Good morning sir/ma’am I’m here to tell you about our Lord and Savior Linus Torvalds. He sacrificed his wallet to bring you a free and open operating systems. We don’t judge what flavor of Linux you use. As long as you agree that Linus saved us from Bill Gates who stole ancient secrets from the ruins of Xerox Parc and has since embraced the evil that is bloat ware.

Through Linux you can be saved!

Haha, for non-gaming I already have. The main gaming PC has always been Windows ever since trying gaming on Linux over a decade ago. Been having no issues though lately on my laptop I use for travel. So it’s probably time.

The first was simply amazing. Yeah the second got a bit cringey with him just all around perfect and banging everyone. But we do have a flawed narrator so I’m hoping it was something like that. Really just hate that not only will we probably never get the ending but Rothfuss seems to be an ass about it. Even blowing off the charity chapter, and then always being super aggressive/angry when people call him out.

If we get something I’ll read it for sure. But 100% doubt we’ll get an ending as good as the start. Which is probably why Rothfuss is stuck

Save your money and time until it gets finished. (I really don’t think we’ll ever get the ending at this point).

Not worth getting invested in the story where we’ll never see an end

Not a lot of need for the app. But it’s horse crap they’re ALSO removing Bluetooth.

As someone who owns a bunch of their products I’m bummed that it’s another company to not buy from anymore. It’s like every good product gets ruined by a greedy CEO

From Wikipedia: Link The Argand lamp had a sleeve-shaped wick mounted so that air can pass both through the center of the wick and also around the outside of the wick before being drawn into a cylindrical chimney which steadies the flame and improves the flow of air. Early models used ground glass which was sometimes tinted around the wick.

An Argand lamp used whale oil, seal oil, colza, olive oil[2] or other vegetable oil as fuel which was supplied by a gravity feed from a reservoir mounted above the burner.

A disadvantage of the original Argand arrangement was that the oil reservoir needed to be above the level of the burner because the heavy, sticky vegetable oil would not rise far up the wick. This made the lamps top heavy and cast a shadow in one direction away from the lamp’s flame. The Carcel lamp of 1800, which used a clockwork pump to allow the reservoir to sit beneath the burner, and Franchot’s spring-driven Moderator lamp of 1836 avoided these problems.

The same principle was also used for cooking and boiling water due to its ‘affording much the strongest heat without smoke’.[3]
