Ok I made a stupid mistake, and the blue screen during the bootup is the secure boot screen on Lenovo devices

Both spacemanspiffy@lemmy.world and voracread@lemmy.world’s answers work, I deleted the leftover files, and ran sudo apt upgrade libmtp because the version I got was out of date

I installed libmtp because I got a “no .source file” error while trying to transfer files

It didnt? I’ve tried it once before, there was no prompt and then the graphics started glitching, so I reinstalled the old one, there was no prompt again, and now the system is saying there’s not nvidia GPU driver

I’ve been cooking some slow recipies that need a lot of heat (a lot of boiling water and slow stewing) under the kitchen fan, and the smell has greatly dissipated, it looks like the smoke was not a really big problem.

I’ve already used this hot plate regularly for about 2-3 months already. If this is burning off some other residue, how can I get the smell to go away faster?

The orange tape bit on the top is actually connected to a light that turns on when the heating coil is on. One of the elements is a power switch, the other is a temperature regulator.

Looking into the wires, I couldn’t find a third wire, so it probably doesn’t have a ground, even though it does have a 3 prong NA design.

Looks the same on the other side, the pattern on the unburnt metal looks like galvanized steel, did the zinc burn off?

I havent played for years, I left right before plains of duviri. I heard there’s now steel soul which is hard mode, and theres parkour 4.0 now? Is there still the massive powercreep problem?

In my old experience, its fun at the lower levels where you don’t know the optimal loadouts yet and playing solo so nobody can optimize the fun out of the game, though the game becomes more toxic as time goes on, you need incredibly specific time locked gear to do endgame stuff.

Grinding is hell, I heard it got even worse, time locked and super rare enemies with <1% drop rates for meta mods or a resource you need thousands of.

Microtransactions are mostly fine, you don’t need to spend any money, just be prepared to grind even more to trade for the super rare stuff in the marketplace.

Point 1: gender is sexual

Gender is a social construct around behavioural and social traits, sexuality is who one is sexually attracted to, I honestly cannot see how you can correlate the two beyond “this gender is usually heterosexual”.

Point 2: children should not make puberty decisions unless they are mature, and to be mature they must go through puberty

If a child is mature enough to go through puberty, then they should be mature enough to make decisions about their puberty.

Why force someone to go through a puberty they hate, and only after they are finished and the changes become irreversible do you allow them to make a decision on how they wish to mature?

I understand this point of view because I used to also hold it, but I’m trying to express to you that forbidding puberty blockers causes the exact same problem, someone uninformed on a subject comes to regret their action (or inaction).

Gender isn’t sexuality.

Do you seriously need someone to explain to you that you can make a decision on one thing and not a decision on another.

Abstractly explain how a child can make a decision on what to eat for dinner but not who they want to have sex with.

Boy wants to be a princess, obviously we should let him have sex.

You’re making a slippery slope argument

Puberty blockers should be allowed, not making a decision is still a decision
