axios.com)

As I have repeatedly said… Just because Biden has repeated the US company line of unequivocal support for Israel, etc etc (Because even among democrats it’s political suicide to say anything else). That doesn’t mean that he hasn’t been trying the entire time to get Israel to stop the bullshit. This is more or less a...

Gbagginsthe3rd ,

Bibi is such an odd nickname for a ruthless, genocidal arsehole

Gbagginsthe3rd ,

Very nice, those equatorial stabilisers are great. Was it an expensive setup?

Gbagginsthe3rd ,

Must be hiding in the tunnels underneath! Part time health professionals and Hamas operatives… I think we need bunker busters for hospitals

/s

Gbagginsthe3rd ,

Hahaha that’s hilarious you heard it often but never took them seriously

Gbagginsthe3rd ,

Also why do Americans like mixing sweet and salty. Here in Australia they have brioche buns everywhere now. I hate that crap, if you don’t have normal buns give me two slices of bread instead

Gbagginsthe3rd ,

That is the cost of business for these assholes. Until personal accountability is enforced for corporations, or the fine is large enough to punish any potential savings through intended wrongdoing

Gbagginsthe3rd ,

Why did they buy up everything ? Seemed to fall apart pretty quickly

Why is everything in consumer / American life so fucking shitty now - and companies literally just say 'oh bc profit margins' and we're now expected to swallow that and sympathize?

like I went to taco bell and they didn’t even have napkins out. they had the other stuff just no napkins, I assume because some fucking ghoul noticed people liked taking them for their cars so now we just don’t get napkins! so they can save $100 per quarter rather than provide the barest minimum quality of life features.

Gbagginsthe3rd ,

Simple things are going backwards but in a few hundred years Starbucks is gonna start giving handjobs. So thats kinda nice

Gbagginsthe3rd ,

I thought all cats don’t like drinking water close to their food bowl? Its some instinct that food near water could indicate tainted water. Try moving their water bowl to another area

Gbagginsthe3rd ,

Typical rich person mentality. How easily they forget they don’t create wealth in a vacuum. People are only that rich off the hard work of other people

Gbagginsthe3rd ,

So what have the israelis actually found??

What I saw was a handful of weapons and a laptop. Not some headquarters

Very unconvinced so far. But the fog of war and disinformation is in full swing

Gbagginsthe3rd ,

Dont forget grey gifts and mutual interests!

Gbagginsthe3rd ,

Stop edging me. I can’t keep reading these articles without some sort of punishment for the orange blob

Gbagginsthe3rd ,

They don’t bother being discreet. The rich are only interested in helping the rich.

Elections are the illusion of choice.

You don’t become a political leader without forming many ties to the rich and powerful.

Israel-Hamas War: Piers Morgan vs Bassem Youssef On Palestine's Treatment | An unexpected interview - dark humor and eye opening (www.youtube.com)

Very unexpected interview. Usually I watch these because I like to hear a counter argument to my views. But this interview is fascinating! Such a heartfelt conversation, wrapped up in pain and dark humor

Gbagginsthe3rd OP ,

I should clarify - when I mean hear a ‘counter argument’ I mean listening to right leaning media. I subscribe to Piers Morgan, Sky News etc because although I don’t agree with many of the concepts and viewpoints I need to try and understand their reasoning

Gbagginsthe3rd OP ,

It helps me avoid my own echo chamber.

Its interesting to have my views questioned and critcised. It also helps me understand the reasoning of people I don’t agree with. How they formed their ideas and why they believe their view is superior to mine.

Gbagginsthe3rd ,

Probably different to most people but I remember the first year of Uni summer holidays I spent playing Fable 3… which ended up being the entire 3mth holiday. I realised in real terms I just moved from one part of the cd to another and hadn’t accomplished anything else with my life in that time, no hobbies, friends or shared experiences.

I packed up my Xbox and refused to play another game for about 10yrs. Now I have a much better balance with games and my life

Gbagginsthe3rd ,

Looks like NSW and Tasmania are already no. One more state to vote no and it’s over

Gbagginsthe3rd ,

Imagine being the model. Alright, you look amazing. Now drop your pants and pretend to take a shit. Yeah thats it, just a hundred more photos in different lighting. Perfect, thats the one we upload to the internet

Gbagginsthe3rd ,

Just a shame we don’t have great emission standards to begin with. Apparently we use the cheap and dirty fuel of the world. Gotta sell it somewhere!

Shame its connected to thousands of deaths each year

So long... I'll not be returning (lemmy.ml)

I’ve used most available services, but discontinued one after another along with promises that a better user experience will be provided with reduced content and removed functionality with the slight price hike. YouTube was my first and last video service I paid for, only Spotify remains on the borderline.

As a IT dumbass, it seems all the listed options here so far are for Android. Are there any similar apps for IOS?

Is someone tracking the billionaires yachts and jets? Might need to see where they have their bunkers and hideouts

Star Trek and The Orville, which is better/worse?

I asked this question sometime ago on The Orville’s subreddit, and surprisingly got mixed responses. I assume most here however, are going to prefer Star Trek, specifically TNG that its aping from. For the record I do prefer TNG as well, but rewatching The Orville, after you get past its kinda sucky first season, I really...

Gbagginsthe3rd ,

I really enjoy The Orville, I like Star Trek.

I dunno if its the levity in The Orville but it just feels wholesome. The right balance between science, space and entertainment.

Both are my ideas of utopia. I think thats what draws me into each series separately
