  • If they came from Asia to the Caribbean via the Pacific, how did they traverse North America? If they came via the Atlantic, how did they traverse Europe, the Mediterranean, or Africa?

  • For the dudes here... What "girl" song you secretly love?
  • Every so often I listen to Lady Gaga. I really like a few of her earlier songs but haven't listened to most of her discography.

    I hate that music and gender are somehow connected, but unfortunately that's the world we live in. Anyone who gives me crap for listening to/doing/etc. "girly" things is a person I don't want in my life.

  • Error when loading Ubuntu live USB
    • I tried a different USB with a fresh download and got the same error.
    • I'll try a different distro :+1:
    • I'm not logged in when I get the error in the photo. That's what ends up coming up as the live USB boots. It won't even load into live mode. The only time I was able to get that working at all was with safe graphics mode but it failed to even start the install
  • Error when loading Ubuntu live USB

    I've been trying to boot a Ubuntu 24.04 USB (please no discussion of distro choice) but I keep getting a very unhelpful error during the initial startup. I've tried using a different USB drive, a different USB port, booting from UEFI. The only thing that has made a change was booting into safe graphics mode. It got to the install wizard but when I got to the end of the wizard it gave me other seemingly useless error messages.

    I'm concerned there's an issue with my motherboard but I don't have strong evidence to support this idea. I recently took a trip where the computer was fine before I left. I turned it off while I was away and when I came back my main drive no longer worked. I couldn't boot from it or even see the drive in gparted. I've replaced the drive without issue though. If my motherboard is somehow going bad, it's being very subtle about it. I was ready to blame Nvidia but when I got it into safe graphics mode, it didn't get to the point of having Nvidia drivers.

    Does anyone have any idea what might be going on or any way I can get additional information about the errors I'm getting? The lack of information is really frustrating.

    If someone were to call you a "full stack" developer, would that feel like a complement or an insult?
  • It depends on the context, who is saying it and why. If my manager is trying to say that after I've made it clear that I'm not interested in frontend development then it's insulting. Mostly because my manager isn't listening to me.

  • "prompt engineering"
  • I once asked ChatGPT to generate some random numerical passwords as I was curious about its capabilities to generate random data. It told me that it couldn't. I asked why it couldn't (I knew why it was resisting but I wanted to see its response) and it promptly gave me a bunch of random numerical passwords.
